Afterwords it does not end loading the file and the following error occurs: * Uncaught ReferenceError: tsl_geodir_post_id is not defined at HTMLInputElement.

Once an entry is saved, and you are editing the entry, then it works. Since we have no post id for the unpublished entry, we have no way of saving the image. We will be modifying the plugin to make the Edit Offers button only available for entries that have a post-id. Version 1.7.8 is being pushed to WordPress to address the issue. * Many thanks for your persistence in helping us track this issue down to fix it. * Thread Starter [DZipfel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dzipfel/) * (@dzipfel) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/select-file-button-without-effect-error/#post-8916046) * In backend editor the file upload now works for existing entries, but this solution is no solution for me because: 1) It should be possible to enter special offers with file upload when users create a new entry and not only after first saving( everything else needs too much explanation to users/customers) 2) Actually the button is only shown at existing entries in backend editor. In frontend editor( which is the users standard interface) the button is never shown 3) The shortcode had no effect in my tests. It just showed the complete shortcode text with brackets and without Link * So the best (agile) next step for me would be: 1) kill the file upload and coupon shortcode feature for the moment until it works for new entries without bugs. 2) Make the button available in frontend editor for new entries and existing entries. * With this minimal solution we could just use this plugin to get scheduled plain text offers which is a good first step. * Plugin Author [fkestler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fkestler/) * (@fkestler) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/select-file-button-without-effect-error/#post-8917546) * We have fixed items 1 and 2 this morning and have just released the fix. You can now add Special Offers on new listings and you can also add / change special offers from the front end. Also, voucher image uploads work for new listings as well. * As for item 3, we will review the shortcodes over the next week to see what might be causing the issue you are experiencing. Once we make improvements on this area we will do a new release with documentation. * Let me know if there is any additional issues that you find as we are happy to get this plugin working perfectly for you. - This reply was modified 9 years, 1 month ago by [fkestler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fkestler/). * Thread Starter [DZipfel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dzipfel/) * (@dzipfel) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/select-file-button-without-effect-error/#post-8917803) * Great support (so far) 🙂 Now 1-3 works (including item3!). So i can now 1) Upload a file when entry is new (or not new) 2) Use the button in frontend editor 3) AND coupon shortcode works for me as described * Only one new problem is left for this special usecase: * You create a new business entry * In this new entry you create a new special offer item that has no voucher and save it * You then edit this new special offer and add a voucher image and save again. After that done there is no “save/cancel” button to leave this form and get back to the business editor form. * Thread Starter [DZipfel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dzipfel/) * (@dzipfel) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/select-file-button-without-effect-error/#post-8918627) * One additional question: could you explain what “visible date” does besides “ start date” and “end date”? An shall “start date” and “end date” be shown in the Special Offer after publishing? * I would expect that there is a “start date”, when the Special offer becomes visible and an “end date” when it vanishes. So “visible date” is one field too much for me to understand this. * Plugin Author [fkestler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fkestler/) * (@fkestler) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/select-file-button-without-effect-error/#post-8918672) * Visible date is when the offer is displayed on the front end. Start date is when the offer takes affect. End date is when the offer is no longer visible and is no longer available. * For example. Let’s say you are the owner of my favorite pub, Schlenkerla, in Bamberg. Despite the fact that you are distinctly not Irish, you decide to have a 2-for-1 Rauchbier special for Patrick’s day. You want people to see the offer on Wednesday, but they cannot take advantage of the offer until Friday. The plugin will display it on the visible date (Wednesday) but will show the offer Starting on Friday and ending on Friday. This way you can give advance notice to people for special events, etc. * Plugin Author [fkestler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fkestler/) * (@fkestler) * [9 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/select-file-button-without-effect-error/#post-8918680) * For example – this would be displayed on the front-end: * **St Patricks Day Special** Starts: 17 March, 2017 Ends: 17 March, 2017 Buy one Rauchbier get one Rauchbier free.
