Not in public, but in private, sure. Where can I email this? Or is there some sort PM functionality on here? (sorry I’m new) Or should I send it through this form perhaps? https://www.joedolson.com/contact/
Sorry for this embarrassing support topic! If you had a copy of the 3 default pages, I could maybe just try to replace mine with yours? Are they part of the plugin ZIP archive? I installed this plugin through WordPress, not by downloading it with my browser then uploading the ZIP file, BTW.
EDIT: Basically, what I need is a shortcode to make your plugin’s mt-cart.php script included in the /purchase page. The /purchase page has the sidebar and everything, but the contents is empty.
I tried to disable, delete and reinstall the plugin, same thing. Everything works as expected, but the /purchase URL shows an empty contents page.
When I put [quick-cart] I see the trimmed down one liner cart on the site, this works fine, but the full cart, nope, it’s blank. There is no PHP/Apache error_log produced in the FTP either.
Any help in just getting this plugin to simply work would be appreciated. I’m not expecting to do complicated things with it, I just want it to work in its simplest form, I’m not customizing anything, I just installed the plugin but it doesn’t work out of the box.
The cart isn’t rendered by a shortcode; it’s rendered by filtering the content of the page. So there is no shortcode to produce the cart. What’s most likely happening is a problem with your theme preventing the filter from running.
Contact me directly by submitting a support request using the support form on the “Help” screen of the plug-in.
You’re right and after much hair pulling, I finally managed to fix the issue! Your plugin’s cart page displays in full now.
It turns out my PURCHASED wordpress theme (which I paid money for) was coded like garbage and would prevent some (like yours) plugins’ filters to apply! I put an echo ‘<!–AAA–>’ in your my_tickets_cart() filter function and to my surprise, it did not appear anywhere in the HTML source.
Then I found this S/E answer to be quite useful: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/274742/160761
What I did to resolve the issue is to change my theme’s APPEARANCE > EDITOR > “page.php” code by editing this line:
echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]'.get_the_content().'[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]');
…to this line which completely fixed the issue…
echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]' . apply_filters('the_content', wp_trim_words(get_the_content(), 70)) . '[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]');
Thank you for replying BTW. Keep this handy as it may be useful if somebody tells you that the cart doesn’t show up in their theme.
Yes, if a theme overwrites the content and doesn’t execute the filter ‘the_content’, it’s going to cause some problems! Glad you found the issue. There are a lot of different ways that themes can screw things up, and this is certainly one of the possibilities!
