I noticed that newly downloaded images that were not existing in the media library will create a new “attachment” during the import, as seen on WP All Import’s logs. I then remembered that Greg mentioned “attachment” above, which was spot on … thanks Greg! * I confirmed this on my live site by doing a re-import and I unchecked “Search through the media library for existing images…” which will trigger new downloads, and I was finally able to import images successfully. * Thanks again! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WPAdverts - Classifieds Plugin] WP All Import Add On](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-all-import-add-on/) * [jayc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcastillo/) * (@jcastillo) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-all-import-add-on/#post-10413248) * Hi gstar, I’m also trying to import listings to wpadverts using WP All Import, and I haven’t figured out how to include pictures. * Can you please share how you were able to do this? * Thanks in advance! - This reply was modified 7 years, 11 months ago by [jayc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcastillo/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Advanced Classifieds & Directory Pro] Expired ads management](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/expired-ads-management/) * Thread Starter [jayc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcastillo/) * (@jcastillo) * [8 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/expired-ads-management/#post-9550666) * Hello, thanks for the solution to #1, I’ll apply this as soon as possible. I look forward to having this as an option in the future. Thanks again! * As for #2, I noticed that expired listings will eventually not show up when using the search widget, and this will happen after the listing status becomes “privately published” (I think this is also done by a cron job). This will however cause the same 404 error because those privately published listings will not be accessible from the frontend. * I was hoping there’s a way to do a bulk exclude from search by adding all expired listings to an “expired” category, and then anything in the expired category is excluded in the search widget. I found the “Search Exclude” plugin that can exclude individual listings from the search widget where the listings can still be found and accessed from google search (perfect for SEO). But since I have to tick a checkbox in each listing individually, it’s virtually impossible to use if i have thousands of expired listings. Any ideas? * Thanks again for the great plugin! - This reply was modified 8 years, 7 months ago by [jayc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcastillo/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Advanced Classifieds & Directory Pro] Location taxonomy hierarchical permalink structure](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/location-taxonomy-hierarchical-permalink-structure/) * Thread Starter [jayc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcastillo/) * (@jcastillo) * [8 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/location-taxonomy-hierarchical-permalink-structure/#post-9471117) * Okay, will check it out.

I also posted there, but no replies whatsoever. * Regarding the cron, I noticed I had one instance of dsq_sync_forum when everything was fine, then it became 3 at about the time when syncing stopped working so I disabled it (syncing wasn’t working anyway) and then all the instances in the cron were gone. * Looking forward to your findings, thanks! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Disqus Conditional Load] Comment Script not working or Comments not synching even after update](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-script-not-working-or-comments-not-synching-even-after-update/) * [jayc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcastillo/) * (@jcastillo) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-script-not-working-or-comments-not-synching-even-after-update/page/2/#post-7483939) * Hi Seph, the duplicates? Not yet completely. Already deleted about 4 thousand rows for a few posts. Planning to do it through phpmyadmin soon, just need to check if it’s safe to do, then I’ll see if syncing will be back to normal. * Here’s a screenshot of the custom fields in post editor so you’ll have an idea: * [http://prntscr.com/blbgwb](http://prntscr.com/blbgwb) * Do you have something similar? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Disqus Conditional Load] Comment Script not working or Comments not synching even after update](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-script-not-working-or-comments-not-synching-even-after-update/) * [jayc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcastillo/) * (@jcastillo) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-script-not-working-or-comments-not-synching-even-after-update/#post-7483936) * I also noticed the same problem, disqus comments don’t sync to wordpress. This problem started for my blog last June 14, 2016, when I was using the official disqus plugin. Manual syncing does not help, it just appears to run indefinitely. * After finding DCL two days ago, I replaced the official disqus plugin with it and I’m very happy, but still, syncing does not work. * Anyway, I would like to share some of my findings, which are not being answered in the support section of the official disqus plugin. * One thing I noticed is there are a lot of duplicate custom fields “dsq_needs_sync” in most of my posts (you have to enable custom fields under screen options to see this), although I’m not sure this is related to the syncing problem. I already checked and there are more than 400,000 rows in the table post_meta where meta_key is “dsq_needs_sync” and has a value of “1”. Very few are null. * I suspect the cron for syncing comments is adding these each time it runs, so I disabled syncing for now. Comments from disqus still appear okay at the frontend. The only problem is syncing to the backend in wordpress does not work. * Do you guys think this has anything to do with the syncing problem? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Disqus Comment System] New comments not syncing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-comments-not-syncing/) * [jayc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcastillo/) * (@jcastillo) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-comments-not-syncing/#post-7448616) * I also noticed the same problem, disqus comments don’t sync to wordpress.
