Thanks for adding the BAVOTASAN_SEE_MORE constant. However, if I don’t want to display the box at all, I currently have to define the constant to the empty string or null in my child theme and hide the element with CSS. Can you update header.php once more so that the element isn’t even added to the HTML if the constant is undefined?

Is $author_id defined where you put this code? What happens if you just write echo $author_id?

Can I suggest that this 410px default height be made customizable without CSS? Would be great to add an option. Google searches show this is a relatively common question.

I actually found the line-height didn’t need to be changed, but the other two changes were necessary.

Hi there, sorry for the delayed response. You can update any image’s credit through the Media Library. As far as displaying the credit on your site, you’d have to change your theme’s template to use one of the many template tags discussed here: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/media-credit/faq/

Thanks.

Ping — Grant, can you answer pepe’s questions?

Unlike pepe, I don’t see the “Refresh preview” option, so I’m afraid you might have to delete and repost, Robert.

But before doing so, preview what a post would look like — even if it’s a new post. We want to make sure that the summary won’t have any shortcodes before you go through and repost the one culprit article.

Based on what I can gather from Revolution Slider, it seems you would have to use some of the Media Credit template tags and hooks provided by Revolution Slider to include media credit within the slider.

Robert’s blog post that posted to Facebook with [media-credit] unparsed: https://robertleemurphy.net/iron-horse-chronicles/western-fiction-review-covers-eagle-talons/

I went to Facebook to post the same blog post, but the title/description I get auto-generated from Facebook is simply: “Western Fiction Review” / “Western Fiction Review covers Eagle Talons.”

Robert, can you try previewing posting the same article and see if you see the same as me?

Then try removing the add_filter( 'the_excerpt', 'remove_media_credit_from_excerpt' ); from your functions.php that you just added and preview re-posting that same article. Do you see [media-credit] then?

If, when sharing on Facebook and you see the shortcode, the shortcode is in the beginning of those posts, please see my comment here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/remove-short-code-from-excerpt

Hi Robert,

I’m sorry to hear you’re having problems with the plugin. Please see the first item in the FAQ about hiding the shortcode: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/media-credit/faq/

However, did you uninstall in the first place because [media-credit] was appearing? When this happens, is the Media Credit shortcode right at the beginning of your article? What if it’s somewhere in the middle?

Thanks,
Scott

Nacin, any ideas?

Awesome, thanks for addressing!
Didn’t Nacin say not to use add_shortcode(‘wp_caption’), though?
