@kennethw – Please open a new thread to ask you question, don’t hijack an existing conversation.
Version 2.3.1 added a line in
openfile.phpthat attempts to prevent loading remote content. Unfortunately, it’s dependent on$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']which might not work in all situations.So go into
openfile.phpand remove these two lines from near the top of the file:if ( strpos( $_GET['file'], (isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) ? 'https://' : 'http://') . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] ) === false ) die();That should hopefully fix the problem. If it does, great! If not, let me know. Either way, it means I still need to fix something …
Which version of the plugin are you using? I have an idea of what might be going on, but need to check version numbers to be sure.
You haven’t given me enough details here to figure out what’s going on. A link to the site … link to the file … link to the broken publication … all would help.
And I can’t email people for whom I don’t have email addresses 🙂

In reply to: WP – Publications Archive conflict with ALO NewsletterWhich version of each plugin are you using? Knowing this is vital to me being able to reproduce it locally so I can test and come up with a solution for you.

In reply to: WordPress on googlesitesThe answer is “maybe” depending on how you want to integrate it.
If you want
richard-miller.co.ukto be run on WordPress, then the answer is no. If your site is already running on Google Sites, you have to remember that Google Sites is not a web host, they are a website platform. You can’t install extra software on top of that.If you want a WordPress blog to run as a subdomain, i.e.
blog.richard-miller.co.uk, then the answer is maybe. You’ll need to:- Find a web host (like 1and1, MediaTemple, BlueHost, HostGator, etc).
- Point the subdomain at your web host
- Install WordPress on the webhost
Unfortunately, this will essentially split your site. Your main site (
richard-miller.co.uk) will still be hosted by Google Sites in one place, and your blog (blog.richard-miller.co.uk) will be hosted elsewhere and run using WordPress.So it’s possible … but highly depending on what exactly you mean by integrating your site and how much work you want to do to get things launched.

That’s a new one. Thanks for the report.
I’ve added an open issue here: https://github.com/ericmann/WP-Publication-Archive/issues/5
Thanks for pointing this out. Unfortunately, I don’t have an IIS setup I can test it in so I can’t reproduce this locally. If you find anything out, though, please let me know and I’ll see what I can do to patch it.

In reply to: [Plugin: WP Publication Archive] Uploaded files not showingAt this time, you have to upload and mark one file at a time. Other uploads are ignored by the plugin because, really, a Publication is meant to map specific meta information to one file only.
I’ll look into a multi-file upload feature in a future version.

In reply to: [Plugin: WP Publication Archive] Uploaded files not showingHow are documents linked to a category or publication? Can this be verified from the control panel?
Documents are linked to Publications the same way images are linked to posts/pages.
Publications in this context are just a custom post type within WordPress. They’re like a post or a page, but with different information. The actual file you upload is stored in the database as an “attachment” the same way images are, but the publication references it through a custom meta field.
When you click “Upload Publication” you’re adding a new attachment. You also have to click “Insert into Post” once it’s done uploading to automatically insert the attachment URL into the publication’s URL field.
When uploading I would assume it is linked to the publication automatically. Afterwards there is no indication of how to view which documents are associated with a category or publication – as far as I can tell…
It sounds like you skipped the “Insert into Post” step when you uploaded the document. The only indication of which file is linked to a Publication is the URL actually entered on the page. It’s built this way so that you can include externally-hosted files in your publication archive in addition to files you upload yourself.
You can see which Publications are in a particular category by going to the main Publications screen (where it lists all of your publications) and selecting a Category from the drop down list to filter the display.
@nvisioncurtis – Please open a new forum topic … don’t post in an already “resolved” thread.
When you do open a new topic, please post complete step-by-step details of how you got to where you’re at so I can try to reproduce the problem.
