Drop Downs buggy and more – Great Plugin in need of an update

  • This is a great plugin and I’d love to see it get an update some day. I’ve used it in the past and started running into problems with in during the fall of 2012.

    Currently with wordpress 3.5.1

    The hover over drop down selections inside the widget do not work. You have to tab to the post/page/etc item then toggle through with an arrow.

    Selecting a page if you actually choose the page option is even more difficult and the process is not one that I can put into words.

    The [read more…] section does not allow for customized text to be entered.

    There are fields that do not show up any more and the widget seems to show broken divs a bit in the widget admin area.

    For the parts that you can select and adjust, it still seems to work much of the time on the exterior of the website, but working with this in the admin Appearance>Widgets area of WordPress is barely functional any longer.

  • I’ve been having this problem too; in Chrome and Firefox for PC…Love this plugin! Nick, any ETA on an update? ??

    With respect to the [read more] issue, this may be due to the theme you are using. For example the StudioPress Balance theme hard-codes this in functions.php on line 58

    Edit:

    With a theme customisation plugin you could remove these filters in the Balance theme with something like:

    add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'my_adjust_theme_functions_stuff' );
function my_adjust_theme_functions_stuff()
{
remove_filter( 'get_the_content_more_link', 'balance_read_more_link' );
remove_filter( 'the_content_more_link', 'balance_read_more_link' );
}

    Yes, I know; I build my sites on Genesis and it is a known problem.
