My pleasure, Nitheesh– and you guys well deserve it, I love your products and work!

Thanks for the above! I tried the above to no avail (restoring, restarting, etc.) to no avail, and upon reinstalling found that the culprit was how the files running on the old source sites’ version of PHP (PHP 7.x) weren’t compatible with PHP 8 that was running the MultiSite (for example, curly braces in referencing arrays are now deprecated as used themes; or syntax parentheses in shorthand if-then code also deprecated causing a bunch of sites using active VisualComposer builder/plugin going down; etc.).

I decided to stick with PHP8 and just manually fix every iteration of errors (at least only one version in the network’s /plugins/ for each) and that did it.

Noting this simple case here in case someone underwent something similar. Thanks for your help.

Hi Ryan,

I have yet to try go through all that trouble to try to make this work, and it’s a drag to have to work through that rigmarole, but I’ll do that, even if only because I do appreciate your taking time out to respond to my review, with details that aren’t a boilerplate response.

It feels like there should be an easier, even automated, solution and workaround to this, but will take your word and assumption that there is no other way.

Just for that support, I have changed my rating from a 1-star to 5-stars, with my hopes you will still be as accommodating going forward.

Cheers.

Same here, missing tags abound. (Sorry, jsut wanted to chime in that this appears to be a problem affecting more installations, and would appreciate any feedback.)

I have sent a support ticket again, and still awaiting a response, please.

I was hoping you guys can provide help, even if in a general way, before us having to go with the paid services like Wordfence/Sucuri/etc. (which are currently on high surge pricing due to high volume, and will further cost us a lot of money in service fees beyond the damage your plugin had already done), seeing as all this was caused by your plugin, and was not preventable by all the security plugins we had in place.

Not trying to keep blaming you (too late for that), but since it’s your product that caused this, perhaps you can provide guidance– if not direct assistance– as you must be aware of its pattern and behavior.

I have sent a support ticket already but wanted to point this out here because the damage has been unrelenting. Thank you.

I’ll definitely do that, and right away. THANK YOU again for swooping in and saving the day. (!)

@ocbroadband That did it, now works like a charm. You are a star!

Is there any site/product/survey or dance routine I may partake in for you to show my gratitude!

Thank you– you’re my hero!

Thanks very much for this, and for remembering!

It’s a big deal and am really happy with this update. Can’t wait to check it out immediately.

Thanks! I’ll message you there if my suggestion/question has merit (wouldn’t want to hassle you otherwise). Appreciate it, as always.

Thanks very much for that– really appreciate it. I hope that does too benefit the plugin going forward, but it’s especially useful for me. Both for Siteurl update, and as well for the grid pattern. Will definitely look forward to your update and any examples (and hope it isn’t too much trouble).

By the way, is there a way to contact you privately? I’d like to ask something specific (not at all about troubleshooting for my site of course, but hopefully something that helps). I’ve tried the contact form on your listed website but hadn’t gotten a reply.

Anyways, here’s the CSS I’ve used to update:

/* post images list */
/* .netsposts-posttitle { display: none; } */
.netsposts-column { margin: 0; }
.netsposts-column p { display: none; }
.netsposts-content { margin-bottom: 0; } 
.netsposts-content img { margin: 0; padding: 0; }

/* test: remove extraneous bottom pad */
.netsposts-content { margin-bottom: 5px; }

.netsposts-read-more-link { display: none; }
.netsposts-posttitle-link { display: none; }
.netsposts-source { display: none; }
.netsposts-content { position: relative; align-items: center; }
.netsposts-content:hover .netsposts-posttitle-link {
	display: block;
	position: absolute;
	z-index: 1;
	/* background-color: rgba(0,0,0,.75); */
	font-family: Lato, Merriweather, sans-serif;
	font-size: 1.5em;
	line-height: 1.3em;
	font-weight: 500;
	color: white;
	text-align: center;
	bottom: 100px;
	width: 100%;
	margin: 0;
    padding: 0 10px 0 0;
}
.netsposts-content:hover img {
	filter: grayscale(60%);
	background-color: #333333; /* rgba(0,0,0,0.75); */
	opacity: 0.75;
}
/*
.netsposts-block-wrapper {
	display: flex;
	flex-flow: row wrap;
	justify-content: space-around;
}
*/
.netsposts-content .inline-post > .netsposts-text-content { width: inherit; text-align: center; padding: inherit; margin: auto; }
.netsposts-content .inline-post > div { position: inherit; float: inherit; }
.netsposts-content .inline-post > .netsposts-post-thumbnail.align-left { margin-right: 10px; }

Thanks again!

Thank you so much for your responses– That’s absolutely incredible. (!)

Yes, I’m wanting to just show the images only and the title with a link on hover. Ideally able to list/display the images in grid/Masonry/flexbox/etc. form, and adapting to theme (or web builder) display settings.

Thanks very much for the note on #3 (Siteurl and Home)– you’re spot on: I was required by the dev of the plugin I’m using for domain mapping (based on Mercator) to leave Home as a subdomain while mapping to custom domain was made for Siteurl. So that’s what caused it. Maybe I can manually hand-enter the Home URL. But out of curiosity, is there a way to set the title link in the plugin to use Siteurl? Or would this break or have unintended consequences?

Let me apply your response and suggestions right away and get back to you. Thanks very much for your help!

Rick, That’s incredible. Thank you very much for your speedy and thorough reply (my apologies for not responding sooner, forgot to reenable notifications).

That’s really concise and useful information– good thing I asked you first, too, as this saved me a lot of time and grief: I wasn’t aware (or forgot) that images were directly attached to a regular post per se. I did assume that so glad to get your correction. I will try and apply them for my purposes and see if another approach will work, then.

I’ll also be dropping a 5 star review now– can’t believe I forgot to do that (thought I did) last time!

Thanks again!

Hi Blaz,

Yes, you read that correctly– kind of like how wishlist or favorites type plugins can do for logged-in (cookies/session) users as well as anonymous (cookies)– but no problem whatsoever– but yay on the upcoming IP verification! =)

As for the ability to have only one (or a different quantity of) symbol(s), aye, I had thought the actual rating symbols (and quantity, whether 5 symbols or 10 or 1, etc.) was abstracted out and you could have them so users can select. No worries on this either, but maybe cool for a future update; sure to get even more users for this excellent product.

Thanks just the same!

HSingh01, You used it for more than a month for crying out loud, and you still asked for a refund? Then when it wasn’t given to you, you whine about them being terrible people?

Based on your own writing it appears you’re the only one being a horrible, terrible person.

I’m not shilling for Elementor, and do find at times they aren’t as great as I want them to be, but really, you’re being unfair and just absolutely wrong on this one, buddy. Just swallow hard and know you only have yourself to blame.
