For example, we are creating a database of venues. On the first page there will be a field called Venue Name. Can I display the value of that field at the top of the other form pages so the person filling out the form knows what venue they are working on?

If not, I might be able to make the select field work. * I’ve seen this ability in other post grid blocks – but I want to create my own to totally customize it. * Thanks! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Block Lab] Post Categories for Post Grid](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-categories-for-post-grid/) * Thread Starter [Don Betts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbetts/) * (@dbetts) * [6 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-categories-for-post-grid/#post-12182505) * Hi [@ryankienstra](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ryankienstra/), * Thanks for the quick response. Not sure I was clear in my question. * I don’t want to limit the block to appear in posts with certain categories, but I’d like to be able to pick the post category for the post grid block to display( e.g. show only posts in the ‘news’ category in the post grid). * Hopefully that makes more sense. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Compact WP Audio Player] ACF Shortcode Variable shows error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-shortcode-variable-shows-error/) * Thread Starter [Don Betts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbetts/) * (@dbetts) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-shortcode-variable-shows-error/#post-10526277) * That worked to remove the message. * Also, when I switch back to my original code and only input one file in the ACF repeater it no longer gives the warning. * Thanks for the help – marking resolved. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Compact WP Audio Player] ACF Shortcode Variable shows error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-shortcode-variable-shows-error/) * Thread Starter [Don Betts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbetts/) * (@dbetts) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/acf-shortcode-variable-shows-error/#post-10524456) * Update: the message goes away when I add a second file (using the ACF Repeater).

Barge in whenever you want! I misread the original need. I had assumed that lawlessvintage wanted a menu where there was no widget area and therefore have to register a menu and put it into a page template. Your solution was the best one for what was really needed. Thanks. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Adding a menu to a page other than homepage](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-a-menu-to-a-page-other-than-homepage/) * [Don Betts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbetts/) * (@dbetts) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-a-menu-to-a-page-other-than-homepage/page/2/#post-3495965) * lawlessvintage, I was away from my computer all weekend, but I’m glad you found a solution that works. I have to apologize for leading you down a bit of a rabbit trail – I had misunderstood from your original post that you wanted a menu right below the main menu in the header. If I had clarified earlier that you wanted it in the sidebar it woud have saved you a lot of grief. * Webrewers, thanks for stepping in and pointing out Display Widgets – I’ve used Widget Logic in the past but Display Widgets looks far easier to use. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Adding a menu to a page other than homepage](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-a-menu-to-a-page-other-than-homepage/) * [Don Betts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbetts/) * (@dbetts) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-a-menu-to-a-page-other-than-homepage/#post-3495909) * I think what happened last time was that your theme already has a function to add menus in functions.php which is why you got the error that it couldn’t register it twice. * So, look for the already existing register_nav_menus function and just add your new menu to that function. The whole thing should look something like this (the example is just a bit further down on the codex page from which you pulled the code from your last post): * ``` function register_my_menus() { register_nav_menus( array( 'header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' ), 'extra-menu' => __( 'Extra Menu' ) ) ); } add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' ); ``` * By the way, if you’re not using a text editor to edit your files via ftp, I highly recommend it. The problem with editing files in the WordPress admin is that if you break something you can’t get to the file to fix it because you’ve broken the admin side as well. If you have access to the files over ftp, you can still get in and fix things, or just replace your functions.php file instead of the whole theme. It took me awhile to learn that one when I was starting out! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Adding a menu to a page other than homepage](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-a-menu-to-a-page-other-than-homepage/) * [Don Betts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbetts/) * (@dbetts) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-a-menu-to-a-page-other-than-homepage/#post-3495898) * Hope all goes well. I think you are right about the cut and paste – you likely entered or deleted something important. It’s all part of the growing pains – if I had a dollar for each time I used to have to reinstall themes… * Good luck! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Adding a menu to a page other than homepage](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-a-menu-to-a-page-other-than-homepage/) * [Don Betts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbetts/) * (@dbetts) * [13 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/adding-a-menu-to-a-page-other-than-homepage/#post-3495894) * It’s not a done deal, yet. We’ve all probably been in the same boat you’re in now and I’ve shed my own tears, but let’s see if we can get you back up and running. * Your site isn’t gone, it’s just that when you deleted what you had cut and pasted in you probably deleted something extra – it could be as little as a semicolon– and it’s giving you an error. Think of it as a locked door, but the house is still behind the door. Basically, the easiest thing to do is to reinstall your theme which will set everything back the way it was. Then you’ll be able to see you’re content again * 1. Download the theme again [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/blogolife](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/blogolife) and unzip the files onto your computer. * 1. FTP into your site’s files – your webhost will have instructions how to do that so look it up on their support pages if you don’t know how. Often they’ll have a web based FTP program you can use but if not they’ll should suggest some( depends on what OS you’re using) * 2. Once you’re connected via FTP you’ll see all the files that make up WordPress. Find the folder “wp-content” and then the folder “themes” * 3. Replace the “blogolife” folder with the one you just downloaded and unzipped( it will probably ask if you want to replace the folder and you do). * If all that has worked, you should be able to access your site again. When that’s done, drink a large glass of the beverage of your choice and feel your heart return to a normal pace, then we’ll deal with the menu again, if you’re up to it.
