I hear you! I was just researching if there was a way to have the ID show up in the Media uploader, after I’ve uploaded images to a saved page. No luck.

However, there are 2 plugins, the first I’ve used extensively, that reveal IDs for everything in their respective Edit pages, e.g., for Photos/Media, after installing one of these plug-ins, go to (Media > Library).

These help greatly, but when I want to create a Gallery with shortcode, it’s still tedious to go out of the Media Uploader & the page/post and into Media > Library and back again, so I keep two tabs open, an extra one simply for the Media > Library.

OK, so one is able to add new image sizes via add_image_size, and you can also adjust/finetune the crop the default WP thumbnail after you’ve uploaded the photo.

But how do you adjust/finetune the crop of the images added via add_image_size?

dvkob: Agree with gcarson. Worth a donation very shortly, here, with the savings in time every week.

Same error as gcarson. Fortunately had backup of previous version available.

I’m noticing that I cannot apply *any other* category to an Event, other than the default-for-this-plugin “Events.” Is this currently the scope? (I might understand why; for example, scope creep/possible issues of the display on any other category archive page besides “Events”)

[Your contribution of this plug-in is greatly appreciated.]

Ditto to smackalino. Will donate if you upgrade plugin to be fully compatible with 2.8.4+. Have budget.

Unfortunately, the person, who updates this plugin, posts new plugin updates to his site BEFORE he posts them here. Try the recent upgrade he add in July.

I have a remaining 2.3 install and had the same problem. Just put the code in your footer. What code, you say? Find it on your Piwik install at:

For example (in Piwik 0.4)

https://server.where.installed.com/piwik/index.php?module=SitesManager

and click on the link, next to the site you want the code for, that says:

“show tracking tag”

And it will give you a page to copy the Piwik code for your site.

@otto42:

What if you NEED to change the media URL if it has changed, for example if you must change your site URL or need to update the location of your file uploads (say to something other than “/wp-content/uploads/”)? Or say, if you upgrade your WP site in a different “home” directory.

For example: /home/.blahblah/username/old.domain.org/ ends up being inside the URL of the Media item, and I can’t change it in the “Link URL” field when I “show” and item in the Media Library.

Sometimes, we change our minds, too, for where we want our media to be stored!

As of now, the only way to do this is to find the location (“guid”) in wp_post in the database, I believe?

Yes, same thing happened to me with one of our sites. Can’t figure out why.

After a recent WP upgrade from 2.3.3 to 2.7.1, and Redirection from 2.1.4 to 2.1.13, the following occurs, even with all plugins turned off except for Redirection:

When going to root page (https://domain.com), the home page returns the 404 error page.

* Home page is the index.php page.)

* Reading Settings: Front page displays (x) Your latest posts

Kitchen sink button? Please tell me! Where is that?

Spot on. I’m also attempting to autotag references to about 50 acronyms, which are all caps, e.g., RA, RB, RBA, RBB, RE, REB, REC, RES, RET, RH, RHA, RHC, RHD, RHE, RHI, RHN, RHS, RP, RPC, RPP, RPT, RPV, RT, RTA, RTB, RTE, RTI, RTM, RTT, RX, RXA, RXC, RXD, RXL, RXN, RXP, RXS. The autotagging feature grabs all references! Yikes! You should have seen our WP site after using the Auto Tag feature! For example, every instance of RE/re was tagged “RE”! LOL! Thank goodness for BlogPIG Nuke Tag and being able to start all over! My concern for later advances in this plugin is the various ways one of these acronyms could appear, e.g., “(RE)”; “RE/Name”; “RE,”; “RE;”; “RE:”.

Regardless, plugin greatly appreciated.

Yes, please! I’ve been searching for a 2.7x-compliant way to replace documents (Office, Word, PDF, essentially) that have been uploaded via the uploader (aside from replacing via simple FTP).

Otto42,

Thanks for responding to this issue. Our WP-hosting server is behind a proxy, but we WANT to be able to see which plugins are in need of updating. Instead of editing out the portions of the code described, where can we “insert” the IP and Proxy Port?

We already included both in snoopy.php…

Danke.

Arne & temporaldeideias,

Temporaldeideias’s issue happened for us for our WP-hosting server that is behind a huge, honkin’ firewall/proxy. WordPress was attempting to go outside the firewall without the proper credentials (host and port)!

So, finally, we figured out to go into /wp-includes/class-snoopy.php and substitute these values:

var $proxy_host = "HERE"; // proxy host to use
var $proxy_port = "AND_HERE"; // proxy port to use

additionally, these values, if proxy requires user/pass. Not necessary for us.

var $proxy_user = "HERE"; // proxy user to use
var $proxy_pass = "AND_HERE"; // proxy password to use

After putting in the correct settings, we experienced NO MORE fsockopen errors!
