[Theme: Atahualpa] [Plugin: podPress] (6 posts)

    I'm having the same problem someone listed on this page with the BFA Imageless theme http://wordpress.bytesforall.com/?p=37

    podPress shows up just fine on the main page, but if you go directly to a post it shows up as [display_podcast] http://ut.alternativeconservative.com/2009/01/howard-stephenson-on-education

    I was thinking maybe it's not just podPress so I tried adding an Event Calendar on a test post using EventsCalendarLarge

    They actually show up, but I get two repeating calendars in the post, and one in the sidebar http://ut.alternativeconservative.com/2008/11/calendar-test

    Does anyone know how I can fix this?

    Can you check both plugins with the "default" WP theme for a moment and see if they work there?

    I have temporarily set the theme to WordPress Classic 1.5 and it's working again. It was also working in Stascape. That's the theme I was using before I switched to Atahualpa.

    Could there be something in the theme causing it not to interpret [stuff_between_brackets] correctly?

    I don't know what because I don't know how to write code in PHP, but this appears to be the problem.

    What part of WordPress looks at a plugin command (or whatever you call it) between brackets (i.e. [display_podcast] or EventsCalendarLarge) and recognizes it needs to call a plugin, or this is a reserved word for a plugin or whatever?

    After searching all over the net, and emailing several people who appeared to have podPress working in Atahualpa, I have figured out the problem.

    When you place [display_podcast] in a post, the tags <h3></h3> are automatically placed around [display_podcast].

    If I remove the h3 tags, the podcast player will show up in a post.

    I spoke too soon. Removing the h3 tags appeared to work on some of the posts but not all. There was an interview with Richard Stallman on this site where the podcast player won't show up.
