I don’t know what changed from yesterday to today, but my Custom Style is working OK today. The colors are correct, the cell borders are appearing again, and the rounded corners are back.

Life is good… ??

Message sent via the contact form. I’ll give 5.2.10 Beta a try and test it on my site.

I continue to be amazed at the level of tech support you provide, Peter.

Have you had time to investigate this any further?

I have contacted Kadence Themes to see how I can override the theme’s default loading message.

Kim, you and Peter provide some of the BEST tech support I have ever experienced. Thank you so much! This new code works perfectly.

I also heard from Kadence about the 100% table width default. They sent me a couple of lines of CSS that fixed that problem, too. So…this one is SOLVED!

UPDATE:

I have contacted Kadence Themes about the table width 100% default problem. We’ll see what they have to say.

Thanks again, Kim. This code did the trick…almost. If we can make this work, I will be using the wpdataaccess pub_id=”2″ publication on several pages within the site. Will this code work on other pages?

One other thing…I think the Virtue Premium theme I am using has code in the css to make tables default to expanding to 100% width. Take a look at the page in the site where this problem exists and you’ll see what’s happening. I am using a child theme on this site, so should we override that with css in the child theme?

The specific code in the virtue.css file is:

table {
 max-width:100%
}
table {
 border-collapse:collapse;
 border-spacing:0;
 background-color:transparent
}

Thank you, Kim! The code did work to narrow the table and change the font size, however it changes the width of ALL my WP Data Access tables I have two in this site, and the one involved here is wpdataaccess pub_id=”2″.

I’m not sure of the role of the #ktmain code in this string. Can you explain it?

Your question about loading the correct publication would be valid, if I had more than one publication! ?? I have only a single publication in this site.

I’m using the URL method to pull the selected data from the database, like this:

[wpdataaccess pub_id="1" filter_field_name="diary_entry_date" filter_field_value="1866%"]

I uploaded the SQL file to my DropBox account. You’ll see the links in the contact forum.

Thanks again, Peter.

I understand that the “Loading…” message I see is coming from my Virtue Theme. However, I can’t find that line of code in the theme editor to change or disable it. I use a Child Theme on this site, but I don’t know enough about altering or adding things to a Child Theme to try and fix or change this.

Here are screen shots of all the publication settings.

• Publication Data
• Publication Type
• Publication Styling
  This section also has me a bit confused. I built a style called “Diary Master” and it IS being used on the site. It is what provides the dark blue header and footer, the white font in the header and footer and the rounded corners. However, that is not what is shown here.
• Premium Extensions – Nothing entered in this section
• Advanced Settings

Thanks for going the extra mile with me here, Peter.

We’ve analyzed your webpage. When you open the image below, you’ll see that the loading message comes from another plugin.

I don’t know how to override that. I cannot find that code in the plug-in editor.

You can also see that WP Data Access shows its standard message. This means that the language options is not taken into account. I presume it is still there?`</blockquote>
<strong>Yes, the correct JSON is in the site like this:</strong>

{
??"language": {
?????"processing": "Loading the Diary Entries",
     "loadingRecords": "Loading the Diary Entries"
  }
}

There was no change when I corrected the JSON in “Advanced” section of the Premium Data Publisher. I still see the words “Loading…” and “Processing…” overlaid one on top of the other as the table loads.

Yessir, I sure can.

Choosing any of the diary pages will show this for a moment as the data is pulled fro the database.

Thanks for the quick response here, Peter.

I just updated to 5.2.9, and the problem remains, with a twist. Now when a page is loading, something new shows on the screen. I cannot attach an image here, so CLICK HERE to see a screen grab. The words “Loading” and “Processing” both appear on top of each other.

The json code I am using in the “Advanced” section of the Premium Data Publisher is:

{
??“language”: {
?????“processing”: “Loading the Diary Entries”,
“loadingRecords”: “”
}
}

Peter, your code didn’t work either. I got an error on the “processing….” line.

I think it’s missing a quote after “processing.”

The spinner will be nice, but I would still prefer to show a more personalized message specific to the site.

Thanks again, Charles.

If I use the code as you show in the previous post, I get the “Parse error on Line 1” error message. I have to add an initial bracket on the first line to clear that error, like this:

{
“language”: {
“processing”: “Loading the Diary Entries”,
“loadingRecords”: “Loading the Diary Entries”
}

This code shows no errors, however it still doesn’t work. When the page loads, it still says just “Processing…”

UPDATE:

I discovered my error related to the word “language” and fixed it. My code now reads:

{
??“language”: {
?????“processing”: “Loading the Diary Entries”,
“loadingRecords”: “Loading the Diary Entries”
??}
}

However, the problem persists. When the page loads, it still says just “Processing…”
