In reply to: Exclude specific category from specific author archiveAh thank you mores – so the string ran as normal with the added exclusion. Perfect.

In reply to: Is there any way to set a default featured image by author?I’ll +1 this. I’d also like the default featured image to act as the featured image for the author’s archive page if possible.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Exclude specific category from specific author archiveSo I think I finally figured it out. Can anyone explain why for future reference? The code I used was…
<?php query_posts($query_string . 'cat=-92'); while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
instead of my original attempt…
<?php query_posts('cat=-92'); while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
Yes thanks PE-Pernet. I tried to just over-write thinking I would lose settings if I deleted and re-installed. That failed so I tried deleting the folder via FTP but it was only partially successful first time for some reason and resulted in the whole site going down. Then I went back in and managed to delete what was left which disabled the plug-in and from that point reinstalled and all my settings were saved. I guess they’re saved elsewhere (in the database maybe).
Always difficult when you’re basically guessing at what you’re doing!
Oh I’m so happy I found this thread. Same issue here. wasn’t sure how to go back to the earlier version but muddled through somehow ??
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Get Post] theme shortcodes stop working with get-post pluginSame problem here too. It is specific to the page the get-post plug-in short code is on. All other pages work fine with other short codes.
Hi Barry / Tim – that’s it – it isn’t really a pop-up – it’s actually rendered as a div or iframe over the top of content on the page I think. Thanks both for keeping this active. I think the like with comments is reasonably standard now though – adding content to timelines is so much more powerful than the relatively insignificant like click.
Hi Tim, thank you. Facebook Official buttons do allow a Facebook pop up for the ‘liker’ to add their own comment to their own timeline in addition to liking with a counter on the website. The other unofficial buttons you mention don’t include a counter (I don’t think). I use an alternative Social Sharing plug in for now which works fine with comments / like counter and @twitter functionality but I’d just like to reduce the volume of plug-ins. I also have a non-wordpress website coded myself which works the same way.
Hi Barry, thank you. Yes I’m using the official button – which I know is working with other plug-ins. I like the JetPack package though so would be great to get it working – I use it for most other bits and pieces. Thank you for your help.
Hi – I have the same problem. G+ works as expected but no Facebook comments box pop up when Like clicked. Also no via @twittername at the end of Tweet shares. Are these bugs or just not supported features? Thanks.
Thank you remix4 I’m away for a few days next week but will take a look as you suggest. The fact that it’s only IE isn’t that much of a shock but nailing down the cause will be a problem I think.
