Hi Liam, working great in Media library. Having a little thing with outputting the colour elsewhere though. I’m using this to provide the font colour using an inline style…

<h1 style="color:<?php echo get_post_meta($post_id, 'dominant_color_hex', 'true'); ?>" >" >Text here</h1?

This isn’t getting a hex value back.

I’ve looked at the codex:

https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/functions/get_post_meta/

I can see the hex number in the database as a meta_value. It’s not clear to me where this is falling down – could do with a fresh set of eyes!

@ianmjones thanks for explaining this. Prior to logging a possible bug, I think this thread is making apparent is that the interface for the find/replace aspect of the plugin is not clear. The precise same issue has been seen by it girl above.

It has caught me out several times, to the point I wrote this post. It is not in one theme or plugin set, but across a number of migrations that I’ve made the mistake of providing the full url. It is easy to do because on a shared server, the path might show as: /nfs/cx/hx/mnt/1234/domains/domain.com/html for example and without a transport protocol. Migrating usually (always?) involves a ‘proper’ URI.

So, the point being made is the interface of the plugin (which is otherwise brilliant and a real lifesaver for serialised data especially), might benefit from some clarity NOT to provide the transport protocol in the find/replace fields to prevent this human mistake being made.

If you definitely think the https://https:// issue IS a bug, I’ll log it. I’ve just had a quick look in a recently migrated site, but there’s nothing obvious in the log as yet… I use protocol-less coding as standard. The only specific place it is specified is in WP General settings.

I agree @ianmjones with protocol-less Find/Replace, but this plugin set up defaults with http:, so you can’t do this. It’s one for the developer to fix.

As it stands, part of the useful function of the plugin requires accessing the MySQL database and running a query to fix – therefore negating much of the plugin function and purpose.

Oh…

Well spotted! textbook error, sorry it’s really hot in here!

In case you’re interested, we’re using your plugin here: https://atouchofmrsrobinson.com/

Thanks very much for the quick response. It’s been really easy for my clients to add the reviews without any intervention from me as it’s really intuitive for them! Good work!

I think I have a similar question…

I’m trying to use the WP do shortcake option, i.e.:

<?php echo do_shortcode("[testimonials_cycle random="true" count='10' width='100%' theme='default_style' transition='fade' timer='4000' auto_height='container’]" ); ?>

but this throws up a parse error (url edited for security):

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /domain/html/wp-content/themes/theme-name/content-home-page.php on line 13

How does one incorporate this into a template file?

It girl, you have to take off http:

You start the url with // which is literally the stupidest idiosyncrasy I’ve ever seen in a plugin.

So, until the developer fixes this chaotic feature, you have to put:

//oldurl.com

And

//newurl.com

In the respective fields.

@emil, thanks for pointing out this unusual, but useful feature.

@cannonpult, thank you! It’s not as obvious as it looks! I needed transparent background, but you can’t do that on most theme colour pickers (including twenty fifteen).

The idea of putting it on here was to raise awareness and point out issues as you’ve requested. You’ve blamed my whole website and all my plugins for your plugin not working though? It isn’t a practical answer – or by definition ‘Easy’.

The other two mailchimp specific plugins I have tried worked first time – as does Contact 7 and Gravity forms, with no issue whatsoever.

Thanks for the reply. I’ve tried it on twentytwelve as the only plugin – still doesn’t work though.

@revivocreative – the above issue turned out to be a Safari bug. I think you have a different issue. Perhaps start a new thread and provide more detail about your set up there. I think you’ll get more responses that way. Good luck!

Is this still a possible option? Where are the kudos’ stored? Maybe I can make a widget for this?

Hi Esmi – Have done ?? Was just allowing the plugin developer to know that the requested fix may not be the answer. It is relevant as the fix does not work in the latest WP either…

Similar issue. I’ve explicitly added gravityforms_edit_entries, but this makes no difference – there is no edit entry being added – nor is there a ‘view single entry’ option…

Everything else looks great so far though.

Hi,

I can confirm I don’t seem to have any edit links either!

Also, not seeing any way to get Single Entry View either – will post separately on that…

FYI: Mac OS 10.9, Safari Version 7.0 (9537.71). It’s the new Mavericks OS and latest Safari. I have noticed some JS issues/hiccups with it on some sites, but not pinned down what is causing it. I have noticed that despite claims for speeding up JS performance it seems… about the same as before in the real world, but the browser feels really wimpy if you have more than a few tabs open these days (despite having loads of RAM installed).

I hope the above info helps though.

So, for anyone reading this far, they might want to try logging in with FF ??

Thanks for the speedy replies and helping out here. When I saw the plugin on the repository, I knew it was a genius idea and so pleased it is working perfectly ??
