In reply to: [Conditional Menus] Simply Doesn’t Work at AllI came up with a solution that doesn’t require a plugin, is flexible, and works great. Menus can swap based on templates, forum, page, posts, whatever you stipulate.

In reply to: [Conditional Menus] Interface stopped functioningGidday. I had no end of problems with swapping out the menu for certain pages including BuddyPress and BBPress pages. No plugin could do it as it was either a manual choosing of the menu from the page which didn’t show on BuddyPress or BBpress, or there wasn’t a group of pages like Categories, Tags, Posts, etc that would allow BuddyPress or BBPress pages to show the new menu or you had to manually go into every forum post and topic and do it manually. So it was never going to work for me. So I found my own way to accomplish this and it could be helpful for you even if you are not using Buddy or BBPress. It doesn’t even require a plugin. Instructions are here:

In reply to: [GF Windcave Free] Make Credit Card fields appearYes. I originally googled DPS payment Gravity Forms and this Add On seemed like the only game in town. The author helped me in every possible way and responded fast to emails. So I give this plugin author a 6 out out of 5 if that’s possible.
But the confusion was at DPS level and to be honest, they were hard to work with. I was only given the login credentials with no info on what API it was for. I just assumed the login I was given would just work as I’ve only worked with the likes of PayPal which is simple.
I found a way to make Gravity work with PxPost. It required a couple of plugins. One to make Gravity work with Woocommerce and the other to make Woocommerce use PxPost.
But this PxPay plugin was preferred as it is simple to use and perfect for what the client wanted.
If you are using PxPay, then try this plugin.

In reply to: [GF Windcave Free] Make Credit Card fields appearI’m waiting to hear back from DPS with the login credentials. In the meantime, I have a redirect page that creates a post on the Gravity Form side. I think I read somewhere that this can still work along with DPS.

In reply to: [GF Windcave Free] Make Credit Card fields appearThanks for that.
The form doesn’t direct to the Payment Express page, so I’m guessing the most likely candidate is wrong login credentials to Payment Express?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Sweet Captcha] Sweetcapcha hacked and causing malicious popupsGoodbye SweetCaptcha. I have deleted all their plugins on sites I run. I have let the WordPress community that I am in touch with know to not trust these guys. I wasted hours on this and deleted some genuine plugins thinking they might be the cause.

In reply to: [WP Lightbox 2] How to enable lightbox on featured image.Do it in the file that displays the featured image. It could be your single-post.php. Could be /wp-includes/post-thumbnail-template.php
Link the featured image with this:
<a href="<?php $feat_image = wp_get_attachment_url( get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID) ); echo $feat_image; ?>" rel="lightbox">
Don’t forget to close the link off.

In reply to: [WP Lightbox 2] Pop up for featured imageDoes anyone know what is the code to link a featured image to itself. I have googled it and cannot find it anywhere. All code I have tried links to the post not the image itself.

In reply to: [Point] my ads don't showFrom my experience, responsive ads do not show in the header but non-responsive ones do. This is rather annoying because the theme is mobile friendly, but I am forced to put a 728×90 ad in the header which looks bad on mobile.
The problem could affect ads on other areas of the site, but I have 300×250 ads in the side bar which happen to be mobile friendly. Perhaps responsive doesn’t work there either?

That should have worked. Please check that you do not have this line twice.
'container' =>
If you do, then delete the one that doesn’t say
'container' => 'dynamic-grid',
And of course, make sure the functions.php you have online is the right one (with the correct code). You can read the file using edit file in your FTP app.
Whenever I edit a file like functions.php, I rename the old one online to functions.php.old. If you upload a completely botched file, you always have the option of deleting it and renaming the old one back.
