@markjaquith,

Is there any chance you could have a peek at this?

Hi firebird75,

Thanks for the reply. I am running php 5.2.5. I’ve never changed anything with my admin account as it relates to WATS. I did see an entry in the wp_options table and deleted it, then tried reactivating the plugin with the same result.

I’m heading over to your contact form…:)

Hi all, just ran into this issue with version 2.3 and wondered if anyone has come up with a solution?

I still haven’t been able to closer to this…can anyone offer any thoughts on this?

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

…start looking for “do_shortcode”…I think that you “wrap” your plugin function in this and by doing that you make your shortcode available in your pages and posts.

I’ve just had a look at the theme demo and I don’t believe it shows “read more” or “next page” links by default.

To get that functionality you’ll need to either hack the theme code yourself or use a plugin (for the read more).

See here:

…and here…
https://wordpressmodder.org/how-to-split-a-post-or-page-into-many-69.html

Those should be a couple good places to start at least…

Both 2.8.6 and 2.9.2

Yes. I am using it on several different MU installs without issue.

@adickson311,

Thank you! I just ran into the same issue and this was the fix. I wonder if this could be considered a bug?

Thanks awpcp, I look forward to any fixes you might be able to implement:)

An update to the part where I can’t get it working while hardcoded into my theme file…

I tried wrapping up the shortcode like this:

<?php echo do_shortcode ('[slideshow custom=1]');?>

…and it displays the black slideshow window and left and right buttons, but no images. If I use the same [slideshow custom=1] shortcode inside a post or page, the images are there as expected.

What could be the problem?

Here’s a link to the one with the hardcoded shortcode:

Here’s a link to the one using just the shortcode in a page:

Glad to see there’s some interest here dcannon1. I look forward to learning more when you can get to it and I’m sure others are as well. I would imagine the file management would work as it always has in WPMU, but I think there may be some naming changes. Like instead of /blog.dir/1/files/ it might be more like /blog.dir/theblogname/files/.

Problem solved. Looks like I had things right. Through the (always top notch) assistance of my host, they discovered the error log for Apache indicated that the plugin was tripping their security software due to the nature of how the cookies were being handled. The security rules have since been adjusted to correct that.

I just ran into the same problem after upgrading. I’m going through all my plugin and theme files now…ugh.

Could this be related somehow to the upgrade, or do you think these hacks just happened to be exposed when upgrading?
