Sorry to hear that you’re having problems.

All that you should need to do is paste the repo URL into the post/page edit and the plugin should handle the rest. The plugin is working as expected for me. Perhaps if you can you provide some more details about what you’re trying to embed/how you’re trying to do it someone can offer some suggestions on what may be going wrong.

We can’t offer support for finding original strings or the settings you need to enter to translate a specific piece of text in a plugin or theme you’re using.

The most likely cause is that either you’ve not entered the correct original string/context/domain, or that those strings aren’t translatable.

You’ll need to find the original string in the plugin or theme code. You can check the FAQ (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/say-what/faq/) or this article (https://plugins.leewillis.co.uk/doc_post/replacing-wordpress-strings-context/) for some examples of what you’re looking for.

Alternatively, the Pro version of the plugin provides a String Discovery mode which means you can search for strings on your site via autocomplete suggestions.

The same principle applies. You need to locate the string in the main WordPress code (as per the linked articles), or use the String Discovery of the Pro plugin to autocomplete the information you need.

Thanks for reporting this. Please can you try with v2.1.1 which should be available now.

What errors are logged in your server error logs?

Sorry to hear that you’re having problems, but I’m finding it difficult to reproduce any issues. In all of my tests, everything works as expected. I’ve just run a fresh install of WordPress, installed and activated this plugin from www.ads-software.com and pasting a GitHub URL into a page embeds it as expected:

If you’re having problems, we’re happy to investigate, but we need to understand how to reproduce the issue.

My guess is that something is preventing the site from connecting to itself, either a DNS issue, network issue or security plugin, but it’s difficult to say for sure.

I’m looking to remove text and or replace it in all pages / just admin content / just front end content, case sensitive and insensitive.

Our plugin doesn’t offer the ability to control whether the string is replaced optionally between front/admin views. It will be replaced wherever it is used.

I would also like to include removing links if possible.

That’s not a specific feature of our plugin.

Will your tool also replace source code html output seen in a browser source code

No (unless the plugin/theme author has specifically made the markup translatable – but I doubt that will be the case).

Hi;

Say What? doesn’t have any restrictions that stop you putting markup in the replaced string.

However … it also has no control over what happens with that string. In many cases, strings aren’t output as-is, but are escaped by plugins/themes for security reasons. I suspect that’s what you’re seeing here. In that case, you obviously can’t enter markup without it being escaped before being used.

That’s not to say that you couldn’t use markup in other situations though.

Hope that explains!
