In reply to: [Get Posts] New Release w Featured Image and Custom Text FieldsI just installed the plugin and can’t get the Excerpt to work either, Featured Image is at least ok, though the code supplied didn’t work – I removed and rearranged some fields which fixed it for some reason: [get_posts fields=”post_featured_image, post_title, post_date, post_excerpt” fields_make_link=”true, true, false, false”]
But as I say, no excerpt! Disappointing as it’s nearly there…
Edit: have made some progress here (cache seemed quite persistent, plus I followed WP’s menu instructions too slavishly…) so in case you come across this again please feel free to ignore – for the time being ! 😉
Thanks for the info so far…I removed WP SC and got a message from WordPress saying that indeed it was still active and I had to remove code from .htaccess, which I did. I’m not convinced that it’s gone though (see below)… Just turned off Cloudflare as well and flushed the cache.
I made the menu changes as per the codex link (thanks for that). Wasn’t sure what menu to enable to work on mobile only so I enabled the extra one (nothing happened). Then enabled the top one and of course got the entire 30-category menu above my home page header. Disabled both of them, and… it’s still there. I assume that this was cached and now won’t go away. Any hints at all appreciated if you get the chance (realise this is well outside your ‘remit’…)
Thanks for persevering with this Jeremy. Had already flushed the cache but to no avail. Have disabled the plugin for now. Maybe I should also ditch Cloudflare?
The theme doesn’t support menus unfortunately (which was why hoped switching might do the trick) – have added one via a Custom Widget as suggested but that doesn’t seem to have made any difference.
ach, also…
the drop-down menu shown is actually a list of all the available pages. Found a suggestion that I should temporarily switch to 2012 and activate the new menu, but to no avail…I’m not sure if this will show up as it’s marked as resolved, but here goes for now.. I think Jetpack is working now, pretty much, so thanks for that. Apart from…
when I browse to http://www.jockrock.org the regular (unresponsive) web main page is the one that shows up. If I click on a category then the Jetpack-powered page shows the 5 most recent posts or whatever, it’s just the front / landing page not working.
I have set up a new landing page and blog page in Settings but can’t find a way to ‘force’ the browser to show the Jetpack Mobile version. Is there something I’m doing wrong? I was hoping Jetpack’s mobile version would get round any need to redesign but now I’m not sure….
Jeremy, appreciate the reply – er, I need to check on Cloudflare as I think my host may have turned it on for all accounts. But WP Super Cache… it was installed before but I disabled it, it is showing as inactive. However, if you can see it then it must somehow be active… I’ll either delete it, or try the settings hint. Thanks!
“over a day old”? Try 2 months! If you’re on the paid version I could understand, but it’s free software… I’ve also never got it to work – posted in the support forum more than once but never had a response. Obviously I could pay for it and then that *should* guarantee me that it gets sorted, but can’t be sure it’d not be a waste of money.
argh, I thought this was all sorted even though the web version didn’t work too well – but then I discovered the web version was showing mobile pages! Had checked the jQuery box and done all the cache setting stuff. Also, the toggle buttons don’t show up, so I can’t force it to test it. Infuriating as everyone else seems to be getting along just fine, and it seems to be the best (only?) solution.
