Per the screenshots, I looked for a widget titled “Shortcode” but it’s actually “Widgets for Shortcodes”. Maybe updated screenshots would alleviate some confusion.

This plugin should make making magazine layouts with mixed text and widgets a breeze. Thank you.

Looks like this plugin has been abandoned by the developer. Too bad.

The WePay SDK this plugin uses is rather old and needs updating, but that probably won’t resolve the Exception issue. I can’t get this functioning on my localhost development server because the SDK requires an SSL certificate.

The generated code for the PP form apparently includes hard-coded line breaks (br) after each element, as well as inline font styling. These should not be generated at all. Line breaks, if desired, can and should be done via CSS. Inline styles should never be used – omitting them allows the widget to follow the existing template style rules.

admin screens are displaying now. thanks

It’s not a permissions problem. The wptouch-data directory was created without any problem. I even removed the 1.9x version and reinstalled the 3.1.3 plugin. The directory was recreated as it should but the admin screens are still blank. If I use Firebug to change all the display:none rules to display:block I can get to the admin settings but this is a bad way to go about it, and I certainly couldn’t ask a client to do that.

No, WPT 3.1.3 did not fix anything for me.

Win7 WAMP localhost and WP 3.8, upgraded WPT from 1.9.8.9 to 3.1.1, now admin screens are all blank.

e.g. on the What’s New page I see a [Notifications] button (that does nothing when clicked), the page heading, followed by a line that only says “Loading image”. The rest of the page is blank.

I deactivated the plugin and reinstalled but no difference. Will the next upgrade address this issue, too?

You should make this feature available in the core product, or at least in the pro version. Either switch to a lightbox script that has responsive capability built in, or give the user the option to use a different lightbox script.

I don’t use any plugin that can’t handle responsive design off the shelf or with minimal CSS changes. I’m sure there are a lot of other people who do likewise. It would be in your own best interest to move towards responsive design.

esmi, I did not say it was an accessibility issue. It’s a usability issue, which is not the same thing.

Very disappointing, considering all the work WP has done on responsive design for their default templates. This was an ill-conceived change that was totally unnecessary. And now we’re apparently stuck with it for the foreseeable future. That sucks.

esmi, I have been doing web programming for 15 years and learned about web usability and accessibility in the early days. Your attitude is condescending and reminiscent of what I will always think of as “clueless deezyners”: the bad old days with the expectation that I must change my system settings to accommodate your web site.

No. That is just plain wrong, and always was.

I never had to do it before on www.remarpro.com. Explain the reason why I must do it now, especially since I can fathom no purpose for this new scrolling div. Whoever added it could not have thought it through.

And you’re just plain wrong about the availability of the scrollbars. Lookee see:

I have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page to see the extra scrollbar. How is that NOT poor usability?

The overflow property creates a scrolling div, which is GHASTLY for usability and is completely unnecessary on the www.remarpro.com site. This didn’t start until just a few days ago and I cannot believe it was done intentionally. More likely the repercussions weren’t really thought through.

My usual browser window size is 800px wide and I run multiple windows side by side all day long. This is what I get after loading a plugin page and using the right arrow key on my keyboard to scroll right:
https://www.c-net.us/misc/test/wp/wp-content-scroll.png

If I scroll down the page I eventually see the extra horizontal scrollbar on the content area, which I have to scroll separately to see what’s been lopped off on the right. Very poor user experience there.

klihelp, I think you misunderstood what I was asking for. Unless I’m mistaken, I have to copy the default template and code it all up myself if I want it formatted like LG. When I copied it and tried to move the gallery description field it broke something else. The plugin author apparently abandoned LG users who might migrate to this plugin, providing a means to convert the gallery folders of images, but not provide any equivalent templates to keep the transition as painless as possible. ??

This is not good, and very frustrating for this long-time LG user.

BTW, the lack of response from the plugin author for over 3 months is very discouraging, too. Time to find a new gallery plugin, I think. That’s too bad, but it’s the risk you take using free open-source software.

itissue, I would try to make it more dynamic so you don’t have to hard-code names and IDs.

The response from the plugin author is disappointing. How about adding it to the next release? Or at least say you’ll consider doing that?

I think you can just remove the lazyest-wizard.php file. Reading the comments at the beginning of the file indicates it’s to support the Windows XP Publishing Wizard, which nobody should be using.

The flash uploader seems broken. I can upload with the browser uploader but thumbs still aren’t automatically created. I can, however, go into Settings and use the Fill Cache button to create missing thumbs. This is a very short-term solution but will do until I can figure out what to do long-term with my galleries.
