No right container?

That’s not right. What browser and version are you running? I’ve tested in chrome, Firefox, and IE all running the most recent versions on Windows 8. I’ve also tested with the adblocker browser and Chrome running on Android. If you are running Windows hit ctrl+f5 to force the browser cache to refresh. Or clear your browser cache through the settings and reload the page. You might not have the new css file that comes with the new version of plugin organizer.

Does it appear that way on all the pages where you can disable plugins? Global, search, post type, post edit, page edit, and plugin filter?

Hey Jeff,

Thanks for the timely reply. I was in Chrome. I’m pretty sure I had cleared cache. It was that way on the Global settings page – all one column. I did see the two columns in one of the CPTs (Products) I had set.

I have to be honest, I messed around with it for quite a while today, and finally reverted back to 6.0.11. I had too much site work to do to try to figure it out.

I do like where you are going with the drag and drop, I do think you are working to improve the plugin – kudos. But for my two cents, the Available vs. Disabled columns would be much better served as Active vs. Disabled (as the combination of both of those equals the total Available – assuming all Inactive plugins are by default in the Disabled column), and dragging between the two is easy enough to figure out. Plus with your color coding, an “Inactive” plugin would be distinguishable in either of the ACTIVE / DISABLE columns.

Maybe I just didn’t give it enough time. I will try 7.0.1 again maybe this weekend and give it a more thorough test.

I’ve donated to your plugin before, and will be happy to do so again. It’s an important part of our stack with so many plugins.

Keep up the good work. Hopefully, you will continue to iterate, I’ll continue to work in it, and these challenges will fade.

Thanks again. I’ll update after more testing.

Ok so I just confirmed my suspicion. Your site is loading the old PO-admin.css file from the previous version. Are you using a caching plugin?

Interesting. While we don’t have a caching plugin on the site, we are on a WP Host that runs Varnish. I am planning on updating to 7.0.1 again this weekend, and I have the ability to flush cache at the server level (which I did not do last time). Any other guidance on what I should do while testing?

Thanks.

If clearing the server cache and browser cache doesn’t solve the problem try manually deleting the plugin-organizer directory and then ftp the plugin-organizer directory to your plugins directory to make sure the files are all replaced. It could be a permission issue and your server didn’t replace all of the files.

OK, updated to 7.1 (thanks for the quick iteration there), cleared server cache. CSS must have loaded, because it looks better, has multiple columns and I (kinda) got it working…

I don’t want to come across as ‘that guy’ who complains about a WP repo plugin. ?? Please know that I think your updates are progress in the right direction, keep up the good work. That said, here is some feedback.

1) It would be **Really Great** to be able to drag/drop more than one plugin at a time. We may be a unique application with *many* plugins (you wouldn’t believe me if I told you) ?? but moving one at a time is excruciatingly painful. Seriously. Maybe even a tickbox to move many at a time? Anything.

2) When we ‘Add All’ to the ‘Disabled Standard’ column, the plugins are now listed with Inactives on top, and by reverse alpha order. Couldn’t be more awkward to work with. ?? Any way to change that Disabled column display where (sitewide) Activateds are on top and the alpha is normal?

3) Even bigger problem, maybe it’s just in my application, is that I can not drag a plugin from the right ‘Disabled’ to the left ‘Available’. If I try, it simply highlights the plugin text, or even collapses the column. No bueno.

These are important considerations and I really hope you are able to address them.

Thanks.

Quick update. Interesting, as mentioned in (3) above, I was having some issues moving from right to left (this is in Post Type Plugins).

One time in testing, I moved several plugins left to right, THEN I tried to drag a single plugin right to left, *and it worked* – curious, I continued testing.

So I then opened a different Post Type, tried first to move a plugin right to left (I had disabled a couple Globally in testing), and the issue referenced in (3) above happened again, and it did not work.

I then moved a single plugin left to right (still in the same Post Type), and subsequently tried to drag a plugin right to left, and it worked again.

So, in my testing, it seems as though I can’t drag a plugin right to left unless I have already moved one of them from left to right. Can you replicate? Or am I simply doing it wrong? ??

The issues in (1) and (2) above still apply.

Thanks.

I have the same problem. See this screenshot:

What do I do? Thanks

Hey Jeff,

Nice work on 7.2. Thank you for addressing the issues I submitted. Things work great. The simple dot for active/disabled is much better than my original thought of another column.

We may be an outlier with respect to how we use the plugin, but we have over 100 active plugins on the site, (and I won’t even begin to tell you how many more inactive as we test) ?? – so the ability to move more than one at a time in the drag/drop process would be a really user-friendly concept for those of us with lots of plugins.

Thanks for your updates and for considering this option.
