ok, I see. I have read that and researched all over trying different combos.

I was pulling in Media Files from the wordpress media directory where there are a bunch of pdfs. In there they have things like Captions, description etc. and I thought I could pull in those fields into the listing. So I was thinking that when I used customdata=”title”?or customdate=”description” that it would pull the info out of those fields from wordpress. But I gather that is not something this plugin can do.

Hi Thom, I can get the metadata into custom fields using another method, I just cant figure out how to get metadata that I populated into them to get picked up the customfield data using customdate=”Description” or title.

Maybe I don’t understand custom fields or maybe I am getting customfields from a plugin that is not compatible, I’m not sure. Is there a particular plugin i should use to get custom fields that I can then populate?

Here is a screen shot: https://aa50.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/5-5-2016-12-02-28-AM.png

Is there anyway to rename them in bulk???

ok found it on front end, but we have 3000 files. I have them in there using MMMW and Media library assistant. So I need to figure out how to get the pdf metadata into wordpress in bulk and then pull into File Away. Any ideas????

cant find “rename link”

oops, got this, it was a theme issue. Thank you!

after working on this a bit, I have figured out how to get a list, and how to show the items needed, but i can not get the “caption” out of the underlying code and display it.

ie

this file name:description(linked)

[mla_gallery columns=1 post_mime_type=application/pdf post_parent=all size=thumbmnail link=file mla_caption=”{+description+}{+credit+} {+title+}” ]

it shows
thumnail, linked with alt/caption

I want name of file linked with description or beside the first section.

Any way to do this using shortcode?

I have to take it a step at a time because it’s complicated. But the metadata does not auto populate when i load files unless I used the mmmw plugin and click on “reload metadata” and even then it would take hours.

Otherwise it only show the filename.

There is a “map mla” but it doesn’t seem to do anything when i click it, and I would have to click it for 3000 files. Is there a shortcut to get all files to auto load the data? Ideally I would put them by ftp into the directory and do this one time. Otherwise it would be a huge nightmare.

I will take a look at your other answers after I figure out that part i guess because in the absence of that populating I’m sort of screwed. ??

I rarely ever even post here but I have to say the “cheatin’ ” message is very unprofessional and a loser message. WTF. All I was doing was trying to set it up. I had not gotten into trying to edit the plugin, or the theme or any other thing that us designers/developers do. Why would I leave this plugin in, or buy it, when you think so little of your potential customers as to put in a dumb***ss message like this?!

Unprofessional and unacceptable, as if you hadn’t noticed from the post above me from 9 months ago, for some reason you still think that kind of attitude is an acceptable message and have continued to leave it there.

I had the issue of hover over and every event dissappears, the calendar just shows with the dates, I changed the setting “if this option is checked, this plugin’s CSS file will not be referenced.” unchecked, and it fixed the hover over issue. Workable solution. Hope this helps someone.

and where are the entries being stored, can we just go backend edit that???

could it be items with a question mark in them????

By the way, I noticed when I take off the minify settings that this is not happening as badly. I guess I will attempt to set them one by one maybe just minify certain things.

I do not have a blank screen, but I do have the intermittent white screen in the site between each page load. there are numerous threads online about this issue. I have narrowed it down to this plugin. I saw an earlier thread that was a year ago. Is there a current fix or method of installing that will cure this white screen issue? Also, if I had to install the wt3 before the other plugins, then how would I uninstall it. just deactivate it and do it that way??? or clear all caches.

Great plugin, thanks very much

I modified the header file where it says

<form id="searchform" action="" method="get">
<input id="s" type="text" name="s" value=""/>
<input id="searchsubmit" type="submit" value=""/>
</form>

Change the action=”” to action=”https://www.yourdomain.com”
