Hi Scott,

Your API Key should consist of 32 alphanumeric characters, followed by “-us” and then then a number. eg a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3n4o5p6-us8

Would you be able to email me the API key you are trying to use? (mike at wearecontrast com)

Thanks,
Mike

Hey athrive,

Thanks for giving Outstanding Bar a try. Unfortunately the only way to display outstanding bar on your site is to add a MailChimp API key in first and select a list.

You can see what the Outstanding Bar will look like with its default settings at https://outstandingbar.com/

You have full control over what the different bits of text say, as well as the colour of the main bar, text and button. All text is displayed in the default font of your theme. You can also control when Outstanding Bar Displays (always, on scroll up or on 50%+ scroll)

I hope that helps, but if you have any other questions then let me know.

Mike

Hi Quentin,

Sorry to hear you’re having issues with Outstanding Bar.

I’m not entirely sure what is causing this, but i’m looking into it.

When I figure it out, I’ll release an update and let you know.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Catalin,

Glad to hear the translation is working ??

As for the messages not displaying at the correct times, the update included changes to the css and js files. If you are using a minifier or cache plugin, you will most likely need to refresh the cache to pull through the updated files.

Hopefully that will fix it for you, but let me know if not.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi vbarrio,

Are you still experiencing this issue?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Catalin,

Version 1.1.0 should hopefully fix this issue for you. In the settings menu you can now set the thank you message text.

I must admit that we didnt really consider how translation of the plugin would work ?? If you find anything else which doesn’t allow you to translate it properly, let me know and i’ll get it sorted.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi helloadorable,

Apologies for not getting back to you sooner ??

I’m quite tight on time as the moment, but i’ve had a quick look into implementing this and i think something we can add.

I will try to get this added in the next week or so.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Catalin,

Sorry this took so long, but i’ve now added the option to enable/disable the double opt-in.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Catalin,

Really sorry for not getting back to your original message.

We’ve been extremely busy since launching Outstanding Bar, but i’ve set aside tonight to get some fixes and feature requests done.

Thanks for your patients with all of this.

Mike

Hey vbarrio,

Sorry to hear your having problems with the plugin.

The error is referring to the line which declares the namespace, which I believe was require PHP 5.3+

Would you be able to confirm which version of PHP your server is running?

If you are running 5.3 or higher, could you let me know which theme and plugins you are using and I will see if I can replicate the issue.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Al,

Glad to hear its working for you now.

Thanks for letting me know what fixed it for you. I will continue to investigate to see if theres something we can do in the plugin to prevent this from happening.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Al,

Sorry for not getting back to you again sooner.

We’ve had a couple of reports regarding users not being immediately added to lists, however we’ve seen that the confirmation email does eventually turn up, and then the user is added to the list.

I will of course continue to investigate this, but in the mean time, could you confirm that you still haven’t received a confirmation email or been added to the list?

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Al,

Sorry to hear your having issues with the plugin.

If you could let me know which theme and plugins your using, i can investigate it further.

Cheers,
Mike

Hi Richard,

Sorry to hear your having problems with Outstanding Bar.

If you could let me know which theme you are using I can give it a test here to see what the issue is.

Cheers,
Mike

Thanks for getting back to me.

I think I might not have explained myself very well.

I am not using a non-standard version of jQuery, i’m just not using the version supplied with wordpress. All i’m doing is swapping out the built in version for v2.1.1

The issue i’m having is a result of loading jQuery in the footer, instead of in the header.

The code from the plugin was being loaded and called before jquery had loaded. I was able to mitigate this by adding a low priority to the plugin script code (as shown in my original post).

As its quite a simple fix, i thought i would ask if you were able to add it into the plugin. All the fix does is cause the plugin script to load later in the wp_footer action. Because of this, it shouldn’t have any negative side affects for anyone, as most people will have jQuery loading in the header anyway.

For those of us who have chosen to load jQuery i the footer, this fix will do the job.

If it’s not something your willing to put into the plugin, then thats not a problem and will find a different way to make it work on my site and close this thread.

Many Thanks again, the plugin is awesome ??
Mike
