Really sorry for the late reply.

I see the issue. I will have it correcting it in the next update.

Thanks for pointing it out.

Thanks for all the valuable feedback. I have implemented most of your suggestions and have added documentation for you to have a look at.

The only issue I could not address was the error with the bulleted text. Will fix that issue in the next update.

Hi Philip,

Can you tell me which are the widgets that gave you problems? Also were there any error messages present?

The plugin at Github. Thanks for the help.

Hi Greg.

Thank you for chipping in. Still trying to wrap my head around why an error is popping up.

All I did was add some new options to my blog widget and make necessary changes to the widgets less file.

On updating the plugin the widget throws the following error

Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘Exception’ with message ‘parse error: failed at @btn-clr: ; line: 220’ in /home/content/38/8106138/html/wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/base/inc/lessc.inc.php:3460 Stack trace: #0 /home/content/38/8106138/html/wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/base/inc/lessc.inc.php(2273): lessc_parser->throwError() #1 /home/content/38/8106138/html/wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/base/inc/lessc.inc.php(1795): lessc_parser->parse(‘??.so-widget-in…’) #2 /home/content/38/8106138/html/wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/base/siteorigin-widget.class.php(629): lessc->compile(‘??.so-widget-in…’) #3 /home/content/38/8106138/html/wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/base/siteorigin-widget.class.php(502): SiteOrigin_Widget->get_instance_css(Array) #4 /home/content/38/8106138/html/wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/base/siteorigin-widget.class.php(193): SiteOrigin_Widget->save_css(Array) #5 /home/content/38/8106138/html/wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/so-widgets-bundle.php(574): SiteOrigin_ in /home/content/38/8106138/html/wp-content/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/base/inc/lessc.inc.php on line 3460

A quick way to get rid of the error is just save the widget again & update the post.

Would be great if you could shed some light on the problem.

Thanks.

I have added options for excerpt as a link, button and option to use the full post content.

I have made some changes to the background image. Just let me know if it is still giving problems.

Cheers

Hi.

Thanks for pointing out the error. I have fixed it in the update.

Hi.

I have made a rough tutorial to set up the portfolio post type. Setting up the Portfolio.

Just let me know if this helps solve the problem.

Cheers

Hi.

I have added all the options you would like. There are a few more changes I have to make to the plugin. Will definitely upload an update tomorrow.

Sorry for the wait.

Hi bremnerr,

I am planning to release an update over the coming weekend. I will include an option to display the Full Text instead of the excerpt.

In your second question. Does ‘body text’ mean excerpt?

Yes. The Portfolio Widget works only with portfolio.

You can use “Origin SiteBuilder” for your Portfolio Projects. Go to Settings -> Page Builder and make sure Projects is checked.

Also, I will be putting up docs for all the widgets over the weekend. Hopefully, that will make things more clear.

Just to make sure. You have activated SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle and used Jetpack’s Custom Content Types to build your Portfolio.

Hi Philip

It’s great to hear that you have found the plugin useful.

Adding pagination to the blog widget is a great idea. I will include the feature by the end of the month.
