I updated to version 1.7.3 and the controls are still not there.

So the style attribute gets stripped out but the span tag remains. Will this be the case in future updates? I would like to use that remaining span tag as part of a selector in an external styelsheet.

Your welcome,

In case you or someone reading this post is interested, I found the solution to my problem here:
https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-migrate-db-pro/doc/migrating-to-http-or-back-to-https/

It has to be the Migrate DB plugin. I’m not moving the .htaccess from live to local. I’m not moving any files. All the Migrate DB plugin does is change the nessessary URL’s and then creates a database file for me to download. Next I open phpMyAdmin on my local server, go to my WordPress database and delete all the tables in it. Then I import the new tables from the file that Migrate DB created. I’ve checked my local .htaccess file before and after this process and it doesn’t change. There is no Really Simple SSL info in it. I only installed Really Simple SSL on my local site after it switched to SSL. I installed it so I could run the deactivate script. I never activated it.

After reading the thread that you suggested I discovered that my index.php file was missing from my theme. No idea when or how that happened. Replacing it fixed the missing page Template problem.

Running the deactivate script before opening my local site in a browser works great for now. I’ll have to contact the WP Migrate DB plugin author to find out why the database migration is switching my local site to https.

Thanks so much for your time and patience!

Thanks again,

For some reason, in the WordPress admin, the option to change page Templates under Page Attributes has disappeared from my local site.

Also is there a way to migrate my database and not have to clear my entire browser history after running the deactivate script?

Thanks for your quick response,

So I got my local site working now but I still can’t migrate my database from my live site to my local one without https being automatically added and breaking it. I’m using the WP Migrate DB plugin with the settings they suggest for people that have SSL on their live sites.

Do I need to deactivate Really Simple SSL on my live site? If so will SSL still work properly on my live site? I don’t understand how the plugin is supposed to be used. Are you supposed to activate it and then deactivate or are you supposed to always leave it activated?

Have you seen way.js? I’m pretty sure it will work.

I forgot that the thumb sizes were set in the wordpress admin settings. I’m still confused about something though. If I set the thumbnail size in wordepress to 100 x 100 with your plugin deactivated, wordpress adds width and height attributes to the image tag. This makes the max width or height 100 pixels as I would expect. With your plugin activated, the width and height attributes are gone and the thumbs display with a max width or height of 152 pixels for some reason. Even though the Gallery Image Size drop-down list in your plugin settings displays “Thumbnail (100 x 100)”. I also tried setting the thumbnail size in wordpress to 200 x 200 but the thumbnails display at a max width or height of about 150 pixels whether you plugin is activated or not. I’m guessing the thumbnail sizes need to be set before uploading gallery images.

Hope that all makes sense.

Okay now we’re getting somewhere. I didn’t try setting the HTML Format to HTML5 with the new plugin update. With that setting my gallery layout looks great! The thumbnail size is still affected by the Gallery Image Size option under the Image Sizes tab. I tried the blank option and the Original File option but they both generate huge thumbnails. It would be nice if there was a “None (use active WordPress theme defaults)” option for the Gallery Image Size also. The 150 x 150 option looks good but still it would be nice if my theme set the thumbnail size. That way I could have different thumbnail sizes for different screen sizes.

Thanks for all your help and patience

I installed the new plugin version that you sent me. I set the HTML Format to Default and Theme to None and I’m still getting styles from the plugin. The thumbnail size and alignment are both being affected. Turning the Styles off under the compatibility tab still doesn’t help.

I sent you an email about the other features that you wanted me to look at.

My goal is to disable all styles with the exception of those used by fancyBox. I tried setting the Theme value to none but there are still a lot of RPS Image Gallery styles being applied to my gallery. Turning the styles off under the Compatibility tab doesn’t seem to do anything.

I’ve uploaded my theme and sent you a link to it, but my theme is not meant to work with all types of content and it relies on other plugins to display properly. The gallery should display fine though. Here’s a link to what the gallery should look like:

I am building the theme for my client so it’s not publicly available. I could override the style rules that RPS Image Gallery is adding but there’s a lot that use the !important rule. I’m also concerned that future updates will have different style rules that need to be overridden.

Here’s a link to a gallery page using my theme:
https://allayn.com/night-to-discover-2014-photos/
Both the “HTML Format” and “Theme” are set to “Default”.

I can send you my theme if you can provide a method for sending it. This is the first theme i’v made so feel free to point out any mistakes I may have made.

It still doesn’t work. I tried setting the Theme to “Default” and tried all three HTML Formats. I also tried setting the Theme to “None” and tried all three HTML Formats. The only way I can get the gallery to display properly is to deactivate the plugin.
