In reply to: Advanced Custom Fields ACF and Permalinks not getting along“There are 3 category archive pages in the site and none of them link as soon as I turn on permalink.”
More accurately:
“There are 3 category archive pages in the site and none of them link to their respective posts as soon as I turn on permalinks.”

In reply to: [Twenty Fourteen] Limiting the number of featured posts in gridAnd I spoke too soon. 🙁
Having sporadic luck with this method. I can now get the 6th element to reappear on the local copy but even after syncing DBS and transferring the entire parent and child theme folders I couldn’t get it on the testing server. Caches cleared, checked multiple browsers.
Manually deactivating all plug-ins, then toggling the customizer from grid to slider (with plug-ins off), then reactivating plus-ins — on both copies — I can get the sixth block.
BUT — as feared — changing out which posts are featured reverts it to broken. This would require someone at the admin level to manually repeat these steps every time they wanted to change the home page features.
As a side tangent, but possibly important, it appears some part of the header is being blocked in the process as well: my page/post CSS is now broken (main-content area shifted up, too wide etc.)
Test site is ffburn.org/2015
This has been going on for 2 weeks now… running out of ideas.

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Conflict with Featured Content blocks on 2014 themeThanks Brook. It turned out not to be related to any plug-in at all (turned them all off and… well, duh)
Thanks for looking into it.

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Conflict with Featured Content blocks with 2014 themeTurned out it was not related to any plug-in at all.
I ran the steps listed at http://wpthememakeover.com/2014/08/29/how-to-change-the-default-number-of-featured-posts-displayed-in-the-wordpress-twenty-fourteen-theme/ which seems to have knocked something loose by disabling/re-enabling the featured content pull.

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Conflict with Featured Content blocks on 2014 themeNoticed this hasn’t posted to the main Support forum linked from the Plug-Ins page. Will re-post there.
In the meantime: I noticed this in the Views directory PHP files
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) { die( '-1' ); }No idea what this line of code does but the negative 1 is the only logical reference I can find that points to the problem.

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Conflict with Featured Content blocks on 2014 themeProblem is still persisting. Any response or possible solutions greatly appreciated.

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Events Calendar not visible on mobileI had the same issue. Drill down to the content block that holds the calendar (I used Chrome’s Dev Tools) to locate the class name. This for some reason is set to display: inline. Setting it to display: block should get it back on the page, pushing the footer down.

In reply to: [Twenty Fourteen] Limiting the number of featured posts in gridI have similar need but in this case, I actually want the 6 original posts to show. I have, up til today, had 6 featured posts on the homepage. Today the last one has disappeared from the source code.
I installed The Events Calendar plug-in today, which I initially thought may have caused the problem. I deactivated, refreshed and it did fix it. I turned it back on and the problem stayed fixed. Later, the problem returned. Turning it off again did not fix the problem the second time.
I am developing in MAMP using Chrome/Dev Tools with cache turned off.
I have tried all the suggestions above:
• Fourteen Extended (once I found a copy) only allows certain preset orders (chrono, alpha, etc) but doesnt recognize the ‘featured’ tag. This does resurrect the sixth post but isnt a workable solution since the end user needs to be able to easily turn on/off homepage items.
• functions file: have tried in parent and child themes, both set to => 6. Also tried == 6 and other numbers. No change.Bug Kathryn mentioned is marked as ‘fixed’ — not sure what there’s left to do here. Any advice would be helpful.

In reply to: WP behaving strangely since 8/30You were right.
The slideshow had an update that doesnt work with 3.2.1. Downgraded and that was solved. Other one was all ‘operator error’ 🙂
Thanks for your help!

In reply to: WP behaving strangely since 8/30Thanks Esmi. This would explain both site’s problems then? It just seems too coincidental that there be such problems within a day of each other on unrelated sites, you know?
