Thanks Angela. In going over the shortcode parameters I didn’t and still don’t see any option to display *specific* reviews, i.e. that aren’t arranged by product or product category. But I’ll submit via paid support forum and see if I can figure something out that way.

Never mind, I identified a bunch of CSS that had been removed and was apparently necessary.

This is pretty important, the widget really doesn’t belong on archive pages. I’m surprised more people haven’t asked and disappointed the dev hasn’t responded. : (

Edit: oh, you meant regular pages, not archive pages. Different question, sorry.

Oops on linking the old thread. Trying again:

I’m finding the same limitation with Widget-centric plugins like IntelliWidget, which I’ve realized is what I really need. The most promising option, Per Page Widget, hasn’t been updated in 2 years and not compatible up to 4.0.

Ditto. Bummed. Great plugin I really rely on, so hopin’ for a fix. Or, even better, to have media replacement functionality added to core WP…it’s always has seemed like a feature gap to me.

Disabling the plugin by renaming the folder within wp-content/plugins worked to give me the access I needed, but (obviously) with the plugin/security disabled.

Now with the plugin disabled I am unable to A) turn off the “hide backend” feature or B) retrieve the secret URL that I apparently need but didn’t notice when I activated that feature.

Guess that leaves me looking for a new security plugin.
“All-in-One,” here I come.

I think those files might be deleted as part of the “clean up process” you actually uninstall (not just deactivate) WP Super Cache, because I didn’t have to do that.

Never mind, I took it one step further and deleted WP SuperCache altogether. As part of that process I had to manually remove this from wp-config.php.

define('WP_CACHE', true); //Added by WP-Cache Manager
define( 'WPCACHEHOME', '/mnt/stor10-wc1-ord1/815556/www.solacesystems.com/web/content/wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache/' ); //Added by WP-Cache Manager

That let me delete WP SuperCache, after which the install of W3 TotalCache worked fine.

I’m trying to switch from WP Super Cache to W3 Total Cache and having this same problem. I deleted the old cache before disabling SuperCache, but that’s not helping.

I don’t understand the second solution recommended and always hesitate to monkey with code in and around plugins like that so will stick with WP SuperCache for this site, I guess.

You can upload a background image of any size, then put all of your “offer content” in a div that you can push around with “margin” css so it fits in the space. I just left “offer title” blank but you could probably push that around with css if you wanted too.

Hi thanks for checking it out for me and trying to help.

No, I’m not getting any errors in my browser. Everything seems to be working fine except that addition of line breaks. : (

From the screenshot in the listing in the plugin directory it looks like that still does more than I want in adding text and stuff, but maybe you can turn that stuff off or it’s blank if you don’t enter any text — I don’t know because I got a fatal error when I tried to install it.

Seems that it’s conflicting with something called “/shortcodes/slide.php” in Jetpack!!!

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare slideshow_shortcode() (previously declared in /home2/hollybar/public_html/willowglencharm/wp-content/plugins/jetpack/modules/shortcodes/slide.php:61) in /home2/hollybar/public_html/willowglencharm/wp-content/plugins/slideshow/slideshow.php on line 173

I wonder if that’s a hint of WordPress.com-style
[slideshow] functionality being added to Jetpack soon!!!

I’ve been building/running self-hosted WordPress sites for years, and never been able to find a slideshow plugin I really like. I’ve tried those recommended above among many others.

Then today I see a WordPress site with EXACTLY what I’ve always wanted…just show the pictures, in context of the content, with ability to click forward and backward. Turns out it’s a default/integrated feature of WordPress.com, requires no plugin and uses the perfect/natural shortcode, and there’s no way to replicate it in a self-hosted site.

I’m flabbergasted and sad.

Great tip! I renamed the plugins directory and it came up fine…now I have the much more manageable problem of figuring out which plugin is giving me trouble and fixing the problem or replacing it. : )
