In reply to: [Pinterest RSS Widget] Fatal Error on line 61What I mean to say is I think there is something wrong with the feeds rather than with this plugin? Just a theory.

In reply to: [Pinterest RSS Widget] Fatal Error on line 61I can’t get a Pinterest feed to show up anywhere no matter what plugin I use.
Until there’s an option to order the songs in the playlist other than by id number(first added, 1st played) is it safe to go into the database and change the ids to the songs?
I could be completely wrong but don’t you have to be using the HTML5 Doctype declaration (at the very least) in order to use this plugin? Considering it’s the HTML5 jQuery Audio Player… the theme is also not using expected document structure and is tables for layout. I’m not about to start a tables for layout is bad argument as anyone still using it in 2012 and calling themselves a web designer must be a very stubborn individual indeed.
I wrote that this plugin was working to exclude posts from certain categories from showing on the frontpage
But then I went to my WP-E-Commerce Products Page – the Page that has the shortcode [ productspage ] and my Featured Products were getting wiped out.
So I changed the query in frontpage-category-filter.php lines 50 to 56:
if ( $query->is_home AND $query->get('post_type') != 'nav_menu_item' ) { $query->set('category__in', explode(',', $featured_category_id)); //$query->set('posts_per_page', get_option('merlic_filtercategory_postslimit')); } return $query; }TO (edited code):
if ( $query->is_main_query() && $query->is_front_page() && $query->get('post_type') != 'nav_menu_item' ) { $query->set('category__in', explode(',', $featured_category_id)); //$query->set('posts_per_page', get_option('merlic_filtercategory_postslimit')); } return $query; }Which fixed the issue for me.
I got the idea from this post in another forum:

In reply to: [Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced] Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced not workingI’m sorry I read the actual plugin specs a long time ago.
In any case Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced helps me design pages differently because of the additional body classes. If it weren’t for this plugin I’d be stuck with hooking into the page id.
So because of that, it’s been helpful to me on a lot of projects.
My only reason for joining this conversation was because I mistakenly thought this plugin was supposed to be adding additional classes to the body tag for top level category archives and it wasn’t. Now you have cleared up the misunderstanding. Thanks for your work.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced] Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced not workingI misunderstood the description you wrote for the plugin
Enhances the body_class template tag, adding some extra classes to the body (post/page slugs, post categories, and archive parent categories) useful in developing custom themes.
I guess I thought that when you wrote the plugin added extra classes to the body for archive parent categories that meant top level category archives because to me “parent” means top level.
But you can see why someone might confuse what the plugin actually does. I read and re-read the plugin description, turned off the plugin and viewed the source before I wrote anything.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced] Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced not workingYou’re right. I use this plugin a lot and I just noticed that if I view the source of the body tag the classes generated for the body appear to remain the same whether the plugin is activated or not. I’m using WordPress Version 3.4.1
Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced Activated:
<body class=”archive paged category category-video-image category-39 logged-in paged-2 category-paged-2″>Ambrosite Body Class Enhanced De-Activated:
<body class=”archive paged category category-video-image category-39 logged-in paged-2 category-paged-2″>Perhaps we no longer need a plugin to generate extra body classes? Been busy working so I might’ve missed that bulletin…
@pam1234: unless you’re trying to do something really complicated – and given the fact that unique body classes seem to be generating themselves by default, you ought to be able to do what you want even without this plugin. I recently started doing all my development work with Chrome because of its excellent Inspect Element feature. Safari also has this feature. Hope you get it sorted!
It’s weird – my wish seemed like such a simple one!
I wanted to hide 3 or 4 categories from the front page.
In Settings > Reading I selected Front page displays Latest Posts. Then I went about narrowing that selection down…This was the only plugin (out of 5 that I activated – one at a time of course)
as well as various custom filtering codes that I tried adding to my theme’s functions.php which worked for my project.Usually I use a Static Page for the home page of the site then start adding stuff in.
It seems to be easier to set things up that way which is why I do it like that. This time I couldn’t go that route and came up against this odd issue of everything from every category showing on the home page no matter what I tried.Anyway I’m basically saying this plugin works. So if you’re like me and having a hard time getting posts from some categories to stay out of your home page try this plugin. It also didn’t mess up anything else (so far) : ).
I second that. Although you don’t really have to type it all back in again if you skip a required field by mistake. Just click on the input fields and the info you typed previously will be available again. I think the fact that the fields values are not retained is because the entire set of fields was made to clear on error. It should be done on a field by field basis – for max ease of use for users.

In reply to: Fix breadcrumb code to work with custom post typesAh, I wrote too fast. That the code detects custom taxomomies – the post type itself is not honored… so the breadcrumb will crap out if you go to the single post type. I looked first at the archive for the post type – that is why I thought it worked. Sorry, thought I had a good solution there for you for a minute.

In reply to: Fix breadcrumb code to work with custom post typesOf course code that detects custom posts types and taxonomies is better so I found this code by Bill Erickson:wordpress-taxonomy-breadcrumbs and tried it out. I did not include it in functions.php as a separate function – I just added it into my existing breadcrumb code, it works but you’ll have to tweak it to get your delimiter character.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Fix breadcrumb code to work with custom post types(if I’m wrong, Please correct)
You have to add in the custom post type name. For each CPT.
You’d change your code toelseif ( get_post_type() == 'Post Type Name' ) { echo $delimiter; echo get_the_term_list($post->ID, 'Custom Taxonomy Name', ' ', ', ', ' ' . $delimiter . ' '); the_title(); }Where Post Type Name you’d put in the custom post type as you registered it in functions.php. So if you registered a cpt like garden-tools that’s what you’d put. Same goes for the custom taxonomy.
Anyway, I am probably wrong but that is how I got my breadcrumbs working again.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Media Library not displaying mediaFinally getting the go-ahead to move a 4 yr-old site to a “good” server from a Godaddy server,
installed clean WordPress 3.1.3 with no plugins installed or activated,
installed & ran the WordPress importer plugin,
checked ‘download all attachments’ or images. Import stalled out many times but finally imported all post content. Import file was over 5 MB but not over the 10MB limit set by php.ini.Anyway, the attachments were getting uploaded to the new server but they were not showing in Media Library.
Then I installed & activated WP-E-Commerce. Remained bothered by empty Media Library. Deactivated WP-E-Commerce.
Found this post.Followed a suggestion to input the full path to files and input wp-content/uploads in Settings > Media. Media Library still empty.
Installed Hotfix plugin by Mark Jaquith. Media Library is full!!!
Thanks for this thread everybody. I hope it stays active because it really helped me out and no doubt it can help many others.
