Sorry, this is a duplicate to the prior item.

Sure, this doesn’t make any sense.
Thanks for your attention.

The validation of version 1.1.8 works fine!
Could a similar validation of the Website URL (FILTER_VALIDATE_URL) make sense?

Another idea according to the placement of the question: It could be placed in the “empty” input field and will be replaced when the user starts to type the answer. I’m not sure, if this is a good idea.

Do you mean, a renaming of the error class (e. g. to “gb_error”) could avoid such cases? To prevent naming conflicts between classes of themes and classes of the guestbook?

I could verify the red border at your demo installation. It worked at my installation only at missing guestbook entry. It seems it’s due to my theme. However, I could solve this by adding a “!important”:

#gwolle_gb textarea.error {
border: 1px solid #dd3d36!important;
}

No it works.
Thanks for your hints!

The red border I can verfify only if the guestbook entry is empty. At all other cases I can’t see a red border.

This would be fine too.
Thanks for your patience!

Marcel, we see the same.
I’m not concerned about the label “Anti-spam: *” in the left column, that’s fine.
Yes, having the answer-input above the question might be confusing.
The user should be shown first the question and then the answer input field. I think, this is a more natural order of question and answer.

I’m so sorry, I forgot to enable it at the form!
Grrrr…
Thanks a lot for the hint!

But now, there is another curious thing: The answer field is shown one line ABOVE the question field (right of label “Anti-spam: *”). I asssume, this is not intended and the response field should be schon below the question.

Yes, of course I set both, question and answer.

Stefan, the css code should not be placed neither in Gwolle-GB nor in WordPress. It should be placed in a custom css file, depending on the theme you are using. It seems, you are using a theme named “Rhea”. So ask the provider of this theme where to place a user defined “style.css” file. I assume, it should be placed at wp-content/themes/rhea. Or, if you are using a “child theme” of “Rhea”, the file should be stored at wp-content/themes/rhea-child.
Regarding caching: Be sure, none of your plugins provides caching. May be you are using a plugin which provides caching and you are not aware of this. So switch off any plugin which might provide caching.
Caching can be done on server side and/or on client side. Typically on client side it is done by your browser. To bypass the browser cache, you might try “F5” or “Ctrl-F5” (Strg-F5 at keyboards with German layout). It depends on the browser you are using. So check for short keys concerning caching in the documentation of the browser you are using. Or give another browser a try.
I can verify the problem of a not active button “Neuen Beitrag erstellen”. In my case (using Chrome browser), it helped to use “Ctrl-F5” to activate the input form.

Cheers,

Eckhard

Dear Stefan,

recently I had similiar problems.

According to the CSS background of admin entries this solved my problem:

#gwolle_gb .admin-entry {
color: #CCCCCC!important;
background-image: none!important;
background-color: #191919!important;
padding-left: 5px;
}

Switching off background image is important to load the setting of background-color.

According to the other themes take care of any cache and cache plugin. For me, I had to delete cached files to make the guestbook run as expected.

Grü? Gott,

Eckhard

In addition: It’s not possible, to empty both fields at “Custom Anti-Spam Security Question”. If I set them to empty and save the setting, the last values get restored.

I could verify the fix. Yes, with version 1.1.5 the error didn’t occure any more.
Thanks again for the quick support and fix!
