Thanks for letting me know. I’ll take a look.

Mattias – this post should help. If not, let me know.

If you use that function, all you should see is a “Contact” link wherever you placed the code.

Do you see that?

Do you have a link I can view?

Hello,

Does JS-Lightbox-2 use jQuery? If it doesn’t, I don’t see what the problem should be. If it does, it could be that it requires an older version of jQuery.

Do you get a JS error or something when you include jQuery and your pictures don’t work?

You don’t need to delete the contact page. You just need to make sure that the link to the contact page looks something like:

<a href="/contact" class="smcf_link">Contact</a>

If the plugin is activated, it should work.

I think the intent is that the contact link itself would trigger the contact form and not go to a contact page.

You might want to have a contact page for non-javascript users, but the contact link itself (in your menu) would open SMCF. To make that happen, you just need to add class=”smcf_link” to the contact link.

“I tried that, but it didn’t really work.”

– What part of it didn’t work?

“When you say I have an older version of JQuery, does that mean I have to upgrade the WordPress template?”

– No, it just means that you need to make sure to include the version of jQuery that comes with SMCF, by selecting jQuery on the options page.

Sorry about that…I guess I didn’t put in the actual code!?!?

Try:

<?php if (function_exists('smcf')) : ?>
    <?php smcf(); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

If you still have issues, let me know.

Hello Carlos,

You should be able to just add the Contact link to your theme. Just make sure to add the smcf_link class to the code:

<a href="/contact" class="smcf_link">Contact</a>

Also, it looks like you are using an older version of jQuery. You’ll probably need to include the version that comes with SMCF for the effects to work correctly.

Which part is not working?

If the dialog just doesn’t show:
1) View the source of your page and make sure that the jquery and simplemodal js files are referenced and can be accessed.
2) Make sure the link has class=”smcf_link”

Indeed =)

@zotium – you need to rename the folder to smcf.

You can edit theme template files through the admin interface, but what about plugin template files?

To prevent confusion, pretend I never mentioned template. I just am curious if there is a way to edit plugin files through the admin interface. Currently it looks like you can, although I’m not sure what makes the file editable. Is it the comments at the top of the plugin file that WP identifies?

Can you have more that one editable plugin file?

It looks like all of the smcf files are returning a 404 – not found.

Example:
https://www.ongster.com/wp/wp-content/plugins/smcf/js/jquery.js

Turned out to be a local DNS issue.

If you already have a contact link in your theme, all you need to do is add class=”smcf_link”. Example:
<a href="/contact" class="smcf_link">Contact</a>

If you want the plugin to automatically add a contact link for you, you can just add the following to one of the files, sidebar.php, for example. Example:

<?php if () : ?>
     <?php smcf() ?>
<?php endif; ?>
