In reply to: Erasing randomly where page jumps addedActually, looking at it again…it’s not stripping the formatting. It’s stripping what’s in between the formating, and JUST the things that have page jumps. And it’s only doing it if I look at it in full-screen mode.
This has got to be a WP known issue, doesn’t it?

In reply to: Erasing randomly where page jumps addedOk, that helps a lot. It did work, and still does work sometimes. What I do is do the page in another editor (Live Writer) and paste it in because for some reason Live Writer can’t talk to my server. I have to do it in WYSIWYG or it doesn’t take it at all. I’ve been going in and doing page jumps once it’s in, and then adding in one thing that’s less important but requires tables at the end.
These pages are huge, and coding from scratch it not an option, so I have to use something WYSIWYG at first.

In reply to: Page content disappear when I update that pageI posted the partial answer to this on a thread I started. For me, it had to do with using another editor and putting same-page jump links in in the other editor, and WP’s Autosave feature turning the < and > into a string of code. I had to go back a few versions, take the jumps out, put it back in WP and then re-code the jumps, and now it’s fine.
Hope this helps.

In reply to: New post is autoerasingFigured it out, to some extent, and posting here just for the record. For some reason, the WP Autosave function was removing the < and > marks and replacing them with code I didn’t recognize. I was able to see this when, in frustration, I copied and pasted from the Restore page. And it seemed to have something to do with the same-page jump links I’d put in my editing program.
I went back to an earlier saved version of the page in my editor, meaning I lost some work, and then reposted it. Works fine now.
The other two people having the problem were threads I found in this forum.

In reply to: New post is autoerasingTried that, and it’s not working–now it won’t even restore. And just since I posted that, two other people are having the same problem. None of my plugins have upgraded and neither has the theme. And it’s just affecting this one post, as far as I can tell (kind of scared to try any of the others, but posting another test worked). I guess it’s possible that the three of us are all on the same host or something, but I think it’s kind of odd that all of us developed the same weird glitch all at the same time, within hours of each other.

In reply to: WordPress Editor Wont Let me editWhat exactly do you mean? It’s not giving an area in which to edit?

In reply to: Page content disappear when I update that pageThat’s exactly the problem I’m having, too.

In reply to: Mobile Edition plugin?I’m using Wapple Architect as of yesterday, and it was dead simple. It doesn’t currently preserve any functional widgets from your sidebar, but I’m told that’s being considered.
Cool thing is it takes elements of your theme, like header, colors etc. so that what they see on their phone is very similar to what they saw on a normal computer. I don’t know of another that does that, and does it with almost no effort.

In reply to: Looking for a Reliable WP Ecommerce PluginI don’t know exactly what you’re selling, but I’m doing a subscription website. Your Members works great, and the support is terrific. It does handle payments. I believe one of the developers has a stand-alone ecommerce plugin.

In reply to: Trouble using any weblog software clientAdding to this: I mean the wrong path in setting up Live Writer. I notice the xlmrpc fix that was needed a year ago is now in the code itself. The fix says it needs to be in the first line. True? Not true?
I’m using WP 2.8.4 and the newest Live Writer, and the newest Athualpa theme. Tried the newest Scribefire, too.

In reply to: [Plugin: WP e-Commerce] THIS PLUGIN IS BUGGY AS HELLI had this installed today and uninstalled it in favor of Your Member (for subscription sales). Sales support there is spectacular, if that’s what you need. They have other premium plugins, too. He said something about a new shopping cart system they have coming. Page is https://www.newmedias.co.uk/ .

In reply to: Need plugin to handle recurring subscription paymentsOk, apparently there aren’t any. All the plugin developers assume that if you’re taking payments, you must be making a lot of money from your site. Or going to be making a lot of money from your site.
I’ve done a lot of searches, and there is a plugin called Wordpal that is still in development. There aren’t many docs or talk out there about it, so it’s really hard to tell what it will and won’t do. It may be standalone for what I need, or I might have to use the free level of Memberwing with it. However, looks like Wordpal will take the customer back to Paypal with *each* new post they need to pay for, which is *not* what I want at all. But it might work for others who are reading this thread. Where I am talking to myself, LOL.
I found software that will do this for as much as $3000 and as little as $30. I honestly don’t see that there is much difference between the $30-$50 ones in terms of one person using them for one site. Good developer options start at around $80. These are complete all-in-ones, where the scenario I describe in my first post can happen seamlessly. Or there are tons of other options in each to fit everything from pay-per-post/download, to having a full-fledged shop.
My top picks, by combination of price and features (including support and lack of wonkiness):
Your Member, currently $50 but about to go to $65 for a one-user license. Has all the features of the big ones, including prescheduled content releases to subscribers (so you can go on vacation!); has active and responsive developers.
Ones that *almost* made the grade:
Wp-member $44.99 + current coupon code for 25% off –looks terrific, does it all, but requires a yearly renewal. Sorry, but that’s a dealbreaker. If ALL the software I use required a yearly renewal the fees would be well more than the cost of a new computer.
Wp-ecommerce — Will do what I want, but only with addons that bring the price to $65.
Memberwing — the free version doesn’t include recurring subscriptions. Looks pretty good. For what I need it’s $97.
Wishlist Member — $97 Not sure that this is quite as good a solution; looks like you have to do some tinkering in Paypal’s system to make it work.
Other solutions: amember, Suma, are around $200. Too much for microbusinesses just starting up.
Other possibles:
Shopp — $55 — says recurring subscriptions are coming but aren’t there yet. That *could* push this one much higher on the list, partly because of price.Wordpal — free? Hard to tell if it supports recurring billing because it’s still in development
Wp membership — $29.97 doesn’t have recurring subscriptions, so really not a contender but could be if that was added
WP-estore — $20 Doesn’t do membership; doesn’t do recurring payments but I’m putting it here anyway because it could be used with the free version of Memberwing to partially deal with this.
Anyone want to add to this?

In reply to: How do you remove the footer in Atahualpa?With the newest version of Atahualpa, I can’t seem to find the file this info is in. Everything now is a “bha” file. Anyone know where to find this? I, too, don’t want an ad on my pages.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: In Atahualpa, widgets show on site but are inactive in admin?Ok, sort of have it figured out. For some reason on Dashboard, I wasn’t seeing the widgets that Atahualpa has. Once you put any one of them in any sidebar, that is the ONLY thing that will display (wiping out the default widgets). You can then add back in whatever you like, in any order.
