Complete frustration with this plugin!

First, I cannot get a horizontal nav bar to display on the top. I have followed directions to copy and paste the theme header code into the wp-fullpage header. But the theme doesn’t have any code for navigation, so now what? I am using Customizr, but I’m not married to that theme.

Also, when I moved the template folder into the themes directory, and renamed it wp-fullpage, my WordPress does not recognize it. I did a search for it, and a WP alert popped up saying that the style sheet was missing. Any clues as to why this is?

Thanks for making this plugin. I just wish I could understand how to work it better.

Cheers

Hi !

Thank you Glenn for your kindness, but you know, I have a job too and don’t have so much time to spend answering the question people ask 🙂

BTW, to answer the question, to see you navigation bar, you should fix it and add it some z-index using the css.

Regarding the popup, could you give me a link so I could check it ?

Regards,

Julien

well, you’ve built a complex plugin and provided zero documentation for it, so you should expect lots of questions.

i’m a fair coder. I’ve figured out most of it. and some bugs. good luck.

Hiya Glen !

I know that documentation is a part of the job, but you know, I spent more than 4 month developing this plugin and I know it’s pretty complex but I don’t have 1 more month to spend writing the full documentation… So I made it as intuitive and flexible as possible. But if you have the time, since you’re a coder, you could give some help !!

Regarding the bugs you found, could you share your experience, so I could fix it ?

Regards,

Julien

Hi Julien. I’m a so so coder! 😉 Thanks for taking the time to respond. I, too, was able to figure out many things just by trying out different things, and reading the forum. C’est trist, but I had to move onto a different method because of time constraints. However, I haven’t given up on the plugin. Maybe for the next project. I didn’t think to take a screen shot of the error window. I will create the new folder again and see what happens. I will post a screenshot if I get the same error. I will let you know. This won’t happen quickly. As you know, work interferes with fun!

Thanks again.

but you just said this above: “I have a job too and don’t have so much time to spend answering the question people ask…”

???

sorry. but you contradict yourself.

It’s a great plugin, and I was able to modify the code to make it work in a pretty complex WP install here: http://www.glennnall.com/test1, including the WP top STICKY menu with Ubermenu embedded and with a self-scrolling sidebar. Implementing the sidebar according to your build was very tricky without knowing code. there are things that have to be done with the code in Fullpage.php once you move the templates folder that arent covered in any docs.

Hi Glen,

What are those things you did to Fullpage.php when you moved your template over? Inquiring minds want to know.

And you should know that I am in direct contact with Julien by email. But I feel I should at least follow up on this post, and maybe help others who are having similar issues. I see that lots of people have downloaded this plugin, and given it a great rating, so they probably have more coding experience than I do. Plus, it’s never easy when English isn’t one’s native tongue.

Anyway… about those php changes?

Cheers

to even get get_sidebar to call the sidebar i had to move it to just below get_header for some reason. in its original placement it called nothing.

because i have a sticky header i had to remove the footer and close out the body divs like below.

the website is at http://www.glennnall.com/test
```
WPFP()->get_header('child');
WPFP()->get_sidebar('child');
 ?>
<div id="fullpage" class="<?php WPFP_Query()->get_fullpage_easing(); ?> <?php print WPFP_Query()->fullpage->post_name; ?>" data-bg="<?php print WPFP_Query()->get_fullpage_bg(); ?>">

<?php

while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

// Start the sections Loop.
WPFP()->get_sections();

endwhile;

	?>

</div>
</div>

<?php do_action( 'mfn_hook_bottom' ); ?>
<?php /*  WPFP()->get_footer('child'); */ ?>


<?php wp_footer(); ?>
```

Hi Glenn, Karen !

Glenn, it’s not because I don’t have so much time that I don’t have time at all… 😉

So please ask your questions and I’ll try to answer it.

Regarding your issue, I already posted something on the support to have an access to your ftp so I can check it. But you still did not answered me 😉 So please contact me for more details.

In fact, you should have something like that :
– YOURTHEME/wp-fullpage/fullpage.php should look like :
```
<?php
/**
 * The template for displaying all fullpages
 *
 * This is the template that displays all fullpages by default.
 * Please note that this is the WP Fullpage construct of fullpages and that
 * other 'pages' on your WordPress site will use a different template.
 */

WPFP()->get_header( 'child' ); ?>

<div id="fullpage" class="<?php WPFP_Query()->get_fullpage_easing(); ?> <?php print WPFP_Query()->fullpage->post_name; ?>" data-bg="<?php print WPFP_Query()->get_fullpage_bg(); ?>">

	<?php

		while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

			// Start the sections Loop.
			WPFP()->get_sections();

		endwhile;

	?>

</div>

<?php

// $navigation = WPFP_Query()->fullpage->fullpage_options['navigation'];

// if( 'yes' === $navigation )
// 	WPFP()->get_navigation();

WPFP()->get_sidebar( 'child' );
WPFP()->get_footer( 'child' );
```
– YOURTHEME/wp-fullpage/layout/header-child.php should look like :
```
<?php
/**
 * The Header for Fullpage
 *
 * Displays all of the <head>
 * 
 * @package 	WP_Fullpage\Templates\Layout
 */
?>

<!DOCTYPE html>



<html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>

<head>
	<meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>">
	<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">
	<title><?php wp_title( '|', true, 'right' ); ?></title>
	<link rel="profile" href="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
	<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo( 'pingback_url' ); ?>">
	
	<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>

<body <?php body_class(); ?>>
        
        <div id="wrapper">

	<?php 

		// if( WPFP_Query()->fullpage_has_full_navigation() )
		// 	WPFP()->get_sidebar( 'menu' );
```
– YOURTHEME/wp-fullpage/layout/footer-child.php should look like :
```
<?php
/**
 * The template for displaying the Fullpage footer
 *
 * Contains footer content.
 * 
 * @package 	WP_Fullpage\Templates\Layout
 */
?>

        </div>

        <?php WPFP()->get_sidebar( 'footer-child ); ?>

	<?php wp_footer(); ?>
</body>
</html>
```
– And finally, YOURTHEME/wp-fullpage/layout/sidebar-footer-child.php should look like :
```
<?php
/**
 * The Sidebar containing the main widget area
 * 
 * @package 	WP_Fullpage\Templates\Layout
 */
?>

         <?php do_action( 'mfn_hook_bottom' ); ?>
```
Thanks, cheers,

Julien
