Hi Ernest,

Thank you so much for your quick reply. I have just checked your hint and turned the custom ajax handler on/off.

Unfortunately, there is no change in the behaviour:

I’m still getting the unrendered strings in the search input field.
[:de]Was suchst Du?[:en]What are you looking for?

I’m getting this behaviour on two different, independent sites. Sorry for the subtile frustration in my first request yesterday.

Again, thank you for all your hard work.

I think the error occurred after a WP Update, so downgrading is not an option.

I think I still need to fiddle around to find a solution. ??

Hi there,

I’ve had the same issue of disappeared sidebars since the last update of WP to 4.4. I’m running my custom developed themes on several sites, so in order to fix this I had to drill down to the problem.

When widgets are initialized, make sure you are using the ID of the widget, not the name:

<?php 

// Init your Widgets in your functions.php
register_sidebar(array(
    'name'          => __('Sidebar Left', 'your_theme_textdomain'), // don't use the name
    'id'            => 'sidebar-left', // use the ID
    'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
    'after_widget'  => '</li>',
    'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widgettitle">',
    'after_title'   => '</h2>',
));

// and then later in your theme...

if(is_active_sidebar ('sidebar-left') ) : ?>
    <ul class="list-unstyled widget-sidebar">
        <?php dynamic_sidebar('sidebar-left'); ?> <!-- Using the ID here fixed it for me -->
    </ul>
endif; ?>

?>

I hope that this will help someone who has the problems mentioned above.

Hi man,

thanks for your patience and your reply ??
I’ve got it working nicely after some fiddeling.

For everyone who is looking for a usage like this:

/* The field profile_image is a file upload field of the ACF Plugin. To activate a Simple Lightbox, do the following: */

/* Get the value of the field */
$image = get_field('profile_image');
/* Grab the ID of the image, and pass it to the wp_get_attachment_link function */
$lightbox = wp_get_attachment_link($image['id']);
/* Check if the slb_activate function is available */
if ( function_exists('slb_activate') )
/* if yes, pass in the variable which holds the package of the link and the image ID in order to activate the lightbox */
$content = slb_activate($lightbox);
/* Spit out the whole package */
echo $content;

Hope this might help anyone ??

I have just updated to the latest version. Boom – everything works as a charm.
This is one of the reasons why I love WP – community and plugin authors are just awesome!!!

Thank you David for such a remarkable reaction within hours. Perfect. I have been using MLA for a while now and I don’t want to miss it on a single installation.

Your Plugin rocks man! Thank you!

Best Regards

I can confirm this issue. All images are gone at first sight, so the media library appears to be empty – however, the images are still there.

I have just found out by disabling the plugin and tadaa.. all images are back.

Best Regards

Hi,

Very nice – Best Regards

Hi again,

Thank you for pointing me into the right direction. However, I have found an issue which was the thing that confused me (and propably a couple of other German users).

There are 2 forms in German, formal version and informal version.

Formal is the so called “Sie Form”, while informal is the “Du Form”.

Now, when you have the informal version selected in the backend (regular default language pack in WordPress), the backend language of the “Booking Calendar” switches to German as well, which is fine.

The Issue: when you are using the formal version “Sie Form”, the plugin stays in English in the backend which is due to some language detection issues I guess. Fixing this would be highly appreciated.

I needed to switch to informal German, which is not appropriate for my project.

Hi again,

I have had a look at the docs, but I can’t get it to work.
I have a function, which retrieves the image from a custom field:

function oxxo_createGridImage() {
    $output = '';
    // Prepare all fields to be used
    $img_aside = get_field('img_aside');
    if($img_aside) {
        $output = wp_get_attachment_image( $img_aside, array(255, 192) );
    }
    return $output;
}

Then I have used the example code, and passed in the upper function’s output like:

$content = oxxo_createGridImage();
if ( function_exists('slb_activate') )
$content = slb_activate($content);
echo $content;

What am I doing wrong?

I am currently uploading one image (800 x 600) . I want to use that image for the preview in the product grid as well as in the lightbox.

I hope it is clear, what I would like to achieve.

Thanks for your patience ??

Toby

Thank you for the hint, exactly what I was looking for.

Very nice – much appreciated!

Well, first of all guys:

Please don’t apologize – you are putting a lot of work into this, and it’s free so I don’t dare to complain about it. I have to thank you for all the work you are investing.

The issue:

Since my project is a multilingual website, I have de-activated and activated a couple of plugins which have to do with i18n / language management (ACF & qTranslate e.g.), but still, I was not able to figure out where the error was coming from.

Since my namesake Tobias had answered, it does work, I didn’t touch the code since then, it’s… weird.. however:

Instead of investing my time into the “why” I should simply drop 5 Stars to your Plugin ??

I have another question about mulitlingual stuff, but I will e-mail that to you.

This topic can be closed or nailed on the wall of “I don’t know..”.

Thank you, thank you!

Best
Tobias

Tobias

Thank You ?? – Great work then.

Awesome Stuff man ?? Thaaank You ??

Hi Alobaidi,

when scripts are moved the body section, it often is an idicator that some html-tags have not been closed properly. It happened to me a couple of weeks ago too.

I think you should look over the code again, just as a recommendation.
