“You need to sign-up into our API in order for it to work”

How in the world do you do this? I’m having the same problem. I signed up for a “new” account at timely apps and for the life of me I can’t figure out how to get my calendar feed working.

Thank you. It seems to work for Firefox and Chrome. IE appears to take a minute or two before it reloads the page.

Thanks a lot.

I want to call WP function nocache_headers() to make sure I reload the page every time.

I’d really suggest just a bit of usability testing with some “normal” users. For example: give a range of “typical” WP users a task to turn off the comments when starting a blog and after running a blog for a year.

It’s the rare engineer who can design effective UX. Testing is simple.

When I developed software for a major company, we had a psychiatrist on staff who did nothing but perform usability tests on our products. They would bring in typical customers and they would be asked to perform typical functions. As a developer it was a real eye opener. Functions I thought were perfect caused huge usability problems for users. It was baffling to me.

Sometimes you are just too close to see it.

I’d like to respectfully suggest that how comments are handled in WordPress is one of those usability issues that you should address.

Let me quote a comment in a support forum by the head of one of the leading WordPress theme developers Weaver):

“Please see xxx for discussion about the comments options. That whole issue is not theme related. It is a terrible interface choice by WordPress. It is #1 support question because of how difficult WordPress has made it to hide comments.”

This is a basic usability issue. Seasoned developers cannot see it, but believe me most new users of WordPress have a difficult time because this is so poorly designed.

If “Divas” can’t see it, then maybe it’s time to conduct a little usability study with the “typical” WordPress user.

Justin,

I’ve got a pretty simple site using your shortcode but when I click the directions, nothing appears to happen. I took the addresses to google maps to get directions and it seems to work fine.

I disabled every other plugin (including Akismet)and I still get nothing when I click “Get Directions”

Here is my shortcode:
[simple_directions title=”Holy Trinity Presbyterian Church” address=”19251 North Tamiami Trail, 33903″]

Here is the address I entered:
Ave Del Tura, North Fort Myers, FL

Website:
htpc-nfm.com

I’m using WordPress 3.5

Chris,

Any way to activate the Ken Burns Effect?

Thanks you for the information webjunk. I never would have deduced that from looking at the shortcode.

Is there any code which will display a page that has a single thumbnail for every album?

So I’m correct in my thinking. So how in the world do you display albums???

You would think this would show thumbnails for all albums, but you’d be wrong:

[album id=all template=compact]?

Instead this shows all the galleries. What is the album display code?

Should albums contain galleries or do galleries contain albums?

I put my images into galleries and then create an album and include a gallery in it to display the images

Thus I want to display album thumbnails.

So what is the proper hierarchy?

Bump

I’ve tried a myriad of the “run javascript” plugins (AYB Javascript in posts) but none seem to work. Maybe it’s because I’m using a form in the html? Or maybe the “onchange” event is being ignored?

Yes, If you take a look at the page you can see that some of the code gets “converted” when it is posted.
