Yep. Same here. Rolled back and it’s working again.

My site admins report the following error:

PHP Fatal error:? Uncaught Error: Cannot unset string offsets in /var/www/html/ph/<domain>/wp-content/plugins/live-composer-page-builder/includes/display-functions.php:1004

@hommealone – did you ever get this working? I’m also interested in the same outcome.

Of course! thanks.

Sure. I’d appreciate learning how to make that happen. Thanks.

I’m thinking the only way to do this would be adjust the code in feature-section.php. You could comment out or add in additional sections with appropriate tag names.

I would think we’d have to go into feature-section.php and adjust the code to reduce or increase the number of features.

Thank you for looking into it. It’s been that way since mid-July, but I got too busy to deal with it.

Thanks Evan.

It’s not an emergency. I can manually add the links to each post, as this is a constrained set of announcements. But if it’s something that looks not to difficult to implement, I suppose others could take advantage of horizontal nav from within the announcement itself.

BTW, if you could take a look at your tutorial on editing the single-content template, I think it may be terminating prematurely. At least, that’s the way it feels to me.

Thanks again – you’ve been amazingly responsive.

Okay.

I hacked my way through the single-timeline-express-content.php template to get the title at the top of the announcement. No doubt there’s a better way of doing it than this – I’m all ears – as I’m really just burrowing my way into trouble:

<?php
	/* Action hook to display content before the single announcement content */
	do_action( 'timeline-express-single-before-content' );
?>
/* added the title to the top of each post, with h1 formatting 8/11/2016 */

       <h1><?php the_title(); ?> </h1> 

/* back to the template's regularly scheduled function */
<?php
	the_content();

	/* Action hook to display content before the single announcement content */
	do_action( 'timeline-express-single-after-content' );
?>

But now I really would like to know how to show a link to the prior/next announcement – if you could.

Thanks!

Thanks for the quick response, Evan.

I’m using the single-timeline-express-content.php template you’ve provided, and with the exception of suppressing the announcement date, I’ve left it alone.

Today, in trying to get the title at the top of the post, I’ve inserted the_title() function just before the_content, and it indeed put an unformatted text version of the_title() at the top of the post.

I was just about to dig into reading how to format the_title() results inside the template php when you wrote back.

The post I’m playing around with is: https://www.phaseiidesign.com/announcement/wrote-the-book-on-presumptive-design/

Now – I’m not quite using TE in its originally intended form – as it turns out, it makes for an excellent Portfolio display system.

With the exception of some minor tweaking (like removing the announcement date), putting the title at the top of the post,
and, my last need: allowing visitors to jump to the next/prior entry, which if you have a hint or two, I’d appreciate it.

Thanks hugely!

In the next couple of weeks would be great. I’m fiddling around with the site and we’ll be starting to add more content in the next month, so whatever you come up with would be swell.

Thanks!

Sorry for the ambiguity. I’m usually pretty precise about this stuff.

Okay. I’ve got The Events Calendar plug-in – and it provides its own set of page templates…or, it permits me to use the theme’s template. Its settings also let me specify how to display the list of events (as complete, or as excerpts).

When I specify “excerpts” and use anything other than the “Default Events Template” (whether from TEC folks, or from Emphasize, the display (I’m not sure whether it is technically a post or a page) of the list of events comes out as “gobbledy gook:”

Find Events Events From Upcoming Events Events List Navigation ? Previous Events November 2015 Leo Guest Lectures at Clark College UX Course November 19 @ 9:00 am – 12:00 pm Leo will entertain and regale Clark College students in Robert Hughes’ UX class about Presumptive Design, among many other…

I’m not sure what that problem is all about, but it is one of the issues – another is the formatting for headers and such within the events themselves.

I’m considering abandoning TEC as a plug-in and trying something else. There are a ton of other issues with it and what I really need – so the above may be moot. (But the desire for a 2-sidebar template on a post is independent of TEC’s faiings…)

Thanks

Thanks for the amazingly quick response!

I was trying out several other themes to see if I could get my site to be more like I was imagining, but everyone of them was more trouble than it was worth. I’ve got my site working pretty much the way I need it – with a few weird things – the left/right sidebar being one of them and an uncooperative Events Calendar feature being another.

But after several days of window shopping and trying things out, I’ve decided the effort to make those other themes behave themselves in the way Emphasize is already behaving just isn’t worth it.

So…I’ll try and figure out how to live with the weirdnesses until I can make them go away.

Again – thank you for your responsiveness.

Any chance you’ll revisit this decision?
There are several cases I can think of that would take advantage of a left/right blog. Here’s one:
I want to put the list of related blog entries on the right hand side so visitors can easily find related posts.
For this specific post, however, I might want to provide a CTA on the left-hand side. (Yes, I could bury the CTA into the post, but in some cases it would be best to have it outside the content).

Okay. Thanks.

At least I’m not a complete idiot. I thought that may have been the case, but I couldn’t find anything in the documentation or in the forum to suggest it.

Appreciate the heads up.
