In reply to: [Lightbox Plus Colorbox] External Site Won't Load In The iframeI am having the same issue. I couldn’t get YouTube vids to work, till I realized I had to use the embed link. Now those look great, so I was moving on to trying to have a link to a Pinterest image open up that linked Pinterest page in the lightbox window, but I get the description, and I get a scroll bar, but just blank space where the page should be. Has anyone resolved?

In reply to: [Youtube Channel Gallery] Thumbs QualityNo problem! Right now I’m working on adding the ability to paginate/side scroll like you do on YouTube, and as I explore the code I’m finding many quirky things.
From what I can tell it may be the width at which it IMPORTS the images, which then get scaled down to the correct size based on your columns, which sadly were written to be static. So I had 4 columns; the code has static width % set for 1 – 10 columns (if you go beyond 10 you need to add more lines to the source code manually – this is also the location you can alter to set fixed widths); my image width was set to “70” so it was importing the static image at 70px wide and then scaling UP to 199px (which was the 25% width from my 4 column output).
I think when I set the image width to 480 it changed the IMPORT of the static image at 480px, and then scaled DOWN to 199px, making the image look great.
I’m starting to learn this thing decently as I customize it, so any other questions hit me up and I’ll see if I know anything.
PS. I haven’t done web code in 12 years, my last website went offline in 2003, so assume my skills are VERY novice! ??

In reply to: [Youtube Channel Gallery] Is there Pagination?I third this. I was hoping to mimic the way YouTube has the arrows to the left and right of a segment of videos that you can click to scroll through to additional ones.

In reply to: [Youtube Channel Gallery] Thumbs QualityHey guys,
Go to the Tumbnail tab, and alter the area that says “Tumbnail Width” which actually doesn’t control the width at all, but rather the quality. I put mine up to 480 and they got really sharp.

In reply to: [WP RSS Multi Importer] Read This Before You PostHey guys, if it is inconsistent like that, the problem could be a memory issue with WordPress. I use this plugin with no issues, however another plugin I used which does create my posts by pulling content from a URL like Facebook does kept being inconsistent on which pages would import properly and which would not.
For a quick attempt at a fix, find the plugin called “Change Memory Limit” -super basic with no bells and whistles, just allows you to change the default WordPress 32MB memory limit. My site uses 43.7MB so I was stalling out, changed it to 128MB and I have had no further issues.
Also, Allen, is there a place to send suggestions for future versions?

Any updates on this? In my current version I don’t get the very large white background with the facebook profile image, now I get the words “log in” which overlap / float over whichever the next social button may be.

In reply to: [Nextend Twitter Connect] Twitter Error 1 with Nextend Twitter Connect 1.4.60I am having the same problem, assuming the issue is on the Twitter end, but any info is helpful! Need to know if I have to take down the Twitter log-in option entirely or what have you.
