Nevermind, figured out that it works once I went through them all and manually changed the “sort text” to lastname, firstname.

@alchymyth Thank you! I’ve been trying to figure this out for a while now, the post I made before was up for close to a month and got no responses. I really appreciate your help!

Will do

Thanks! Appreciate it and great simple plugin.

Sure thing. I’ll create a new one. Thanks.

One more question is there a way to display a certain amount of staff per page? Sort of like having a certain amount of posts displayed on one page with navigation at the bottom to go between pages? Or maybe a way to add a search box to filter by whatever is searched?

Thank you! I’ll be using this plugin for the school’s staff directory now. Thanks for your help and the quick response.

Tried messing around with it. Tried using the_post_thumbnail but the same thing happens. I deleted all my posts and added a few to see if that would fix it but it didn’t. When I only had 1 post, it took forever to refresh the page and it finally loaded but with hundreds if not thousands of the same image over and over again on the page.

Anyone know about a similar issue or have any suggestions on how to fix?

Update: It changes for the 2 most recent posts. So My 2 most recent right now are “Post 7” & “Post 6”. And then it causes “Post 5” or whatever the post before these 2 is to not show the date when the post was created.

Yes, it works then. It’s something with my theme I guess I need to figure it out.

I won’t be working on this until tomorrow. My shift is over. Thanks, @nextend_ramona and @laszloszalvak for all the help today. I appreciate it and I think I’ll be able to use this plugin once I figure out this final issue.

Alright, so I got the memory_limit changed to 2G. That did fix the issue where I couldn’t use the customization under appearance in WordPress, this must’ve been due to the memory limitation.

I’m still having an error with the news page. I’ve enabled DEBUG though I cannot find the error logs files. I checked both in the wp-contents folder and also in the root folder.

Yes, you would be correct. Thank you so much for your help once again. I’ll have to get in contact with them and I’ll keep you updated!

Hey @laszloszalvak

The server has 2GB of RAM, after restarting the server I no longer get this error. Though I still am having issues with the news page. As soon as I disable your plugin it works fine.

Here’s a screenshot of the memory, it hasn’t gone over 70% usage. https://prnt.sc/105v0bd

@laszloszalvak

I fixed a different error that was printed after enabling WP_DEBUG.

I still get this same error on my “news” page which is the posts page.

Here is a link to the page. https://www.mydcts.org/dcts/news/

@laszloszalvak
Thank you! Yes I know see these two errors.

Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 29360128) (tried to allocate 65536 bytes) in /home/dcts/public_html/dcts/wp-content/plugins/smart-slider-3/Nextend/SmartSlider3/Platform/WordPress/Integration/Gutenberg/Gutenberg.php on line 14

My memory usage is about 60%, is this a setting with the plugin or do I need more memory for the server?
