Hi Jacob

Thanks

Laurence

Yep, that is very neat – cool ??

Hi Jacob – I’d never noticed the Hide/show settings toggle at the top before.

Many thanks for a very quick response to my question

Laurence

Hi Jacob

I couldn’t resolve the WPPA specific issue we’ve investigated here in isolation, but thanks to a really helpful member of the support team from my domain hosting company he fixed the database corruption (that they had caused) and returned the whole website to a fully working state (which fixed the WPPA issue we’ve been trying to fix here).

Turns out that when the domain hosting company upgraded my service they did an incomplete restore of the background files over the top of others, which is why part of the website looked old and part new but uncorking.

All is now resolved with my website, and thank you again for your efforts to fix the WPPA aspects.

I have WordPress instructions on how to deal with a corrupt .htaccess file (delete it and let WordPress rebuild it) and it has had no effect.

Separately — I decided to upload a new photo into one of my Albums – the upload was reported to have worked, and a message at the bottom of the Album Admin page recorded it as such, however…. when I edited the album the place for the uploaded photo was there, but no visible photo

??

Laurence

Hi

I have gone into the album

I licked on the high res url, xxx.com/wp-content/uploads/wppa/22.jpg and I get the page saying “Oops! That page can’t be found.”

I have checked via cPanel and the photo is in wp-content/uploads/wppa/22.jpg

Some other information, while in the album the source file, display file and thumbnail file all state “Unavailable”

thanks

Laurence

Hi Jacob, thanks for answering.

In wordpress I can see all the albums in the Album Admin page and when I select an album that it says has photos, all the photo details are there, but no visible photo.

I’ve also looked wp-contents/uploads/wppa/ and all the jpg files are there.

The only restoration I have undertaken is an UpdraftPLUS restore from previous backup……

Laurence

if this helps, I’ve just checked the content of the wppa-source album and there is only 6 random albums rather than several hundred, and they are empty

the directory

wp-content/uploads/wppa/thumbs

has a thumbnail jpg for all the missing photos

Laurence

Thanks you Jacob,

It all makes sense again now

??

Laurence

Thank you Jacob, just the information I needed.

I have one further quick question, please, can I change this text for the newly created Album ?

“Default photo album for ”

Thanks,

Laurence

Ah, right, I’ll set those settings for future uploads

As these photos are being hard coded to web pages, and not changed that often, I can easily manage by downloading and reloading them up at the newer smaller size.

Thanks as always Jacob

Laurence

Thanks Jacob, that is exactly what I need to do – thanks for taking the time to show me which settings I need to set.

I have however hit a problem after I made the changes to the seeings – when I’ve gone into the Album and clicked ‘remake files’ it replied “could not remake files”

might I have setting wrong somewhere ?

Laurence

Hi Jacob,

I works really well – thank you so much.

I’ve just put it live on my website and posted a topic announcing the new feature to my Club Members.

Hope the donation gets you a drink or treat – sorry its not a lot but I fund my site personally, otherwise I’d give more.

All the best,

Laurence

Hi Jacob,

Thanks for the work around, but I will wait until it is fixed as want to make a big thing of the improved functionality in the newsletter.

Laurence

Separately Jacob, I read your notes about editing the BBPRESS Templates File. I came up with code for my Child Theme’sFunctions.php rather than to edit the BBPRESS Templates file as follows including a bit to make the default land at the Visual Editor version:

/** WPPA Changes **/
function bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
$args[‘tinymce’] = true;
$args[‘teeny’] = false;
return $args;
}
add_filter( ‘bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args’, ‘bbp_enable_visual_editor’ );

/** make Visual Editor the default **/
add_filter( ‘wp_default_editor’, create_function(”, ‘return “tinymce”;’) );

Question – is this still necessary or does the Option Tick Table IX-J9: Shortcode [photo nnn] on bbPress do this ?

Cheers,

Laurence
