In reply to: [Create] How to exactly use Recipe CardsHello,
Create was developed so you can have a card attached to multiple posts if you desire. Because of this, the title, main featured image, and category for a card is decoupled from the title, featured image, and category of a post.
Since all themes are different, some will display the post’s featured image at the top and others won’t.
One solution would be to use different images for both the card and post featured image.
Another solution, and this is most common of other users, is to add the post content before the recipe, and then have the recipe at the bottom. This provides content for SEO purposes, while keeping enough space between the featured post image and the main recipe image.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.

In reply to: [Create] Reviews brokenHello,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention, and for linking to your page.
Regarding the white box: what you’re seeing is the prompt for users to leave a full review for the card. It looks like the following piece of CSS is included on your page and preventing the form from rendering.
.mv-create-card .mv-create-wrapper .mv-create-meta-flex form { display: none; }Regarding the translations: it looks like the current version is missing the correct translation string in the .pot file. We’ll have this fixed in the next release, 1.4.9. The strings you’ll need translations for are “%s Reviews” and “%s Stars.” Thanks for catching this!
Best,
Ethan Butler

In reply to: [Create] Alignment a skewed on category pagesHi,
It looks like its related to the fact that its a full width page, which isn’t a super common case.
Here is a little CSS you could add that might help.
.category .mv-list-card { margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; }Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Create] translate to SpanishHi,
For translations, we provide a .pot file inside the languages directory of the plugin. This source file allows users to provide their own translations. On translate.wordpress.org, users can provide translations to the community. At this time, it doesn’t look like Spanish translations are available.
If you’d like to provide your own translations, you can download a translation program such as Poedit. Open our .pot file (/wp-content/plugins/mediavine-create/language/mediavine-create.pot/) and you’ll be able to write your own translations, export them as .po/.mo files, and upload to your server in the same directory as the .pot file.
Here’s more information on how the WordPress.org translation process works.
I hope this is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions.

In reply to: [Create] 5 Star RatingsHello,
Sorry for the delay, we have a seperate import plugin and if you are using a previous plugin that we support, it will transfer the ratings.

In reply to: [Create] getting errors on site when plugin activatedHi,
Sorry for the delay.
We’re pretty sure something is wrong at the server level, could you send an email to create@mediavine.com so we can try to gather more information privately?

In reply to: [Create] Very powerful, but too many thumbnailHey @victorhugo,
Thank you for your feedback.
We will be working on an new templating system and will have a new system of clearer documentation when the new templates are released. However, WordPress development knowledge is still expected for someone utilizing custom templates.
Due to the nature of WordPress’s image size generation, when an image size is added to WordPress, it will create those sizes for all images. This is done so that images can be selected within various plugins and themes using the same image.
Having multiple images sizes of the same ratio is also not a bad thing as it allows more image sizes to be in the same
srcsetfor an image, giving users on various screen sizes an optimal and faster experience.However, because we understand that some sites may need to be more concerned about the number of files created, Create has the ability to limit the number of sizes generated. The function provided below can be added as a separate plugin or in your
functions.phpfile.A few caveats here:
- If an image is not big enough to be cropped down by WordPress, then the ratio will be incorrect, and Google schema will recognize them.
- If you need a smaller image because of that, you should remove one of the higher resolution images, and add mv_create_{size}_high_res to the array of sizes to be unset.
- This will only affect new images, and not the ones that have had images already generated. To remove those images, you will need to manually find those images and remove them, they will be the ones ending in: 200×200, 320×320, 480×480, 320×240, 480×360, 320×180, 480×270
- If you decide to manually remove images, be careful, as other plugins and/or your theme may be using that image size somewhere.
function remove_mv_create_image_sizes( $img_sizes ) { $img_sizes_to_remove = array( 'mv_create_1x1', 'mv_create_1x1_medium_res', 'mv_create_1x1_medium_high_res', 'mv_create_4x3', 'mv_create_4x3_medium_res', 'mv_create_4x3_medium_high_res', 'mv_create_16x9', 'mv_create_16x9_medium_res', 'mv_create_16x9_medium_high_res', ); foreach ( $img_sizes_to_remove as $img_size_to_remove ) { unset( $img_sizes[ $img_size_to_remove ] ); } return $img_sizes; } add_filter( 'mv_create_image_sizes', 'remove_mv_create_image_sizes' );Seth Alling

In reply to: [Create] Questions in mindHi @keshabee! Thanks for your question!
Our plugin focuses on providing users with an admin-facing interface to create various Schema-based content, as this is the primary method of content-creation in WordPress. We do not plan to add any front-end functionality for creating content.
Thanks again!

In reply to: [Create] Rating section doesn’t appear in the recipe cardHi there!
I took another look on your site and it looks like the ratings section is showing again, so I’m going to mark this thread as resolved.
Please let us know if you have any further issues!

In reply to: [Create] Can a user post a recipe?Hi there!
Thanks for your question. User-posted recipes/content is not a feature of Create by Mediavine, and is probably not something we will support in the future, either. Hope you can still find use for it!

In reply to: [Create] Can I delete old plugins after installing Create by Mediavine?Hi there!
That is correct. Once you’ve imported and verified your recipes and have transferred them to your posts, you’re free to remove the Mediavine Recipe Importer plugin–all of your data is in Create by Mediavine. 🙂
Thanks!

In reply to: [Create] Rating section doesn’t appear in the recipe cardHi,
Looking at the page output, it appears there is a javascript error coming from your main javascript file. It looks like you are using the Merge + Minify + Refresh plugin, to combine all javascript into that single file.
It’s likely there’s another plugin that has its javascript combined in the same file, which is causing the Create javascript to not run properly. Without out this javascript, the ratings on cards will not work.

In reply to: [Create] Errors while printingHello,
We will look at resolving that conflict if possible.
In the meantime this is a PHP warning so it’s possible that if you turn off the WP debug log it will prevent the warning from displaying while we investigate this conflict.
Thanks for the link.

In reply to: [Create] Errors while printingHi,
It appears to be a conflict with the “unyson” plugin.
Could you provide any more information about that plugin?
