 * Hello,
 * Me again. I’ve spotted and fixed a bug where it looks like the auto/manual option
   wasn’t saving on the settings page.
 * When the settings page saves it overwrites the tla_spp_options setting in the
   database that holds the version number. This means that the version number always
   shows as 0 after save, which then makes the version check code fire and update
   the auto/manual as auto again!
 * Adding the version number in as a hidden field fixes this (added in /includes/
   class-spp-admin.php on line 145):
 * `echo "<input type='hidden' name='tla_spp_options[version]' value='" . $options['
   version'] . "'>";`
 * Thanks again,
    James

 * Hello Ben,
 * Sorry, I need a bit more detail from you… What do you mean by preloader?
 * Do you already have the file opening with FancyBox, and just want a loading icon
   to show until the pdf is ready to go? or do you want the file to be ready the
   instant the link is clicked?
 * Thanks,
    James

 * Same as above. Stops access to admin – you have to delete the plugin to get back
   in.

 * Thanks Matt.
 * I think I can see what’s happening. The doc option in the filter matches for 
   both docx and doc files as they are styled and filtered the same. Because of 
   this docx in the shortcode isn’t recognised at all.
 * I should probably add a catch so that if someone add docx into the shortcode 
   manually the system treats it the same as doc files.
 * Does this make sense?

 * Hello Matt,
 * Pretty File List actually picks up the file type from the WordPress Mime type
   not the file extension, and I have added mime types for docx and xslx files in
   already. So this should have worked.
 * Can you take a look at one of the files that wasn’t working and tell me what 
   WordPress lists as the filetype (you can see this in the media library or gallery
   tab on the media uploader).
 * Thanks,
    James

 * Hello Leodev,
 * You can make a links open in a new window by adding `newwindow=”true”` to the
   shortcode.
 * E.g. [prettyfilelink src=”[http://www.example.com/thefile.pdf&#8221](http://www.example.com/thefile.pdf&#8221);
   type=”pdf” newwindow=”true”]Open the pdf[/prettyfilelink]

 * Hello Frederik,
 * Thanks for using the plugin, and I’m glad you like it.
 * Currently there is no sorting option in the free version of the plugin (I’m working
   on a more fully featured pro version), but I will try to filter this down into
   the free version as soon as the Pro version is complete.
 * Thanks again,

 * Hello Li-An,
 * That was a style I was using on my own site. I didn’t think anyone would really
   be interested in it. Obviously, I was wrong. I’ll add it back in to the plugin
   in the next update. For now you can download it here:

   get it working for you. Please give it a go and let me know if you still have

 * Hello Li-An,
 * You should see an extra option on the media uploader labelled “make pretty link”.
   There should also be 3 stylesheets to choose from in the dropdown list in the
   settings page. Are you not seeing these?
 * Thanks,

 * Hello Marko,
 * This isn’t something that my plugin is doing – it’s a WordPress thing.
 * When I look at the links on my sites I see:
    /wp-content/plugins/pretty-file-
   links//styles/prettylinks.css?ver=3.3.1
 * The current WP version number is appended – this shouldn’t change on each page
   load so the files should be cached ok. I did find this site that shows you how
   to remove the version for all js and css files if you want to:
 * [http://www.sharepointjohn.com/wordpress-remove-version-query-strings-from-javascript-js-and-css-stylesheet-files/](http://www.sharepointjohn.com/wordpress-remove-version-query-strings-from-javascript-js-and-css-stylesheet-files/)
 * If your problem is different to this let me know what your site url is and I’ll
   take a look.
 * Thanks,
    James
