In reply to: [LDD Business Directory] HELP: backend access to all editors without logins?You shouldn’t have to do any editing at all.
I believe there was an option on the dashboard to turn off the submit button on the front end. From there, anyone with access to you dashboard can use the “add listing” feature.

In reply to: [Bitly's Wordpress Plugin] Latest update creating conflict with other pluginsGlad I could help, and sorry it temporarily broke those other plugins for you. Keep a eye open for an update this evening, I’ll keep truckin away at the issue until it’s figured out permanently. 🙂

In reply to: [LDD Business Directory] All info on listings pageThis will be easily doable in the next upgrade. There’s a folder full of templates that can be edited to change the way the directory displays any or all of it’s information.
Current ETA on the upgrade, I’m pushing as hard as I possibly can to make it by the end of this week.

In reply to: [LDD Business Directory] Image IssueIt looks like because there’s an apostrophe in the name of the listing, it’s trying to add the same apostrophe in the logo file name.
Nothing else to say except that was poor programming on the part of the original plugin.
The new version is literally JUST around the corner. If you’re interested in beta testing it, let me know. As of right now most of the functionality is working, we just have to keep battering it with tests to make sure it won’t cause any trouble out in the wild.

In reply to: [Bitly's Wordpress Plugin] Latest update creating conflict with other pluginsI’m unable to push an update out until later this evening. In the meantime you can either download and install the previous version from here (just overwrite the existing files); or, if you’re adventurous, you can comment out lines 213 and 214 of
wp-content/plugins/wp-bitly/wp-bitly.php(with two forward slashes at the start of each line, like this: //)It was an attempt to win a battle with Jetpack that took some collateral damage with it. I’ll have to explore different solutions for future versions.

In reply to: [Bitly's Wordpress Plugin] WP-Bitly 2.2.8 gives unwanted short URLsI had a sinking feeling that it might be overreaching. Maybe moving forward what needs to be done is to include a list of plugins that it’s permitted to override, and maybe even make it configurable from the dashboard…
If you feel up to editing, you can comment out lines 213 and 214 of
wp-content/plugins/wp-bitly/wp-bitly.php. If not, and completely understandable that you probably don’t want to, I’ll get an update out tonight after I get home from the office.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Bitly's Wordpress Plugin] Latest update creating conflict with other pluginsThey stopped working entirely?
Were there errors? What kind of behavior was encountered?
The link you posted doesn’t work?
Try 2.2.8 and see if that fixes your issue.
I tested this version multiple times with Jetpack and it was passing the shortlink for me, so I’ll cross my fingers that it does the same for you!
I’m trying to work out where this issue came from. All the same hooks as existed in version 1 are still there, and there’s even a couple extra now which are attempting to hook into
get_permalinkwhen called from within a plugin — which is what I believe Publicize is doing.From what I can tell it doesn’t request
wp_get_shortlink, it usesget_permalink. I have no idea why. While I’m trying to make WP Bitly compatible, it has been a pain, though I’m sure once I figure it out I’ll have a why didn’t I think of that sooner moment.I’ll be back shortly, I’m going to go play under the hood.

In reply to: [LDD Business Directory] Categories linkThis functionality is a part of the plugin as of right now, but I can’t guarantee a stable version release in the next two weeks.
As of right now we’ve begun the beta testing cycle, however I’m requesting that everyone who is testing run it only on a development or staging platform. It’s definitely not production ready – it’s very close, but not quite there yet.
I may be able to tag a more stable release candidate by the end of two weeks, which should be relatively safe for a production environment on the understanding that some features may still break or not function exactly right.

In reply to: [Bitly's Wordpress Plugin] Didn't create shortlink<link rel='shortlink' href='http://bit.ly/1l4m3j6' />It’s there. Maybe you’re expecting different behavior?
It doesn’t overwrite your permalinks, it generates a shortlink and returns it to all
the_shortlink()function calls. You can use the “get shortlink” button on the post page, the admin bar, and any plugins that callthe_shortlink()will use it (plugins that useget_permalink()for whatever g’danged reason don’t work as of yet, but I’m addressing that in the near future).Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Bitly's Wordpress Plugin] Didn't create shortlinkThere’s absolutely no reason you need to edit
wp-config.php, what’s giving you that idea?Double check the settings on the WordPress Settings > Writing page. Make sure the oauth field isn’t red, and that you have the appropriate post types selected.

In reply to: [LDD Business Directory] featured listing module ideaYou bet, this is actually our plan moving forward. As I’ve mentioned elsewhere, there is a fairly big update coming down the pipe. Some of the improvements we’re aiming at include the ability to install modules which will extend the capabilities of the base plugin.
If you’re interested in beta testing this release before it comes out on WordPress.org, drop me a line at mark at lddconsulting dot com, and I should be able to send you a pre-release copy within a few days to take a look at.

In reply to: [LDD Business Directory] No directory listingI’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that the current version of the plugin is incompatible with Multisite. In fact, I’m almost positive it would be, without even testing it.
We’re nearing completion on a very BIG upgrade, and aiming for release in the next couple of weeks. Prior to that, if you would be interested in beta testing on a multisite installation for us, drop me a line (mark at lddconsulting dot com) and I’ll send you a pre-release copy within the next couple of days.
