Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll take a look at it, but I suspect it is over my head. I have the number of slides working OK, it just that once you change the number of slides you have to publish and then go back into the slider section in the customizer to see the different number of slides available. I was hoping to streamline that a bit but seems rather complicated for something that is not done very often (ie changing the number of slides in the slider section).

Great. Thanks. I had code similar to the stackoverflow article, but I guess I did not realize I had left out the event.preventDefault() statement. With that statement, it works just fine.

Thanks for your help.

Man! I don’t know how you figured this out, but I am eternally greatful. I have been fiddling with this for the past week trying to figure out what wordpress was doing with a post vice a get and could not figure it out.

I was experimenting with a simple form to see how it works with a page template and it just so happens that I too had a name=”name” on an input tag. Changed it to name=”fullname” and it works like a charm.

Thanks for your insight…

OK. I’m having a similar problem and the page template doesn’t seem to work either. Funny thing is it works on my laptop but doesn’t on my hosting facility.

I have a <form action=?page_id=4…> in the page template with <input> tags in the page. It works on my laptop (wordpress 2.5, apache 2.2.4 and php 5.2.5.) but doesn’t work on my hosting site. When it posts back (ie on the submit), I get a “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria” page back from the web server. What makes wordpress read a form postback different from a regular url entry.

In any event what is the solution if the <form> tag is in the page template (i have a different page template for this page and it is so indicated on the page (Page Template drop down) for the page edit screen.

What about some of the plugins. I have reviewed comments (in the forum) regards some of the “form” plugins and it seems they are a bit “buggy” as well.

Thanks for any assistance.
