In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Text Widget Error With UpdateOK, give 0.5.2 a try. Ends up, you can’t name a profile field “Text Box” since that’s a type of field. I’ve renamed them and it should work as expected.

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Text Widget Error With UpdateGot it. There’s a check at the widget’s output that was missing the call to the main part of the plugin. I’ve double checked that in each widget and fixed it. I’ll publish asap.

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Please Help with Music PlayerHey Angella,
Just wanted to let you know, I’m working on an update right now. It may still take a few days to get all the bugs sorted out, but I didn’t want you to think I hadn’t seen your message. 🙂
By the way, I know I’ve already solved the error message about not finding the page.

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] This user has not activated their music player.Hey John,
I’m not sure why you’d be seeing that error, but I’m working on an update that should be out within the week that should address a lot of the issues people have had with the last update. Keep and eye for the update and let me know if you’re still having issues after that.

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Plugin options disappearedhey Hannah,
The first thing I’d look at is the plugin settings page. The widgets you want to use need to be checked there. Its possible they were unchecked, which is why they aren’t visible.
If that’s not it, I would try the old “deactivate all your plugins and look for conflicts” trick. I doubt there will be any, but its worth a shot. 🙂

In reply to: [ArtistDataPress] ArtistDataPress stopped working with 3.7I don’t know why the indirect feed URL wouldn’t work. Unfortunately, there a thousand variables as to why this kind of thing wouldn’t work, I’ve tried to eliminate as many issues as possible by using WP’s functions rather than making up something of my own.
The only way I would know to get the all shows in reverse chrono order would be to have two separate shortcodes on the page, one for the upcoming shows, one for the past shows, and try to format them so they look like one thing.
I believe the feed for all shows is in chrono order, ADP just takes the feed and spits it out on the page, I don’t really reorder anything, it would take too much time every time the page loaded.

In reply to: [ArtistDataPress] ArtistDataPress stopped working with 3.7Hey Dan and blues,
I haven’t noticed a difference on my sites between those two links, but we’re not very active right now, so I don’t have much to work with. The direct links were a request of mine to ArtistData because when they were purchased by Sonicbids, the links to everything changed and were just being forwarded. That caused issues for some people based on their web server’s configuration and how it fetched the feed from AD. I would think that both links would work the same, but I would also expect the direct link to work better, so I’m surprised it doesn’t.
As soon as I get the chance, I’ll take a look and play with the feeds. You may need to contact AD directly and let them know about the issue.

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Music Widget wont change width size?Hey Joey,
What value are you putting in the width field in the widget options? It appears your profile sidebar is 370px wide, but the music widget is doing 360px wide.

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Not showing anywhereDid you also check any of the widgets on the plugin options page? You can just select the widgets you want to use, which then creates the profile fields and make the widget available in the Widgets management.
Hey coremedia,
Ah, no you are reading it incorrectly. The widgets themselves are visible to the public. The profile fields where the URL for the service player/page/profile are entered are not visible. In case that’s not clear, here’s what I mean:
Your site hosts a network of musicians. Each musicians has a profile page. When they (or you) edit their profile page, they would see a field for music player URL. They enter their SoundCloud player’s URL (or one of the other services). The music player widget on that musician’s profile page is then populated with their SoundCloud player and it is visible to the public. What the public does not see if the field where the musician enters the URL.
As for the Social Media links, I’m not sure what if you understand the purpose of this plugin. It doesn’t display links to the social media pages, it displays players, galleries, etc, from the various services. The example above would also apply if the musician wanted to display a photo gallery from their Flickr account, or an RSS feed from their site, or a video (or playlist) from their YouTube channel. The widgets don’t display links, it displays the players, etc themselves.
Make more sense?
I’ve debated adding a links widget as well, but haven’t had the time to actually add it. I may do that in the future.

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Can't Log Into my Dashboard After InstallationI would check with your web host, they should have instructions. Its generally the same process for every server, but you’d need specific info that they would have to provide you.
How did you upload WordPress to your site?

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Can't Log Into my Dashboard After InstallationHey kffksquiggy,
BP Profile Widgets requires BuddyPress to be installed and activated in order to work. That error message means you don’t have BuddyPress installed. Log into your site using an FTP app (like Filezilla) and delete the BP Profile Widgets folder. It should be in this folder:
wp-content/plugins

In reply to: [BP Profile Video Widget] [Plugin: BP Profile Video Widget] Multiple video'sHey Martin,
I haven’t made much headway on getting multiple instances to work and I’m not sure when I’ll have time to get it to work. I work at a university and the beginning of the semester is always a crazy time for me. The complexity in doing a BuddyPress widget with multiple instances is the plugin would need a unique profile fields for each video and a way to access each of those unique fields, but done in a way that doesn’t require someone to manually create each field. I tried one method and it just didn’t work and I had other bugs to fix.
You’re welcome to make modifications yourself and let us know what works and what doesn’t. 🙂

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] RequestNot with this plugin. These media players only work on sidebars.
If you dig through the default BuddyPress theme, you’ll find where it displays the info for the profile header (like the name, status, gravatar, etc) and you could add another field’s data to be displayed there. I’ve done that before and its pretty simple. I don’t think it would display a player, you’d need to add that separately and you’re welcome to use any code from plugin to make that happen.
I doubt anyone has put together a plugin for doing this, but it never hurts to search. 🙂

In reply to: [BP Profile Widgets] Can't Log Into my Dashboard After InstallationHey Gerald,
Since I haven’t heard from you in a month, I’m going to guess the issue was resolved when you installed BuddyPress and everything’s good. Let me know if its not.
