Hi there,
I found that when the SQL GZ file of the Database in wordpress.com is generated by Updraftplus, it will contain the following version-specific comments at the begin of the SQL file:

/*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=@@CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT */;
/*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=@@CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS */;
/*!40101 SET @OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION=@@COLLATION_CONNECTION */;
/*!40101 SET @OLD_SQL_MODE=@@SQL_MODE, SQL_MODE=’NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO’ */;
/*!40101 SET NAMES latin1 */;
/*!40101 SET foreign_key_checks = 0 */;

I overview them because I though they were just comments, but removing this comments allowed me to import the database correctly, and all characters display correctly.

In case it helps: as far I tested, the first 3 seem to be generated because of the Database setup in wordpress.com, with other plugins I didn’t got any @OLD_SQL_MODE or foreign_key_checks comments but SET NAMES utf8 */;

Thank you @vupdraft
I tried it, but I get the same result… :/

It does not matter what collation I choose for the operations before restoring / or manually importing the database. The imported tables get always the same collation:

ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 COLLATE=latin1_swedish_ci;

But the characters get replaced for wrong ones, like in this table:
https://www.utf8-zeichentabelle.de/unicode-utf8-table.pl?start=128&number=128&names=-&utf8=char

Thank you Kevin,

Unfortunately I am not a developer, so I won’t play with the GFCommon::replace_variables() because I have no idea what it really does.

But I can tell you I switched to another plugin (Easy WP SMTP), and this other plugin does NOT add the extra <br> before AND after each individual text line when sending the Gravity Forms notifications…

Hope it helps!

Hi there!
First thank you for this awesome Plugin, it really is a great help to avoid emails coming in spam folder.

I must confirm what @webdevels mentions,
– original Notifications generated by Gravity Forms, with just the content {all_fields} in the “Message” field do not have this problem
– Notifications generated with this plugin on the top will add <br> before AND after each individual text line in each row.

I tested it in a fresh new website with basically just gravity forms and this plugin, also activating and deactivating this plugin.

Hope this helps!

Thanks Eric! Let me know in case you fix it, I will be glad to test it.

FYI, since it seems not to work and I have no answer, I just disabled the plugin, but I would be happy to test again if it works.

Thanks Thomas for the excellent and fast support!
I updated the plugin to 6.2.2 and I see no issues in any browser.
All the best,

Hi There, we are having similar issues.

I observed some issues in versions 6.2.0 and 6.2.1, where the selected fixed widget element covers partially the content (6.2.0) or goes very close to it ignoring the sidebar padding or margins (6.2.1).

AFAIK we are not aware of such changes since version 6.0 (and I was not aware that the plugin got rewritten, if there was some notification from the plugin in the dashboard I missed it).

This happens in last versions of Safari and DuckDuckGo. I did not observer this behavior in Chrome or Firefox. Always deleting cache in server and using private browsing.

After activating and DEACTIVATING the “Improved version” (Appearance > Fixed Widget) the issue seems to have disappeared.

We will keep a close eye to it.

Hope it helps!

Hi Jordi,

As far I understand, you can take as reference the old template hierarchy,

https://developer.www.ads-software.com/themes/block-themes/

Consider the new block themes use html files instead of php files, you find here the corresponding changes:

https://developer.www.ads-software.com/themes/block-themes/#differences-and-similarities-between-classic-themes-and-block-themes

Please let me know if you manage to get your custom post type; I was researching for a Portfolio post type and I see there is still not much for Twenty Twenty-Two.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks for the fast answer and great support! Now I know where the debug log is and I could take a look, thanks. Very useful you included it on the SMTP Settings interface.

Everything looks good and emails are efficiently sent; it helps me to move on with the implementation.

Do you still need the environment details?

BEST regards,

Sorry, I see It is corrected on the LAST version 3.1.28 –?but still ist not possible to leave it empty in case I do not need the title (as I think it was before 3.1.25 or so) and avoid having a “duplicated” title on the page.

I can confirm I needed to disable also SG Optimizer to update functions.php from the Theme Editor in the dashboard. I also tried to manage it from Siteground Tools, but it did not solve it. Not very practical.

@hristo-sg Would be good to indicate this in SG Optimizer documentation and/or let know exactly what setting/feature of the SG Optimizer causes this.

As far as I could find out, I think this behavior is originated by WPML because there the “Post Types Translation” for media was set as translatable. The number of files created matches the languages active on this site.

It seems the function to regenerate the missing thumbnails for PDFs of this plugin is not compatible with WPML.

Thanks, Obviously I need a add_action but I am not sure what to use, i.e.

function remove_empty_excerpt() {
	if ( is_singular( 'portfolio' ) ) {
		remove_filter( 'get_the_excerpt', 'wp_trim_excerpt' );
	}
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'remove_empty_excerpt' );

This works definitively on my portfolio pages removing empty excerpts, but it will remove any content on any other post type.I need to ad an exception with an “else” for any other post type, right?

Thank you Joy,
As I said in my first message I am using this on functions.php file of my child theme, for example as:

function remove_empty_excerpt() {
	if ( is_singular( 'portfolio' ) ) {
		remove_filter( 'get_the_excerpt', 'wp_trim_excerpt' );
	}
}

When I use there the following function:

add_action('wp_footer', 'your_function');
function your_function() {
	$post_type = get_post_type( $post->ID );
	echo $post_type;
}

I get the string “portfolio”, that is correct.

Am I missing a “add_action” on the first one? What should be the first argument?

Thanks in advance,
