Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Sparkling] colorlib Activello header with Sparkling themeGlados, thank you for expressing that sentiment.
Sadly, while colorlib provides some nice themes — and once actually supported them in its forums — it now deflects every overture for assistance with the same boilerplate response — “Go hire a coder.”
This serves to stifle any sense of community among theme users, who in many cases will, if given the chance, collectively work out coding problems and provide solutions.
Fortunately, I believe WordPress controls the wordpress.org forums, and not colorlib. Thus, we have the opportunity to assist each other with issues and bypass colorlib’s less-than-enthusiastic “moderators”.
By the way, if you want to see an example of a time when colorlib actually supported its themes, take a look at this thread:

I would also like to see multi-sidebar support for this widget.
Great tool, but it’s rather constrained when you can only use it with one sidebar widget.
On a side note, can’t access the author’s site. Perhaps it’s down temporarily, but not a good sign.
Thanks.
nsp-code:
I went back and disabled Post Types Order, created child terms for custom post types entries, and found Taxonomy Order now works as advertised.
On reflection, both plugins appear to accomplish the same thing. Whether you’re dragging around entries by custom post type or taxonomy, they still wind up in the same place.
I’ve corrected my rating accordingly. Thanks for following up, and for providing these plugins.
nsp-code, on further testing, I noticed that child terms can be rearranged under a parent term.
However, also on further testing, I found the Taxonomy Order plugin doesn’t work at all. The actual content was not sorted.
The Post Types Order plugin works as advertised. This one didn’t.
Again, I don’t want to sort entries by taxonomy so much as by taxonomy term.
So if my taxonomy is Fruit and my terms are Apples, Oranges and Pears, I’d like to display all my Apples in Wp-Admin and see a Sort column that will let me order my Apples as 1, 2, 3, 4.
Can you provide that feature?
NOTE: Found it. Never mind!
I installed and activated php-code-widget in a local WordPress installation with XAMPP. However, it’s not showing up on my Widgets page.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

In reply to: [WP-DBManager] [Plugin: WP-DBManager] How do I change the email address?Many thanks, Lester.
Searched and searched, but I had completely missed it.

In reply to: [WP-DBManager] [Plugin: WP-DBManager] How do I change the email address?Lester, there is obviously a place to input my email address on the Manage Backup Database page, but there is no SAVE button!
That’s why I can’t save the changes!
The only buttons on the page are labeled Email, Download, Restore, Delete and Cancel.
I see no way to input a new email address and save it.

In reply to: [WP-DBManager] [Plugin: WP-DBManager] How do I change the email address?Lester, are you out there? I could really use an answer to my question.

In reply to: [Plus One] Disabling for custom post typesJust noticed the script doesn’t pick up the url of the blog post when placed manually.
Metronet does not appear to be monitoring this forum or answering his email, for that matter.
Plus One is a bust for users who want control over placement of the Google Plus button.

In reply to: Limit excerpt length by charactersseanjacob, no matter what number I set, your script will not display more than 64 characters.
The WordPress SEO menu was there all along for individual custom post types.
As nonindex/nofollow did not appear in the collective listing of custom posts, I inaccurately assumed SEO was not available for custom post types.
My bad!
If anything, the question would now be, how would I edit my custom post type menu to include a noindex/nofollow column?
Seriously, Joost, how bout it? Consider this a feature request.
Why shouldn’t we have the option to nofollow custom post types?
OK, then. This seems to produce the desired result:
<title><?php bloginfo(‘name’); ?> | <?php wp_title(”); ?></title>
Unless Joost has anything to add, this concludes my conversation with myself.
