Hi makre, if you don’t want to dig into code, try searching for call-to-action or banner plugins from WordPress > Plugins > Add New.

One example, which I have not tried, is called Custom Banners. It appears to be current, being compatible up to WordPress 4.0.1.

FYI: One reviewer noted that the free version does not have much functionality. If it doesn’t fill your needs, there may be better plugins out there.

(On the other hand, if you decide you want to learn coding, some good places to start are Codecademy [free] and Treehouse [paid])

Thanks for your response, Mike.

I added esc_attr as you recommended, and hopefully that will solve the problem.

I thought the issue could be something with the plugin itself, because I’ve noticed some other strange behavior, which I assumed was related. In the past, I think I’ve noticed that if I open multiple browser tabs with these kinds of FSCF forms on the same site, sending a form from one tab will actually go to the intended recipient of another tab. So, to continue the chef theme, if I had two browser tabs open, A and B, the form on B might get sent to the chef of form A rather than the chef of form B. Does this sound familiar, and if so, is it related?

Hi mrbsolution, I have gotten responses from Mike Challis on these support forums in the past. My hope was to get a response again. This issue concerns a potential problem with the plugin, and thus could be an issue for others as well. From what I’ve seen, Mike is always eager to improve the plugin. One benefit of a support forum like this is that the answers are public for all to see, and easily Google-able, so anyone else having the same problem will be able to learn how to fix it.

mrbsolution, your apology is accepted. It’s great that you want to help. People will be very glad for your quick responses, as long as you include answers to their questions. ??

On the original question: Anyone out there with Google Analytics experience?

Off-topic: Hello mrbsolution, it’s nice that you want to help, but you didn’t actually answer the question. If you want to be helpful: quality of response is better than quantity of response, in my opinion. If you don’t mind my asking, why do you respond to so many questions?

On-topic: Mike Challis, or anyone with experience, can you provide me any insight on my original question?

Thanks for your replies, Mike — greatly appreciated.

I’m having a similar problem, except that my background image does actually show on IE 11. But it refuses to show on IE 9 or IE 10.

I tried adding a border, tried using overflow: hidden, and even tried switching to a .gif background instead. Nothing seemed to work.

Did you ever figure out a solution?

If not, does anyone else have a solution?

Trying to remember, but don’t think I found a solution. I think I ended up using a one-column form.

If you want a simple approximation of two columns, you can check the option to make one form field follow another, but of course it’s not the same as having two separate divs.

Our best bet is to reach out to the plugin’s author, Mike Challis, to find out where/why the auto-close occurs. Can you help us out, Mike?

Hi liannemurphy,

As far as I understand, you’ll get one of these notifications every time a file changes. This means that legitimate WordPress updates and plugin updates will trigger an alert. Without knowing your situation, its hard to say for sure; however, I’ve received many messages like this due to routine WordPress updates. I’ve even received messages notifying me that my .htaccess file had changed, the funny thing being that the security plugin was the thing that changed it (in order to keep hackers out).

From your screenshot, it looks like you ran WordPress updates and plugin updates recently. Of course it’s possible that there’s something worse going on — it’s hard to know from this vantage point.

What version of WordPress are you running? Did you run any updates recently, or were you notified of automatic WordPress security updates?

Oops.

Solved.

This is from the Fast Secure Contact Form help link, which appears right next to Redirect Settings > Redirect URL: “You can set to # for redirect to same page.”

So to get Fast Secure Contact Form to redirect to the same page, just enter # for redirect URL.

Sure, just use this shortcode:

[sale_products per_page="12"]

If you want to show a different number of products, change the number after “per_page” to whatever number you’d like.

Updated to 4.0.13 and no unexpected characters generated. Thanks Mike!!

Hello again Mike,

I have always installed the plugin through the WordPress interface, never FTP.

I tried adding the bug catching code to the end of plugin.php, but it didn’t output anything. I modified it to “/wp-content/” rather than “wp-content/” and here’s what I got in the html output file:

Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, class ‘FSCF_Util’ does not have a method ‘activate’ in [..]/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 406

I’m assuming that this doesn’t have much to do with the unexpected output warning though.

Thanks for replying, Mike.

1. One site I tested this on was an upgrade from FSCF 3.x. WordPress said “227 characters of unexpected output” for this one. The upgrade was to FSCF 4.0.8, and now has been upgraded to 4.0.9 (which causes the same warning upon activation). FSCF 4.0.9, WP 3.6.1, PHP 5.4, MySQL 5.5.33-31.1.

2. Another site I tested on (just now) was a brand new WordPress install. This was a clean install — FSCF 3.x was never installed before. This site gives me the “229 characters of unexpected output” message upon activation. This install was FSCF 4.0.9. WP 3.6.1, PHP 5.4, MySQL 5.5.32-cll-lve .

The plugin activates and sends e-mail from both sites. I’m mostly concerned about security, if something is broken or at least malfunctioning. Do you know what’s going wrong?

This is my last try (probably).. Does anyone know how to enable plugins for Editor level users with code?

Thank you.
