Hi sorry for the delay! Apparently I was unsubscribed from this support forum somehow. There isn’t a shortcode at the moment. That’s a good idea though, I’ll take a look and update this ticket if I get a chance to implement it.

Thanks for the note…it looks like something on their end. My plugin uses RSS feeds from Pinterest to get the url of each image. It looks like they are giving broken links in the RSS feed because my images don’t work either when directly subscribing in Google Reader. I see a few people complaining about it on Twitter as well. At this point, there’s not much I can do to fix it because they don’t have an API, I hope they take care of it soon

Hi acejax,

I haven’t added that functionality yet. Things are a little limited in what we can do with Pinterest since they don’t have an API available to developers. Everything is done with RSS feeds at this time, so it makes it a little more complicated to offer more advanced functionality in a reliable way.

Thanks for the suggestion though, when I free up a little time, I’ll take a look at the level of effort / possibility of implementing it.

The code above was specifically for the theme that mommacrocodile was using. If you replace where it says #sidebars with the div id that your sidebar is within, it should work for you too. If you post a link to where I can see the plugin, I can take a look at it. Your current link says its coming soon

No problem. I don’t have a donate link, a positive rating is good enough for me ?? Let me know if you have any other issues, thanks for using the plugin

Hmm weird…I think your stylesheet has a typo at the very beginning of it that is causing it to ignore the first block of styles that you added.

In your custom.css, the first lines are supposed to be commented out like this:

/*
File: custom.css
Description: Custom styles for Thesis
More Info: https://diythemes.com/thesis/rtfm/custom-css/
*/

Yours is missing the first slash. Try adding a “/” at the very beginning and see if that fixes the issue

I think I’m going to add this in as a configurable option to the plugin sometime in the next week or so. But if you’re not afraid to get your hands dirty with some CSS, I think this will accomplish what you want in your particular theme:

– Open your theme’s stylesheet (yours looks like its called layout.css) under Appearance > Editor.
– Scroll to the very bottom and add these lines:

#sidebars ul#pretty-pinterest-pins-widget li.pretty-pinterest-pin div.pretty-pinterest-image{
margin: auto;
}

#sidebars ul#pretty-pinterest-pins-widget li.pretty-pinterest-pin, #sidebars ul#pretty-pinterest-pins-widget li.pretty-pinterest-follow-me{
text-align: center;
}

– The second block centers the “follow me button”, so don’t have to add that part if you only want the pin image centered

Let me know if you have any trouble with it and I can take a look again

Try adding this to your stylesheet (style.css):

#pretty-pinterest-pins-widget li{
float: left;
padding-right: 15px;
}

I haven’t built this in yet. Try adding this to your wordpress stylesheet (style.css):

#pretty-pinterest-pins-widget li{
float: left;
padding-right: 10px;
}

You can adjust the padding to suit your design. Let me know if this works for you. If you have a link, I can take a look at your page.

If you post a link to your website, I can take a look. Even if you aren’t using the plugin live at the moment, I can see if anything stands out with your CSS that could cause the problem

Are you typing your Pinterest username in correctly?

For example, my pinterest page is located at:

https://pinterest.com/jowilki/

So my username is jowilki. Can you send me the url where you are directed when you click on the follow me button?

I just released a new version that should fix your issue. Let me know if you have any other problems with it. ??

Thanks for posting!
Jodi
