yep.. Sorry.. this is all new to me. but I am a learning being and you have been very helpful. I did not even realize that this initially.
I will do better in the future, and if our paths meet, I hope I can live up to your expectations.
thanks again

To finalize for anyone having this problem. it appears that there are at least two plugins that copy this db.php file to the wp-content directory. DB Cache is an outdated plugin.
@kobashicomputing.. thanks again.

thank you for replying to my rant.
To make things short, I am really looking to find out if this is a WordPress core file. I think it odd that any plugin would put a file in wp-content root. IF it is not a core file then I will just delete it.
I will search wordpress to see if I can find a file structure.

I had already deactivated all the plugins and reactivated them. I had to rename the db.php. IF W3 is the plugin that uses this plugin then it is not part of a wordpress installation? I find it odd that This one lives in the root of wp-content. Should it not live in the W3 plugin directory? There is another plugin, dbcache that I installed that may also use this file.
I am on the latest wordpress.

What plugin? from what I can see it is W3 Total Cache that caused it. What is db.php anyway?

yes, thank you I will eventually learn CSS. right now, I just like to cheat.
there are 4 columns of pics in a row, but there is a big open space to the right on the page. Now, I could figure what the thumbnails would need to be to divide up the space so that 4 fit evenly on a 940 width page, or I could learn CSS. I just thought that while I was learning, I could maybe get a quick answer.
thanks for your help. I know it is not your problem here.

I will eventually figure this out but the quick answer is to ask.
If I wanted to CENTER the row.. rather than have it be left, what would I do? In the catablog.css…
.catablog-gallery.catablog-row {
float: center !important;
}
or
.catablog-gallery.catablog-row {
padding: 50px !important;
}

trial and error should I not hear from you.. thanks

Thank you for a much needed, easy to use plugin. I would Really like to see one for Video just like this. I currently use JWPlayer, but displaying them in a catalog style is difficult and I am struggling with the implementation. I did find one that that uses the shadowbox.js. Cool-Video-Gallery.

@akiraxx
Actually the documentation and things that are lacking in this “freebie” version made me make the leap to the PRO version. Check it out. it is much easier and useful. worth it.

@akiraxx
no this is to get the gridview.php to show up in the list of templates on the right, so you can choose it as the type of page.

put this in your gridview.php
<?php
/*
Template Name: Your template name
*/
?>

then
Add this to the page [events-calendar-page]

I would suggest you try the PRO version, not cheap, but much improved.
you can find it at Code Canyon.

I also found a lot of useful information on the PRO site.
Hope this helps

@praveen
Perhaps what I am asking for is that there be somewhere to put shortcut codes? For us uninitiated into the world of actual coding?

@praveen
thanks for answering..
In the JW Player plugin for WordPress there are many options. Under Advanced Settings and Rendering there is a line that says Bufferlength. this is how the post looks when I add it manually.

[jwplayer config=”Home Page” mediaid=”148″ Bufferlength=8 Duration=”2:13″]
Does that answer your question?

HI there, I like the plugin a lot. I need to create a buffer of 8 seconds or so, so the video may load before playing. I can do this in the normal JW Player for WordPress, but I am unfamiliar with how to do this with your great plugin. I am not a programmer and can only modify some code and follow instructions. thanks for your help and thanks for the plugin.
