I created a website for our local film society that runs on WordPress. Other Film Society staff create links on Facebook that link to posts on our WordPress site usually via BIT.LY. * Recent links have all been displayed with a picture of my face! EG: * It seems that, by default, Facebook is displaying the Gravatar associated with the user account of the person who originally wrote the post on the WordPress site. (In this case, that’s me.) * How do we resolve this? Is it a FaceBook issue or a WordPress issue? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[OptionTree] [Plugin: OptionTree] Post / Posts / Custom Post should not be limited](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-optiontree-post-posts-custom-post-should-not-be-limited/) * Thread Starter [gambit37](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gambit37/) * (@gambit37) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-optiontree-post-posts-custom-post-should-not-be-limited/#post-1783233) * I’m wondering if there’s any news on this issue? Is there an official update coming that fixes the 5 limit for post selection?.

I also added ordering parameters. * I think category.php might need some love too — to enable ordering /sorting. * Perhaps you could also add sorting/ordering options for these types in the Option Tree settings? * Is the limit to 5 items a bug, or did I miss an option somewhere? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Verve Meta Boxes] [Plugin: Verve Meta Boxes] trashing and untrashing clears postmeta](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-verve-meta-boxes-trashing-and-untrashing-clears-postmeta/) * [gambit37](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gambit37/) * (@gambit37) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-verve-meta-boxes-trashing-and-untrashing-clears-postmeta/#post-1660805) * This problem also exists when you revert to a previous version of a post using the WordPress revision system: all the VMD metadata is lost. * This is a major bug, I’ve also sent an email about it to the author. Hopefully all instances of this problem will be fixed in the next version. * I’m no WP coding expert, but I don’t think that the workaround posted above is sufficient. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Verve Meta Boxes] [Plugin: Verve Meta Boxes] Requiring custom-fields "support" is inconvenient](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-verve-meta-boxes-requiring-custom-fields-support-is-unnecessary-and-inconvenient/) * [gambit37](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gambit37/) * (@gambit37) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-verve-meta-boxes-requiring-custom-fields-support-is-unnecessary-and-inconvenient/#post-1660804) * You can easily hide the Custom Fields meta box using a plugin such as Adminimize. * Forum: [Alpha/Beta/RC](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/alphabeta/) In reply to: [How to get functions like wp_get_archives to work with Custom Post Types?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-get-funcitons-like-wp_get_archives-to-work-with-custom-post-types/) * Thread Starter [gambit37](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gambit37/) * (@gambit37) * [16 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-get-funcitons-like-wp_get_archives-to-work-with-custom-post-types/#post-1497213) * I dip in and out of following WordPress development: I’m a bit out of the loop at the moment.

It does seem a strange design decision to exclude custom post types from working with many of the core WP functions. I realise that’s a big job, but it does seem strange to bring out such a great feature that’s already half crippled from the start. * One might have assumed that people will want to use all the standard WP functions with Custom Post Types and I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed when they discover that they can’t. It seems a bit of a missed opportunity. 🙁 * Forum: [Alpha/Beta/RC](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/alphabeta/) In reply to: [How to get functions like wp_get_archives to work with Custom Post Types?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-get-funcitons-like-wp_get_archives-to-work-with-custom-post-types/) * Thread Starter [gambit37](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gambit37/) * (@gambit37) * [16 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-get-funcitons-like-wp_get_archives-to-work-with-custom-post-types/#post-1497053) * Ah, right, thanks. Yes, I thought about this but still wanted to use some of the built in stuff like displaying them in dated archives. * What I’m trying to do is to have something like this: * [http://www.mysite.com/blog/](http://www.mysite.com/blog/) <- display using standard WP blog stuff [http://www.mysite.com/news/](http://www.mysite.com/news/) <- custom post types * For the News option, I’d ideally like to still filter them and manage them using all the standard WP functions. * I thought about doing them as category slugs instead and setting ‘Blog’ and ‘ News’ categories and not using custom post types for News. But to do this, I’d need to set the custom permalinks to “%category%” which I’ve read is a bad idea. * Do you have any views on this, or suggestions for other ways I can accomplish this and still retain the correct child URLs for the different areas? Eg: * [http://www.mysite.com/blog/title-of-post-in-blog-cat/](http://www.mysite.com/blog/title-of-post-in-blog-cat/) [http://www.mysite.com/news/title-of-post-in-news-cat/](http://www.mysite.com/news/title-of-post-in-news-cat/) * Many thanks for any insights 🙂 * Forum: [Alpha/Beta/RC](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/alphabeta/) In reply to: [How to get functions like wp_get_archives to work with Custom Post Types?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-get-funcitons-like-wp_get_archives-to-work-with-custom-post-types/) * Thread Starter [gambit37](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gambit37/) * (@gambit37) * [16 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-get-funcitons-like-wp_get_archives-to-work-with-custom-post-types/#post-1497024) * Hi, thanks for the reply. “Display the object in that post type” — not entirely sure what you mean by this?
