Wordfence’s scan is telling me that “The Plugin “Blog-in-Blog” appears to be abandoned (updated 03/03/2012, tested to WP 3.3.2).”.
Would you please clarify whether:
1/ the plugin blog-in-blog is still maintained and managed and updated from time to time by the plugin developpers?
2/ the plugin blog-in-blog is still working well on wordpress-created websites?
Thank you and best regards,

]]>I just spent an hour or so fixing this so I thought it might be useful to others as well.
If you specify a WxH-style thumbnail size when using the blog_in_blog shortcode on a WordPress install running with PHP 7.0, the plugin will fail to render (and halt rendering of your page). This happens because there is a split in the code, which was deprecated in 5.3.0 and removed in 7.0.0.
Replace the split on line 123 of wp-content/plugins/blog-in-blog/blog-in-blog.php with an explode and you’ll be back in business!
Hi guys,
Love this plugin guys, I would be lost without it!
Probably really simple but I cannot find the solution anywhere. I do not like the way that the plugin shows a blank avatar image. In fact I would like to either remove the avatar all togethere or show the featured image for each post instead.
The pages in question are:

https://www.firestickreviews.com/news/

Sorry about the link drops I just wanted to show I am finding my problem on multiple pages (in fact there is more)

]]>I have multiple custom post types. I want to show just one category from one of those CPT. Like:
[bip custom_post_type=’type-one’ category_slug=’first-category’ num=10]
Thanks.!
]]>here’s my short code:
[blog_in_blog category_id=’27’ category_slug=’news’ num=1]

I can’t seem to edit the page that show the actual blog post. I can edit the main page that lists the blogs on the main page but cannot figure out how to edit the pages that are created by each individual blog post.
Help?

]]>Hi,
I’d like to use this plugin to add 3 blocks of recent posts on a home page. However, I’d like to have a way to limit how many posts and also to be able to categorize them. Example:
3 most recent posts from Category A (in block 1)
3 most recent posts from Category B (in block 2)
3 most recent posts from Category C (in block 3)
Is this possible and if so, how would I accomplish this with shortcodes? I don’t see a short code for recent posts, just post_id.
Thanks!

Some posts only have content, so how can I check if the post-title is a star or not? Right now, when the title is empty, it leaves a blank space.
I want to have a check: if the post-title is a star, dont print it on the screen. if not, print it! I tried this, but nothing happened:
<script>
var postTitle = %post_title%;
if(postTitle == “*”){
//Do nothing
}else{
document.write(“<h2>%post_title%
</h2>”);
}
</script>
I am setting up mini-blogs using BIB. An example of a page is here. I want the title, “The View from the Chair”, to not be visible. How can I remove that? Thanks in advance for your attention to this matter.

]]>I am using a custom template, and am not turning off pagination in the shortcode. I’m calling 12 posts and I have many more, but the pagination links don’t show. I can see via code inspector that the pagination div is there, but it’s empty. Here’s how the line of code reads:
<div class="bib_page_nav"></div>
Here is the shortcode I am using:
[blog_in_blog template=”abel_blog_page” num=12 pagination=on]
And here is the blog where pagination is missing
How can I get pagination to display?
]]>You have %post_thumbnail% available for templates which provides the full <img> html for a post’s thumbnail. However, I just want something like %post_thumbnail_url%, which just returns the URL of the thumbnail image associated with the post. Thoughts?

Hope we can figure this out as this bug is quite annoying.

]]>I upgraded a site to JetPack 2.7 today, and that caused Blog in Blog to stop working, generating error messages like
Notice: Undefined index: current_post_id in /Library/WebServer/Documents/TNG_WordPress/wp/wp-content/plugins/blog-in-blog/blog-in-blog.php on line 669
and the “Call Stack” references things like
16 0.2862 30958336 Jetpack_Media_Summary::get( ) ../functions.twitter-cards.php:53
17 0.2870 30974648 Jetpack_Media_Summary::get_excerpt( ) ../class.media-summary.php:181
Deactivating JetPack allows the pages with Blog in Blog on them to show correctly.
Activating JetPack and the errors are back.
Blog-in-Blog was working correctly with the previous version of JetPack.
I’m nowhere near clever enough to figure out what the problem might be.
Thanks

]]>Dear Sir,
I am running the following site : https://www.net-recrute.com
I have Wodpress 3.8, “Path” theme and “Blog-in-blog” plugin.
My posts a re divided on many categories. Blog-in-Blog manages 1 special category.
I publish 2-3 posts per day.
“Blog-in-blog” does not publish the latest posts on my home page. It just publishes very old posts.
I have tried default themes and the problem seems the same.
Is there a way to fix that?
Thank you in advance,

]]>I’m trying to create a picture blog inside a page for a kindergarten and I finally have the style the way I like, but the browsing options don’t work inside the blog-in-blog space, browsing still works in the article page, but the point is to rather list all the posts in the page and not link to them. Is there any hope?
I noticed that in the editor NextGEN Gallery creates one display picture to identify the gallery, which is then the only picture displayed in the blog-in-blog space.
