Having the same problem here as well, hopefully this will get fixed soon.

That’s what worked for me. I fully deactivated and uninstalled 4.13 and copied over and installed 4.12. But I didn’t have a ton of data entered in 4.13 because I had just started using the plugin. So I’m not sure if it will fully preserve your entries or not. The plugin developer himself seems pretty active on the forums here, so hopefully we’ll get a response soon.

Also, the “Edit Category” page itself could use a “Add New” button (as opposed to having to click back to Categories to ‘Add New’, once you’ve saved your current one and it redirects you back, you can directly add new)

Confirmed that all features in 4.12 work on my blog while in 4.13 the above situation occurs.

I hadn’t used version 4.12, I decided to give it a shot since I like your plugin. I installed it and Event Edit/Add now works.

The Captcha does not seem to be working at this time.

I am not a coder by any means, but I looked through your code, and the code the developer of the Captcha script you used made and things definitely aren’t jiving.

From what I can tell, your code only blocks spammers using form-readers. Using the widget with anonymous posting enable, with captcha, and posts directly to Published seems to be allowing spammers to use URL injection into wordpress hooks or something. I haven’t quite figure it out, but the wigdet you made seems to open backdoors for post injection that the Captcha you chose simply isn’t blocking.

Also – when you input a bad code, it generates no error window, it just redirects back to the page.

I love the widget but I just wish it was more secure.

I ended up pulling my wp_terms and wp_term_taxonomy into a spreadsheet and editing it manually, a good amount of my category structure is repeatable (basically all child trees under the top-layer repeats for each top-layer). This was the only way I could get my drill-down to work were everything was nicely nestled where it should be…..

I would really like to know if there is a better way do this. I am basically building a very extensive game review website and there are roughly 110 different platforms and systems to cover, each platform should have its own drill-down that is basically the same, Genre 1, Sub-genre 1-1, Sub genre 1-1-1, sub genre 1-1-2, sub genre 1-1-3, sub genre 1-2, sub genre 1-2-1….. and so on and so forth (it comes out to like 90 threaded children and children of children, etc for each platform). I wanted to avoid situations where, say, a user was looking at an Action>Shooter game review under Xbox, and then clicked on ‘Action’ in the drill-down tree and suddenly ended up with simply all posts tagged as action, I wanted to make sure each ‘action’ genre was parented under a ‘platform’.

This method basically gives me something like 10,000 categories when all is said and done. I intend to use conditional tags to make sure each category, sub category, etc has some sort of header page…. but I expect that too will get unwieldy unless I can get the conditionally tags to work dynamically by what category is being displayed, which I hope I can do =D But that’s for the future.

Basically I want to know if anyone has any better suggestions for the clean, solid drill-down I want to achieve, or a better way to manage 10,000 categories other then via direct table injection. Maybe I am missing a referential tag or variable that can hold previous parents in the session and remember where the user is looking until a new parent is selected? I’m a little new to wordpress overall.

I also know that I will eventually need to make or find a widget for the category display in the Admin Panel>Posts Edit/New so that they can be expandable/collapsible (already have mods that make the tree always display hierarchical even after categories are selected, as well as forcefully select parent categories when a child is selected. So if anyone has any suggestions on that it would be great.
