Sounds like you’re running into a PHP memory issue. Try adding the following to wp-config.php define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT' , '512M' ); – change the value as necessary.

If anybody happens to need this, you can edit the plugin files to achieve an automatic slideshow, with delay.

Download the plugin, and in /animate-slider/assets/js/front.js scroll to line 28 and you will see the autoStart: false, option.

Change this to auto: true, and beneath it add another line saying pause: 8000,

Change the pause value to reflect upon your required pause time (in ms).

Hi Sudar,

Looks like you’ve nailed it. I’ve installed the updated plugin, and everything seems to be working fine!

I’ll let you know if I stumble upon any errors in the future, but thank you so much. You’re a credit to the WP community.

Apologies, yes Custom Post Type.

I will email you when I get a moment.

Thanks

Hi,

It’s a custom made theme (made for me) with the custom field coded in. The way the theme has been built allows me to rename this custom field at any time, but at the minute the custom field name is “Listing” and the slug is “cars-for-sale”. The custom fields can be searched from the frontend.

Not sure if this helps at all, but it’s as much information as I know.

Hi, yes I have plenty of old posts. I have also tried varying the days to less and more but this makes no difference.

It always used to work fine, so I can’t see it being a PHP issue unless you’ve knowingly upgraded any deprecated code, right?

To further test this I have now uninstalled the 4.2.1 version of your plugin, and installed version 3.5. And sure enough, Custom Post Types can now be deleted without a problem.

Do you have any thoughts?

I’m a little hesitant to give server/admin access as this is a live membership-based site. But if you deem it necessary I may be able to comply.

Thank you for your help so far.

Hi Sudar,

Yes I’m still having this issue unfortunately.

Plugin 4.2.1
PHP version is 5.2.6
WordPress 3.7.1

Filters My typical deleting habits are as follows:
Bulk Delete Posts > By Custom Post Types
– [custom-post-type] – Published Posts
– Only restrict to posts which are older than 30 days
– Delete permanently
– Delete now

However, I have tried all variations of these filters (e.g. ‘Move to Trash’ rather than ‘Delete’) and still no luck.

However, as I said if deleting ‘By Post Status’, for example, it works fine. It just seems to break when filtering involving my custom post types.

Just a note to say I also get this same message upon accessing the “Bulk Delete Users” page, so not an isolated incident.

On an unrelated note I understand Sudar (the developer) has just had a new addition to his family – so congratulations!

Also having this exact issue with my Custom Post Type. Any resolutions as of yet?

Hi Gabor,

Perfect! Finally got around to trying this out and all seems good ??

Can’t thank you enough for your help, you’re a lifesaver. I’ll mark this as resolved.

Thanks again, and all the best.
Jay

Hey Gabor,

Hope you had a great Christmas. I’ve tested out the updated plugin, and I have the following to report:

If a post expires using the default expiration time as set within the plugin settings, then my email function is fired and it works perfectly. Great!

However, if an alternative expiration date is manually set on the Post creation page, and that expiration time is reached, my email function does not initiate.

Hope this makes sense. Can this be rectified at all?

Thanks,
Jay

Hey Gabor,

Thanks for the reply. I understand that you’re currently preoccupied travelling and such – not to mention other projects, but any updates on this?

Are there any quick (read: easy!) changes I could make myself to my function above that could remedy the issue? i.e. hook into something other than “wp_trash_post” for example?

Thanks, Jay
