Super, that did the trick, thank you for the prompt reply.

Thanks for the explanation. I am not sure whether it is a feature or a bug, but it helps to understand the behaviour. Increasing the imported qty does add items on subsequent pages, but also adds “newer posts”/”older posts” link pointing to post pages that don’t exist (https://www.myURL/page/2/) So this is still a problematic implementation.

Hi,
The RSS feed contains 10 items at any time, but I have configured the plugin to only import 5 (Limit=5).
https://www.asphalte.ch/forum/feed.php

My expectation would be that the same last 5 entries are shown on each page of the post since the call to wprss_display_feed_items is done with the same parameters ?

Hi, thanks for your reply.
Here is an example:
– first page of post works:
https://www.asphalte.ch/news/2015/11/essai-mazda-mx-5-nd-oui/
– second and following pages of post report no entry:
https://www.asphalte.ch/news/2015/11/essai-mazda-mx-5-nd-oui/2/

Thanks for the suggestions, Hector.
I tried 755 and 775, but both result in empty thumbs being displayed. The only premission that seems to work is 777.

Thanks, that worked !
I created a new empty index.html, gave it 777 permissions and my thumbnails are now showing up based on featured images.
I guess that changing folder permissions was not enough, because the file itself was in 644.

I am however a bit nervous about leaving an html file in 777, what is the minimum permission level required by by TimThumb ?

I’ve meanwhile tested the feature post avenue.
Checked the FAQs too:
– /wp-content/plugins/wordpress-popular-posts/cache exists and writable
– GD library loaded on web server (2.3.7)
– added featured images to test posts
But I still get broken images.

Cache contains:
– timthumb_cacheLastCleanTime.touch
– index.php
Both empty.

When I try to view one of the generated thumbnails, I get:

A TimThumb error has occured

The following error(s) occured:
Could not create the index.html file – to fix this create an empty file named index.html file in the cache directory.

Query String : src=https://www.domain.com/wp-path/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/image_name.jpg&h=100&w=200
TimThumb version : 2.8.10

Problem is, index.html does exist in the cache directory.
Any hint ?

Thanks for your reply, Hector. The problem with specifying the path is that gallery_name in the path will change from post to post, I don’t quite see how this could work.

Is it a complex mod to pick the first linked image rather than the first uploaded image ?

Many thanks for your reply, I will try that.
I was reading off the FAQ tab on the plugin config in WordPress, they do say:

pattern_form=”{image} {title}: {summary} {stats}”

You may want to put this on your list of mods for the next release.

We installed WP-Boxer 2.2.0 free version, but all we got was an empty settings page. We had done the same in our sandbox instance and we could see the 6 settings and the upgrade button, but that did not work in the production instance.

We ended up installing the Pro version and recreated the 14 boxes that we had manually rather than taking the risk of hitting the database with an upgrade process. It now works fine.

It WORKS !
Thanks a million, I really appreciate the help.

For the convenience of others, the final code: this displays in the div only the available language(s), and no div if there is no translation available.

<?php
$switcher = pll_the_languages( array(
	'show_flags'=>1,
	'show_names'=>1,
	'force_home'=>0,
	'hide_if_no_translation'=>1,
	'hide_current'=>1,
	'echo' => 0
) );
if($switcher): ?>
<div id="LanguageSwitcher" class="styleLanguageSwitcher" >
<ul><?php echo $switcher ?></ul>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Thanks a lot for your suggestion !
Unfortunately, it does not work.
The language switcher gets displayed at the first function call.

$switcher = pll_the_languages(array('show_flags'=>1,'show_names'=>1,'force_home'=>0, 'hide_if_no_translation'=>1, 'hide_current'=>1));

Also, $switcher seems to be false in all cases.

Thanks a lot for the reply.
Does not do exactly what I need as I would like to display a div only if a translation of a post exists.

<?php if [condition]: ?>
<div id="LanguageSwitcher" class="styleLanguageSwitcher" >
<ul><?php pll_the_languages(array('show_flags'=>1,'show_names'=>1,'force_home'=>0, 'hide_if_no_translation'=>1, 'hide_current'=>1));?></ul>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Perfectly clear now, thanks a lot for your patience !
Getting readier to go live with Polylang !

Hi,
Thanks for the prompt reply.
I tried with all plugins deactivated and the twenty-ten theme, but I don’t see a change in the RSS content. I actually do not understand how it could work.
If the default feed URL is https://www.asphalte.ch/news-english/?feed=rss2, would there be different/separate feeds generated for each language declared in Polylang ?

In this sandbox instance, i have permalinks as default:
https://www.asphalte.ch/news-english/?p=123
Polylang settings:
– default language: fran?ais
– language is set from content
– remove language in pretty permalinks
– allow to synchronize categories

Thanks a lot for the help.
I have a separate question which I will ask in a dedicated thread ??
