No response, marking as resolved.
Information on Organize Series translation/localization is found here -> http://organizeseries.com/translating-organize-series/
IF that particular string cannot be localized then its possible you’ve found a place where we missed adding the necessary functions to enable internationalization (transalations for that string). If so, let me know where you are changing this and I can take a look.

In reply to: [Issues and Series for Newspapers, Magazines, Publishers, Writers] CSS BrokenSorry for the delay, but can you elaborate on what you mean by “css does not work”?
Hi bobbybosler,
You should be able to accomplish this functionality via the Organize Series Extra Tokens addon (available at organizeseries.com). We added some extra tokens and a extra series template for displaying unpublished posts in series to users.
However, displaying these posts on the series archive page would be accomplished by modifying the loop in your template so it returns draft posts (or draft titles). That is not something Organize Series (or any current addons) enables.
This is a theme design issue, not an Organize Series issue. Organize Series automatic insertion of series information via the WordPress “the_content” and “the_excerpt” hooks. The theme is likely using “the_content()” or “the_excerpt()” WordPress functions somewhere on the home page.
To fix, you can go to the Organize Series optinos page and disable the automatic adding of series meta information (a checkbox at the top of the page). Keep in mind though, that you’ll also see the series meta information disappear everywhere else. You’ll have to add it manually using the functions available in the orgSeries-template-tags.php file.
Hi Priscilla,
It’s loading fine on the sites I have Organize Series installed on. There may be a conflict with another plugin?What version of PHP is your server running?
Sorry for this, it’s will take too long for me to get into the technical reasons for this but the easiest way to resolve this for now is to turn off the automatic insertion of series meta information (via Organize Series options page) and explicitly use the
wp_series_meta_write()function in your theme files where you want the meta information to show.All the organize series template functions you can use are found in the
orgSeries-template-tags.phpfile and the code there is fairly commented. Hopefully that will help you 🙂With one clarification. Make sure that none of your posts/pages have the same name/slug as the slug for series (set in Organize Series options)
It shouldn’t
I’m going to mark this as resolved becuase the fix is in this thread and will be included in the next release of Organize Series.
you’re better option is to learn how WordPress actions and filters work and use that instead of directly modifying the core.
For instance, you could use the “remove_action()” function to remove the existing action Organize Series has in place and then add your own add_action() to implement what you did above.
If you put this in your themes functions.php file then you don’t ever have to worry about “keeping track” of the changes when you update the plugin.
This doesn’t appear to be a bug. I can’t reproduce it on any of my installs using the latest version.
Usually when this happens it’s because a plugin or theme is conflicting. I noticed in your screenshot there is some text – “Sidebar Options”… that is not included in Organize Series, so I would start by deactivating whatever plugin/theme introduces that and see if that fixes the issue.
I strongly urge you NOT to modify core files of any plugin or theme Why? Because you’ll lose those modifications when you update the plugin or theme. If you plan on keeping track of your changes and putting them back everytime a plugin/theme is updated then that’s your call of course.
I’m sorry I can’t give you help beyond that, my time is limited and I have to reserve some time for customers who have purchased my basic support package.
Hi there,
The most accurate way to modify the location of series meta information is to remove the automatic insertion of series_meta information (via the Series Options page) and use the function for outputting that meta information directly in your theme files. All the functions that can be used in theme files are found in the orgSeries-template-tags.php file (with inline comments).
That should get you pointed in the right direction.
