@juliedc,

I’m not aware of any changes with 4.1.1 that might have effected Simply-Exclude. But let me do some benchmark testing in the morning and I’ll report back.

@traceybuckalew,

I’m the author of the Simply=-Exclude plugin and from what you have described the plugin doe snot handle specific field exclusions. The Simply-Exclude plugin is designed to only effect the main page loop. So for example you can exclude a certain post category from showing on the home blog listing. Or similar for an RSS feed or Search.

There is nothing within the plugin to support some field on a members profile.

Good luck.

@cyberpk,

Generally I want the se_filters hook to execute last. This is the reason for the 999 option. What I can do is setup a define you can add to your theme functions.php or wp-config.php which will override that 999 value. Something like

define(‘SE_FILTERS_PRIORITY’, 1);

I’ll include this in the next release.

@huskypup,

Yes, That is my thought. Will look at adding similar logic into the next release. Thanks.

@huskypup,

I agree the plugin probably needs to handle some ‘items not found logic’. My guess it you are using the shortcode meths, correct? In that case there it not a way within the shortcode to handle the case.

@yorkshirelad,

Hmm. This might be an issue with some of the legacy code within Media-Tags. Remember Media-Tags was written back in the dark days before WordPress supported custom post_types and taxonomies. So lots of the query handling was done within the plugin. I’ll check and post back.

Yes

@_alfonso_,

The only way to get this done is to not use the shortcodes and write your own WP_Query instance. This will provide maximum control over the query and output. but does require some technical skills.

@anjx,

That custom functionality is beyond the scope of the Media-Tags plugin. You should be able to look into some of the core WordPress filters and hook into those when a term in inserted.

@cbjk,

No you are not missing anything. When you click on the number value in that ‘media used’ column it should redirect you to the main Media > Library page but filter the listing so it shows only those attachment/media items tagged with that selected term.

@jsrobinson,

Thanks for posting. I would satay away from the beta I posted in this forum. There will be a new beta soon.

I’m not really sure how you are trying to use the Media-Tags plugin. Realize that Media-Tags simply registers a custom taxonomy (media-tags) and associates it with the ‘attachment’ post_type. That being said you don’t need to use the built-in query from Media-Tags. You can write your own WP_Query to access the taxonomy items. Then do whatever sorting, filtering you need

I don’t think I actually answered your original question. Sorry. Let me know if I can help.

@oazar,
The current released version of Media-Tags will work just fine on the latest version of WordPress.

As they say use the beta at your own risk.

@wstringer2,

Apologies for not replying sooner. For some reason I’m not longer receiving emails from wp.org on forum threads. On to your issue…

At what point are you using the $args in a query? It is quite possible there is some conflict between Simply-Exclude and your custom query args. I’ll double check the coding to ensure values like the ‘post__not_in’ arg element is merged and not replaced.

@lobius,

What did I miss?

Not really sure. I just tested this on my own development sites and works correctly. I can exclude a single category from the front listing.

Sometimes the issue is related to the way the theme is developed. Are you using a theme I can download and test with? What other plugins are you running? Many times other plugins also try and interject logic into the WP_Query object and things just don’t work.

@paulnivy,

As they say it depends. Not knowing how the course modules are setup it may or may not be excludable via the Simply Exclude plugin.
