Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: the_excerpt returns same value for all posts on blog pageThank you for your reply. I had not excluded the child theme, only what I thought it could be within the child theme. After moving over to the parent theme, the behaviour went away.
I have something in my child theme functions file that was working with the content, but using a global variable. When I changed it to a local variable, the behaviour went away.
Thanks again for the response — it helped me to more quickly find the resolution.

In reply to: [Modula Image Gallery] Misleading description – video gallery not freeThere was a 3-part reason for the 1-star review. I initially found your plugin through your site, not www.remarpro.com. I was interested enough that I was ready to purchase pending a demo, but then couldn’t find a demo linked anywhere to be sure it looked like what I wanted. I was about to call it quits on your product and keep looking, but then decided to Google ‘Modula demo’, which brought me here. Then, I saw that you could actually test/use the video gallery part as per the description, which is what I am looking for, then installed it and found out that you couldn’t without purchase. Then I saw that another user brought it up over 1 month ago that video gallery was listed as free but really wasn’t yet the main page still showed it as a free function.
I appreciate you fixing the listed issue.
That makes sense.
Thank you for the quick response and years of support on this great plugin.

In reply to: [Twenty Seventeen] Remove author link with child themeThe function is in twentyseventeen/inc/template-tags.php, starting on line 12.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Twenty Seventeen] Remove author link with child themeOh, can I just pop the modified version in the functions.php in the child theme, then? The function is twentyseventeen_posted_on() called from template-parts/post/content.php line 26 in latest versions.
Full text is this:
function twentyseventeen_posted_on() { // Get the author name; wrap it in a link. $byline = sprintf( /* translators: %s: post author */ __( 'by %s', 'twentyseventeen' ), '<span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="' . esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ) ) ) . '">' . get_the_author() . '</a></span>' ); // Finally, let's write all of this to the page. echo '<span class="posted-on">' . twentyseventeen_time_link() . '</span><span class="byline"> ' . $byline . '</span>'; }

In reply to: [WP Offload SES Lite] Amazon API Keys are not validI know this is a lot late, but are you entering in your SMTP credentials instead of your AWS credentials by chance? You need to get your API keys from here:

In reply to: [Master Accordion ( Former WP Awesome FAQ Plugin )] Changing the orderYea, sorting would be a great option. Plugin seems quite nice, but it’d be a huge plus to be able to rearrange the FAQ display order based on your personal preferences.
Seems like maybe one could integrate the menu_order option (in the wp_posts table) into the FAQ admin, then have the FAQ output sorted by that order on the end-user’s page. Though, there are a lot of complications that will creep up trying that & that’d require a rewrite of the output & some hackery to add the menu_order option to the FAQ posting area.
Probably the best way, if the author is reading, is to have a page in the WordPress admin where site owners could drag & drop the FAQs into the appropriate order (Ajax, probably), then update the database table.
Not sure if this will help much as coders can already think of workarounds, but maybe it’s something the plugin author can consider in a future update.

In reply to: [Random Content] Pulling random content once a day rather than on refreshIf you use a caching plugin and have post content refresh daily, I *think* this might get you what you’re looking for.

In reply to: [Random Content] find group ID?From your WordPress dashboard, Click Random Content > Group. Then, click ‘Edit’ for the group you want the ID for. In your browser’s address bar, find the &tag_ID=Number in the string – that number is the group ID.

In reply to: [WP-o-Matic] Full Article on WP-O-MaticYou cannot get any more information from a third-party RSS feed than is contained within the feed. This plugin will publish full articles if you have RSS feeds that contain full articles. However, most articles in RSS feeds are summaries only. You could write or hire somebody to write a script that will grab full articles from URLs in RSS feeds, but that’s probably not advisable unless you have permission from the website.
Lol… Not sure where my head was – I should have thought of this.
Thank you, and thank you for this great plugin!

In reply to: [Widget Logic] dont show on blog specific pageUse the “or” (double pipes):
!is_home() || !is_page('pagename')
You can then add in as many qualifiers as you need, at least I think… I use several for certain widgets.

In reply to: [Yoast SEO] Add custom sitemap url entriesI would be really interested in this, too. I took a few minutes to look around the plugin, but I didn’t see any obviously easy ways to hack into it to manually add anything.
Until this is resolved or this feature is possibly added, you could just create your own sitemap. Name it whatever and then add that new, custom sitemap to Google Webmaster tools, for instance. You could also reference it in your robots.txt file, too.

In reply to: [Yoast SEO] Multiple Sitemaps?Yes, this is correct – WordPress SEO works like this. If you want to disable pages, posts or attachments, or add tags or categories, those options are on the XML sitemaps options page for this plugin.
Here’s a writeup on why it’s no longer named sitemap.xml:
https://yoast.com/xml-sitemap-in-the-wordpress-seo-plugin/
Probably search for, “Which sitemap should I submit to Google Webmaster Tools” and read that & the next FAQ item.
Personally, I just grab the individual sitemaps and add those to my Google Webmasters account.
