RockyMtnHi

Great question. I should have included this in the original post. Contact Form 7 kicks off this (orange) error and the email is never sent.

An example URL is Franchise Request.

Thanks again. I’ll mark it as resolved.

THANK YOU! I was convinced that it was the same format because all I did was add keywords. The problem was that when I just double clicked the csv file, it opened in Excel. EXCEL CHANGED THE FORMAT. When I re-exported and opened the csv file in a text editor, then added my keywords and re-imported IT WORKED.

This problem is fixed, so thanks again.

Last question: Now that keywords are added to the posts, does that mean other pages will link to them using those keywords?

I can write that for you as a custom database application that is invoked by placing a shortcode like [geolocate] where you want the list of resellers within the specified distance to show up. The distance can default to something like 100 miles from the website visitors location. Optionally you can allow them to add a city or zip code. It will require a MySQL database that your hosting company can provide. I’ll also provide a dashboard where you can manage resellers and their services offered info.

I do similar work for my companies and clients. If you want to talk about it then download this checklist https://21stsoft.com/software-development-database-design-company/ and I’ll respond with a call.

At least they (back-door) owned up to it. “Code is Poetry” is no longer in the footer of the WordPress pages when you login to your WordPress website.

Looks like the WordPress powers that be killed WordPress. I’m looking for a different platform now, and I believed in it so much I authored the book WORDPRESS WEBSITES FOR BUSINESS https://wildbluepress.com/wordpress-websites-business-michael-cordova/. I’ve had to hire new people to manage the mess, the vendors I work with that manage many of my sites are over taxed dealing with it, and the professional theme companies I work with are overloaded with fixing their problems associated with it. In my estimation the cost of working with WordPress has easily tripled after Gutenberg.

I am really pissed off about it because I do this for clients. I don’t have egg on my face, I’m buried six feet under. Literally. I hope I can survive.

This is the worst decision I have ever seen by a software company. WordPress needs to address this in the short-term, or they’ll no longer have a company. They need a clear path to a real solution or everyone will bail. I certainly can no longer recommend them as the commercial-quality solution I have recommended for many years.

What an embarrassment. Nobody is owning up to this. Was there a lot of money involved? Why else would they do this?

The beginning of the end.?!

They were set to Post name, but I changed it to Plain before you checked it. Neither worked.

I have never seen this before, and I’ve been using the free and pro version for years. (Thanks)

To clarify, the checkbox showed up correctly the first time, but now it only shows the shortcode.

I’m using Divi also. Chris, can you at least respond to this. It is critical to our application.

It would be much appreciated.

Any ideas here? A little help would be greatly appreciated.

@ipstenu I appreciate your response, the stories behind it all and the ramifications of different logins. Guess a decision was made many moons ago to just live with the Tiny MCE ‘quirk’. I still don’t agree with that as being acceptable, but I do see your point of using shortcodes.

I have created some shortcodes already, and will continue to use them. Looks like this is the preferred way, so I’ll use this solution going forward.

Thanks again.

All the best

Thanks for moving it @ipstenu, and @t-p yes, I am using the text tab.

After all these years I am really stunned that WordPress doesn’t support php coding out of the box. Joomla and Drupal accommodate it, but not WordPress. To use php code in widgets I had to use a plugin or code a hack in the functions.php. At one point the plugin that I used for the widgets failed and was no longer supported, so I am now using the functions.php option.

The same problem exists in the main body content. I have to use a plugin to execute php code within the main content.

It would be ideal if the WordPress developers would just allow us to execute php code in the main content and widgets by using the normal php delineators:
<?php code here; ?>

I hate to think what would happen if the plugin I’m currently using to execute code in the main content area (Inline PHP) falls to the wayside. It hasn’t been updated for many years and I rely on it heavily. I would normally not use a plugin that old, but I have been using it for years and it is still working.

The problem now is that if you so much as view the code in the main content area, and now the text widget, in the Visual tab then it changes the code and you have to go back to the text tab and change it. Then, after you save it in the text tab, the code that you see is the wrong code, even though it has saved the correct code. If you just save again it is broken.

I don’t understand the logic of changing any code, period, by changing from Text to Visual tabs. It just doesn’t make sense to me. I consider it a bug that hasn’t been fixed, and it has been that way forever with WordPress. As much as I love WordPress (I’m writing a book WordPress Websites for Business), this is a frustrating scenario, and it just got worse with the new text widget.

That’s why I posted originally in the other forum. I want to flag this as a bug.

Hope it is fixed sometime soon. Till then, my employees are pulling their hair out because they aren’t developers, so I have to go in and fix these issues myself.

So, do you think it is a javascript issue, or spacing which tells me maybe CSS? Gotta figure it out.

I don’t understand why the width is conlicting, but I am stuck on how to troubleshoot this.

Can you give me some more insight?

Thanks

I changed the height to 450, 300 and 352 and they all have the same bouncing buttons. I also swapped from the Base to the Classic slider theme and same result.

What else do you think I can try?
