@thomasvalera,

Props for looking at the release notes (I don’t think many do).

Those specific filters are primarily used internally (however they are available publicly as well).

These facilitate the ability to add settings fields in the Nooz > Settings page.

To get an idea of how they work you can take a look at inc/NoozRelease.php (or inc/class-release.php in the up-coming 1.4 release).

@robbyvoxy, I forgot to mention, the above code sample will work with Nooz version 1.2.0

Again, thank you for your input .. the Nooz plugin just got a little better!

@robbyvoxy,

Here is a solution using post “custom-fields”:

https://gist.github.com/farinspace/6046bd9c5ab9e1acaef63d4c9db0344c

We’ve discussed adding support for categories and tags to Nooz in a future version, which would make this easier as well.

Let me know if this works for you.

With a little more investigating (albeit limited), I’ve taken a look at the following page:

Changing the Game
https://www.mynd.co/press/changing-the-game/

And I have found the following clues:

* this page do not exist at the above URL “/press/[page-slug]”
* this page when using “/press-release/[page-slug]” will redirect to “/[page-slug]”, example: https://www.mynd.co/changing-the-game/ (this URL works)
* when viewing page source the css classes of the body-tag for this page include “single-post”, if this were a press release page created with Nooz, the css class should be “single-nooz_release”
* I also checked the RSS feeds for post type “nooz_release” using the following url: https://www.mynd.co/feed/?post_type=nooz_release , I do see the press release in there.
* additionally I also see the blog post here: https://www.mynd.co/feed/?post_type=post&paged=11

So …

with the above clues, it seems like you have two version of this page, one is a regular blog “post”, and the other is a nooz “press release” page. WordPress may be getting confused as to which version to show.

Hopefully the above clues help you further.

Some things to try:

* remove the blog post versions
* try creating a testing press release page with random text for the “slug/url”, see if that page works
* again do Settings > Permalinks and pressing the “Save Changes” button

Hi @sandeejackson,

We are also excited, we hope to keep an active release schedule this year and into the future.

I can’t say immediately if this is caused by Nooz, as it initially sounds like behavior of the default WordPress editor.

– To test this: on a fresh install or when Nooz is deactivated, check if the same behavior happens on a regular “page” or “post”.

On a side-note, Nooz does do some minor formatting of the “dateline” … combining it with the first paragraph. However, this can be disabled on a per-press-release basis by clicking the “Edit” link near the dateline.

I’ll do some troubleshooting and keep an eye on this thread.

@dwsdolce, thanks again for the bug report.

v1.1.0 should take care of the following issues:

– sub headline on newly created press-releases were not showing up, this should be fixed now.

– I’ve added a couple more options to make dateline a little more flexible. On a per-press-release basis you are able to hide the dateline completely. Additionally in “Nooz > Settings > Press Release” there is a new option called “Dateline Format” which will allow you to format all datelines and/or remove it completely.

Please let me know if you have any other issues and if you have a moment please write a plugin review. Positive reviews helps us to continue our free plugin development efforts.

Thanks again!

Hi @talentoracle,

The run-together of the location/date and excerpt in the list of press release posts is a bug. Our latest version fixes this issue, however it is currently NOT released publicly yet.

Below I have provided the immediate fix. You will have to add the following to your functions.php file:

add_filter( 'get_the_excerpt', 'my_nooz_press_release_excerpt', 10, 2 );
function my_nooz_press_release_excerpt( $output, $post ) {
    if ( 'nooz_release' == $post->post_type ) {
        $length = apply_filters( 'excerpt_length', 55 );
        $ending = apply_filters( 'excerpt_more', ' ' . '[…]' );
        $output = ! empty( $post->post_excerpt ) ? $post->post_excerpt : wp_trim_words( $post->post_content, $length, $ending );
    }
    return $output;
}

Additionally add the following if you would also like to have the location/date in the excerpts.

add_filter( 'get_the_excerpt', 'my_nooz_press_release_excerpt_with_location_and_date', 10, 2 );
function my_nooz_press_release_excerpt_with_location_and_date( $output, $post ) {
    if ( 'nooz_release' == $post->post_type ) {
        $location = get_option( 'mdnooz_release_location' );
        $date_format = get_option( 'mdnooz_release_date_format' ) ? wp_kses_data( strip_tags( get_option( 'mdnooz_release_date_format' ) ) ) : get_option( 'date_format' );
        $date = get_the_date( $date_format );
        $output = $location . '—' . $date . ' ' . $output;
    }
    return $output;
}
