I have found that the error message is sometimes a false flag and the form still works.
Either way, this error has been appearing for a long time and it’s rather sloppy on WPForms not to fix it.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WebberZone Top 10 — Popular Posts] Custom Day Range Not ApplyingAjay, I apologize for taking you down this rabbit trail, but I learned something. Correct me if I’m wrong, but it appears that if I go in and manually override the total page view count, that value is ignored in the daily range tracker, but it is calculated in “overall”.
When I installed the plugin, I went through all my URLs for each post in Google Analytics and gathered the page view values within a 60 day range. I then took these values and added them into your plugin’s page view count field, on each post (it took a while). I did this a little less than a week ago so I figured your plugin would count these as “page views within 7 days”. That is not the case.
I was hoping to simulate what was popular over the past 60 days, even though I didn’t have the plugin installed. Now that you’ve taken me through the various places your plugin tracks, I can see that the counters are all working properly, starting on the day the plugin was installed.
Is there any way to accomplish what I was trying to do? If not, it’s still a great plugin. Everything is self-hosted and I have access to the stack and file system.

In reply to: [WebberZone Top 10 — Popular Posts] Custom Day Range Not ApplyingThanks for the response. I reset the settings in the plugin area. I then deleted the widget, then re-added the widget. I changed the settings to day range (and set it to 7) and ensured I saved settings. It still only shows top posts based on today’s views. I also tried 60 days, but still only shows the top posts based on today’s views.
I also double-checked my post view counts. The post with the most views in the last 60 days is definitely not showing up as the top post when I set the “Custom Time Period” to 60 days. The same is true for 7. “Custom Time Period” in the widget is always showing the top posts from today, no matter what value I set.
I also attempted to set the day range to 0 and the hours range to 168 (7 days) to see if that worked, but no go.
I have not tried version 2.6.1

In reply to: [Social] Custom post types supported?A lot of times enabling features for new post_types is simply a matter of dropping 5-10 lines of code in functions.php
In this case with this plugin, when you say “you need to write some custom code…”, is it just a handful of lines of code that need to be added to one of the plugin files or would it require a substantial amount of PHP authoring? If it’s the former:
Could you provide an example code snippet (and in which file, and where in the file it belongs). For simplicity, perhaps use “books” as the custom post_type term? Something like this would be super helpful.
I did a number of queries, but I could not figure out a way to filter my queries to only a specific plugin’s posts. Unfortunately “Social” is a generic term and my searches yielded a lot of unrelated results. Is there something I’m missing in how I searched?
This is why I added the “by Mailchimp” in the title, so that future users might have an easier time finding this topic. Thanks for the reference.

In reply to: viewport not scaling to 1I think this is a valid question for this forum because I noticed something unique with WordPress and the viewport setting.
I’m noticing different behaviors with the viewport setting on a WordPress website vs. a plain HTML website.

In reply to: Configurable Tag Cloud, font size and color problemSo is mine actually. I forget that plugins plugins plugins can cause so many PhP problems if there’s a conflict and weird anomalies are often a sign of conflicts.

In reply to: Configurable Tag Cloud, font size and color problemI upgraded to WordPress 3.2.0 and I have the same problem. I’m not using colored tags, but I’m having the same issue with all tags appearing the same size. I tried upgraded to WP 3.2.1, but the issue remains.

In reply to: An excerpt of recent post outside the loop?Estevancarlos: Dude seriously, you have no idea how helpful this is to me. Thank you. It looks like you found that same article by that Italian guy…maybe? I see the same function that he used in there and it looks like you successfully updated it with the modern “get_posts”
Anyway, I don’t write PhP, but I look at it enough to know a bit of what I need. This is so helpful, thank you!
Brilliant! Thank you. And for the uber-PHP noobs like myself, this is the actual statement I placed in the single.php file that ignores certain posts and references the settings I’ve specified in the functions.php (like ensuring that on the single pages, the thumbnail is actually larger)
<?php if( !is_single(array(369, 452)) ) the_post_thumbnail( 'single-post-thumbnail' );?>Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Get Recent Comments Gravatar in SidebarSame problem, here are some specifics:
I am using this same plugin on a wordpress site running 2.7 and another one running 2.8.4. Both blogs are running “Get Recent Comments” 2.0.6
If I use the widgetized sidebar, and drag the “Get Recent Comments” widget to the sidebar, the gravatars do NOT show up.
If I call the plugin manually not using the widgetized sidebar with
<?php get_recent_comments(); ?>…then the gravatars show up. This is a major pain if I want to universally use the widget, re-order widgets and so on.
Can anyone help me get the gravatars to show up using the widgets?
