    When I try to add my first chart to a page by clicking on the “Insert GF Chart” button in the Visual Editor, I get the shortcode. Then I go to view the page and I still see the shortcode, not the chart:

    [gfchartsreports gf_form_id=”2″ type=”pie” color_set=”blue” color_rand=”false” width=”40%” tooltip_style=”BOTH” position=”none”/]

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi Larry,

    Sorry for the delay, can you check the ” are correctly set ?
    It seems that
    gf_form_id=”2″

    has two different types of quotes.

    I will investigate and test more this

    Thank you for your feedback

    Hi,

    I double-checked my shortcode and on the backend in the Text Editor it’s:
    [gfchartsreports gf_form_id="2" type="pie" color_set="blue" color_rand="false" width="40%" tooltip_style="BOTH" position="none" /]

    However, when I do a “View Page” it is rendered as:
    `[gfchartsreports gf_form_id=”2″ type=”pie” color_set=”blue” color_rand=”false” width=”40%” tooltip_style=”BOTH” position=”none” /]’

    with the different kinds of quotes you describe.

    It’s not clear to me where the “transformation” is happening. Because when I return to the page editor, I definitely see my original text with the proper quotes.

    However, I’m seeing this transformation problem even when the MaxiCharts plugin is disabled. So I will also be on the lookout for some other plugin that is interfering here. (I’m using the Avada theme which has been quite reliable, but it may also play a role.) I’ll let you know if I find the culprit.

    Thanks for your feedback, i am going to double check that maxicharts is not playing a role here.
    Thanks

    Hi,

    Thanks for the update.

    When activating MaxiCharts v1.0.5, I get the following messages on the screen:

    Notice: Constant PLUGIN_PATH already defined in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wpfiresidetheatre\wp-content\plugins\maxicharts\mcharts_custom_criteria_plugin.php on line 7

    Notice: Constant PLUGIN_PATH already defined in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wpfiresidetheatre\wp-content\plugins\maxicharts\mcharts_table_plugin.php on line 6
    Skip to main contentSkip to toolbar

    The plugin generated 380 characters of unexpected output during activation. If you notice “headers already sent” messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin.

    The top two messages appear on every page.

    I still do not see the MaxiCharts graph on our test page.

    Thank you for your help with this. I’m afraid I’m going to have to let this go for now. I will be uninstalling the plugin and won’t be able to do more testing.

    position=”none” is not a possible option by the way

    The 2 notice messages appear on your web pages because you probably have the WP option DEBUG_SHOW set to true in your wp-config.php, just set it to false in order to prevent those message from appearing.

    Else can you give me an access to your site so i can help you ? Use site’s contact form to send credentials

    Cheers
