Hi, if a title of the blog post is missing, the widget won’t show anything but the year. Unfournately there is nothing to click. Would it be possible to implement something like: show thumbnail of post if title is missing?
regards
]]>Just a note of caution for folks working to rank in Google news… this plugin does exactly what the author says it will, I thought it was a great feature but shortly after implementing it Google News stopped picking up any posts.
Investigating this through Google webmaster tools showed me that links in the Time Machine sidebar widget were causing Google to reindex old posts and killed my ranking as articles had “Date too old“. A few days after I disabled the plugin google news is back, but it really killed my traffic for about a week.
Something to think about…

Problem I’m facing is related to the “Number of Posts” option. I wanted to show all, so I set it to 100.
If I exclude current year posts, it seems to work great – it shows all the posts from the past years, today for example I think it showed 8 different posts.
If I don’t exclude the current year though, it adds a blank line “2011: ” after all the correct posts. So it showed the previous 8, but the 2 I posted today and then a blank line with just 2011.
Suggestions?
]]>Great plugin! Thank you!
I would like to be able to list the posts in reverse order, with the newer posts at the top. Would that be possible?
]]>This wonderful plugin was a real find for us as we’d been searching for something like this for a while. There’s just one problem…
None of our blogs post on weekends. I would really like to force the Time Machine plugin to only take weekdays into its consideration of when to post something from the queue. Any ideas on how to tweak the plugin to make this happen?
Or is there another plugin that posts from a queue when the blog in inactive that might better fit our needs?
Thank you for your help!
]]>Hey there, I would like to know how to make available to show posts older than 2000’s… that is the date that I could show on the widget.
I have changed the posts dates back 1999,1945, etc but the widget doesn’t show this posts (older than 2000) so I have checked time-machine.php
and tried to change line 165 the variable $tm_y=200
if ( $options['range'] != "none" ) {
// define range for every year
for ( $tm_y = 2002; $tm_y < date('Y'); $tm_y++ ) {
$tm_backday = "$tm_y-" . date("m-d H:i:s");That for me it seems is the variable for the oldest post, but it doesn’t work neither as reference with other values such as 1900, 1945, etc.
What I want to do is chance the date to the posts to an older and show some dates “today: Back in history”…
]]>Hi,
I have been a long time user of time-machine plugin, it works great until I found out that I have to exclude some post from some cats. I realize that by default this plugin does not have those function. I did a digging and found this (at line 233):
$q = "SELECT ID, post_title, post_date, post_excerpt, comment_count FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status='publish' AND post_type <> 'attachment' AND post_type <> 'revision' $tm_private $tm_pages AND $q_range $tm_current ORDER BYpost_dateLIMIT ".$options['posts'];
I think this is the place to mess around to do what I want. But with my lacks of knowledge of sql’s, I need some help coding.
Logically in human language it probably goes like this:
get data FROM wpdb->post (like original code above) then cross the data with wpdb->tems NOT IN term ID ‘1,2,3’.
Any suggestion appreciated
