Dear Peter,

Check https://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php for the date format options.

Try your rss feeds at https://simplepie.org/demo/ to see if it throws an error if not then it should work in the plugin but the site offering the feed requires a login chances are it will not work as you indicate.

Yours

Titus

Peter: rssdateformat allows item date to be formatted using php date parameters so you should be able to configure it however you like.

Ping me the feed you are working with and I’ll see if I can work out why only ten items show.

can you send me the rss feed URL as the default sort is no sort, the asc option simply reverses the order of the array rather than sorting by a given filed so it should not change the output from what you would expect it to show.

description shorten attribute will be in the next release.

I see the problem: the feed title items do have target _blank in the link and they work, the images do not because the image and its link are hard coded within the feed as a description so there is no way for the plugin to post process them to add a target. You could alter the feed to include the target but there is nothing I cna alter in the plugin to address the issue.

Can you post your complete shortcode as I have not encountered other instances of the target attribute not working.

Please paste the complete shortcode you have put in your page so I can assist in resolving the issue.

Thanks for the feedback. I have just committed version 2.4 with support for multiple feed URLs, which are then sorted as a single feed.

all but given up on contact form 7 saving to a db but one last try:

chrillea’s code does not work for me: if i copy it into the funcitons.php file the site fails to laod at all, if I make it a plug in file nothing shows in the db table when I test the form, however this works:

function cf72db ($cf7) {

$cf7_name = $cf7->posted_data["your-name"];
$cf7_email = $cf7->posted_data["your-email"];
$cf7_id = $cf7->id;
$sql = "INSERT INTO wp30.cf7_data (
Name,
Email,
FormID
) VALUES (
'$cf7_name',
'$cf7_email',
'$cf7_id'
)";
mysql_query($sql);
}

add_action( 'wpcf7_before_send_mail', 'cf72db' );

not as elegant but working – any clues why the $wpdb insert function would not work?

Casemon: I tried adding your code above to the functions.php of my theme to add values to a MySQL db but it does not work – I cannot verify that the wpcf7_before_send_mail hook is active not can I see where the $cf7 array is assembled in the plug in – any help you can give would be great. Happy to pool my findings on declaring the extended tags to track those too.

Thanks

I am trying to implement svoinea’s db add method without success: I added:
if ( function_exists(‘wpcf7_before_send_mail’) )

to see if the contact form hook is already present and the if fails. I also get a headers already sent error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

new version includes ability to exclude by ID and a shortcode for use in pages and posts – please let me know if this addresses your needs.

I have just posted version 1.0 which supports exclude page/post by ID in the widget in the same way that the WordPress Pages widget does. Next release will include a shortcode option that you can use within a page or post.
