@fifthace I think you are mixing up the placement of [nak_google_picasa_albums] and [nak_google_picasa_album_images] . Indeed, make sure to carefully follow the instructions in my earlier reply.
Apologies for the inordinately late response.
The plugin does not add any settings to the Discussion page. As noted in http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-top-commenters/installation/ , The settings are all within the “Simple Top Commenters” widget created under “Appearance” > “Widgets”.
No, unlisted is different from private. “unlisted” is sometimes referred to as “limited, anyone with the link”. See http://support.google.com/picasa/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=39551 . Also, Here is info on accessing unlisted albums through the API: https://developers.google.com/picasa-web/faq#unlisted_albums . If you are interested in adding this feature, I would be willing to help implement it.
The setup is a bit idiosyncratic, but the album hyperlinks work if you follow the steps under Installation.
1. Create a page to show the albums, and on it, place the shortcode [nak_google_picasa_albums] screenshot.
2. Create a page to show the images, and on it place the shortcode [nak_google_picasa_album_images] screenshot.
3. On the settings for Google Picasa Albums Viewer, choose the page you created at step 2. screenshot.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Simple Fields] [Plugin: Simple Fields] Export and ImportI’ve been wondering about this as well. I’ve done some exports / imports using plugin version 0.3.9 from a production site to a stage site, and it hasn’t worked well for me in the past. Fields have gotten mixed up, and I ended up with values in the wrong fields as well as some duplicated fields.
Has export / import been addressed in more recent versions?
Thanks for the reply. Disk space does not seem to be the issue. I am on an unlimited disk space plan with my webhost, and automated backups (run by cron) have completed successfully and ended up with 196MB files.
Hmm, is plugin version 1.2.1 compatible with WordPress 3.1.4 Multisite? I seem to remember a WP compatibility issue, which is why I used an older version.
I can’t upgrade WordPress higher than 3.1.4 for the site in question because of a bug with Simple Fields.
As for this though, I’ve been able to successfully use ZigConnect on WP 3.1.4 in the place of Relations Post Types.
The plugin author (Chris) followed up with me about this to clarify and apologize for any confusion. Also, he offered to update his plugin site to make the situation more clear with a “buy without support” button and a separate “buy with support” button. It seems to be a limitation of Paypal that the ongoing subscription is not indicated as a separate line-item (not any intentional sneakiness). Anyhow, I am quite happy with the plugin and the support.

In reply to: [Plugin: Relation Post Types] how to call data on front end?@curtismchale – awesome. I used your code (slightly modified), and it was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for that.
One thing – the last line (#42) is currently
tan_show_related_content( $post-ID, 'content_type' );
but it should be:
tan_show_related_content( $post->ID, 'content_type' );
right?
Couldn’t have done it without all of your help. Many thanks!
Eureka.
I had written a function in my theme’s functions.php to store the current version of the site I was working on “production”, “stage”, “dev”, or “local”. Not knowing that WordPress core used the variable “$current_site”, I named my custom variable “$current_site”, and it was overwriting the value that should have been there.
I did this as a workaround because the Simple Fields plugin, while awesome, doesn’t support displaying images by title – it requires calling their IDs (which vary from production to stage to dev to local) to display. I wrote a post on the plugin forum about this.
Changing the “$current_site” variable in my theme to “$site_version” resolved the issue.

In reply to: [Simple Fields] how to post in page…Here’s a link with documentation on this (how to display simple field images within a page): http://eskapism.se/code-playground/simple-fields/tips-and-tricks/
Also, the other tutorials on there are helpful for displaying other types of content.
Another HostGator support rep (who seems to be quite a bit more competent) has picked up the ticket. Here’s the info he provided:
“In the file: wp-includes/link-template.php on about line 2168 there is the definition for the function named ‘network_site_url’, which is essentially where the invalid URL gets generated. In that function, there is a line:
$url = $scheme . ‘://’ . $current_site->domain . $current_site->path;
This is where the glitch occurs, as the variable $current_site is completely empty.”
Does that help?
Sounds as though it might be related to http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/17168
However, I’m not sure how to proceed.
Nope. At least not in the database tables I checked in this post. I also did a quick scan through the database for any other fields in the database that contained the domain and didn’t find any.
