Wow, thank you! This shows how the brain (at least my screwed up brain) works, looking for contextual signals and not even seeing anywhere. As the WP selectors appear just on top of the list, my eyes didn’t even see other sections, and believe me, I have tried many options before bothering you on this thread. My apologies then, thank you for your patient support, and for this great plugin you provide to the world.

Where?

Check this screenshot: https://noubel.com/wp-content/uploads/200110-screen-capture-JF.png

I see no options to filter by language.

Ok, I found a way to resolve this. It may help others.

1. Open the plugins page in wp admin.
2. On the server side, add the Better WP Security folder into the /plugins folder.
3. Refresh the plugins page in wp admin. You will then see the iTheme security plugin in deactivated mode.
4. Uninstall it. This means it will not only remove the folder on your server but also erase all data in the db.
5. Then do a clean reinstall.

You will have to reconfigure everything again, but at least you have an up and running website.

Hope this helps.

PS: maybe removing iTheme AND cleaning all information from the db would allow a complete clean reinstall, but I don’t know how to do that.

Hi Lisa,

Thank you so much. Yes, the pipe serves for your wonderful plugin and I don’t think we should change anything there. WP editor shouldn’t use special characters as control characters, it affects not only the pipe sign but also many other accentuated characters used in other countries.

So I would rather use the text editor or cut/paste than changing anything in your plugin. Thanks for your support Lisa!

Hi,

I just came across this very same issue with wp 3.9.2 and created another post here (I discovered this discution later).

Just for you to know.

Thanks.

Thanks David. I will try this soon and let you know what it creates. I appreciate your support very much!

Thanks you very much for your detailed reply and for the links.

I have checked these plugins before as well as others. Some of them don’t work anymore, other’s still work but because of their lack of maintenance I don’t want to put my work on jeopardy on them. So I would prefer nothing rather than a bad or weak tool.

I hope you will implement the wiki link feature soon, and I will become your best client and advocate ??

Please keep me in the loop when it happens.

Thanks again!

Actually, my css child displays the title as well, because I wanted it.

I could take the title away in my child css, but then I would lose it for all my articles and pages, if I understand well the quick fix you suggest. Any other way to do it?

Thanks David,

Thank you for your openness and listening David.

Well, you may want to refer to the wiki syntax as defined by MediaWiki: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Formatting

Here we come with a whole syntax, not just the links. I bring it here because:
1. it might help you gain more users used to this core standard, and who want to add wp power on top of it
2. these users may just have to cut/paste wiki syntax from other wikis into wp, so they can work with existing material.

I have seen such plugins that allow both html and wiki syntax work in wp.

Enough for the general picture.

Even if you don’t want or feel the need to integrate a full wiki syntax in your plugin, the most powerful aspect of links in writing wikis remains. That, for itself, makes it a killer I think ??

See a good description of it, still in Wikimedia syntax, here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext_examples#Links

I insiste again on the fact that the wiki link feature comes as the CORE way to build knowledge bases and wikis, as you don’t have to worry about links and existing pages.

How does it look like?

Thank you again!

Hi @david!

Thank you so much for your very detailed response and for the care you manifest. Very much appreciated!

I could follow the track you propose, however it always lead to high maintenance each time we get a new version, either on wp side or plugin side. I rather want to focus on the content and expect easier solutions (coming from a geeky side, I have learned about the hard choice between structure and content) :).

I really do love the wiki plugin that you do, and I think many people and organizations need it. However, the easiness to build links and potential links comes as the practical power of wikis. You don’t have to worry whether a page already exist when you create a link, it doesn’t lead to a 404. And you don’t have to worry about a page url that already exist, just name its name in whatever wiki syntax you have. If you had this in your plugin, I would jump on it, I mean the paying version.

So far I have a whole knowledge base that I want to build on collective intelligence. Conventional wikis offer poor CMS, poor editing and poor themes. No possibility to make fancy, nice articles. WP doesn’t offer the full power of wikis which I think relies in the easiness to build hyperlinked content on the fly.

Would you consider this direction in the dev? I don’t think it would take a lot of time and resources to implement that.

Thanks again David.

Hi Silvo,

Coming back to you with this same question. Still annoying to see that “related posts” appear in the table of content because of the <h3> in the code. Check https://noubel.com/going-post-monetary/

Do you still plan to customize? I would really appreciate.

Thanks!

Even more investigation that might help others.

I followed the instructions here: https://wptavern.com/common-issues-and-troubleshooting-wordpress-3-9
Deactivating all plugins + shifting to a standard theme didn’t do the whole thing. Clearing the cache helped me point to the real issue. And the issue came from… Revolution Slider version 4.3.7, supposedly the latest version. Well, since WP 3.9 they did an upgrade to fix this issue. So there we go, we can close this case and I hope my own search can help others with the same issue.

Ok, some further investigation. I deactivated all plugins and got the same results. Then I deactivated my current theme (viewport), and I got a decent text size again in the text editor. Hence my question: how can a theme that affects the EXTERNAL display of wp also affect how standard text appears in the editor?

Thanks Silvo. Not a big deal, and happy to see you guys making progress on this fabulous add on. ??
