In reply to: [Comprehensive Google Map Plugin] Jquery APIv3 issueCheers. For getting help from the plugin developer or other users, please include the following:
– WordPress version
– The name of the theme active
– Installed and active plugins
– If possible, a link to the site or a public test site
– If possible, a log of the errors.The reason for this is some plugins and themes (specially themes/plugins from some developers on premium theme/plugin marketplaces) overriding the bundled version of Jquery with a older version (or never) causing other things to break. It could also be a script in a plugin or theme clashing with the plugin.
I did a quick check in the forums, and it seems that you are running a premium theme from Themeforest. A search on the theme name + jquery revealed that lot’s of people having issues.
I think you should contact the theme developer in the first place, as i belive it’s a issue with the theme.

In reply to: MAMP Error Establishing database connectionCheers.
Did you edit wp-config-sample.php and the renamed it to ”wp-config.php”? I know it seems silly, but sometimes even the best could do that misstake and forget this.
If the file name is correct, then there is something wrong with the settings.
Here is a wp-config.php sample file (on a MAMP install, but applies to all installs):
https://pastebin.com/mZ1VKE7fThe important parts is database settings and the database table.
define( 'DB_NAME', 'mydatabase' ); // Your database name define( 'DB_USER', 'root' ); // Never use this on a live site define( 'DB_PASSWORD', 'root' ); // Never use this on a live site define( 'DB_HOST', 'localhost' ); // MAMP and others 'localhost'
and:
$table_prefix = 'wp_myproject'; // WordPress takes care of adding this to the db
For creating the DB (ok, we are doing this in a reverse order):
1. Go to: https://localhost:8888/phpMyAdmin/ (Using a standard URL if you have the install at port 8888)
2. Create database (image link)
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17959832/database1.png3. Add user (image link) if this is set, skip to 4.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17959832/database2.png4. Now it should look like this (the row with “root”, the rest of itcan we ignore for this)
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17959832/database3.pngNow the install should be set up.
Point the browser to where your site is i.e. https://localhost:8888/myprojectYou may of course know the steps, but others may stumble upon this thread that don’t.

In reply to: Set Featured Image Fails on WAMP, WP 3.7.1Cheers. May seem like a stupid question, but did you set the ”Featured Image” for the post in the sidebar at the left hand side?
If so, try to regenerate the thumbs with https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ and reload.
If that’s not working, be sure to check that you have the proper permissions in the wp-content/uploads directory

In reply to: Instal XAMAPP and WordPress on same external drive, OK?Cheers.
While i work on Mac, it should be no difference.You can install WordPress on both of them the way you describe. However, be sure to not run them at the same time. If you are going to use XAMPP, stop WAMP (i don’t know if it’s like MAMP (Mac) with an start and stop application) and vice versa.
You could install WordPress on the external harddrive (in XAMPP), and then do a symbolic link of the WordPress install in the WAMP directory (so you only need one WordPress install).
Now i don’t know how it works on Windows, but i think it will work the same as in *-nix systems (Mac OS X, Linux, BSD and so on).
Remember, a symbolic link is not the same as a shortcut, even if it looks like that.

In reply to: [Codestyling Localization] Problems with translation when using poeditfranckbinisti -> Cheers. I think you need to start a separate thread as your problem is a different one. Be sure to read all documentation and look at in the forum for solutions (if any).

In reply to: Mandrill conflict event-calendar-schedulerWhat i don’t get, is according to the Nextgen Gallery changelog, this should be fixed. However, seems that lot’s of other plugin developers is going crazy over this, even after the recent updates of Nextgen.
Other info that may point you in the right direction:
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/44387/wp-mail-is-undefined (also check the sidebar for related questions)
https://radiok.info/blog/the-case-of-maintenance-mode/ (old, but it’s still valid).
I could not find a solution. Try to post at StackOverflow and other similar sites also.
Found a link that maybe the developer could have use of (then, i don’t know how the plugin works).

In reply to: Difficulties finding a similar themeHonestly i think you gonna have hard (as you said) time to find something similar. There are audiocentric themes with functionality like that site on the different theme premium markets. Keep in mind that many themes (especially paid ones) with lot’s of features, bells and whistles and eye candy effects is almost everytime pretty bloated (in many cases because the customers want that). So stay away from themes (free or paid) that screams out
“200 Shortcodes! 50 sliders! Quicktags inserting cute pictures of kittens! Super Massive Amazing JS Player more advanced than iTunes and Spotify together!”
??
Maybe something you could create yourself? Or do a mockup and post it so others maybe could use that for a new theme?

In reply to: [CodePinch - WP Error Fix] Some constructive feedbackNice to hear Vasyl! It’s always nice to see plugin devs answer that quick! I suspected that it was something like that. And regarding patterns, you probably have a lot more knowledge when it comes to Application code (as WP-Error-Fix is an app in form of a WordPress plugin) than i (as the app code is way over my head).
Cheers and good luck!

In reply to: [Polylang] Do not install it.Have to jump in to this thread. I understand that it could be very frustating when something breaks. And thrust me on this one. Been working with clients using plugins and themes from theme marketplace (that i will not name here) that could make grown man (or woman) cry when it comes to breaking everything.
But please understand that the men and women creating plug-ins and also doing it for free (OpenSource is not the same as free beer) + supports users (many of them on their spare time). With that in mind, take a nice walk or jump in to the WordPress Codex if you (or any other) feel frustrated next time (that’s a natural reaction on problems!). Later you come back and write an detailed error report (of course with a smiley at the end for the kids!).
The plugindev will love you that way. For real. As Chouby stated in the thread. It’s almost an impossible task to test every theme/plugin combination. In this case it did seem to be the Nextgen Gallery that breaks things. And hey! Both you (the user) and the developer will get learn something new (that’s how development works in general), and that must count for something?
I don’t know exactly how Polylang works, but i have seen a couple of plugins conflicting with Nextgen Gallery (or vice versa i should say). Most of them is conflicting with the Nextgen Gallery call for pluggable functions (at the top i the NextGen main plugin file).
Cheers
-> For the kids ??As i understand it means that the browser is reading the whole file as a string and runs out of memory. I could be wrong about the details, but it’s related to the browser handling of memory. Every browser have their own methods.
If if where you, i should test in IE if you are on Windows and then Chrome (Mac or pc), and last Safari (Mac).

In reply to: Editing javascript in headerCheers.
1. The Jquery version you like to use is quite old.
2. Don’t ever use the Google Jquery in WordPress (if you don’t have a really legit reason to). I know many who does, and the net is full of tutorials how you use Google CDN Jquery instead of the WordPress core one. It could break plugins and core functions in WordPress in worst case, it’s also blocked in some countries.3. As for the scripts. Don’t load them directly in the header. They should be enqueued in your themes functions.php so they load correctly and don’t create conflicts.
More reading on this at wpbeginner and the WordPress Codex
For example. Open your functions.php file located in the theme folder. Look in it to see if the theme developer has left any hints of how to accomplish what you want.
Here is a quick example how it can look:
