Using Email Protector outside of WP

hi!
Did you try calling the wp_head() function early in your external php script (after you’ve loaded wp-load.php) usually inside the html HEAD tags?
Once loaded, you can use the safe_email( $email) function on any string inside your external php page. Ex:

Write me at <?php echo safe_email('[email protected]');?> and i'll get back to you A.S.A.P.

Thanks… OK… let me see if I get this.

The page I’m using this on is here: https://www.revisionenergy.com/maine-nh-solar-contractors-installers.php

This is a static php page that uses a WP Query to find posts through the WP loop that match a custom post-type called “Staff.”

In the content of the post-type staff, is a field ’email’ which is correctly ‘protected’ inside of WordPress as on: https://www.revisionenergy.com/blog/staff/geoff-sparrow/

However, on my PHP page it says ‘Email: geoff(Replace this parenthesis with the @ sign)revisionenergy.com’

I believe this is because the line above is what is actually in the WP database for that post…? Is there a way to run your plugin on top of the loop, after everything loads, to re-create the ‘protected’ emails with links?

Thanks… great plugin by the way!

no, the database stores the original, unmodified email address.

On rendering, the plugin filters and transforms the email into geoff(Replace this parenthesis with the @ sign)revisionenergy.com.

Then, and this is the part that fails, is the javascript turning the transformed email into a clicable email mailto: link.

So Look at your javascript console, check if the script is loaded and if there are any errors.

I just looked in the page source code and … boy. You are loading 2 versions of jquery, which is just asking for trouble. You also have a javascript error produced by a google ads script. Finally, i couldn’t find any link pointing to my plugin’s javascript file.

Alright, well thanks for putting me on the right track! At least I know where to work on fixing it now.
