No obviously not…! Quotes and their categories are safe in the database. Removing the options would reset the layout settings, if that’s what you mean by formatting. Anyway if you go to the “remove” page in quotes>remove you’ll see that “remove all quotes” and “remove all options” are different check-boxes.
Backup your database first if you want to be extra safe (via phpmyadmin or using a plugin like wp-dbmanager.)However, since you had the very latest version before, I’d be surprised if this downgrading business helps at all… And I am disappointed because I can’t imagine what your problem with the plugin is… except maybe some conflict with other scripts or plugins you might have recently added or edited?
Consider that on the SRQ page there is also a 1.9.8 revision that is brand new, although I am not sure it will fix anything for you.
keep me updated.
ciaoThere is no need to go back to 1.8.6. ALL old versions are available from the plugin pages here at the WordPress repository (Follow the “Other versions” link under the version number on the top right of the plugin page).
If you decide to downgrade: using the remove feature of the plugin deactivate the plugin AND delete its options from the database, then manually delete its folder.
But before you do please tell me: what version of SRQ were you running before upgrading to 1.9.7? I suspect it was quite a old version.
If it was 1.8.6 or around that number you could solve your problems by downgrading to 1.9.5 first.Let me know.
I am aware of the problem… actually and I have been banging my head against it for a while.
upon activation the plugin makes a comparison based on the version number after which some settings are created if the version number is older. The comparison for reasons unknown doesn’t work (possibly a PHP or SQL bug) and some of the settings are overwritten even if they exist already.
This problem is yet unsolved but with version 1.9.6 it won’t repeat itself because I disabled the comparison. So please download version 1.9.6. Let me know if it helps.

In reply to: [Plugin: Stray Random Quotes] Change the name for the link in pluginIt is on the settings page of Stray Random Quotes, the “AJAX settings” area where it says “the ajax loader”. It can also be changed on a per-widget per-tag per-shortcode basis. See the help page included in the plugin menu.

In reply to: how to list all active SHORTCODES?Thanks, that worked to output the array (I was using the wrong method).
Yet I am baffled because some of the shortcodes that are supposed to be there aren’t.
For example, nextgen shortcodes do not appear at all in the array, yet they seem to be created by the plugin with the regular add-shortcode method.
Any idea why?

In reply to: [Plugin: Stray Random Quotes] No quotes show on “Manage” pagethis sometimes happens when after some editing the management page tries to display quotes from a category that does not exists anymore, or from a nth page that does not exists. You can fix this by changing from which category to display quotes by default. This change can be applied either on the same manage page or on the settings page.
Let me know if this fixes your problem.…probably it is a javascript conflict. Try maybe to disable your other plugins or the scripts on the page until you find out which is causing the problem. Also take a look at the console or at firebug for error messages if you can. If you installed 1.9.5 recently, try also clearing the browser cache so that the new ajax files are loaded.

In reply to: [Plugin: Stray Random Quotes] Tagline quotes doesn’t work for meThe code you used is correct. It works in my tests.
What do you mean by “nothing shows up”? If it didn’t work, it would show “
[random-quote categories="tagline" noajax="true"]” instead of the tagline, and you would know something isn’t working.Please make sure that there are not other html elements loaded before the quote (via quotes>settings) that cause the quote to be hidden. For example a <div> or a <p> before the quotes could cause the tagline to slip out of the header and disappear.
