In reply to: [BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] [Plugin: BackWPup] Thank youWow, I just installed this too. INCREDIBLE!!! Really, really, great. Feature rich. Smooth. Zero problems backing up to my Dropbox.
Very nice job!
Griden, I have a satisfactory fix I’m using as a child theme. Here is the code to line 42 of index.php:
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // check if the post has a Post Thumbnail assigned to it. the_post_thumbnail(array(470,140)); } else { ?> <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/images/archive-thumbnail-placeholder.gif" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" /> <?php } ?>Example of it running: http://www.electrolund.com/

In reply to: [Plugin: File Gallery] Simple template not work..Aesqe, I have some more information for you. I disabled all plugins except for FG. I switched to Twenty Ten theme. The Simple gallery still isn’t loading the template.
My error console reports the following two warnings:
Warning: Use of getAttributeNode() is deprecated. Use getAttribute() instead. Source File: http://www.electrolund.com/2012/03/test-post-for-gallery-stuff/Warning: Use of attributes' specified attribute is deprecated. It always returns true.

In reply to: [Plugin: File Gallery] Simple template not work..Aesqe, I too am in this list. 🙂 I’m working on debugging it now.
Disabling and re-enabling FG didn’t help for me. Curiously, switching to the Twenty Eleven theme didn’t help either. For what it’s worth, I don’t have Thickbox plugin installed. But I believe WordPress core has thickbox included now, correct? Regardless, the javascript should be loading on its own.
I double-checked that the js file is in the FG Simple directory.
Here is a sample FG page, where a Simple implementation exists:
http://wp.me/p1uh1E-SnHave you looked at the help file?
http://<www.yoursite.com>/wp-content/plugins/file-gallery/help/index.html#custom_templatesLikely, you have a javascript collision problem. Perhaps your theme is already calling js? Try disabling your theme, enabling one of the default WordPress themes, and see if that works.
Thanks. I might add that it would be nice to have the option on non-image attachments to insert without the wp-includes icon. In my case, I’ve been using another plugin called “Link Indication” which will insert filetype icons, but to do so it requires that no <img src tag be preset on the a href.

In reply to: [File Gallery] [Plugin: File Gallery] EXIF in template?Aesqe, as I’m understanding your suggestion, this will only allow us to insert EXIF meta into a full gallery insertion, correct? In other words, when inserting a single photo, there currently is no way to get EXIF data inserted into the caption or description?
If that is correct, I guess this is more a complaint with WordPress’ media library and not offering more flexibility with EXIF at the time of importation.
Thanks, I’m excited that this has been covered and resolved already! I agree, a nice checkbox for users is ideal on future releases.
I should have added that my current upload workflow looks like this:
* On a Mac, using iPhoto, entering all my titles and descriptions
* Exporting photos with the option of embedding title/description into EXIF
* uploading said photos into WordPressI prefer to have my source app (iPhoto) be the controlling source of that metadata, rather than enter all of it in the WordPress end. So, thanks again!
Strategerizer, interesting that you found alttext displays by default. Perhaps the dev changed this in a recent release?
I don’t have much experience with the sidebar options. I do remember a while back that the alttext would not display in the sidebar widget, despite my efforts.
I looked at the /view folder of the plugin but didn’t even see a sidebar or widget PHP file, from which to start making changes. Hmm, I’ll have to do some more digging for you…

In reply to: How do I add featured image support to any theme?Everyone, there’s a much easier method from Mark’s blog. Put this in your functions.php:
add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' ); set_post_thumbnail_size( 80, 55, true ); // W x H, hard cropPut this in your index.php loop:
<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) { // the current post has a thumbnail the_post_thumbnail(); } else { // the current post lacks a thumbnail } ?>Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Album thumbnail link to post, not pageSpeggey, this is strange. I’m not seeing the problem you describe. When I make other gallery changes, my post ID link is holding.
carlbenton, how hard would it be to add a category dropdown which would would limit the quantity of the post dropdown? This would come in handy with a high post count.

In reply to: [Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Album thumbnail link to post, not pageSpeggey, can you define “change”? Like, an update to the NextGen plugin? I wouldn’t think that such an update would kill the link, since it’s a MySQL entry.

In reply to: [Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Album thumbnail link to post, not pageBravo, carlbenton! Wow, nice mod. Shame that this can’t be rolled into the source of NextGen, for when the plugin is updated, these changes will be lost.

In reply to: [Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Album Preview Images list limited.Wow, impressive! Sure enough, I typed in an image file name, and the drop down returned the ID number and image title. Wow!
Your work is quite impressive!
