I am also having problems with the series meta not displaying. It had been displaying as I wanted on the home page, archive pages and individual posts until I upgraded to version 2.4.6, but now it is missing from the home page! (everything still looks ok on the archive pages and individual posts)
I am seeing this issue as well. This can be fixed a few different ways:
a) You can add the following to your index.php:
if(function_exists('wp_seriesmeta_write')){echo str_replace('%postcontent%','',wp_seriesmeta_write());}
The replace is to get rid of the unneeded %postcontent%.
Or
b) You can remove %postcontent% from the “Series Meta” field in the Options, and then add the following to any files where you want the Series Meta to appear (eg, index.php, single.php, etc.):
if(function_exists('wp_seriesmeta_write')){echo wp_seriesmeta_write();}
I’m not sure why it stopped working, and I can’t see anything in the code that indicates an issue. I thought perhaps some filters that I have in my functions.php for the_content and the_content_more_link might be the cause, but removing those (temporarily) didn’t change anything.
I hope the above is helpful!
I did some more digging, and it looks like this is actually by design. There’s code in orgSeries-setup.php that excludes the front page from having the Series Meta displayed. So I suggest the following:
Leave %postcontent% as-is, and instead add the following to one’s functions.php:
// Add Series Meta information to posts that belong to a series (for Blog Index/Home).
function add_series_meta($content) {
if ( is_front_page() && function_exists('wp_seriesmeta_write') ){
if ($series_meta = wp_seriesmeta_write()) {
$addcontent = $content;
$content = str_replace('%postcontent%', $addcontent, $series_meta);
}
}
return $content;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'add_series_meta', 1000);
That should fix things, while leaving the existing functionality alone.
