In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] Magazine option displaying entire content – how to fixCheck the options tab on the tpg-get-posts plugin settings. Make sure the extension is current, see message at top of options tab. If the options have been validated then there should be a message stating so and if the extensions have not been downloaded there will be a download/update button next to the save options.
Download the extension from the options settings tab by clicking the download button.

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] Magazine option displaying entire content – how to fixthe slide show short code
!slideshow_deploy!is non standard. Standard short codes begin are enclosed with []. Try [slideshow_deploy].If that does not correct the problem, then disable the tpg-get-posts plugin to see if the slideshow is displayed. I have not heard of any conflict with a slideshow before.
What slide show are you using?

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] Magazine option displaying entire content – how to fixThe thumbnail requires that the image be set as a featured post image. You do that on the post page, lower right hand column.
The text can be controlled by inserting the more tag on the post where you want the text to break. If you are not familiar with the more tag, a search on wordpress more tag will reveal details on how to use it.
Does that correct the problem?

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] TPG gave me White Screen of DeathThis is a first. My first suspicion is the upgrade did not finish successfully. At risk of great annoyance I would try it again.
If you want an older version, from the WP extension site http://wordpress.org/plugins/tpg-get-posts/ select the Developers tab. All the old versions are tagged and can be downloaded and installed.

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] Read more link to be read inlineHi Anna:
This will require php coding to scan the content and rewite the read more link. If you would like to engage me to write this code, contact me directly webmaster :: tpginc.net.

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] Read more link to be read inlineThe read more inline plugin actually replaces the link with a div with a special class. I am not sure how to fix that.
There is an exit/hook in the tpg plugin which will allow a custom routine to be applied to the post content and it could be made to emulate the plugin code. You would need to write the custom routine and call the exit/hook. If you have a php programmer they should be able to do that for you if you are not comfortable with doing it yourself.

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] Read more link to be read inlineAt this release, the two plugins conflict with each other and I don’t have a clear solution. I will add it to my todo list for the plugin, but I am unable to say when I will be able to spend time looking into this.
You might try adding the class to the read more text with a span:
more_link_text=”<span class=’readmoreinline’Read More…</span> ”I don’t know if this will work or not.

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] How to display "Previous and later" entriesI just released version 3.1.1 which addresses the next/previous link. You will need to apply the css style to the links. Look in the options for for the page_next option. Hope this is close to what you need.
I don’t know about the Read More Inline. At this release, the two plugins conflict and I don’t have a clear solution at this time.

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] How to display "Previous and later" entriesAnna:
The plugin uses the standard WP pagination process, as I understand it. I will look at the pageline theme and see how they are generating the pagination links. It will take some time to do this but I should be able to give you an update at the end of the week.For the header spacing, if you use Firefox and have the Firebug extension installed, you can highlight the header and see the css that is generating the space. You can dynamically change the css setting and see how it alters the display.
the code you added .tpg-title-class h2 {margin: 0;} is being overridden by the theme. change it to
.tpg-title-class h2 {margin: 0 !important;} to stop any overriding of this css rule.
I will update on the pagination later in the week.

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] How to display "Previous and later" entriesNice Site!
The space above the header – I assume for the first post is the one showing the extra space. This is due to the css for h2 having a margin of margin: 1em 0; at line 2648 in the css file. You can override the h2 margin for the get_post entry by referencing the class and then h2
.tpg-title-class h2 {margin: 0;}Not being familiar with your theme, you will need to determine where to place it to override the existing css. You can set up a custom css file as part of the get_post plugin (see doc on styling) if you are comfortable with putting new files on your server.
For the pagination:
Make sure the plugin and extension are current – version 3.1.0. Then make sure the ext is active on the settings tab for the plugin.Try the pagination without the field class option and see if it displays the pagination links. It it does then the next step is to apply the theme formatting – but we need to get the pagination showing first.
This theme puts a lot of styles on the paging nav
“pager page-nav-default fix previous previous-entriesI would suggest starting with the last class and adding each after the pagination is showing.
field_classes=”pagination=tpg-pagination-class previous previous-entries”If the pagination does not appear, email me webmaster tpginc.net

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] How to display "Previous and later" entriesI think what you are looking for is pagination. That is supported in the extension. Look at this example and see if it does what you need.

In reply to: [TPG Get Posts] Customize shorten codeYes, but not in on short-code.
[tpg_get_posts fields="title,content", show_excerpt="true" numberposts=1] [tpg_get_posts fields="title",offset=1]I have not tested this, but the first shortcode show 1 post and the second will show titles for all the others. The offset is documented in the codex.
See if that works.
