Hi,

The pull request is part of the latest plugin version (9.0.5). This hopefully solves the issue.

@tobias: Many thanks for the solving the issue!

Kind regards,
Michael

Hi Abhi,

This can be changed with the options of the used shortcode, for example: [tpcloud link_style=”direct”] changes the behavior in the publication list to “The title of the publication opens the first link. All links are visible in the info box.”

Kind regards,
Michael

Hi,

Please check, if you see a database update message (“A databae update is necessary“) in the “All publications” screen of teachPress in the WordPress backend or under “Settings->teachPress“. If the message is still there, please click on the the “Update to …” link. The version 9 of the plugin requires a new column in the publication database table, which will be added with this database update. If there is a mismatch between the columns in the database table and the columns which the plugin expected, it leads normally to exactly the issues you have noticed.

If this doesn’t help, please check in your database if the table wp_teachpress_pub has a column award (wp_ is the default prefix – could be differentiate if you changed it for your WordPress installation). This is what the database update normally should add.

If this column not exists you can add it manually with the following SQL command (pleas note the table prefix could be differentiate):

ALTER TABLE wp_teachpress_pub ADD award VARCHAR (100) NULL DEFAULT NULL AFTER type

If the column is there and nothing is working, you should try to activate the debugging mode in WordPress: Debugging in WordPress – www.remarpro.com Documentation (WP_DEBUB = true). This should give you the opportunity to see the real error messages.

I hope that helps!

Kind regards,
Michael

I have no idea why Cloudflare blocks the edit URLs. But, I’ve changed the structure of the links with version 9.0.4 a bit. Maybe that helps….

Could you post a link to your hompage? This might be helpful to see the issues. ??

Hi,

Please check, if you see the database update message in the “All publications” screen of teachPress in the WordPress backend or under “Settings->teachPress”. If the message is still there, please click on the the “Update to …” link. The new version (9.0.0) of the plugin requires a new column in the publication database table, which will be added with this database update. If there is a mismatch between the columns in the database table and the columns which the plugin expected, it leads to the issues.

A second idea is, that the update was not downloaded correctly. So, the new update to 9.0.1 perhaps solves the issue.

Thanks for the report! Should be fixed with 9.0.1.

Hi,
A a short guide:

1. Open a publication in the edit publication screen in the backend
2. Insert a new line in the URL/File field
3. click the “Add/Upload” button
4. Choice the file (click the “show” link for this file entry)
5. Under the “Link URL” field is a button called “File URL”. Click it.
6. Click the “Insert into post” button
7. Save the publication

Now the file link is visible in the “link” list of the publication. If you want separate icons/buttons for that, use the link_style option, for example
[tplouc link_style=”images”]

Hope that helps ??

Hi,
Sorry for my late reply. Unfortunately it’s nearly impossible. The core problem is that teachPress doesn’t use the WordPress database structure like for example the wp_posts table. So the publication content is added to the pages at runtime. So a database based search plugin just can’t see this content.

A simple fix: just manually remove teachPress from the file system (for example with a FTP-Client). This deactivates the plugin and should make it possible to load WordPress again. (data in the database are still retained)

Hi,
Which version of WordPress have you been used?
determine_locale() is a core function of WordPress but only available with version 5.0 or higher.

Hi,
I think there is a problem with the custom path or there is a file in this path which shouldn’t be there:
It seems that the plugin found a “template” with file name index.php and search there for a class called index which doesn’t exist. That is what the error says.
Normally the default templates uses name pairs like:
file name: tp_template_2021.php
class name: TP_Template_2016

Thank you for this info! I will change it with the next update. ??

Hi Thomas,

If the data is not visible it’s mostly just a discrepancy between the table format and the SQL query, for example if the plugin asks for a new table column which doesn’t exists, if the update isn’t executed or runs in an error. Your data is still there.

If the problem still exists after the update please set the following options in your wp-config.php to activate the debugging:

define('WP_DEBUG', true);
define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', true );

This should help to see the real MySQL error message.

Hi, as I commented on Github: This should be now working with v.8.1.3 ??
