Well DUH!! That fixed it. Thanks.

Can you recommend a “best” way to put a post excerpt on a page? I’d rather not use the WordPress built in excerpt because I have read this strips all formatting/html from the excerpt and I want this to remain intact.

I’m not a coder but I’ve been looking at a plugin called Posts for Page that requires you to build your own short code based on options you want to show in the excerpt on the target page and then paste that into the page where you want the excerpt to show.

I probably can manage that but something even simpler would be better if available.

For some reason I am never able to show a link in any of my support requests. I add the link, but it does not show in the post so I will try to enclose it as code.

and this is what I want the url to be

Thanks for the detailed answer. Your response should be used as an example of how to answer support questions. Many support groups could take lessons from your example.

Thanks for your comment.

Tried the edit page in Opera. Same problem in Chrome and Opera.

Tried the JS trouble shooting errors, but I don’t know how to interpret the results or even if the results show an error.

The text is the error, if this is an error, is:
Consider using ‘dppx’ units, as in CSS ‘dpi’ means dots-per-CSS-inch, not dots-per-physical-inch, so does not correspond to the actual ‘dpi’ of a screen. In media query expression: print, not all, (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 1.25), (min-resolution: 120dpi)

It does not look anything like what an error looks like in this example.

The page is here.

If there is a problem that was introduced by a plugin, the site is new enough that I can delete the entire site and start over. It would be nice to know what happened so it can be avoided in the future. The error is one that started, perhaps after adding a plugin because this did not start until well after the page was created and published several days ago.

Whatever the problem, it affects all pages.

You are clearly more informed than me, but I am not using the Artisteer theme for that page. If you looked at other pages you would see the Artisteer theme not a blank page.

Problem resolved. Thank you very much for correcting this for me.

Raymond

Oops. Sorry about that. Try this page.

Thank you for the tutorial. This will make using the plugin and understanding how to use it much less time consuming.

Hi Tobias. First thanks for creating this plugin. Once I learn how to use it, the plugin will be a big help.

The page giving me the problem is reference test.

This is a minimal theme created using Artisteer.

Thanks. I got it working yesterday.

Having the same problem. My table won’t center. I added this code to the Plugin Options.

.tablepress-id-9 {
	width: auto;
	margin: 0 auto 1em;
}

.tablepress-id-9,
.tablepress-id-9 tr,
.tablepress-id-9 tbody td,
.tablepress-id-9 thead th,
.tablepress-id-9 tfoot th {
	border: none;
}

But the table remains left aligned.

I really appreciate the time and effort you put in to helping others make this plugin work. There are several points I hope you can clarify.

I made the changes in the S3-video.php file from github. The line numbers were different (off by a few lines in my copy).

In the plugin settings, I’m not at all sure what the “Video Bucket” entry should look like. My bucket is named lonestarlostandfound but should the name in that field be exactly like I see it in my S3 bucket list, which is /lonestarlostandfound/ or lonestarlostandfound without the slashes?

Secondly, the plugin says I can’t proceed with setup because I don’t have a playlist. Why do I need a playlist? Doesn’t that imply that my videos will come from those stored on my server rather than from my S3 account?

It’s a shame that such a potentially useful plugin seems to be more or less abandoned by the developer.

Looking forward to seeing a reply from you as you seem to know as much about the plugin as the author.

@locostmarketing Wouldn’t this post be more meaningful and helpful if you had described how you resolved your problem? Others may be having the same problem and your solution could save them time and aggravation.

Thanks Michael. We are posting at the same time.

I almost got it to work using this short code
[cfdb-table form="Contact form 1" show="fname"]

It posted the name, but the formatting is terrible. It looks like it posted a one column, two row table into the text with fname in row 1 and the actual name in row two when I was expecting nothing more than the name formatted in the text font and size of the rest of the text.
