Thanks a lot doobi – interesting!! ??

Thanks Pete, I didn’t mean those plugins specifically but it was helpful.

Would be cool to be able to add multiple addresses in the general settings field so that the value gets propogated to all plugins.

I think you will need to actually set/declare $testvar outside of the function in plugin2.php –
$testvar = 'test';

Eg my usage is like this: in functions.php I have:

// global value, incremented for multiple search form ids
$SEARCH_ID=1;

Then in searchform.php:

<?php global $SEARCH_ID; ?>
<form class="search" id="search-<?=$SEARCH_ID++?>">

Hello convert, if you’ve got vars in functions.php or a plugin that you want to access in a template, you need to add a global var declaration for that var to the template, and should work.

Figured it out myself, can’t see this in any WP docs?! *forum tumbleweed*

If the image editor is showing no image, check your WP upload path is correct.

Not true – the visual editor is replacing all <u> with <span style=”text-decoration:underline”>. It occurs when switching between HTML / visual editor, so presumably part of the editor js code.

This is undesirable, as it makes it impossible to style underlines (for example switching with a border-bottom).

Glad it’s not just me how is bemused by the WP post gallery system. The main problem seems to be that posts-images is a one-to-one relationship, not a many-to-many, due to the image’s entry in db having a post-parent field.

I thought 2.9 was going to be cool but all we got was an image cropper. Nearly all CMS that I know of treat images discrete to ‘posts’ (or whatever they are called in that system). Seems like WP has gotten too old to make such a change, would have a lot of implications.

Anyone heard of a plugin that changes images relationships to many-to-many?

I believe this is because templates are now wrapped in a function call to limit the scope of any vars defined – correct me if I’m wrong, can’t find any docs.

* bump * ?

Did I post this in the wrong forum? Really curious about this because I find it misleading?–?the_excerpt_rss() gets called, but not the_content_rss().

Yes this is a real problem, a glaring error infact? and still unfixed in 2.8.1?

Rather than editing wp-includes, it’s possible to fix like this in functions.php:

function rss_no_private($q)
{
if(is_feed())
{
$q = str_replace(“OR wp_posts.post_status = ‘private'”,”,$q);
}

return $q;
}

add_filter(“posts_where”, “rss_no_private”);

Thanks a lot for explaining that, and it largely makes sense.

In my experience, I am finding the relationship between posts and their attachments a little restrictive. To achieve layouts where images and text are kept separate, I have two options: use preg_match to grab all instances of <img> from the content, or not insert the images into the content, and loop through the post image attachments (the latter is preferable, as client can use drag+drop reordering etc).

Sometimes I need to reuse images, or move them between posts.
It would be really useful if the media library/attachments could have a one-to-many relationship with posts. I can’t see a downside for it working this way.

@glutenfreepost, @siempreconusted, your problem sounds slightly different to what vineetsharma1986 documented, my experience is exactly the same as his/hers, after 2.8 upgrade, image uploads fine but shows an empty gallery after saving (see screengrab).

I found this not to be related to any plugins. My current workaround was to save the post as a draft before trying to upload any images.

If someone else could confirm this, that would be great –?vineetsharma / da3M0n ?

Hi David,

Thanks for your input, I deactivated all plugins and still experienced the issue.

I believe there is a workaround?– saving a post as draft before attaching any images will fix the problem?

Can anyone else confirm that?

I reverted to 2.7.1.

The inability to control galleries in 2.8 makes it unusable for me, as I am not directly inserting images into my post textfields but pulling them out via get_attachments.

Exact same problem for me.

The steps in:

are too generic / posted 1 year ago.

Any fixes? This is a critical issue for me.
