For example, I want to manually input HTML code of a list of things, so I have added ul before widget and closing ul after widget, now all I would want to do is in the text widget input the li's but these li's are being automatically wrapped with that div so it would be cool If i could just stop that div appearing completely.</p> <p>I understand if I change the core file...I will have to do it again and again every time i will upgrade wordpress, so wondering is there any simple way of doing this and avoiding to re-change the code once i upgrade my wordpress? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/335474#post-1293228 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 12:20:17 +0000 itchytrig 1293228@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Pretty surprised no integration has appeared to date, but really looking for the following:</p> <p>In your Wordpress Articles, a widget or plugin to list associated products from your Magento store. Perhaps to recognise products based on Wordpress Tags to Magento Product Keywords?</p> <p>Magento uses blocks and includes, so would be great to see WP/Magento working together.</p> <p>Anyone? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/335167#post-1292812 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 00:31:55 +0000 bunnykins 1292812@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Ah I see I read what you said wrong. Any way I do not find where to edit the title of the tag cloud widget because when you use the widget it says no options for this widget.<br /> If it requires you to edit files then it is not built in at least not in my opinion. </p> <p>I was able to find a mod that did both I found random tag cloud to be able to change the widget name and I found hs tag cloud for the tag page.<br /> I do wish both these mods were built in as that would be great. </p> <p>Oops I used the word mods instead of plug in. To me they are the same thing as some scripts call them mods some adons and some plug ins. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/335167#post-1292409 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 18:12:56 +0000 bunnykins 1292409@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>How do you activate the tags page that is built in? </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/335167#post-1292352 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 17:16:42 +0000 Ipstenu 1292352@http://wordpress.org/support/ <blockquote><p>ability to change the tag cloud widget title</p></blockquote> <p>That's built in.</p> <p>The rest ...

I read that WP is set up so it is one or the other -- built-in sidebar or widgetized sidebar.</p> <p>Now that I am running the widgetized sidebar, I'd like to tweak a few settings, such as the space between each widget and the alignment of the top of the sidebar overall. Are the widgetized sidebar settings still governed by settings.php and/or style.css? Or are the settings now elsewhere in a different file?</p> <p>I know this is probably a basic question, so forgive my newbie-hood! :-)</p> <p>Fyi, this is the code from sidebar.php, which makes me think it may no longer be active once widgetized:</p> <pre><code>&lt;div id=&quot;sidebar&quot;&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;?php /* Widgetized sidebar, if you have the plugin installed. */ if ( !function_exists(&#39;dynamic_sidebar&#39;) || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . &#39;/searchform.php&#39;); ?&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;!-- Author information is disabled per default. Uncomment and fill in your details if you want to use it.--&gt; &lt;li class=&quot;calendar&quot;&gt; &lt;?php get_calendar(); ?&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;sidetitle&quot;&gt;Author&lt;/span&gt; &lt;p&gt;A little something about you, the author. Nothing lengthy, just an overview.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;?php wp_list_pages(&#39;title_li=&lt;span class=&quot;sidetitle&quot;&gt;Pages&lt;/span&gt;&#39; ); ?&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;sidetitle&quot;&gt;Archives&lt;/span&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;?php wp_get_archives(&#39;type=monthly&#39;); ?&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;?php wp_list_categories(&#39;show_count=0&amp;title_li=&lt;span class=&quot;sidetitle&quot;&gt;Categories&lt;/span&gt;&#39;); ?&gt; &lt;?php endif; ?&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</code></pre> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/335027#post-1291919 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 07:19:42 +0000 mangosteenguy 1291919@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>The problem has been solved. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/335027#post-1291911 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 06:59:35 +0000 mangosteenguy 1291911@http://wordpress.org/support/ <br /> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/334969#post-1291769 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 02:56:21 +0000 abietto 1291769@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi! I hope this is the right place to ask this.<br /> I would like to add location information in every post. Since I'm in Italy, there should be two sets of information: the Region (Tuscany, Lombardia, etc) and the relative Province (Florence, Milan). I tried with the Multiple Category Selection Widget, but it doesn't seem to be the right choice. The ideal would be a drop-down menu with the Regions and, if I click a Region inside that, all the Provinces in that Region should appear in a second drop-down menu. That widget doesn't seem to work that way. I thought about custom fields ("Region" and "Province" as keys and the relative names as values) but I don't know how to create the menus.<br /> I'll try to make another example.<br /> Let's say I have 3 posts:<br /> Post 1) Region: Lombardia - Province: Milano<br /> Post 2) Region: Lombardia - Province: Brescia<br /> Post 3) Region: Tuscany - Province: Florence<br /> If I click on "Lombardia" in the first menu, don't click anything on the second and just click the search button, the page should load Post 1 AND Post 2. If I click on "Lombardia" and then on "Brescia" on the secon drop-down menu and click search, I should see only Post 2. If I click on "Tuscany" or "Tuscany-Florence" I should always see only Post 3. Does this makes any sense? Can any of you help me understand which could be the best way to achieve this? Is there anything I could use?<br /> Thank you very much! =)<br /> Yuri </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/334893#post-1291553 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 22:37:48 +0000 cbrichar 1291553@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Hi all,<br /> I've been trawling through the Picasa web album plugins to try and find one that does what I need, but I've yet to track one down that behaves the way I want.</p> <p>What I want:<br /> - A sidebar-based widget that will display a thumbnail of the MOST RECENT photo within a picasa web album that I specify. The thumbnail should then link to the photo itself (or failing that, to the album). </p> <p>Seems simple enough, but all versions I've found so far either display RANDOM thumbnails, or are more geared on displaying full-sized album images within Wordpress.</p> <p>Ideas? Thanks in advance!</p> <p>Colin </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/332206#post-1290736 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 06:04:16 +0000 WatchCount.com 1290736@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Jonas:</p> <p>Actually, I just submitted my first plugin request yesterday, so it's only been 1 day for me. I'm sure the WP approvers must be a number of volunteers kindly donating their time to review submissions, and given the holidays (here in the US), maybe things might take a little longer than usual.</p> <p>Sounds like you may be at the same step that I'm at: submitted a request, but haven't been granted access to svn yet. Correct? In which case, the readme.txt file hasn't been uploaded/submitted yet, so I guess that's not even an issue at this point.</p> <p>1 thing, too: I was under the impression that the Plugin URL we supply during the application process is a link to a home/landing page on our site with information about the plugin -- not a .zip file itself. But, I could be wrong about that.</p> <p>adamt07: Thanks for your input on this process! I'm sorta wondering where along the way you had that "little trouble" -- sounds like it was with using svn, no? If that's the case, then it would seem to be after the approval stage that Jonas and I are currently at.</p> <p>As for actually using Subversion (svn), I've got these URLs in my notes to review, once I have about an hour or 2 to sit down and really absorb it all -- and of course have been granted svn access.</p> <p><a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Subversion" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Subversion</a><br /> <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/svn/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/svn/</a><br /> <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/faq/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/about/faq/</a><br /> <a href="http://subversion.tigris.org/" rel="nofollow">http://subversion.tigris.org/</a><br /> <a href="http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html" rel="nofollow">http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html</a></p> <p>-WCC </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/334621#post-1290709 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 05:27:45 +0000 crypted 1290709@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>After the past few upgrades, the javascript stopped working. </p> <p>Basically, the javascript is in widgets and they are Google Adsense and Google Analytics. </p> <p>They are on my personal sites.</p> <p>How can I get these to work again?

Did you follow their instructions to the letter? I do remember having a little trouble, and having to go back and redo it because I didn't do one step just right. But I've published one plugin to the repository, so I don't have a ton of experience in getting them into the SVN. If you followed it just right and your files were all in order, you may want to try to shoot the wordpress guys an email asking what's going on. </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/334013#post-1290697 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 05:14:47 +0000 threethings 1290697@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>I had tried changing the other link; which messed it all up.<br /> However, this is now resolved.

Then I would get access to the SVN after 1-2 days (in your case) and commit everything there, correct?</p> <p>Thanks!<br /> Jonas </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/332206#post-1290658 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 04:27:21 +0000 adamt07 1290658@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Best I remember it took my last one like a day or two.

However, there doesn't seem to be any information on how long this actually takes. I've slightly modified the readme (added the two missing sections FAQs and screen shots) - but still don't know when to expect something from WP.</p> <p>Have you ever submitted your own plugin?</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Jonas </p> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/334531#post-1290438 Sun, 22 Nov 2009 23:24:59 +0000 SolidarityScl 1290438@http://wordpress.org/support/ <p>Just got phpbb3 installed after a million tries, uploaded wp2bb (the integration plugin), managed to find the local path of my phpbb installation after a million tries.

The issue was lot deeper than that in which the widgets didn't appear on the site in the order they were on the set-up page.

This was the scenario:</p> <p>Widgets not appearing in the order as programmed:<br /> Eventually after a very long time I found the problem was only with Firefox. No issue on IE or Google Chrome.
