Hi, I like this widget a lot, it looks great with the thumbnail image. But maybe I misunderstand how it is supposed to work? I set it to select a random post to feature. Is that featured post now permanent on a page? It seems to select different random posts to feature on different pages but on any given page, reloading it does not change the featured post like I was expecting it to. It continues showing the same featured post every time I load the page.
Thanks for any advice.
I’ve just installed the plugin placed it in a widget on my home page completed the settings and nothing happens nothing is displayed at all as in there is nothing at all there.
I have saved it. no idea waste of my time
]]>I ued the plugin from version 3.4 and it was working fine. After i upgraded the wordpress to 4.5 and the plugin to latest new 3.5.2 the images are not appearing on the widgets.

]]>hey there!
I like the plugin, had a few hicups that I was able to resolve in my custom configurations. However one thing I can’t solve (mostly because I’m having a hard time reading the code :p) is that when you have the thumbnail of the featured post, the plugin uses the site address instead of the wordpress address to pull the url for the thumbnail.
So for example, my site thegeekycoder.com (not promoting, it’s live, you can see the bug right now) has the site address set to the root / of my domain. However, for organization reasons I’ve placed the blog files in a blog/ subdirectory, and used the rewrite rules provided for wordpress to link them.
The problem happens when the plugin tries to reference example.com/uploads/someimage.jpg, which is wrong because the physical location of the file on the file system is actually example.com/blog/someimage.jpg.
I’d say that this is a pretty easy fix, and I tried to do it myself however I’ve had hell trying to find where you set the image’s url, so I’m posting here in hopes of a fix or some directions to fix it myself.
tyvm for the plugin, it’s done everything I’ve wanted it to do… Except this :).

I have upgraded my site to WP 4.4.1. I have the Virtue theme and the v3.4.2 of the AdvancedFeaturedPostWidget (AFPW).
I noticed that, if I enable the AFPW on my site after the upgrade, the whole site is broken. If I disable AFPW, then site is displayed again.
I have created a test site from scratch and installed Virtue theme and AFPW, the site is not broken but, the featured post is not displayed.
The plugin spec says WP 4.4.1 is not supported. So, it is expectable that it may not work. I am not complaining. Just asking for your experience, in case I am doing something wrong..
Thanks!
p.s. The author’s other plugin FeaturedPostWidget works.

Plugin ver 3.3.5
Just updated and the sidebar content was showing shortcodes, even though the checkbox to suppress the shortcodes was selected.
Re-saving the widget did nothing.
Added a new widget to make sure it wasn’t just the existing widgets that had gone wrong: same thing happened.
Weirdly, un-ticking the checkbox and saving suppressed the shortcodes.
So it seems the option is either backwards or the explanation label should say “tick to SHOW shortcode content”

It’d be great if the widget had an option to hide itself if the post chosen is either missing or draft.
That way I can have users without great skills just turn a post to draft to hide it for when it’s not needed, and then publish again when it should show.
Many thanks.

Check, where you want to show the widget. By default, it is showing on the homepage and the category pages:
Homepage
Frontpage (e.g. a static page as homepage)
“Page” pages
Category pages
Single post pages
Archive pages
Tag pages
Attachments
Custom Taxonomy pages (only available, if having a plugin)
Author pages
Search Results
“Not Found”Check all
Here you can finally style the widget. Simply type something like
border: 2px solid;
border-color: #cccccc;
padding: 10px;
to get just a gray outline and a padding of 10 px. If you leave that section empty, your theme will style the widget.Notice: Undefined variable: label in /home/michover/public_html/uat/chingfordelectrical/wp-content/plugins/advanced-featured-post-widget/class-lib/A5_FormFieldClass.php on line 28
