No problem, I thought that might be the case. Thanks.
I also have this problem, shame as responsive videos would be very useful.
Edit:
The shortcode worked for me so it’s not to bad. ??Forum: Hacks
In reply to: Seamless Looping Background Audio?Thanks for the recommendation however these plugins pause before looping. For example, I need to play a 10sec audio clip to play for hours without noticing any intervals.

In reply to: [bbp style pack] Font color does not changeI’m also facing the same issue, the BG & font colours won’t change. As the OP didn’t post any links here’s an example of my forum with the same issue. https://dsgnstorm.com/forums/
Note: I’m trying to make the BG’s #111111 and font #ffffffThis is an excellent plugin in principle though, lots of cool features and I’ll definitely be donating once I have some funds.

In reply to: How do I secure passwords for user registrations?Ok thanks, the topic I linked to was just an old post written by another user. I’m going to contact the dev and find out if it’s possible to allow logins with an auto generated password that they can change once logged in.

In reply to: [Enhanced Media Library] Nice plugin, close to useless without batch editThis plugin does not have a batch option? I have 100’s of images I would like to separate into folders.
Whoops sorry I think I re-enabled those after I was having the issues. The plugins etc should all not be removed. I will wait 24hr to see if any data is picked up but none so far. Thanks for taking a look.

In reply to: [Seamless Schema] How to useI agree please provide some info on how the plugin works. Does it find schema data for every page, how does it do this? This sounds like a great plugin that could become very popular as the other Schema plugins are terrible. Some technical documentation would be great for users.

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Extorniate Extension Costs! $129 to add pre-order for example…I’m not reviewing any particular extension, rather I’m reviewing the entire marketplace which is therefore relevant to the free plugin (in my opinion). The plugin is OK but it lacks the eCommerce features I needed, if I were to say it lacks feature [A] then I’m sure you would have pointed me to the extensions marketplace. If I were to ignore the marketplace I would still have to rate it lower as I would have to go by the basis that feature [A] is missing.
Also websites are typically free to access, does that mean if I review a website I should ignore the product prices?
If I’m spanking WOO then it’s because I think they are spanking their users.

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Extorniate Extension Costs! $129 to add pre-order for example…“My argument is NOT that I think WooCommerce and all of the extensions should be free. “
This means that I never said I expect it to be free, again I have no idea why you also assume I’m asking for anything for free. There is a difference between (free > fair pricing > overpriced) and my argument is for the mid point.
Also just because a business model works that does not mean it’s whats best for the users, my review is from a user perspective and I’m not critiquing their business. I could provide several dozen examples of successful business models that screw their user base over. Like I said there are many complaints far more critical than my review so obviously it doesn’t work for all of their customers. I’m merely letting new users know what to expect.
Fun fact: The first 3 extensions on Woo’s extension page will set you back $450 for the first year.

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Extorniate Extension Costs! $129 to add pre-order for example…My argument is not that I think WooCommerce and all of the extensions should be free. Even so I do know of many plugins that do offer high levels of functionality without any additional charges. My argument is that the extensions are overpriced, yes this is subjective yet my opinion is also informed by my use of 100’s of other plugins on WordPress and elsewhere.
I have invested in many premium themes and plugins over the last few years so it’s wrong to assume I want everything for free. In comparison the most expensive premium plugins/themes on Envato are $64. Let’s ignore the $100 – $200+ extensions and compare those prices to the standard $79 Woo extensions. Now am I supposed to believe that those extensions are somehow more comprehensive then the extensions found elsewhere? Let’s not also forget that the licenses are also only valid for a year and require further renewal for support etc.
The problem is I suspect many users will download WooCommerce thinking it’s free. Then one day they need to add a particular function only to find out WooCommerce want $$$+ the renewal costs for each added extension.
In my opinion this is like WooCommerce giving away free cars. It’s sounds great to users only until they realize parts of the engine have been left out and to make the car function as they would expect they will need to start up multiple costly subscriptions with Woo. Like I said the free plugin is great, IF you are certain it has all the features you need out of the box. Otherwise I urge new users to check out the extensions page and decide for themselves.
Also for the record I’m aware that I’m not the only one who thinks the extensions are way to overpriced, there are many articles criticizing Woo and their prices.

In reply to: [Plugin: BWPS] – SQL Migration ProblemOk just to update, I deleted the above code from the SQL file and re uploaded a new SQL version. This worked in terms of adding the subsequent tables into the database. The dashboard and some specific pages are still returning “Error 500 – Internal server error” messages though.
I will just start my website from scratch.
My site is still down, I have tried renaming the .htacess and also removing the better wp security code from the config.php. I still have no access to the site/dashboard. :/

In reply to: Deactivation "Better WordPress Security" > Server ErrorThanks, I was not aware that it would have its own forum at www.ads-software.com. I will search there.
