In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Upload Error?Your memory problems could be caused by lots of things besides CataBlog, including WordPress itself. I would be very surprised if WordPress’ memory foot print didn’t enlarge significantly with the newer 3.4 releases. Did you upgrade WordPress as well?
CataBlog can only use what memory is left on your server after WordPress and other software claim theres. There is no way to know who is the culprit, short of watching your server’s resources in a tool such as top.
I have had this problem in the past as well, my personal recommendation is to get a server with at least 128MB of memory for WordPress. It speeds things up and makes WordPress such a better product when you give it extra memory, just like Photoshop, MS Word or any other program on your computer.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Library Entry DescriptionIt is a CSS conflict, if you disable all your plugins and temporarily switch over to the twenty-ten theme it will most likely fix itself. You can then enable your custom theme and plugins, one at a time, checking to see which plugin/theme makes the text and background in your TinyMCE editor white. Good luck.
Unfortunately this isn’t possible out the box with CataBlog. You would need to override the rendering of every so many catalog items with the ad. It’s doable, but not supported without hacking CataBlog or building PHP code on top.
If you want to work with HTML script or embed tags I recommend you add it to the CataBlog Template instead of in the catalog item’s description. You can edit your default CataBlog template in the admin section.
You could use the %PRODUCT-CODE% token to add any customization to the Adsense tags for each catalog item if needed.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Spaces between thumbnailsYou need to add this to your theme’s css or in a catablog.css file in your theme directory. Play with the pixel amount to space the squares further apart.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] "Previous" shows when only one page availableYou can also add this to your site’s CSS code, without hacking the plugin, to stop the previous link from appearing.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Lightbox Full size imageGlad to hear you found a solution. Marking this thread as resolved. Thanks 🙂
BTW, I am the creator of CataBlog, and my name is Zach 🙂
Hi slimsc5, you seen to have invalid HTML, I am not surprised that IE8 cannot play nice with your html markup. I would advice you to fix these errors and then try IE8, here is a link to your reviews page, which I assume is made by CataBlog and displaying poorly.

This problem is most likely not due to CataBlog itself. I would also make sure you are adhering to strict html guidelines, like no block html elements inside inline html elements.
Another issue could be your site’s CSS code, but before messing with that I would get your html code straight.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Lightbox Full size imageYou will need to hack the catablog lightbox javascript file yourself. Sorry, if I get some more time I will possibly post instructions here on hacking it.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Lost all galleriesThe gallery entries are stored in the wp_posts table under the catablog-gallery post-type. Good luck, sorry to hear about the hack. BTW, a WordPress export will allow you export CataBlog Items and Galleries with the rest of your site.
Good luck.
This is probably a Javascript error, can you open up a Javascript console using Firebug or Chrome Developer Tools? If so, would you please send me any error or bugs that are reported when you change the thumbnail size. I have had others report similar incidents and still cannot reproduce this bug myself, so its really hard to diagnose.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Caption or excerpts to lightboxWait, you did or did not need to use catablog-row? Was it the id that was breaking it, or the lack of catablog-row? Glad to hear you got it working, can you mark this thread as resolved please.
Also, I’ll try and update the CataBlog Template documents with whatever your answer is to my questions. Thanks!

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Caption or excerpts to lightboxAlso, I am pretty sure the
catablog-rowclass is necessary for the LightBox to function properly. So make sure to at least add that class to the wrapping div tag.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Caption or excerpts to lightboxActually, your lucky the LightBox is working at all. You shouldn’t use ids in your CataBlog template at all, this is because two elements cannot have the same id in valid HTML. Try this instead:
<div class="catablog-row gallery"> <span> <a href="%LINK%" class="catablog-image" %LINK-TARGET% %LINK-REL%> <img src="%IMAGE-THUMBNAIL%" alt="" /> </a> </span> <div class="catablog-description"> <p>%DESCRIPTION%</p> </div> </div>You will also have to update your site’s CSS, use
.catablog-row.galleryinstead of#galleryin your selector path.
