As @alexandraka already pointed out, the voting-button doesn’t work any longer with recent wp releases. This is due to a new jQuery-Version which doesnt support the .live function any longer. The fix is simple:
Replace the .live( with .on( in the file /wp-content/plugins/idea-factory/public/assets/js/idea-factory.js and it works again.
Don’t know how to quickly make a commit to the svn-repo of this plugin to fix it directly for other users, so if someone could change this directly in the repo would be great!

Hello,
Recently I had to face to a wordpress installation crash during a WP update.
After restoration (DB was not impacted), the new WP core (551) did a patch on the Database (seems to be ok).
The idea factory plugin seems to work (submitting idea is doing well), but no way to vote for it anymore.
I uninstall the plugin and resintall ; same effect (note ; the Idea database were not removed by the uninstall process)
any idea ?
Kind regards
Alexandra
Hello, I have a problem, the theme is placing the banners and footers over the modal box, and it cant be seen, you can check the image to see the details, I tried to solve it with CSS but I couldnt, please help me out.
Here is the image:
Here is the exact page with that problem:
]]>It’s a plugin really difficult to translate. I did it all but I can’t find this text:
your suggestion is awaiting moderation
Any idea where it’s? Thank you.
]]>Hello,
I cannot translate the plugin it properly in translate.www.remarpro.com. Please make your plugin and I collaborate to translate it in Spanish. That would make your plugin more universal.
WordPress has documentation to make it properly:

Thanks!
]]>LOAD MORE doesnt do anything. I have 20 ideas saved but it shows only 10.
A look at the console shows that ……/ideas/page/2 got a 404 not found
help?
]]>Hello – since this is not updated and working badly – others could try this plugin that looks quite similar… possibly based on this one?
]]>Hi,
I noticed the custom post type ‘Ideas’ do not appear within Yoast SEOs Post Types. This makes it impossible to set these custom post type to ‘Noindex’ or set other settings within Yoast SEO in the WP Dashboard.
Maybe this can be solved in a new update?
I managed to fix it myself by setting ‘public’ in line 46 in \includes\class.type.php to ‘true’. Then the custom post type pops up in Yoast (https://screencast.com/t/BuUL6YnYujG). Maybe this helps out other users in the meantime before the plugin gets an update.
]]>Just wondering if the author is still updating it or has any intention to? It looks really nicely put together but I would be concerned about future WP updates and whether this plugin would stay working?
]]>Hi! How can I change the text “Submit and vote for new features!”? Thanks!
]]>I hope you are available to assist with this plugin. I would consider paid service for custom development.
Meanwhile, what I need are
1, add custom fields like image, etc
2, allow voting with social media profile
thanks
I do not see anything on the settings page I see it flash then disappear.
]]>Public voting was working great until about a week ago, and now only logged in users can vote. No wordpress updates or new plugins were added in this time. Any ideas?
]]>Show page Idea (button) are not working. Link in Help page showing where to look is not working. Adding the code ‘[idea_factory hide_submit=”off” hide_votes=”off” hide_voting=”off”]’ not working neither.
Adding 1 to setting ‘Voting Threshold’ didn’t change anything.
]]>Hi, I’m a newbie who found your amazing Idea Factory plugin and have found it to be a great fit to a new website being developed. We’re stuck on one point – How can we connect/restrict each Ideas form (added via shortcode) to a Page/Post ID?
Is it possible to hack the original shortcode to include a PageID or PostID field such as this…
[idea_factory hide_submit="off" hide_votes="off" hide_voting="off" PageID="384"]
…which will capture this ID and display the Idea only on this PageID=384.
This will open up great possibilities for this plugin [hint: feature request!]…
# Allows each Post/Page to have own Ideas Form
# Avoids single page to crowd every idea submitted
# Helps with categorizing the Ideas
Please help…
]]>So the title says it all.
You have 200 voting credits to start with. Now you see a topic that covers your need and you need to upvote it to top. Use all your 200 credits and the topic now has 200 upvotes. But now you have used all your credits, you cant vote on any other topic.
This way users value their vote and before voting think twice about it.
]]>Hi,
Thanks for this amazing plugin.
– Can you please add a search option? Because i have more then 100 ideas and counting up..
– Can you please add a categories option? Because i have a broad network and categories would trim so many ideas down. Much easier!
Thank you
]]>The Idea Status is nog showing in the backend, so also not selectable.
]]>Installing the plugin by default initially gave me a “404 Oops! Page not found error.” That was corrected by switching the permalinks to “Day and name” under common settings.
The default page “ideas” (https://www.risingtidesgame.com/ideas/) showed up semi correctly (the CSS can be tweaked), however none of the votes I create show in the list. Only the votes that are generated by clicking the “Submit Idea” button actually populate the list.
Inserting the ideas widget into another page via short code produces this: https://www.risingtidesgame.com/testing/ …which is all kinds of broke.
The CSS can be customized and overwritten for the ideas page, however I would like to integrate it into another page without it visually breaking. Also, I can’t fix the “ideas” not showing up on the either page when created through the WordPress Admin section.
]]>Notice: Undefined variable: public_can_vote in /public_html/wp-content/plugins/idea-factory/public/includes/class.shortcodes.php on line 73
Getting the above error. Not sure how to resolve it.
]]>is there a option to add to let visitors votes also on ideas with a image
]]>I also use the plugin Easy Social Share Buttons to place social buttons at the top and bottom of the content of my posts:
However, at my Idea Factory page these social buttons are also placed at every idea at the top and bottom. It’s like a social overdose LOL ??
https://networklessons.com/member-ideas/
Any way to fix this in the plugin? Perhaps a good idea to exclude any social buttons with a checkbox in the plugin options?
Thanks for your help!
]]>Can anyone show me please where’s the link to this plugin? I have tried mywebsite.net/ideas and it’s not there! I even have tried after submitting the idea like this: mywebsite.net/ideas/new-idea but it’s not the link to all of the posted ideas.
Thanks
Ali
I have no trouble adding ideas in the admin panel, but none of the new ideas show up on the live site. Here is the URL: https://www.simsushare.com/ideas
I have about 15 ideas in the db, but only 2 or 3 show up on the live site. I have WP Super Cache but even clearing that has no effect. Any thoughts as to why my site is not using updated ideas data?
Thanks!

]]>Hi There
I use the Elegant Themes DIVI theme and whether i am using their page builder or not, or the default ideas page – the popup presented once the submit button is selected – is partially hidden by the site header area and toolbar.
Any ideas on how this might be resolved…
]]>Hi,
the plugin looks great. Is there a way, ideas in groups to collect and to map these individual pages? I would like to on multiple pages as a group represent ideas.
Tank you,
Bernd
Hello everybody,
This plugin has major drawbacks that makes this plugin more like a gimmick then a real tool for collecting feedback. Let’s have these drawbacks listed :
1) No feedback on the actual number of voters. You only get the sum of the votes. If 100 people vote +1 and 100 people vote -1 you get a 0 beside the idea. But you don’t know that actually 200 people expressed a vote. The plugin should make a difference between the general appreciation based on all votes and the acual number of voters. In my example there should be stated : [Appreciation = 0 | Voters = 200 ]
2) Voters can only vote +1 or -1. Much more interessting would be to let the voter chose between +2, +1, 0, -1, -2. This way it would be possible to express a more intelligent vote that matches more the opinion of every voter. For now its really to rudimentary.
3) Voters can’t leave remarcs. They can’t explain there vote. If you realy want feedback it’s just not enough that people can vote but allso important that people can explain their vote.
4) It’s not possible to debate on the proposal submitted.
5) No option to asks questions to the author of the idea.
6) New idea’s automatically are listed below the list. Not really a problem when you have just a few ideas but when you have a longer list (10 ideas or more) then it becomes a real problem because new ideas will get burried under all the previous idea’s and will not get any proper exposure. It would be better to put new idea’s automatically on top combined with an option for the visitor to change the ranking to most appreciated, most voted and back to most recent idea.
Final question: do you agree that this are major drawbacks? Or does anybody on this forum knows how to elude or resolve this drawbacks? Posts your comments below. Thanks!
]]>Hello everybody,
I want my voters to leave a comment why they’re voting yes or no. I want them to explain their vote. Only voting yes or no is way too rudimentary as a feedback. Anyone knows how to do that?
Have a nice day,
Hendrik
]]>Hello everybody,
I installed the plugin and created 2 new ideas through the dashboard (IDEAS > NEW IDEA). Under ALL IDEAS in the Dashboard I can see my 2 newly created ideas. And I can see them published. But the overview url says “No ideas found. Why not submit one?” =>
https://11julifeestvandedemocratie.net/wp/blog/ideas/
What I’m I doing wrong?
Hendrik
Ps :
The URL of my website : https://www.11julifeestvandedemocratie.net
The directory of my website : https://www.11julifeestvandedemocratie.net/wp
How can I changed the color of the background, text, and buttons to match my theme. I hope you can do this, if so whats the code and where do I place it? Thanks!!
