Thanks Jesse. I hadn’t seen the embed code before and it looks as thought that might be the way ahead.

I’ll let you know how I get on.

Ah, thanks Varesz. That was rather straightforward!

‘Update List’ solved my problems too MarshaS. Have you tried that?

I’ll also add my name to the list. I get the same error message since upgrading to the latest version of the plugin.

My website is https://thenextchallenge.org (though I’ve turned the plugin off now)

And I’m running the Thematic Power Blog theme if that’s relevant.

Any suggestions much appreciated.

Tim.

…and already sorted out the problem with my posts returning 404s.

This is a great forum!

Jleuze, Andrea,

Thanks for getting back to me. The Custom Post Type looks like it might be the best option for me.

I’m glad you got in there before I spent ages converting to a multi-site. However, I did start trying to set up a multi-site before I posted here and now none of my posts display! Better start searching the forum…

Thanks again for the help.

Tim.

Thanks for that alchymyth.

I can’t find this anywhere:

<?php the_category(', '); ?>

I’m pretty new to this but I guess it’s something to do with the theme I’m using (Thematic).

If it’s just me being daft then please do shout. Otherwise, I’ll try posting on the Thematic forum.

Thanks again for taking the time to help.

Tim.

Thanks so much for the reply aclhymyth (and apologies for my slow response).

I’ve tried taking that line out and replacing it with other terms but to no avail.

Any further suggestions much appreciated.

Thanks,
Tim.

Hi Hector

Just wanted to say a big thank you for logging into my site and fixing the problem (which was entirely at my end rather than yours!). It works a treat now.

Thank you.

Hi Ikki

You helped me some time ago and I’ve got a new burst of enthusiasm for fixing my problem if you have any patience left…?

I think it is probably a known issue but I can’t quite work out how to solve it.

– Weekly/monthly tags bring back ‘Sorry. No data so far.’.
– I have wp_head() in my header.php
– wp_popularpostsdata has lots of entries but wp_popularpostsdatacache is EMPTY
– I think my wp-admin folder is password protected (but this is a bit beyond me!)

Very sorry if this is a basic question or been addresses elsewhere but any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Tim.

(The entries under ‘Recent Popular Posts’ aren’t using the plugin)

Thanks again Ikki. I am indeed using WPP 2.02 and the latest version of WordPress.

I tried copying your code and still get ‘Sorry. No data so far’

If anything comes to mind then let me know otherwise I will just have to live with it for now!

Thanks for all of your help.

Tim.

Hey Ikki

I’m not sure which one of those it’s called by I type the code into the sidebar.php in the WordPress editor. Something like this one…

<div id="popular_posts">
<?php if (function_exists("get_mostpopular")) get_mostpopular("range=all&......?>
</div>

Thank you!
Tim.

Hey Ikki

Thanks for your swift updates. The ordering is now working perfectly on my site.

I still can’t get the bullet points to show but it’s not the end of the world. I’ll keep checking back here in case anyone figures it out.

However, my ‘Monthly’ category still says ‘Sorry, No data so far’. I read your post about it creating a new file that would take a while to populate but I’ve had it up for about a week now.

Is this normal is there something I should do?

Thanks again for your time,
Tim.

Thanks Ikki. Just copied and pasted Truth’s code but same thing – no bullets and still ordered by Comments. Very strange!

Thanks Ikki.

Removed the quotes but no change I’m afraid. This is my code now:

<?php if (function_exists("get_mostpopular")) get_mostpopular("header=MostPopularPosts&header_start=<h2>&header_end=</h2>&range=all&order_by=views&limit=8&stats_comments=0&stats_views=0&wpp_start=<ul>&wpp_end=</ul>&post_start=<li>&post_end=</li>&pages=0"); ?>

Ikki, many thanks for the pointer and swift upgrade.

Mpiftex, thanks also for the code. However, even when I copy it directly into my Sidebar, it comes out different.

1. It’s ordered by Comments rather than Views.

I’ve got the “order_by=views” command and can tell it’s not because I can get it to display the number of Comments and/or Views.

2. It doesn’t show up the bulleted list.

Just text, no bullet points.

Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Tim.
