In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Handling WebP imagesHmm… relevant discussions regarding the Performance plugin and RSS feeds and email clients here:
https://github.com/WordPress/performance/issues/74
Closed without any solution, apparently. 🙁

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Handling WebP imagesHi @sspjumpstorycom I would recommend reaching out to the Performance plugin support forums, and ask there, as they control what images are used for the posts, and could add an option to exclude the RSS feed, since some email clients don’t support it.
One workaround could be to make the “View in Web Browser” link much larger, or add Outlook-specific CSS so it’s much larger or a must-use, or change it to “If using Outlook, click here” etc, and their browser will display the images properly.
I will do some more research on this and see if there’s an option we could add that disables webp in the RSS feed somehow as well.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Alert cannot be dismissedHi @bedas hmm, that is strange, in my testing it stays dismissed. I can only think that it is somehow caching the options via redis or memcache or other caching, and that should not be the case for the back-end of the site. I can also inquire with the SDK team and see if they have any ideas.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Alert cannot be dismissedHi @bedas that notification is dismissable, and depending on your hosting it may take a few seconds to register the dismissal. If it is NOT dismissing and keeps reappearing, there may be a Javascript error on your Admin pages causing this. Please check the browser console, and look for red console errors. Also, in the Network tab, you should see a request sent to your site when you click to dismiss it, which sets the flag so it does not reappear. That request may return an error result (403, 500, etc), and that is a server-side issue to troubleshoot, it should return a success result of 200.
Please note that we would never add any admin notices that are not dismissable, and that notification is using the standard notification hooks provided by WordPress and the SDK we use, which is used by hundreds of other plugins as well, so it should work well and be dismissed properly as long as there are no Javascript or server issues blocking the dismissal setting.
Please let me know if you have continued trouble with getting it to work, I am happy to help troubleshoot this further.
Thanks,
RobHi @huntlake sometimes Mailchimp requires some custom CSS added to the template to adjust the image styling, because Mailchimp strips out the CSS our plugin adds to the feed:

Please let me know if this helps?

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Big billboard that doesn’t work@ebonweaver We have over 30,000 active installs, the plugin works great, and you can submit a support thread if you’re having issues, especially before leaving a poor review due to your unique issues. No images in the feed is a very common issue with caching or CDNs and is heavily covered in our FAQs and Knowledge-base articles.
There should not be 4 pages of advertising, and the admin notice about the free trial should be dismissable.
@isaumya Ok message sent to you with details and a temp login link to the test site.
Hi @isaumya the client made a YouTube video of the issue, let me see if it’s still available. Basically when we edit a header element, we can type text or numbers, but the space bar doesn’t work. I don’t think it’s CSS related, it must be Javascript. If you like you can email me… support at presswizards.com and I can reply with a temp login link to the cloned test site that has the issue.

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Does it work with multisite?Hi @tcolling yes it uses the standard WordPress RSS hooks, so it should work with multisite, and each sub-site should have it’s own RSS feed. You could Network Activate it, and then the plugin’s options are available for each site.
Let me know if you run into any issues.
For this you could try using the free trial of the premium version and enable merge tag images and also check the only merge tag images option, then in Mailchimp instead of using the CONTENT merge tag, use only TITLE and IMAGE merge tags. The free version includes the image in the CONTENT merge tag with the body of the post (excerpt or full).

In reply to: [Featured Images in RSS for Mailchimp & More] Exclude custom feeds!!!Hi @vimalroy08 Remove a custom feed or a specific feed? Not in the free version, the premium version does support post category exclusions and other features such as:
- Feature Body Image: No featured photos set? No problem. Use the first photo from the body of posts.
- Disable Responsive Images: Helps fix services that have issues with the responsive image code, like Mailchimp’s Preview.
- Exclude Categories: Exclude unwanted categories not meant to be included in the RSS feed, like Homepage or Featured categories.
I would recommend giving the free 14 day trial of the premium version a try, and see if that helps address your needs?
If you have custom feeds or want a specific type of feed to be excluded from having images included in the feed, my recommendation would be to not set featured images on those feeds. Not every feed supports featured images, and so our plugin wouldn’t affect those feeds. Adding a feed type exclusion is something we may consider adding to the plugin in the future.

In reply to: [Dynamic Copyright Year] Dynamic Copyright Year plugin throwing warnings@bigleaf3 Apologies for the delay, I’m not sure how we missed this thread. PHP warnings can be ignored, and we recommend ensuring that WP_DEBUG is not enabled in any production use. In any event we will look into these array warnings, and update the code to avoid them.
Hey @2winfactor I tried the code samples, but it’s not working. I was hoping it’d be similar to:
add_action(‘surecart/order_paid’, ‘handle_surecart_order_paid’, 10, 2);
similar to WooCommerce’s order status hook:
add_action(‘woocommerce_order_status_processing’, ‘handle_woocommerce_order_paid’, 10);
And then that function is passed the order:
function handle_surecart_order_paid($order, $webhook_data) { $orderID = $order->id; $customerName = $order->name; $customerEmail = $order->email; ... }But that is def not working… I don’t really want an “integration”, I’m looking more for a hook into the plugin and then get the order info.
I’m also not sure how to programmatically add a checkout form field, like I can do in WooCommerce:
add_filter('woocommerce_checkout_fields', 'add_my_billing_custom_checkout_field');I was hoping there were some flushed out PHP code samples that work, and could then be expanded on.
I tried the events examples but got errors…
do_action( 'surecart/purchase_created', (\SureCart\Models\Purchase::class) $purchase, (array) $webhook_data );syntax error, unexpected variable "$purchase", expecting ")"Would love some help or additional resources to get a simple order paid hook working.
@jaskon Are there any sample PHP code for using these hooks, to get customer name, email, and order fields, etc? An example PHP client library for the API? The dev docs are very sparse.
