Are you using the drag/drop widget or the text based shortcode?
I’m using the shortcode
[recentposts-carousel columns=”1″ category=”carousel-entertainment” number=”3″ image=”yes”]
Ok, we just updated the plugin, so you may want to update before making this change because you will have to edit the plugins output so any future updates we push out you will want to either by-pass or back up your changes first so you can re-apply them after the update, but honestly I don’t see us updating this plugin anytime soon since we just updated it.
Since you are using the text based shortcode you will need to edit the cr3ativ-recentposts.php
Look for this:
$output .= ‘<div><h2 class=”recentposts_carousel”>‘.$temp_title.’</h2><p>’.$temp_excerpt.'</p></div>’;
and change it to this:
$output .= ‘<div><h2 class=”recentposts_carousel”>‘.$temp_title.’</h2><p>’.$temp_excerpt.'</p><p>Continue Reading</p></div>’;
It appears that there maybe a problem with this update, it is not displaying posts one at a time. I have reloaded previous version from backup.
Hi,
Sorry – I’m not seeing an issue? What exactly do you mean by ‘mangled’? We can attach screen shots here, but I’m seeing a 1 column layout (from that link you sent) with 3 posts shuffling through?
I tried updating again, the results were the same. The carousel is displaying all posts in a vertical stack and sliding the entire stack horizontally. Reloaded previous version again.
How do I attach a screenshot?
You can’t here. Hmm, I’m not getting that at all. Can you go to cr3ativ.ticksy.com and open a ticket and supply a screen shot? Also, what browsers? Have you tried other browsers? The link you gave me, everything looks fine in the browsers I’m looking in (Safari, Chrome, FF and IE).
Yes it looks ok now because I reloaded a previous version of the plug in. Will go to your other url and upload from there.
It is requiring a purchase code. I don’t have one.
I uploaded the screencap at http://www.sacbride.com/screencap.jpg
as you can see the post title is not displaying and the posts are all stacked and sliding together.
Did not think to try other browsers, viewed only in firefox.
That’s quite an older version? I’m running (on Mac) 34.0.5 and a new version just came out.
Have you tried on other browsers?
I can’t replicate the issue you are having, it appears fine in all browsers to me.
If you are still having issues, try deleting the plugin all together (don’t worry it won’t delete your items from the database.
Then re-install the plugin from scratch, maybe something went wrong on the update?
OK, I’ll try deleting and reinstalling.
