    Hi thnkmarketing,

    I have a few questions that could help me figure this out:

    – When you are on the ticker admin (config) page, does the ticker display in the preview section at the bottom?

    – Does your theme modify how you should use shortcodes? Normally the shortcode for our ticker should look something like [stock-ticker] or [stock-ticker name="example"]

    – Can you get the stock ticker to display if you put it instead in a PHP widget or other PHP capable area? The code would be <?php echo do_shortcode('[stock-ticker]'); ?> Replace [stock-ticker] with the appropriate shortcode in your case.

    Hi, I’m looking at the new version. Thanks for taking our recommendations into account.

    After looking it over.
    app/campaign_log.php
    1) die(‘<H1>Can\’t include config. Report to etruel@gmail.com</H1>’);
    should be changed to reference initializing (or bootstrapping) wordpress instead of the config file.
    Also, it might make sense for this
    2) include(‘wp-includes/pluggable.php’);
    this could possibly be removed? (I haven’t tested).
    If wordpress has been initialized by wp-load.php then including plugable separately is probably un-necessary.

    Hi Bevmaree,

    Our ticker should be compatible with the latest versions of WordPress.

    As far as the theme goes, that isn’t a theme I’ve tested, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. Feel free to give it a try! If it ends up having compatibility issues with that theme, post whatever issues you’re having here and I’ll take a look and try to resolve it for you.

    I wish you had posted a support request rather than just leaving a low review!

    If you happen to check back here, the solution to that issue is to update your PHP to version 5.3 or higher. As stated in the readme; “Plugin will not work without 5.3 or higher”.

    You bring up a good point though, that we should check the PHP version and display an appropriate error message if it is not compatible.

    Looking at how your site displays our widget horizontally, it may be the case that when some of the values in the table is longer than normal (+0.37 instead of +1, for example) the width of that entry may increase to the point where there is no room to display the other entries, and they are ‘bumped’ off the screen.

    If the issue comes back, a screenshot would help a lot in diagnosing the problem and producing a fix.

    Thanks for helping us to make our widget more robust!

    Hi buyanzaya,

    If it’s possible, could you provide a link to the website in question? It is possible that your website is utilizing some caching (local copy) that is keeping the data, and therefore it might not update.

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Hello max_gs,

    Sorry for the delay in response, one member of our team was on vacation.

    In regards do your issue, I am assuming this was on the website teekay.com. When I examine the menu ‘Investors’, I see 4 different stock symbols displayed using our custom stock widget. Screenshot – https://screencloud.net/v/iFN9

    I have just a few questions:

    1) Does the screenshot I provided show the stock widgets the same way that you see them displayed?
    If not, I would appreciate either a screenshot of what you see, or enough information about your browser & computer to reproduce the issue myself.

    2) If my provided screenshot does not display the stock widgets in the way that you desire, please provide more information as to how you would like them to display and I will see what I can do.

    And if I was just too late to respond and you have already managed to solve the issue internally, please let me know so that I can close this thread.

    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Sorry about your bad experience, johndriverlesstransportation!

    We weren’t able to reproduce the issue on our end, and you didn’t stick around long enough to let us know if the fix we put in solved your issue. As far as I know, it did.

    Hello again,

    With luck, this issue should be fixed now. Unfortunately, I can’t conclusively verify this, since I never saw the message in the first place on my iOS devices.

    Please let us know if this is continuing to happen.

    Hello again Don,

    With luck, this issue should be fixed now. I suspect it had to do with our flash-detection check. Unfortunately, I can’t conclusively verify this, since I never saw the message in the first place on my IOS devices.

    I went ahead and fixed what I think the problem is. Please let us know if this is continuing to happen.

    While I don’t normally advocate this sort of thing, if you’re really interested in making it be variable width RIGHT NOW, you can always inject some extra CSS in the advanced styling field box. Something like this would work for 4 columns:

    width: 100%;}
    .stock_widget_row {width:100% !important;}
    .stock_widget_element {width: 25% !important;}
    {

    For 3 columns, change 25% to 33%.

    Hi Carami,

    The feature you mentioned is something we’ve been looking into. It’s already in our feature request list, but for right now it doesn’t look like it will work with our plugin. We only request data for the stocks a user selects. To generate some meta-lists like ‘top performers’ or ‘most active’ would require us to have all the stock data on our own database which is not feasible at this point in time.

    However, that being said, we definitely have plans to add in sorting by more of the headers. So, you could sort by current price, change of price, etc. In this scenario, you could enter in, say, 100 stocks into the stock list, but set the widget to display only the top 10 of those.

    As for your second request for variable width, I put in a request for that feature to be natively supported. It shouldn’t be too hard to put in, but no ETA at the moment.

    Thanks you for reporting this issue,

    It seems to be an issue with our code that detects if flash is installed; looks like it doesn’t work on all devices properly.

    We should have it fixed in a coming update.

    Initial review.

    If using a namespace declaration it must be the first statement of php code in the file.
    http://php.net/manual/en/language.namespaces.definition.php
    “A file containing a namespace must declare the namespace at the top of the file before any other code”

    Therefore you cannot simply wrap the entire php file in the
    <!– mfunc <?php echo W3TC_DYNAMIC_SECURITY; ?> –>
    tags.
    We do not yet know the best place to put those tags in or in how many files of our plugin they would need to be attached to.

    I found this documentation:
    http://justinsilver.com/technology/wordpress/w3-total-cache-fragment-caching-wordpress/
    Which says removal of <?php ?> tags from the codeblock to be fragment cached is required.

    If you come up with a working solution before we do, please let us know and we’ll incorporate it in a future release.
    Otherwise the feature request has been added to our queue.
