HI I am having this issue also of the menu wiping the original custom menu when I updated my custom menu and now it will not save any new additions, I deactivated all plugins and still not working. I have done no updates so unsure why this has broken. still running WP 3.4.2 (unsure to update as do not want to find things breaking)
Running a child theme on genesis.

If you can shed any light on this I would be pleased. Thanks

I am having this issue 2 but I would like to continue with the plugin.

Is there a hack/ fix to remove sticky posts from paged archives?

Thanks
you got my brain ticking and what I did was use the pull certain categories in the functions.php

function child_before_loop () {
global $query_string;

if( is_home() )
query_posts($query_string . “&cat=10”);
}

add_action(‘genesis_before_loop’, ‘child_before_loop’);

add_filter( ‘genesis_seo_title’, ‘child_header_title’, 10, 3 );

then use Genesis simple hooks, and put in some content before the geneisis-before-loop hook to create what I wanted. Not pulling the page I wanted but linking to it which is what I wanted. see here

<?php if(is_home( ) )
{
?><p>insert images and text and any links you want here</p> <?php
}
?>

Thanks for your help

Sorry an update on this, follow the `code changes below ??

Look for xml-news-metabox.php and replace entire file with the following code, I changed how script checks for posts that are checked in the settings and displays nothing if its not included.

then change the following code in xml-news-sitemap-class.php line 58 from:

$post_types = “‘post'”;

to

$post_types = “‘post’, ‘tribe_events'”;

with the name of your custom posts being in my case ‘tribe_events, the name has to be exactly what your custom posts are called.

Thanks

This code works on the Github page for me now. What you have to be sure of is to change the code on line 58

from

$post_types = “‘post'”;

to

$post_types = “‘post’, ‘tribe_events'”;

with the name of your custom posts being in my case ‘tribe_events, the name has to be exactly what your custom posts are called.

I hope this helps.

Hi Guys check out this link where there is a solution that partially works for me but works for others. https://github.com/jdevalk/Google-News-Sitemap/issues/20

I think it depends on how your custom posts are set up? Open to your solution on how to make this work 100%

Appreciating that tracking is tricky for this, what would you suggest as I have the same issue with a redirect on my blog where a user who arrives on a mobile is redirected and my analytics for the site that has the redirect on it is not tracking the code? Please advise what I can do?

Cheers

Legend this worked a treat for adding a border to images in advanced blogroll. Thank you

Now I am having to say I need to look at this.
There is a conflict with Sexy bookmarks for some reason which was spitting out code (so just deactivated), Also there is a new tab to make new events (I see it now) and as for my old events, just need to work out how to get these showing. Must be an import or moving files around. Not sure as yet.

Same. I have Genesis frame work with a Mocha child theme and on upgrading there is nolonger any events. Just standard blog pages? If I go to make a new event/ post the drop down to insert event details is not appearing either, it is as if the plugin is not activated or installed?
Love to hear the solution as I am sure this will be a fantastic plugin.

Hi Yes I have modified the template for the events calandar. Here are the two files as I have them. Sounds reasonalble. Let me know where you think I have gone wrong with my </div>

Looked into this further and if I deactivate The Events Calendar Plugin it all seems okay, but I do not understand as it was working 100% with this plugin activated, so not sure what has changed.
Any assistance welcomed

Thank you.
Worked a treat for me although I now have another issue which i do not think is related but might be.

my theme layout has suddenly broken by pulling the sidebars incorrectly.
sidebar content sidebar layout is okay as is full content is okay but when layout of sidebar- content or content-sidebar is called the sidebars are pulled when they are not meant to be.

My default layout is sidebar-content-sidebar

sidebar-content
The sidebar primary is called followed by the content followed by the sidebar-alt

content-sidebar
the content is called then the sidebar then the sidbar-alt under the comments feild.

Very odd

and here

I would appreciate your assistance and some pointers as I can not find the cause of this issue.

Recent actions include upgrades to wordpress 3.2.1 and genesis.
Instal of flash video player plugin (uninstalled to see if fixed problem but with no difference) and this change to The Events Calendar.

If I deactivate the events calendar the theme is all okay again, so may or may not be related to this change, although I have it working on another similar site? r3volution11 I would appreciate you looking as you have a sound knowledge of this plugin or anyone else who has a good idea to try.

Thanks

Copy of my single.php

[Code moderated as per the Forum Rules. Please use the pastebin]

Both work for gridview layout sidebar-content and event layout of sidbar-content-sidebar

This is for a child theme on Genesis and I also pull the comments field

Hope this helps.

Legend worked for me.
Thank you
