Ah, perfect. Stupid me. Thank you so much for coming back and answering my question.

Its okay, I figure it (good old stackoverflow)

I repeat the element in the brackets divided by ||

if ($("#fault").val() == "Waste Collections" || $("#fault").val() == "Recycling" || $("#fault").val() == "Parking" || $("#fault").val() == "Planning")

Is it possible to include multiple variables in the if statement within the jquery?
What I would like to do is allow someone to select any one of several items in a drop down list in order to display the hidden fields.

if ($("#fault").val() == "Waste Collections, Recycling, Parking, Planning") {

Is this possible and what am I doing wrong.
I’m new to jquery and hope its something simple. I appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks,
Allen

Thanks vtxzzy, you’re a star. The get_post_custom function worked perfectly for me. Surprised I hadn’t found that one before.

Hi there

I tried this and it worked first time, but then the search box disappeared, even after changing themes. Have you experienced this before, and if so do you know of a solution.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Hi Anne

I was unsure how I could best use that to redirect, but after some searching and playing around I came up with another solution. Since my website has a homepage specific template I inserted the following:

<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=/home_ie6" />
<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
window.top.location = '/home_ie6';
/* ]]> */
</script>
<![endif]-->

This worked perfect for me. Thank you very much for your help though.

Sorry, I found the error, my brain decided to engage this morning!

Hi Tim

Very sorry about the late reply, I was away on holiday. I have checked the latest version, tried it on my site and am very happy with the results. Many thanks for that and keep up the good work.

Hi there

Is it possible to reverse the post order so that older posts are displayed first?

I would prefer if it could be done at the template level as elsewhere on my site I want the pages to display in the correct order (newest first).

Hi D

I have updated the plugin and played around a bit, including the location of the chart image. It would appear to be a problem with my CSS of which I shall look at this week. Same goes for the table and when I changed the image location to the right the chart moved to the left but remains the same width. It would appear to be stretching to a set width with the first three columns being adjusted accordingly. I will have to sit down and sort out some CSS for this problem.

Any ideas more than welcome though.

Allen

Hi D

Regarding the table displaying to the right, I tried the recommended change but it did nothing for me and after fiddling with my CSS, plus altering the recommended PHP change a few times I still got nowhere.
I am just going to hide it for the moment as the chart element will do for now.

If you have any further recommendations I will be more than happy to try.

Many thanks

I have upgraded automatically through wordpress and the other plugin now works, so thats solved that. And I have removed the ‘arguement=’ as I now see that you have included an error message, nice touch.

One last problem, it wants to put my table of data to the right of the chart of which is rather odd and doesn’t resize right.

Is this a problem with my theme do you think?

Hi D

Sorry for the late reply, manic few days.

The short code is:

[easychart argument= type=”vertbar” height=”300″ width=”350″ title=”Barton Ward” groupnames=”Cons, Lib Dems, Lab, Greens, Other” groupcolors=”0070C0, FFFF00, FF0000, 00CC00, A3A3A3″ valuenames=”1999, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2007, 2008″ group1values=”2069, 1184, 2389, 820, 2398, 701″ group2values=”2002, 1177, 2825, 697, 3226, 993″ group3values=”4071, 824, 505, 100, 230, 0″ group4values=”0, 163, 320, 145, 0, 121″ group5values=”0, 0, 143, 70, 565, 102″]

I set this all up using an excel spreadsheet where I input all my settings and it just compiles it into the shortcode for me.

Its no incoveniance about the javascript issue as I may be replacing the featured gallery plugin with personalised messages from our local members. Its just that youve made a cool plugin that works so well that I’m keen to get it live.

Please do keep up the good work.

P.S. Add a donate button on your site. I don’t normally donate for plugins but your quick responses to my feedback and improvements to a great plugin deserve a pint at least!

Hi D

Fab updates, that polishes it off nicely. The background option, plus the table of data is great!

As I have a test site, now only used for plugin tests, I have set it up on there so you may see the results.

Test site with the ‘broken’ feature content at the top of the page:

And the live site with the ‘working’ feature content galler:

I hope that helps

Allen

Thanks for the quick response. I have been playing more with this plugin and my excel spreadsheet to make my charts. They look great but I did find that there appears to be a conflict with the Featured Content Plugin by iePlexus. I assume this is to do with Javascript and since I’m looking to replace that plugin with something else on my homepage I’m not fussed, I’ll just have to have no charts for a week or two.

The chart data table option sounds good, as I’m using this to display some polling results for different wards and that would save me uploading a PDF or something with the numbers.

The retention of the fadeout isn’t a biggy, the overall function of this plugin is more than enough. Compared to others this plugin finds a happy medium between being simple but limiting, and complex and unusable! I love it
