NEVERMIND – Figured it out … had to start from /wordpress/myfolder … not just from /myfolder.

Sorry about the false alarm!

Muddling by using the Snippets plugin for now. Not sure if that’s the 100% answer, but it seems to be working for now.

When including files it is sometimes best to use the full path which is why site_url() . /my-includes/file.html was able to access the file in question.

I was using php to include my form:

<?php require(site_url() . '/my-includes/file.html')

Never even got to the part where I was going to try to process the results. Besides, the above syntax didn’t work because something was whining about the ‘https://’ being included in the path. My Server? Plugin? WordPress? I dunno.

I get what you are saying about ‘old plugins’ and I generally steer clear of them too. This one, however, was always just an easy fix for what I was trying to accomplish.

So I’m still not clear on what to do with the form. I’d rather keep it in a separate file rather than putting it on the page – because certain forms can appear in multiple places as a part of different forms. There are a LOT of forms on this site!

Am I restricted to just copying the HTML from one page to the other or can I somehow include an HTML file within the page?

Thanks again!

Nevermind – I got it. Contributors can SEE everyone’s posts but only ‘touch’ their own.

I may have been a little too focused on the wrong term in my first post. As I have read more, it appears that I might need to use a filter to call the plugin. Again, I’m still unclear on which filter I should be looking for, but it seems a filter might be more of what I’m looking for.

I noticed in Contact Form 7 that one could simply embed a ‘call’ like this:
[Contact Form 1]
in the post and the contact form would appear in place of that code. This would be absolutely ideal – but what do I need in my plugin to make that sort of thing work?

Thanks again for any help!

Still doesn’t do it for me. I upload through the Flash version – get a red “can’t move …” error. I try uploading in the Browser version – nothing happens.

Who thought this Media Library thing was a good idea? If a ‘sticky’ post the length of the one talking about how to “fix” uploading issues has to be posted, obviously this must be flawed enough that it should only be in Beta releases.

I’m thinking of creating server space just for uploads – putting everything on that server, then just linking to that resource in all posts and all pages from all websites using WP.

Sure hope there’s a REAL fix in the next release of WP.

I have the same issue – using FF and to the best of my knowledge I’m current on Flash.

Since the Flash Uploader seems to have so many issues, why don’t we have an option in Settings to just go straight to the Browser Uploader and bypass the Flash until it’s stabilized?

Thanks!

Thanks so much y’all! (I’m from Northeast Wisconsin – can you tell?)

I’m so accustomed to doing everything myself that it’s hard to adapt to things in the WordPress world – where we don’t each have to ‘reinvent the wheel’. Rather, we share – and that to me is very, very good because it ultimately means we save a LOT of time with things like this.

Your help is appreciated!

Thanks Cathy – good guidance! Actually, I changed wp_list_pages() to wp_list_categories() and it works just the way I want.

Much appreciated!!!!!!

Jeff

Yep those are errors alright. Haven’t had time to weed through them and see if one is the source of this issue or not.

Thanks for the reply!

Ajay,

I’m really feeling a little lame asking about this – but I’m having trouble downloading Open BROWSER Window. When I go to your site and try to find it, the page references Open BROWSER Window at the top, but then the links in the Install section and the Downloads section refer to Open PICTURE Window. Further, those links point to the same place as Open PICTURE Window (../downloads/16).

I tried using Open Picture Window earlier and that didn’t do what I needed, so I’m hoping you can direct me to the correct download or let me know what I’m missing. Thanks!
