Can't get the new pages and custom post types to work

    No rush on this … I know you’re traveling.

    I’ve been using [mla-gallery] for a while now and I really LOVE it !!!! Thanks David for all your hard work on this plugin!

    With the new support for post types other than attachments, I’m trying to see if it can replace my use of the “W4 Post List” plugin for pages and custom post types. So I tried this as a quick and dirty test but couldn’t get it to work. I suspect it’s something really basic I’m doing wrong, but I just don’t see it. Nothing is being displayed.

    AAA[mla_gallery post_type=page post_status=publish post_mime_type=all link=file]BBB

    AAABBB gets displayed with nothing between them.

    I then added another [mla-gallery] to display attachments immediately following the above one and that one works fine. So mla itself works on the page.

    Can anyone see what I’m doing wrong?

    Thanks … Jeff

    Thanks for your kind words and for your question. Thanks as well for posting the source text of your shortcode; very helpful.

    By default, [mla_gallery] will only show the items “attached” to the current post/page, i.e., the post/page in which the shortcode appears. Since other post types such as post_type=page are not attached they are not selected for the gallery.

    You can try adding post_parent=all to your shortcode; that should get you the results you need. Let me know if that works for you, and thanks for your interest in the plugin.

    It has been two months since the last post in this topic. I assume you have tried my suggestion or found another solution to the custom post type application feature you described.

    I am marking this topic resolved, but please update it if you need further assistance with this application feature. Thanks for your interest in the plugin.
