  • Hi

    You could do something like this in place of the code you’ve already tried:

    <?php $category = get_the_category(); ?>
    <a href="<?php echo get_category_link( $category[0]->term_id ); ?>">View similar entries</a>

    get_the_category() will return an array of all categories, so in this example I’ve used only the first result from that array to generate the link since I doubt you’re looking to have multiple “view similar entries” links on posts with more than one category.

    Try:

    .footer-column:last-child {
      width: 26%;
    }

    That should target the last footer column. If you see no change, try adding !important like so:

    .footer-column:last-child {
      width: 26% !important;
    }

    If you’re still having issues, a link to the site would be helpful.

    Do you have a link to the site so we can take a look? Any idea if that info is coming from your theme or a plugin?

    Hi Tim

    This is the Enfold theme from Theme Forest, correct? If so, the theme developer actually has a dedicated support forum full of people who know the ins and outs of your theme, so I’d recommend asking there.

    Here’s the direct link to the Enfold section of their forum: https://www.kriesi.at/support/forum/enfold/

    This error is happening because there are two functions in your site with the same name. One is added through code snippets, from the error message the other seems to be in the file at /home/calclaua/public_html/wp-content/plugins/functions.php.

    You’ll need access to your site files either through a file browser in your hosting control panel, or FTP. Deleting the fullframe_child_theme_setup() function from that functions.php file (or if there’s nothing else in there, deleting the file completely) should solve the issue. Remember to take a backup of the file before making any changes, just in case, as without knowing the purpose of the file I can’t say what else may be in there and how important it is.

    I’ve had a go at recreating this on my own 4.2.2 install and couldn’t reproduce the issue. This suggests it may be an issue with a plugin or theme in use on your site.

    The easiest way to verify is to disable all plugins and switch to a default theme (like Twenty Fifteen) then add an image and see if the problem persists. If this fixes it, you can re-enable everything one by one to find out which plugin is causing the issue.

    If this doesn’t fix the issue, report back and we’ll go from there.

    In reply to: blog spam

    One easy way to tell if a comment is spam is to copy/paste the content into a Google search. Often you’ll find hundreds of blog comments with the exact same text posted by a similar name. You can also look for things like “names” that are actually company names or other keywords, commenters who leave links to their own site in the text of the comment, etc.

    Once you’re familiar with the sort of thing they tend to write, you’ll be able to spot it instantly. As for what they’re trying to achieve, most of the time the answer is backlinks to their own site. It doesn’t make a huge amount of sense, but spammers are sadly a fact of the internet.

    Unless you’ve uninstalled it, your blog should have the Akismet plugin already installed. Enabling this will help to filter out future spam messages, which can be a lifesaver as your blog grows in popularity.

    If all of the below has been tried and you’re ready to call it a day and just use two separate images, you could look at a plugin like this. I’ve not used it personally but it looks like a good place to start.

    If you prefer to figure out why your original approach wasn’t working:

    The usual way to achieve this would be to have two different image sizes set in your theme, then single.php displays the larger size image, and index.php or whichever template is generating your home page uses the smaller size.

    add_image_size() is the function for adding a new image size and you would simply change the size parameter of the_post_thumbnail() in your different template files to display different sizes.

    If this is what you’ve already tried and you’re having no luck, have you regenerated your thumbnails? WordPress doesn’t automatically resize existing uploaded images when you change the image size settings, you’ll need to install the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin and use that to quickly resize everything to your new settings.

    Hope some of that is helpful!

    Hi

    It looks like other users are reporting the same problem with the iThemes Security (Better WP Security) plugin, I found a number of similar threads in the plugin support forum.

    The plugin developer has a few suggestions in this thread, including disabling scheduled backups and something called “File Change Detection”. It would be worth reading through that thread and seeing if the same solutions work for you as a quick fix to allow you to use the site.

    Hi, apologies for the late reply, I think this thread got lost in the shuffle a bit over Christmas.

    Just done some testing and I’ve located the problem, will push out a bugfix release in the next couple of days.

    Hi John

    At the moment there is no way to do this, but I think it’s something that needs looking into for the next version as a couple of people have requested it. Adding it to my feature request list! ??

    Hi there. Easy Image Display was developed as an easy way to display uploaded images (hence the name), not to display posts. Many sites have images that are not attached to any posts. You may find that a post display plugin has more of the features you’re looking for.

    I’m always open to feature requests for this plugin, if there is something you feel should be added to improve the display of images. Please also note you can manually exclude images based on their ID if you don’t wish to display “everything”.

    Hi

    By default the WordPress gallery (which is what Easy Image Display uses for its layout) will populate horizontally across however many columns you set. If you’re displaying, say, 5 images and want them all to display in one line then setting the columns option to 5 should do the trick.

    If you’re using the widget then it might depend on your widget area and theme styling. Please leave a link here if you’d like me to take a look.

    Noted, thanks both for your input. I’ll have to take a look into this.

    There isn’t currently a way to do this, although you are the second person to request it so it’s officially on my list for investigation.

    I don’t know how many images you’re dealing with, but if the pool of images you want the plugin to pull from is manageable you could always use the “only” filter option and list those image IDs. That way anything you upload that isn’t one of those specific images will be ignored.
