Tks Rico. The site is https://www.replapointe.com/in-the-news/

Some users began using elementor blocks to add news links. That is an inferior way of doing it as your plugin is better.

Hello Christian,

Yes indeed. Both live and sandbox.

The place_order element was there in the code, but not displaying. That was due to woocommerce embedding the entire content of my privacy policy as a hidden element. There were unmatched divs and lots of junk from the PP generator. This caused browser display problems affecting the rendering of the form (place order and check box). Cleaned up the privacy policy content and all works normally.

Best,

Quenton

AHA! Tks Christian. You gave the needed clue.

I looked at the source code for my checkout page and located the place-order element. It was there, but hidden. Same goes for the required terms and conditions check box. I also noticed the entire privacy policy appearing in the code as a hidden element. It seems woocommerce embeds it as a hidden element in the code. Why it does this I just don’t know.

When creating the privacy policy page, I used an online privacy policy generator and pasted it in. What came in with the text was an explosion of styles, divs and other gobbledygook.. plenty of unmatched divs, hidden fields, unclosed links, etc. As soon as I edited my privacy policy to not have the junk, all works properly.

Sometimes seemingly unrelated things are indeed related and cause problems.

Thank you Christian! The checkout page code seems to be coming from either woocommerce or the plugin. In wordpress, my checkout page just has

<!-- wp:shortcode -->[woocommerce_checkout]<!-- /wp:shortcode -->

Would adding the #place-order element be a matter of editing the code in one of those plugins?

Your help is appreciated.

Hello Christian,

I do not have a staging site. It made more sense to just develop live and then drop in the bulk of products once all is operating correctly. I put two in there for starters.

I just switched back to sandbox mode. The problem appears in the sandbox just as it does in production.

Tks for your help.

Hello Kharis,

Tks for your reply. I tried all of those things and no errors were detected. That led me to try other avenues and I discovered that it was due to mod security set up by my host. I got white listed and problem solved.

The odd thing is that the problem appeared in an unconsistent way. Sometimes all would work fine and then suddenly not.

Hello Rico,

I tried removing the pagination variables, but not joy. Here is shortcode in use…

[wp_links_page display=”grid” cols=”3″ orderby=”date” img_size=”large” title=”display” title_style=”font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px; text-align: left” desc=”content”]

I am using the pro version.

Hello Rico,

I realize I did not express the problem as well as possible.

I was trying for a 3 column layout. Here are the variables… display=”grid” cols=”3″. Instead, I get as many columns as there are links in an ever expanding row. Items do not start new rows at 3, 6, etc.

Your help will be appreciated.
