 * Thanks, Rajesh. I had activated debug mode on the first site when it first started
   happening, but I don’t get any error code. I can log in, but then the page is
   completely blank even with debug mode on. Very curious…

 * Excellent, that solved the problem. Thanks for the reply, t-p, very much appreciated.
   I’ll remove it after the next update.
 * And next time I’ll check trouble tickets before posting. Thanks again…

 * Thanks for the reply, aehwp, but I finally had to give up on this and just created
   category menu items for each category.
 * “these pages” was referring to the paragraph above that where I mentioned limiting
   post categories to “certain pages”.
 * Again, thanks for the reply, but I’m all set now…

 * I still don’t know why that was happening, but we resolved it by simply adding
   a blog to each of those categories. I wondered if it would then show 2 entries
   per category, but oddly it doesn’t. It now correctly shows just one.
 * No fix to report, but this is no longer an issue…

 * Hi Mark, thanks for the reply.
 * Double checked that multiple times, just the one category checked.
 * Spent quite a bit of time checking everything before posting, and really has 
   me puzzled. Only one category checked on the only post on the site, nothing in
   the database except that one post, and why only those three particular categories
   are showing incorrectly out of eight is a mystery…

 * Hi Danny,
 * I may have spoken too soon in the previous post. It appears some of those problems
   are being caused by some other plugin. I think…

 * Hi Danny,
 * Thanks for the quick reply.
 * I deactivated “Category to Pages”, and installed and activated “Grid WUD”. Set
   all the Settings and tried it out. But have a few issues.
 * I tried different variations of the ShortCode, but can only get one category 
   to display on a page. I’ve tried different ways of including multiple categories
   in the shortcode, but it seems to only work with one category.
 * However, when using just one category I have other problems. I created screenshots,
   but can’t attach them here or on the contact page on your site, so I’ll try to
   describe them.
 * Even though I have Featured Image set to show as thumbnail, it displays much 
   larger. Also, for some reason part of the image and text I have earlier in the
   page (before the shortcode) is being displayed again to the right of the featured
   image in the list. I made sure the “Read More” button is active, but it does 
   nothing when I click on it.
 * When I click on the Featured Image, it does bring up the blog on a page, but 
   for some reason the footer text is being moved to the top of the page, and the
   right sidebar is being moved down to the bottom of the page (under the blog).
 * I wish I could send you the screenshots…

 * Thanks, billrodgers, that worked perfectly. Appreciate it. I searched, but hadn’t
   found that post.
 * It would be nice to have those options in the Settings panel.

 * Hi Aaron,
 * Just wondered if you’d had a chance to look at this yet? Not rushing you, just
   thought I’d check. Hadn’t seen anything on your site…

 * Really appreciate any help with it, Aaron. Anything I can do to help let me know.
   I code, but I’m not really familiar with WP structure yet except for a few installs/
   setups.

   can do…

 * I may not have explained it well enough, the comments (quotes) wouldn’t need 
   attachments, just the original post (request) so they can attach possible examples
   of work being requested.
 * All posts (requests) and comments (quotes) can be public, that way other people
   that might be looking for the same thing can find them.
 * I thought it was strange too that there seems to be nothing like this. I’m not
   a plugin writer by any means, but it seems it would be relatively simple compared
   to some of the very well written and feature rich plugins available for other
   things. not that it will be simple or easy, of course, but comparatively. And
   as I said it’s something I see a lot on various websites. Could be a niche market.
   🙂
 * I have notifications turned on, so I’ll be watching. And thanks again…

 * Hi Aaron,
 * Thanks for the reply.
 * Yes, a friend of mine is setting up a site where they will be selling products
   in their online store, but would like customers to be able to (outside the store)
   request a quote for a custom product modification.
 * It would be similar to some of the programming job websites where people can 
   post a requirement and request bids. In fact, it would be very similar.
 * For fields, the poster would need to be able to enter a username, email address,
   and description of requirements, with the ability to upload an attachment for
   example purposes, etc.
 * They shouldn’t have to register as a member to be able to request a quote, though
   it might be helpful to have some sort of Captcha system or something similar.
   And of course an email address would be required.
 * Contractors would then be able to reply (comment) to the request. This could 
   all be done in one comment field, but it would be helpful to have a separate 
   field for the quote amount. That way the replies could possibly be sorted by 
   quote amount, which would be handy for viewing replies.
 * It would also be helpful if any replies were also automatically emailed to the
   OP.
 * Then the site admin would have the option to mark any request closed at any time,
   which would of course close replies (comments).
 * If this could be done on a page, similar to WP posts (maybe using short codes?),
   with an archive system similar to WP’s current post archive system, it would 
   be perfect.
 * I thought because of the number of sites I see doing this kind of thing there
   would already be at least a few WP plugins doing this, but I can’t find one.
 * It could of course be ‘fancied up’ and made even more usable, but those are the
   basics I’ve been looking for…
