Hey.. I just saw this.. and am trying to do this myself…

Just so I am clear since I don’t really know a lot of coding, am I updating what is after the $ above?? So, if I have a custom post type called “Case_Studies“, would I change the above code to:

function usp_modify_post_type($Case_Studies) {
return ‘post’; // edit post type as needed
}
add_filter(‘usp_post_type’, ‘usp_modify_post_type’);

Do I have that correct?

Thanks.

Michael

I actually never really figured it out completely, but think it isn’t related to the plugin.. I think it is some issue with my computer and that it doesn’t like Cookies…

Here is a link that seems to be related to the issue I am seeing:

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/cookie-error-when-logging-in?replies=117

So,only happens the first time I try to login.. if I try again, it works…

So, don’t think it is your plugin causing this..

Michael

Ended up removing this plugin because of this issue and no response…

This is my issues with WordPress Plugins..

People build them, but then they become unsupported, so they are “use at your own risk”….

And even if it is supported well at first, the author may move on to other things, and it quickly stops being supported…

Unless a plugin is supported by a real company (Yoast, Jetpack, etc.), I am really starting to stay away from Plugins, except ones that do very small things that I can live without if they stop working….

Michael

Anyone with any ideas I can investigate?
Thanks.
Michael

Jon,

You ever get an answer from anyone or test it out?

I use Yoast also, but am thinking of adding in the plugin to get more stats in my WordPress dashboard so I don’t need to log into Google Analytics to view all my stats.

Michael

Janis,

Thanks so much for the response. I’ll give that a try.
Won’t do exactly what I want, but may get me 90% of the way there.
If not, will definitely look into the “pro” version as an option as well.
If I create a few of my own custom menus, I may be able to get close to what I am trying to achieve with the “cut” and “paste” option.

Thanks again.

Regards,

Michael

Awesome..
Thanks so much for the explanation and patience!
I have set my settings so that if they try either the “login” or the “admin” they will just get redirected to my home page. I figure that way, at least google may credit me with a page visit from the bot, instead of generating a “page not found” message (which google doesn’t always like to see against your site).

So, that should stop anyone form getting to my login either directly through wp-login, or through the /wp-admin that normally redirects to that login. Now, they just get sent to my home page… no login screen ever displayed…

And only I know my secret login (which I will now change, since I published it on this forum….. ??

Thanks so much.. think I have it all now!
Have a great weekend!

Michael

Ok.. Thanks for the answer.

And apologies if my questions are basic, I’m trying to figure this out.

So, if I understand this correctly, there is a file in the “root” of my site called “wp-login.php”, which is what the bots know to try to access to login to my site. So, this plug “renames” that file to something else, so if the bots try to get it that way, they get a page not found or redirected to my home page, but no login screen…

And then there is “wp-admin”, which I thought was another file, but sounds like is actually a “directory” for all the admin stuff. And sounds like this directory has an automatic “redirect” which calls the “wp-login.php” file so you can login to the admin panel. And this plugin has an option to shut off that automatic redirect as well? So, presume the “smart bots” may try to get into the site either directly by “wp-login.php”, or by going to the “wp-admin” page and getting the redirect to wp-login.php.

So, if I set both of these to just redirect to the “home page” for example, or get an “error message”, then only way to login is if someone knows the secret redirect I created for “wp-login.php”.

That correct??

Thanks so much for the help…

Nirmal,

yes! If you select the “tips” top menu, you get a 400 page not found. But this isn’t an actual page in my menu – its only a placeholder for the submenu. if you view my site on a desktop/laptop where you get the regular (non-mobile) menu, then you can not even select the “tips” menu.. it just opens the submenus below it.

Is there any way to resolve this in the “free” version, or do I need to get the “paid” version to fix this?

Would changing the menu open direction to “left” or “right” solve it?

Thanks.

Michael

Dixota – Thanks for the info. Will give that a try. But would still like to hear frm plug in author since the plugin shouldn’t creafe 400 page not found errors !

Michael

Any ideas on this menu/submenu issue?

Thanks.

Michael

I was (finally) able to figure out how to add this to my fuctions.php file and now I can use shortcodes in a text widget and don’t need the custom widget anymore.

Amazing that this is standard functionality in WordPress!

Michael

Well, not sure what I did, but I finally got it to work in my ‘shortcoder’. I think the issue may be related to selecting either “ASYNC” vs. “SYNC” Google Ad types, in combination with some strange linebreaks that were getting inserted.

I ended up recopying the Google Adsense code again, but this time selected the “ASYNC” code, and it seems to be working ok now.

What is nice is that I can now use the Shortcoder plugin to easily manage the few ads I have since it has the option to “disable this shortcode”, so I can just turn off the ones I don’t want.

Saves me from having to get a whole, big, complicated ad management plugin, which is really overload for my site.

Hmmm.. I’m not doing any of that parameter stuff.. just copying Adsense code.

Here is the script I am using:

<script src=”//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js” async=””></script>

<!– Adsense Banner –>
<ins class=”adsbygoogle”></ins> style=”display:inline-block;width:468px;height:60px”
data-ad-client=”ca-pub-0484677102138292″
data-ad-slot=”1826110711″>
<script>// <![CDATA[
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
// ]]></script>

I’m just trying to put the google adsense code onto a blog post page for what I am trying to use it for…

Michael

Danny,

Thanks for the info, but I am not sure you are correct.

I just googled these entries and found a reference to them on GITHUG, and although I am not a developer, these do appear to be related to the mailchimp plugin:

https://github.com/crowdfavorite/wp-mailchimp/blob/master/mailchimp.php

If you look at the code in here, it appears to be referencing most of the names I list above.
