Hello,
Today Wordfence alerted me to the possibility that this may be an abandoned plugin. Coming to www.ads-software.com to check on this plugin, it is now flagged with the warning at the top of the page:
“This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.”
As far as I can see, it still works fine, but I’m running this plugin on several websites and obviously am wary of running plugins that are abandoned which could simply stop working at any time, or worse, present security gaps for clients.
Any response will be appreciated. Thanks!
]]>When I add column classes to the Genesis Sandbox Featured Content Widget, the columns are not responsive, which looks weird on mobile devices. Can it be added in a future version of this plugin?
]]>Hi – Great plugin. Simple question: how can you set exactly which post or posts that you want to show? We tried to “exclude terms by ID” but that doesn’t seem to work.
]]>I have deactivated all of my plug-ins and that doesn’t help. I went to update featured posts, they disappeared from my homepage, and I can no longer select any of the check boxes from within the widget to reset the featured posts.
]]>Hi,
Checkbox are not clickable since WordPress update 4.9.
Thanks.
]]>Hi there,
I noticed that the plugin page has the following alert:
This plugin hasn’t been updated in over 2 years. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.
I also noticed that on Github repo there are several pull requests that were never merged (I also sent a new one today).
Is this plugin still maintained? Any plan for new releases?

]]>I use this plugin on my homepage (www.mydarlaclementine.com) to display latest posts. Originally it was working so that three images would line up nicely on one row, and 3 below it (displaying 6 total).
Lately my featured images are being displayed at a different size, messing up the alignment. I had to reduce to showing only 3 latest posts as they scatter oddly across the screen when I do more.
– All featured images are sized at 800×532 in the media library
– I haven’t changed any settings for the plugin
Why are my most recent posts displaying larger images? And how can I fix the sizing so that I can again put 6 posts, to get 3 in one line and 3 in the next?

]]>Hi There – thanks for a REALLY great plugin – this one is a staple of every site I build! Can you (or anyone!) help me figure out how to use a hook on this?
I’m trying to link my title to a custom URL that is designated on each post via a custom field.
I’m sure I can handle the custom loop, if someone can get me started with how to set up the hook!
If it matters I have the widget set up to pull in the title only and link to the post. I just want to change that link to the URL from the custom field.
I figure I can set up a custom loop with the title linking to my custom field by using the custom content block hook, but I can’t get the hook to do anything. Here is what I’ve put on my functions.php:
add_action( 'gsfc_show_content', 'outside_link' );
function outside_link () {
echo 'I can figure this part out, but I just want to figure out how to get the hook to work first';
}
Grateful for any insight. Thank you!!!

]]>Says this on your front page “Added remove displayed posts option (won’t display a post that already exists on the page)”
I take this to mean that the widget won’t display the current post – which is exactly what I need – I can’t seem to find that option anywhere in the widget.

]]>We’re setting up groups of 3, using the “Post ID” to select the content to be displayed, but it appears that our only sort options are Date, Title, etc. Is there any way to just have the items appear as we input them in the ID field? i.e. 2, 3, 1.
Thanks.

]]>I want to be able to display different posts with different layouts on a on static widgetized homepage.
I used the Genesis Sandbox Featured Content Widget plugin to display one post, with a whole width column, without pagination.
Underneath that, I set another “Sandbox” widget to display 6 posts in a different layout (1/3 column class), and I set it to work with pagination.
All looks as intended on the home page, but when I navigate to page 2, the first “Sandbox” widget is being shown again. It is also displayed on all the consecutive pages.
Is there a way to display the first “Sandbox” widget content, only on the homepage?
I appreciate any suggestions!
