In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Admin Bar Button Breaks X ThemeHi, thanks for your feedback.
I’m sorry to hear that you are having problems with the plugin. Unfortunately as the theme you are using is paid for, I’m unable to test Admin Bar Button on it.
If you are able to provide a specific error message (found in the Console tab of Firebug or Chrome Developer) I’d be happy to help where I can.
Thanks,

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Latest Update Not WorkingThat’s great news, thanks for posting back to let me know ??

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Latest Update Not WorkingHopefully I have found the bug that is causing you grief.
I had accidentally misspelled
z-index
in one of the CSS files, meaning that on some themes with a fixed header, the header would float above the Admin Bar Button.I have committed a fix, and version 4.0.1 should be available to you now. If you could please update and let me know whether or not your problem has been fixed I would be most grateful.
Thanks,

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Latest Update Not WorkingHi again,
I have something else I’d like you to try if the above tips did not help you track down an incompatibility.
First, look at the source of the page and copy the Admin Bar Button settings from the header. I’d like to see if there is an error there, which would cause the button to fail. For your reference, they’ll look like this –
<script type="text/javascript"> /** * Admin Bar Button display options */ var djg_admin_bar_button = { button_position: 'top-left', button_activate: 'both', bar_auto_hide: true, bar_show_time: 5000, animate: true, animate_button_duration: 333, animate_bar_duration: 666, animate_direction: 'left' } </script>
After that, please visit the Admin Bar Button settings page and click the **Restore Defaults** button. I appreciate that you may have customised your settings slightly, but this will tell us if something in the last update broke the plugin due to your settings.
Thanks again,

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Latest Update Not WorkingHi steveraven,
I’m sorry to hear that you have encountered a problem with version 4.0 of Admin Bar Button.
To troubleshoot the issue, could I please ask that you try the following –
- First, deactivate other plugins one-by-one to check for an incompatibility. If deactivating a specific plugin fixes Admin Bar Button, please let me know which plugin it was so that I can look in to why they are incompatible.
- Switch to one of the default WordPress themes. As with the plugins, if this fixes Admin Bar Button, please let me know which theme you were using so that I can look in what is causing Admin Bar Button to fail.
If neither of the above tips works, please let me know which theme you are using, and any plugins that you have active so that I can carry out some further investigation.
Thanks,

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Uncaught TypeError: $.widget is not a functionHi lelandmarquess and accapala,
Thanks for your feedback, however at present I’m unable to replicate the problem.
From your description it seems that the script required for using the jQuery UI Widget Factory has not been included as required.
My initial thought is that another plugin that you are using, or possibly your theme, is enqueueing a script and giving it the handle
'jquery-ui-widget'
, meaning that the correct script cannot be enqueued. However, without more information I cannot be sure.Troubleshooting
First and foremost, I’m happy to say that I’ve literally just released version 4.0 of the plugin, which has reveived a lot of love and attention over the last few months. If you could please update to this version and try again, then post here with your results, I’d be grateful.
If that doesn’t do the trick, please deactivate all other plugins and try again, and if that fails, please switch to the default TwentySixteen theme (don’t worry, you won’t lose any settings and can just switch back).
If you do continue to encounter problems, could you please provide me with some additional details so that I can investigate further –
- WordPress version – tested up to version 4.5.
- Plugin version – hopefully the new version 4.0.
- Theme name – I don’t know of any that cause a conflict, but there are literally thousands, plus you may be using a custom theme.
- Other active plugins – There is always the possibility of incompatibilites, but I and other authors try very hard to minimise these.
Thanks,

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Show when not logged inHi longjonsparrow, thanks for your comment.
Unfortunately the plugin is designed to only show when the user is logged in. This is because the standard WordPress admin bar is only available to logged in users. So, essentially, it would be fairly pointless to display the button when the user is not logged in.
If you have a specific use case in mind then please let me know, I’m always happy to consider adding extra functionality if it will improve the plugin.
Thanks,

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Remove WordPress LogoGood afternoon,
I’m happy to tell you that version 3.2.2 of Admin Bar Button has now been released, and this version does allow for transparency when changing the text or background colour of the Admin Bar Button and the WordPress Admin Bar.
Thanks again for using the plugin, and if you have any more suggestions I’d love to hear them and will certainly consider them ??

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Remove WordPress LogoGood afternoon,
Please accept my apologies for my tardy reply.
As per your request, version 3.2.1 has now been released and will allow you to show/hide the WordPress logo in the WordPress Admin Bar as well as change the text and background colour of the Admin Bar Button and the WordPress Admin Bar (including hover).
Note however that currently transparency of colours is not available. This is because the WordPress
colour-picker
does not include this functionality out of the box, so a bespoke tool would be required. I will attempt to do this as soon as possible and will update you when (if!) I am successful.Thanks for using Admin Bar Button ??

In reply to: [Admin Bar Button] Exactly what I was looking forThank you for your review, I’m glad that the plugin has been useful for you ??
Hi andershopkins,
Thanks for your comment and I’m sorry for my delayed reply.
You are right that, unless you are logged in the plugin should not be adding the required scripts/styles.
I’ve made a slight adjustment which I am testing now, so pleaes look out for an update in the next day or two that will fix the problem.
Thanks,

In reply to: Network admin throwing error when I try to add/edit a userI certainly have, that made no difference though.
But… I believe I have literally just now found and fixed problem.
In the DB, the
wp_user_roles
option inwp_options
was empty. I copied the value from the same option inwp_2_options
, as I had already added another blog.Also, every user from the original blog (it was up and running before being changed to a network) had nothing listed against both the
wp_capabilities
andwp_user_level
options inwp_usermeta
. Because of this, theget_editable_roles()
function was failing and in turn causing the errors listed above.To fix this problem, for each user on the original blog, I copied the entries for the relevant user levels from the data stored under
wp_2_capabilities
andwp_2_user_level
Fingers crossed it’s all working fine now!
Thanks for your reply any way ??
