just noticed that since updating it can’t see my image. which is here https://fairydoula.co.uk/wp-content/images/fairydoula-logo.png – and worked this morning? odd

Ok just updated, wasn’t sure if there was anything else I should do but – I still seem to be generating the same warnings – – oh and btw these warnings appear when I check the root url in the linter as well –
Even so, despite the warnings, the root url and as far as I can tell all the other urls display exactly as they should (up to date, image and correct title etc) on facebook since adding this plugin… its just the blog home that gets upset. think it gets confused as blog ‘home’ is not Home – my front page is Home ..

I do wonder whether this is possibly a conflict with the All-In-One SEO pack plugin I’m using…

oh thank you for your quick reply, it’s appreciated – I only downloaded it a couple of days ago hang on – ah just checked and I am using 2.0.2 will try updating – url is https://fairydoula.co.uk and blog is https://www.fairydoula.co.uk/blog – thanks again ??

The shortcodes in your Mail ‘From’ field should look like this, then it should work

hehehe ?? bet you spent ages figuring that out

Just came back to say – I bit the bullet and tried out your plugin (after reading a post somewhere where you explained that the ‘works up to wordpress 3.2’ bit can’t be updated til you update the whole plugin – and can confirm that it works beautifully in wordpress 3.3 and it does far more than it says on the tin – what a great plugin and thanks so much ??

what I’m hoping for is something like[catlist name=generalgategory excludecategories=45,50] – but my local installation is so painfully slow trial and error isn’t really my favourite method!

please? my orphaned categories really need some parents! but I can’t display the parent categories and have the meddling kids popping up!

ok I”ve figured it out – it displays sub categories by default – now I kinda need the opposite! Will make new post

Ok thank you both for all of your help and pointers – in order to split the options I decided to do shipping by weight and zone, charging only enough to cover the cost of sending a card to various zones – and factored the price of the extra P&P into the cost of the prints. Then I created 3 zones, putting UK in 1, Republic of Ireland and the european countries I recognised in 2 and the rest in 3 – simples! I knew I just needed to leave it for a couple of days and come back to it ?? Was glad to get eshop working as was by far my fave out of the similar plugins I looked at, integrates very nicely and works a treat. Would be very, very nice though if maybe in the future there could be a way to split options based on price rather than weight, I can see from posts here and there that it isn’t possible at present … otherwise love this plugin, nice work.

I admit I’m a bit guilty of that here – my defense is that having spent hours staring at a screen when people suggest things every now and then you feel like asking ‘what if’ – and usually I am trying these things at the same time ?? still haven’t quite figured out this one will get back on it

just trying out some other types of shops… I wish ebay did one! ??

erk I have just tried it out and weights and unexplained zones appear in the shipping rates box – this really does seem a confusing way to do what I’m trying to do – send an A5 card for less than an A3 print. I suppose the only solution would be to create separate departments for cards and prints but that would be hugely timeconsuming and would effectively mean I would duplicate my content. But this calculating shipping by weight seems like a slightly inelegant solution to what is probably a common problem. it would be really nice to say A5 cards are this much and A3 prints are that much. I don’t think I’ve ever particularly wanted to know the weight of a greeting card or print I’ve bought, or to have to calculate the cost of my shipping by weight of several purchases rather than quantity. In fact i’m not even sure that would work… (if i buy two cards that weigh 30g each and i’ve set one price for 30g, and one for 60g would the shipping calculate them at the 60g set price? or come in as 2x the the 30g weight price?
Also really quite stumped about the country zones – it seems you have to be pretty good at geography to even make a start mailing worldwide …and also the customers will have to hazard a guess at what zone they are in in order to make an informed choice from the shipping rates page.
think it’ll have to wait til tomorrow my eyes are crossing and I’m prob not making much sense – thanks so much for all your help ?? x

Ok thank you again Esmi, my friend is going to check the weights of her two products for p&p tomorrow. Just to clarify, will the customer see the weights as well or just the modes and prices? as we are only putting up two types for now, one card size and one print size. So ideally would like to use the different weight options to allow for people ordering several cards together if possible rather than them thinking they have a choice of different weight cards
