In reply to: [Simple Share Buttons Adder] Not working Properly on Events PageSince All-in-One Calendar’s Events are a custom post type, I’d really love it if custom post types could be globally excluded from the Share Buttons adder. Adding the shortcode to hide the buttons to a few dozen or a few hundred items just makes it seem like there should be an easier way.
I like SSBA a lot, it loads much faster than the previous plugin I was using, but that previous plugin also had checkboxes to enable to disable buttons on CPTs in addition to regular posts and pages.
I will try this code out and see what happens…

In reply to: [Genesis Co-Authors Plus] No Guest Avatars with Genesis 2 and Minimum ProHave you resolved this yet? I have been building a dev site using Genesis 2.1.2 and Epik 1.4, and the guest avatars using the featured image seem to be working just fine.
I’m using Co-Authors Plus 3.1.1 and Genesis Co-Authors Plus 1.3 on that build.
I needed to use .homepage instead of #homepage. No worries.
But Jetpack causing links duplication was an interesting discovery 🙂 I started another topic for that one.
Found one small hitch with this solution… it makes the player have a left margin everywhere, not just in the excerpt.
Not the desired complete outcome, but I added the #home that the rest of that page uses and it doesn’t seem to be limiting it to just the homepage, and somehow added a second set of powerpress links (it didn’t do that on my test site)
It’s playing with my mind, I can tell 🙂
And adding spacing to the bottom of the grouping requires the spacing be added to the powerpress_links, not the container. I think I have a handle on it now.
So, what advantage does the Javascript skin on the player give, over just the default HTML5 player? Will future versions of Powerpress give the option to use the native HTML5 player without the MEJS overlay?
Since it’s there, I’d kinda like to play with it 🙂

In reply to: [Redirection] Redirection Count and Trailing Slashes…What worked for me was to create it as a regex, and use:
/old-url-to-redirect/?$
to catch the url with and without the trailing slash. It works on 2 sites I’m using Redirection on.
What I’d love is if Redirection also gave us the option of making 410 redirects as well.
Add one more to the list of folks seeing the “Tweet sent successfully” message when editing any published post, but it seems like those messages are only showing up on posts that were auto-tweeted. Older posts that weren’t auto-tweeted don’t display that message if I open them to edit.
Startled me the first time I saw it, I thought I’d accidentally double-tweeted something, LOL

In reply to: [Redirection] Limits on number of redirects?I think I figured out what’s going on.
When you add a redirect, the actual URLs entered stay present in the fields. When those fields are not empty, re-ordering the redirects fails.
That’s why navigating away from the Redirection settings and back again fixes the problem… it clears those “Add new redirection” fields.

In reply to: [Redirect List] Sorting or Exporting?That’s exactly why sorting the redirects could be considered important… even being able to export my list, re-order it and import it again is a big help.
If Google reports new 404s to me, and I need one of those new ones to be a higher priority than just the last one added to the list, there was no way for me to add it higher up in the list, other than move another redirect out and replace it with the new one. That was a very tedious process.
This import/export feature might solve that problem… we’ll see 🙂

In reply to: [WP Recent Comments With Avatars] One minor change?Hi Jeff! (I’ve commented on WP Tavern as just Summer)
I was worried about the length of the comments as well, mostly because I’d increased it from the default 50 chars to 75 chars.
So far, one thing I’ve noticed is that having the post titles has encouraged a few more drive-by commenters when they can see what the topic is they’re commenting on, so I’m inclined to leave it for now (especially since several of the sites I’ve implemented this on have wider sidebars).
I dunno, maybe I’m just encouraging the random argumentative types, but so far it hasn’t raised any complaints about them yet.
I’m also just tickled I figured out the strings and get it to work 🙂

In reply to: [WP Recent Comments With Avatars] One minor change?I poked around in the plugin code, and modified the line that prints the output to get what I wanted, which was the comment author, followed by the link to the comment with the post name, followed by the snippet of comment (which I increased to 75 chars)
Just edit the plugin file wp-recent-comments-with-avatars.php, look for the comment that starts with “translators”, and replace the sprintf statement.
This is what I changed it to, and it works on two sites I modified the plugin on:
/* translators: comments widget: 1: comment author, 2: post link, 3: comment text */ sprintf(_x('%1$s on %2$s: %3$s', 'widgets'),'<b>'. get_comment_author(). '</b>:',' <a href="' . esc_url( get_comment_link($comment->comment_ID) ). '">' . get_the_title($comment->comment_post_ID) . '</a>', trim(mb_substr(strip_tags($comment->comment_content), 0, 75))) . '</li>';Hope this helps others!
I’m not working with CM Downloads Manager Pro… I’m testing out CM Downloads free version to see if it might be a viable alternative to to Pro version of WP Download Manager, which my client already bought and has had nothing but problems with since.
If it works, they may purchase the Pro version of your plugin. It’s the “working” part we’re still working on
I can’t seem to be able to use your contact form… whatever image is coming up for Verify is broken, won’t load for me.
However playing around with the plugins, the culprit appears to be WP UI Tabs, Accordions, Sliders. When I deactivate it, the spontaneous downloads thing goes away AND the problem with being logged in or not also goes away. Haven’t tried it yet with the other themes that it was having problems with, but that seems to be causing the operational anomalies.
For me, this is a conundrum, because the client site I’m testing your plugin for uses WP UI… I’m looking for possible alternatives to Download Manager Pro, if we can’t get it to behave.
http://testing.atouchofsummer.com/cmdownloads/
I can see the main downloads menu, but when I’m not logged in, it tells me I can’t view the page of the item I want to download.
When I am logged in, it automatically downloads the item when I click on the page.
I tried testing it out with the TwentyThirteen theme, and it doesn’t work at all.
Switching to TwentyTwelve exhibits the same behavior as the Genesis 2 sample theme, auto-downloads when selecting an item, and the error message that I can’t see the item page unless I’m logged in.
On second thought, I guess the other features for non-logged in users to view available downloads is only available in the Pro version as well?
