# [Plugin: Comic Easel] Function Weirdness?

 * I started off with Easel and a child theme for my website a few years back and
   while I liked it, I wanted more control over the theme itself.
 * When Comic Easel (the plugin) was announced, I was rather excited and downloaded/
   installed it… which worked about as expected, but came with a unique problem 
   that is preventing me from using it at all.
 * I use Market Press light to run my storefront and well… when I have Comic Easel
   activated, it prevents the store from listing the products on category pages.
 * Because this is kind of hard to explain, I created a video showing what it’s 
   doing: [http://livestre.am/48eOg](http://livestre.am/48eOg) (I apologize for 
   the advertisements. It was just easier to use livesteam to record everything).
 * As I state a couple of times in the video, I don’t really know what’s affecting
   what. I tried debugging it some myself, but I can’t pinpoint any calls to the
   same function or anything like that.
 * Since you wrote the code, I would assume you have a better idea than I do and
   would like to know what’s up. 🙂

 * I believe I know what this is,
 * How well can you handle editing some .php files to test?
 * Edit the file wp-content/plugins/comic-easel/functions/filters.php
 * At the top of the file you will see this:
 *     ```
       add_filter('request', 'ceo_rss_request'); // Add comics to the main RSS
       add_filter('the_content_feed','ceo_insert_comic_into_feed'); // Insert the comic image into the rss
       add_filter('the_excerpt_rss','ceo_insert_comic_into_feed');
       add_filter('the_content', 'ceo_insert_comic_into_archive'); // Insert the comic into the archive and search pages
       add_filter('the_excerpt', 'ceo_insert_comic_into_archive');
       add_filter('previous_post_rel_link', 'ceo_change_prev_rel_link_two', $link); // change the rel links for comic pages
       add_filter('next_post_rel_link', 'ceo_change_next_rel_link_two', $link);
       add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'ceo_query_post_type');
       add_filter('body_class', 'ceo_body_class');
       add_filter('get_terms_args', 'ceo_chapters_find_menu_orderby');
       // add_filter('get_lastpostmodified', 'ceo_lastpostmodified');
       ```
   
 * What I want you to do is add a // in front of the add_filter for the pre_get_posts
   so it looks like this:
 *     ```
       add_filter('request', 'ceo_rss_request'); // Add comics to the main RSS
       add_filter('the_content_feed','ceo_insert_comic_into_feed'); // Insert the comic image into the rss
       add_filter('the_excerpt_rss','ceo_insert_comic_into_feed');
       add_filter('the_content', 'ceo_insert_comic_into_archive'); // Insert the comic into the archive and search pages
       add_filter('the_excerpt', 'ceo_insert_comic_into_archive');
       add_filter('previous_post_rel_link', 'ceo_change_prev_rel_link_two', $link); // change the rel links for comic pages
       add_filter('next_post_rel_link', 'ceo_change_next_rel_link_two', $link);
       // add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'ceo_query_post_type');
       add_filter('body_class', 'ceo_body_class');
       add_filter('get_terms_args', 'ceo_chapters_find_menu_orderby');
       // add_filter('get_lastpostmodified', 'ceo_lastpostmodified');
       ```
   
 * What that will do is disable the filter that I created for the pre_get_posts,
   it will stop the archive from working for comic easel yeah but at least we can
   check if that’s the function that is causing the issue.
 * Make sure you clear cache and all that of course.

 * Okay nevermind all that above.
 * I found out the issue 😉
 * It’s actually Marketpress after all, but no worries it’s a very easy fix.
 * I posted it here: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-marketpress-wordpress-ecommerce-bug-report-marketpress?replies=1#post-3167094](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-marketpress-wordpress-ecommerce-bug-report-marketpress?replies=1#post-3167094)
 * Basically the marketpress plugin isn’t setting the is_post_type_archive boolean
   to true so the ‘archive’ for Easel isn’t allowing multiple components to utilize
   it.

 * I never got a chance to reply to this until now, but that totally corrected the
   issue
    Thank you so much for the help! 😀
