The drop down list in the backend is fine:
shows all available groups.

These lists though (both front and backend) are sorted by creation not by alphabet. The latter would be more logical and more tidy.

Like Ashwani Kumar Singh said.

I too deleted all w3tc files, could access the website/backend and installed the plugin again. It works.

When looking into my debug.log, not only these above are shown, but also these:
[there were too many, so I dropped them in a pastebin]

Yay, I got it.

You also need to change the following line:
$default_sort_orders = array('date', 'title', 'comment_count', 'rand');
to
$default_sort_orders = array('date', 'name', 'comment_count', 'rand');

Or maybe not. ?? It works now. ??

Ok, I tried replacing
<option value="title"<?php selected( $instance["sort_by"], "title" ); ?>>Title</option>
with
<option value="name"<?php selected( $instance["sort_by"], "name" ); ?>>Name (post slug)</option>

See: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_Parameters

This should have caused the orderby variable for the $my_args to be “name” instead of “title” in the WP_Query.

But it didn’t work. The recent post now are just ordered by date but reverse.

PS: I looked up the values in the database and it clearly states:
“s:7:”sort_by”;s:4:”name”;”

Doh! Many thanks! One can even deactivate that field – might as well help to less confuse the users. Just upload the picture, who needs descriptions anyways? ??

Yes, I’m wondering about the very same thing.
Only: is it really a bug or a feature?

@als12 and Mr. Bingo:
I’m planning on doing just the same thing, but with (some day) over 100 galleries and not knowing where the uploaded picture belongs to, I’d suggest setting up an extra upload gallery as default, so when a picture is submitted by the user, you know where to look and move the picture to the correct gallery.

I know that’s not practical at all but better than browsing through all galleries to find the uploaded pictures.

So, I too would like to have this information implemented into the confirmation email as als12 proposed. ??

Thanks in advance!

I have both W3 Total Cache and Daves Live Search (v 3.0a2) running without a problem.

Which version of Dave’s Live Search are you running?

Try the latest alpha-verison:

Hi frank,

I installed WP DoNotTrack and set it to the following:

Stop 3rd party tracking for all visitors?
* Disable tracking for all my visitors!

Do you want to run in normal or agressive mode?
* Forced (beta)

And guess what? The newsletter plugin still works. ??

Hi frank,

it was just as you said: I set “I don’t mind 3rd party tracking” and Wysija works now.

But still, is there a way to have it both ways? Or is the other DoNoTrack plugin already the alternative to your optional bonus feature?

Thanks in any case!

My apologies. There were problems with the hoster’s database. Now the site is up and running again. Please check the two links. – I know it’s in German, but that’s not so important ??

I used the same code in both cases and made the mentioned hack, but it doesn’t work for a reason I can’t explain. There should be a number with a link after the speech balloons.

Anyone an idea?

*push*
It seems publishing a post in the middle of the night is not a good idea ??

edit:
gosh! That’s odd.

There should be 9 titles with a comment speech balloon showing up:

<h3>Wir fragen die Stuttgarterinnen und Stuttgarter:</h3>
<?php $recent = new WP_Query("cat=12&amp;showposts=9"); while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();?>
  <b><a>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanenter Link zu '<?php the_title(); ?>'"><?php the_title(); ?></a></b> &nbsp; <span class="comment"><?php comments_popup_link('(0)', '(1)', '(%)', 'test', 'X'); ?></span>
<?php endwhile; ?>

The weekend is almost over. Nevertheless I’d like to point out a few issues with the backend menus when you have many plugins. I have almost 40 plugins installed and so the menu that pops up, when I hover the (minimized) settings icon, the list is so long that I cannot reach the first 4-5 items.

Also the items are not sorted by the item title but by something else. Sorting the items alphabetically would make the menu a lot better to read and easier to find what you are looking for. Now, when a new plug-in is installed it turns into a sub-menu search.

Also there should be some kind of visual seperation between WordPress items and plug-in items inside one menu (that goes in general for all menus).

If I had more time on my hands I’d try to submit ideas how to solve those issues.

To all of you out there, who solve issues and make WordPress better every day: THANK YOU! ??

Hello Alex,
sorry, I was busy with other stuff.

I just installed it and it seems to have solved at least my problems. For the others hopefully, too.
