Ah! Okay, I just used the Disable Gutenberg plugin to disable to new editor, and bingo! (Could also use the Classic Editor plugin.)
Ah, okay, I see that now. It’s a bit hidden, though, at least for someone scanning the page. I do appreciate the reply, though, and I believe you that you’re not intending to mislead anyone. Just a little more obvious warning would probably prevent most of the 1-star reviews.

In reply to: [File Away] URL and directory issues with files and audio playerThanks so much for the reply!
Here’s the situation: WordPress multisite is installed at the root level (interurban.org), and there are a bunch of WordPress sites off of that, one at the domain root at interurban.org, one at interurban.org/ttt, etc. The particular WordPress site I’m messing with at the moment is at interurban.org/mw. They’re all just little projects I’m working on that I’ve made sites for off a single multisite installation.
I figured that if I messed with the “Set Root Directory” and the “Base URL” dropdowns, I’d get it, but it hasn’t worked out. Or at least I haven’t got the combination of those right. Right now I have it set to:
Set Root Directory: WP Install Directory
Base URL: interurban.orgAnd then I have Base Directory 1 set to “public_html/mwfiles”. I originally had that set to “public_html/mw/files” because that’s actually the way I’d love for them to be stored, but apparently WordPress doesn’t like that because it freaked out and did the White Screen of Death thing and just didn’t display any part of the site at all. Then, when I manually removed the /mw directory that File Away had auto-created, the White Screen of Death went away and the site was just fine. Which makes sense, I guess — WordPress doesn’t like you “duplicating” the URL it’s using for the site as a whole by creating a directory with the same URL in your file system (in this case, at interurban.org/mw).
Anyhow, I just assumed that I wouldn’t be able to get the files to show up at interurban.org/mw/files, so I made them save to interurban.org/mwfiles, which isn’t terrible. But then the audio player goes and looks for them at interurban.org/mw/mwfiles, no matter what settings I choose.
Hope that was clear, but I’m not sure it was — ask me more questions if you’d like.
Oh! I should also mention that I just upgraded to WordPress 4.2.1, in case that makes any difference.

In reply to: [scifi Facets] Taxonomies doesnt appearHi! I really, really want the plugin to work — it looks awesome. But I just can’t get it to. The “order” widget shows up on the front-end, but the “taxonomy” widget doesn’t! I mean, it doesn’t show up at all — nothing there. I’ve selected the custom post type and I’ve messed with all the options. But nothing shows up at all — not even the widget title — it’s as if I don’t even have it installed. Any ideas?
Here’s the site in question: https://interurban.org/cheapsheep/ (You can see why I’d really love to be able to filter all those event categories.)
Thanks very much!

In reply to: [Max Mega Menu] Problem with a checkbox above the menuHave the same problem happening with Max Mega Menu, and I haven’t figured it out yet. Seems to be a bad interaction of some kind. In my case, all the menu bar’s CSS formatting just disappears as well, so I’m left with some scraggly little words where the beautiful menus should be — and then a checkbox over top of them.
So far, I’ve discovered that I can force Max Mega Menu to fix itself if I just unclick “enable” in Appearance>Menus under “Max Menu Settings,” then click Save below that and then enable it and save again. — Basically just disable and reenable Max Mega Menu formatting. And then it looks great until I edit any other formatting on the website, at which point it decides it hates me again. No idea what’s happening, but there’s the quick fix.

In reply to: [Grunion Contact Form] Grunion Contact Form Doesn't Show UpYep. Just made this discovery myself. Simple Facebook Connect and Grunion definitely do not play nice together. Really too bad. :/ If anyone knows of a workaround, I would love to hear it.
esmi, thanks very much for the reply. Sorry for getting back to it so late.
There’s no index.php file in the root directory. But the .htaccess file I’ve been messing with IS located in the root. Should I move it to the /msp/ folder?
Thanks!

In reply to: Pretty permalinks not working for sub-directory WordPress siteWell, it’s been 24 hours now, and no responses. :/ I’m still frantically pulling my hair out about it, and none of my messing w/ .htaccess is doing any good. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks much.

In reply to: CSS changesHey! Thanks for posting the code. I’m not sure exactly, but my best guess is that it’s in this bit here:
#wrapper { width: 920px; margin: 75px auto 0 auto; }
in CSS, but “margin” property contains four possible values, in the order of “margin: top right bottom left;”. So this looks like it’s centering the whole thing on the page (“auto” margins on left and right). So to move both columns (I think) to the left, you could use something like:
margin: 75px 30px 0 auto;
If you actually meant that you want to keep the whole thing centered on the page but just spread it out and make it wider, I suspect you’d do that w/ #wrapper as well. Increase the width, and… well, that may be all you have to do. Give that a try first.
I’m not sure if this will work, but there are plugins available on the www.ads-software.com to do search engine optimization (SEO). The one I’m using is called “All in One SEO,” and it seemed to be extremely popular, if I remember right. I haven’t tested it yet to see if it sends proper descriptive text to search engines, but it might be worth a shot.
Good luck!
