Sure would have liked for you to submit a support ticket in instead of leaving a negative review.

Negative reviews have a long-lasting impact.

I work hard at resolving all issues as quickly as possible.

Looks like your site is fixed. Closing the ticket.

You can try this in the PHP tab:

echo do_shortcode('[ditty_news_ticker(1004]');

I suspect that this will be shown above or below your existing TopBar (depending if you use the Before or After PHP sections.)

You will have to play a bit with your CSS to position the RSS ticker exactly where you want it. You might have to echo out ‘<div id=myrss >’ and ‘</div’> to be able to reposition the RSS ticker. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to help you craft your CSS to relocate the ticker – it will be very tricky and time consuming for me (since I am am not a CSS expert.)

Closed – no response in over a month.

V5.34 has been published and fixes this problem. Thanks for helping me test this!

Can you try this coding change?

in wp-topbar.php

Look for this block of code in the function wptb_check_control_options:

if ($wptbOptions['include_categories'] == 0)
	$category_id_found = true;
else {
	$category_id_found = false;
	if ($wptbOptions['include_logic'] != 'page_only') {	 //skip this logic if we are only checking pages
		foreach ((get_the_category($thePostID)) as $category) {
			if (in_array($category->cat_ID, explode(', ', $wptbOptions['include_categories']) )) {
				$category_id_found = true;
				break;
			}
		}
	if ($wptbOptions['invert_categories'] == 'yes') $category_id_found = ! $category_id_found;
	}
}

Change it to:

if ($wptbOptions['include_categories'] == 0)
	$category_id_found = true;
else {
	$category_id_found = false;
	if ($wptbOptions['include_logic'] != 'page_only') {	 //skip this logic if we are only checking pages
		if ( is_single() ) {   							 // single page
			foreach ((get_the_category($thePostID)) as $category) {
				if (in_array($category->cat_ID, explode(', ', $wptbOptions['include_categories']) )) {
					$category_id_found = true;
					break;
				}
			}
		}
		else {											// archive page
			$category = get_category( get_query_var( 'cat' ) );
			if (in_array($category->cat_ID, explode(', ', $wptbOptions['include_categories']) ))
					$category_id_found = true;
		}
	if ($wptbOptions['invert_categories'] == 'yes') $category_id_found = ! $category_id_found;
	}
}

Let me know if this works for you and I can publish the fix.

Thanks,

Bob

Sorry for the lag, I was out of the country and had very limited internet access.

Yes, you can do this. Look at the PHP tab and see the sample code. You can use that to create the TopBar like you describe.
