Same problem. Template 2 & 3 are okay using Lightbox but Template 1 causes it to double the number of photos in the gallery and show each one twice.

Also, how do you determine the number of columns in Template 3. I have 6 images and only two columns – tow images are landscape and 4 are portrait. Maybe this is the only way it can show them in this particular gallery?

I’ve just tried this but it only shows the first image in the collection and it isn’t clickable so not sure what’s going on! Is it working for you?

But Walter in the description you say this:

When a featured image hasn’t explicitly been set you have the option to use an image that was uploaded with the post/page. If that fails the plugin can use a random image.

That contradicts what you are saying now ie that you have to explicitly set a featured image!

Please clarify. I am using a theme which uploads images that are used as thumbnails but not set as the featured image. I want these to appear in my featured images widget but it seems you are saying this is not possible wuithout actually making them featured.

Forgive me for saying but we are all learning here. I am well able to edit templates and themes but I am not an expert by any means. I expect there was a time when you were learning too and needed help. Perhaps you could help us out.

What do you mean by the first example? They don’t look complete to me.

if (function_exists('the_icon')) { the_icon('size=small'); } ?>

the_icon($args, $term_type = 'category',$id = null, $use_term_id = null):

Is that : correct – I thought that was a replacement for curly braces? In terms of being complete code snippets, the first one seems to be missing <?php at the beginning.

Anyway, like I say we’re learning.

I have the plugin working and it is working with my taxonomies I just can’t get it to display.

My code snippet is:

<?php
if($parent){
$parents = '<a href="' . get_term_link( $parent, $taxonomies[0] ) . '" title="' . esc_attr( $parent->name ) . '">' . $parent->name . '</a>';

I want the icon to display before the parent name. Your help would be very much appreciated.

Fix 2 in this thread worked for me.

Thanks tieske1988 – this solved my problem!

I find it odd that the author hasn’t yet responded in this thread yet is active in others.

I had the same problem using an older version of the plugin and the feed stopped updating on June 11th. I updated the plugin and went through the process of creating a twitter application, generating the various keys and authorising the account.

Make sure when creating the account to enter a callback url – your site homepage will do or you will find you can’t authorise the account and you will be stuck on the settings page scratching your head! I couldn’t see how to edit the app I’d made in twitter to amend the callback url so deleted it and started over.

If you are updating an older version like me then you will need to go to the widget and enter the username and list details. Ignore the message that the account needs to be authorised as once you save the widget this will disappear. Hope this helps somebody – mine is currently showing the recent tweets. Of course I don’t yet know if it will update long term but hope it’s now fixed!

You’re very welcome…thanks for the feedback.

Slight amendment to this…in the promo_slider.js file change the two instances of ‘fast’ to 1000 or whatever figure you want. No quotes… and it works perfectly. I’ve replaced so many sliders in various themes with this but only just discovered this!

Perhaps this could be added to the configuration screen??

Ignore – I solved the problem. I upgraded my theme to use jquery v 1.8.3 and all fine. The later version broke the theme.

Sorry – bit of a novice – how do I do that…

I did search but don’t think this is the problem. Site here:

I noticed this too. It’s because there is a timer in showtime.js which updates the widget every 30 secs.

//Set a timer to update the widget every 30 seconds
setTimeout (get_current_show, (30 * 1000));

Remove or comment out and should be fine.

Bit hasty with the reply – there was more to do!

If you can’t enable short tags in your php.ini (I couldn’t) then you need to edit the plugin file showtime.php to swap all instances of <?= to <?php echo

I had this too. Change the final <? (line 538 – 17 rows from bottom) to <?php

It’s likely to do with php shortcodes not being switched on in your php.ini file. That did the trick for me.
