Thanks. * Zach * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/catablog/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/catablog/) Viewing 15 replies - 16 through 30 (of 57 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/?output_format=md) 2 [3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/3/?output_format=md) [4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/4/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/3/?output_format=md) * [Jenny](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enigma666666/) * (@enigma666666) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470296) * Also,is it possible to have more than one catalog on one wordpress installation? I really like this plugin a great deal and I will be using it for my portfolio, but I design templates as well and will be needing to showcase them and sell some of them. Ideally I would luv to be able to use your plugin to do this as well eg place a separate catalog on my templates page. Is this possible at all and if so, how will I go about achieving this? * Thread Starter [macguru2000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macguru2000/) * (@macguru2000) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470297) * Well now, currently CataBlog only really works with one catalog, I created the tags feature to allow you to filter your catalog into different lists that you can then display on different pages. just add the tag attribute to the shortcode and only items with that tag will be shown, example `[catablog tag="painting"]`. I agree that what you want is in the direction that CataBlog is going. Multiple lists, categories, tags, javascript thumbnails enlargement [lightbox] and many other enhancements. * [Jenny](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enigma666666/) * (@enigma666666) * [16 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470298) * Thank you for explaining the use of the tag system to me. I will use it as you suggested, for my templates page then as well. * It will be great if eventually it does include the above mentioned. I’ve tried some of the portfolio plugins, but most are a major mission to implement and very bloated. Your plugin is very easy to use and ideal for anyone who needs to list content. * [jason-chng](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jason-chng/) * (@jason-chng) * [15 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470302) * Try * [Jenny](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enigma666666/) * (@enigma666666) * [15 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470305) * macguru2000, my site is still a work in progress, but here is that link I promised. * [My Portfolio](http://enigma-designs.co.za/portfolio) * Thread Starter [macguru2000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macguru2000/) * (@macguru2000) * [15 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470311) * A new version of CataBlog was released today, check it out and let me know what you think, cheers! * Zach * [Jenny](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enigma666666/) * (@enigma666666) * [15 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470313) * I downloaded it yesterday and will be using it on a client’s site.

How to accomplish this? * *I have 1 catablog with 27 items so far inside,which will increase with time. Instead of a long page display, I want the catablog to be split in 2 columns on the page. So what I did, is to give 1 tag to half the catablog entries and then gave another tag to second half of the entries.I then added the catablogs like this: * >
[catablog tag="Exotic Bikes1"]
> >
[catablog]
> However, only 1 catablog shows and the other column is empty. > Can you please tell me how to get catablog to display in 2 columns? * Thread Starter [macguru2000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macguru2000/) * (@macguru2000) * [15 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470315) * Enigma, * Getting CataBlog in a sidebar isn’t natively supported through a widget yet, but you might beable to put the shortcode code in a built in widget. As far as using a direct method in your theme, not supported but could be possible if you know about object oriented PHP and how to instantiate a class. * So I am not 100% sure why you are not seeing the second column. There is an example of a two column layout that you can see at [http://www.sweetdreamscoop.org/store](http://www.sweetdreamscoop.org/store). The way I see it, either the second shortcode isn’t loading anything due to a typo in the post, or more likely your second column is being loaded but the CSS is pushing the second column down below the first. I can help you more if you point me at the page you are having this problem with. Also as a side note, the second column will contain all the CataBlog items the first one has because it doesn’t have its own tag parameter. * These are all features I want to add soon, including pre-defined layouts, a widget and multiple catalogs. Input on which features should come first will be considered. * Cheers, Zach * [Jenny](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enigma666666/) * (@enigma666666) * [15 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470316) * Hi there, The site is sitting on my local Xampp server so I can’t post a link. The columns do display, but instead of the two columns displaying different content, both columns display the same content.So essentially the second column is a duplication of the 1st column. * I haven’t added/edited any code in my template files and only tried to create the two column layout via the above mentioned code, inline in the editor. * Can you tell me how the person (in the link you posted above) managed to get the content of catablog to display in two columns like that. * [Jenny](https://wordpress.org/support/users/enigma666666/) * (@enigma666666) * [15 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470317) * Nevermind, it was indeed a CSS issue! lol Problem is fixed now. * [lukum](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lukum/) * (@lukum) * [15 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470318) * Hi, Excellent plugin, congrats. One thing doesn’t seem to work though: nothing happens when clicking the “Change Order” button. Any fix?

Does the button turn blue and the label change to “Save Order”? If the button does change, does your mouse turn into arrows or a hand when hovering over the catalog items? If you click and drag a catalog item while the “Change Order” button is activated, does the item follow your mouse? Are there any error codes or example sites that you could link me too? * Thanks for your bug report, I would love to clear up this issue. Zach * FYI This post has gotten so long there are more pages, look to the right, below this post the next page link. 😉 * Thread Starter [macguru2000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macguru2000/) * (@macguru2000) * [15 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/2/#post-1470321) * Enigma, * I am planning to release an update today or tomorrow that will address some basic CSS issues I have been seeing. Themes have a lot of control over the websites appearance and there is no way I can make CataBlog as smart as someone with a good understanding of CSS. That being said I am making the base style classes’ position and display properties more specific. CataBlog will now be reseting all float, display, position and clear properties for all CataBlog HTML elements. This should make coding two or more column displays easier and stop theme CSS classes from breaking the display. * Cheers Viewing 15 replies - 16 through 30 (of 57 total) [←](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/?output_format=md) [1](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/?output_format=md) 2 [3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/3/?output_format=md) [4](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/4/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/3/?output_format=md) The topic ‘[Plugin: CataBlog] Bugs’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [memory leak](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/memory-leak/) * 57 replies * 10 participants * Last reply from: [benfriedman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/benfriedman/) * Last activity: [15 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-catablog-bugs/page/4/#post-1470348) * Status: resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
