In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Caption or excerpts to lightboxTry using the gallery template, you can simply add it to your shortcode
[catablog category="cat" template="gallery"]The description should now be displayed under the title of the catalog item, below the image in the LightBox. If your savvy with html/css you can mimic this template to get “captions” in your LightBox.
Good luck and if you run into problems try using the TwentyTen theme with all other plugins disabled. If it works then, simply turn plugins and theme back on one at a time until you find the conflict.
If you have to do this, then I would add CSS overrides to hide the fields, either by hooking a stylesheet from your theme into the Admin or by directly editing the admin stylesheet for CataBlog. The second option is a poor choice because if you ever upgrade the plugin you will loose your customization.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Catablog "select images" button disappearedDid you upgrade CataBlog, your theme or any other plugins recently? Can you try setting your theme to TwentyTen and disabling all other plugins, then trying to upload images again.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] How can I get rid of "phantom" thumbnails?You are experiencing a CSS quirk or error. My suggestion would be to remove the catablog-images-column from your template and to also override your theme’s rule to pad every image by 20 pixels, it is causing your images to be wider then the .catablog-row. A suggestion or place to start for styles and template changes
// Styles .catablog-row { height: 100px !important } .catablog-row .catablog-image img { padding: 0px; } // Template <div class='catablog-row %CATEGORY-SLUGS%'> %MAIN-IMAGE% %TITLE% %DESCRIPTION% </div>Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Catablog Search from Catablog LibraryYup, very reasonable feature request. Will put it on the list of future enhancements, but please realize that CataBlog is not going to see to many new feature in the near future. I’ve recently started a new full time position as a software engineer, and it doesn’t leave me a lot of time to work on CataBlog.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Version that works with WP 2.8.6?Almost all the recent versions of CataBlog require WordPress 3.0+, but I highly recommend using at least 3.1, since there were a lot of bugs in 3.0.x. This is because CataBlog requires custom post types to save and retrieve catalog items.
You can look through CataBlog’s SVN repository, the tags directory are all the different versions. The readme.txt file contains the minimum version of WordPress necessary.
Good luck 🙂

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Huge Space with CatablogYou have a CSS issue, something is clearing your floats, those causing all the catalog items after the first one to be forced to the bottom of the page. You might notice a similar issue if you uploaded a few images into any post/page and floated them all on the left as well.
You will have to modify your theme’s style.css file to fix this. I highly recommend using a tool such as Firebug or the web developer tools in Chrome to figure out what exactly your problem is.
Do you have a template of what the authorize.net form should look like? That is definitely the first step.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] PayPal buttonWhat aspect of the buttons need to be different? This is why the token system is in place, so that the value, name, etc can be variable for each button. If you need to appearance of the button to change you can make some slick css tricks using the %CATEGORY-SLUGS% token.

In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Links from thumbnail images not workingYou need to make sure to turn off the LightBox feature. You can turn on/off the LightBox feature in the LightBox tab of the CataBlog Options Admin Panel. Next edit the link field in your CataBlog items to either use the complete permalink or the permalink without the domain with a slash in front. examples:
Good http://www.mydomain.com/2012/04/12/my-post-is-fun/ /2012/04/12/my-post-is-fun/ Bad www.mydomain.com/2012/04/12/my-post-is-fun/ 2012/04/12/my-post-is-fun/After you set the link field to the correct value go and try your thumbnail links again. If they still don’t work then you need to edit the template and add the %LINK% token into the a tags href attribute. Find the anchor tag with a class of catablog-image,
<a href="..." class="catablog-image">, and make the href attribute the %LINK% token. example:<a href="%LINK%" class="catablog-image" %LINK-REL% %LINK-TARGET%>Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [CataBlog] [Plugin: CataBlog] Huge Space with CatablogUntil you fix this problem I am unable to help you. How are you with CSS? Have you looked into using tools such as the Chrome developer tools or Firefox firebug for modifying CSS properties and seeing the results in real time. Super helpful tools.
