I have this problem as well… I created a new slideshow, got its shortcode to deploy it, and that shortcode is showing the slideshow just fine. I edited the slide show to change the height parameter from the default 200 to 300 and when I clicked on Update, it suddenly turned into an empty Post type (rather than Slideshow type) page, and it is no longer listed in Slideshows->Slideshows from the Dashboard panel… As billrehm says, from the end user point it’s okay, but from the webadmin POV it’s not, no more editing.

The first slideshow I created remains in the Slideshows->Slideshows list, but now I’m leery of editing/changing it…

OK, this is a nice example to see… I’m looking for a way to skip the <a href if there is no web address supplied. (I’m repurposing the simple links as a publications database.. and sometimes there isn’t a link supplied to the actual paper, so it defaults to a plain citation. of course, if I don’t specify a web address, it puts in a href=”” so it links to the same page which is a little confusing.

So I would do something like (in the theme? or in functions.php?)

add_filter( 'simple_links_link_output', function($link_output, $meta_data, $link, $image, $args, $class ){
     $category = wp_get_post_terms( $link->ID, 'simple_link_category');
     //Main link output
     if (empty($class->getData('web_address'))) {
        $link_output=$link->post_title
     } else {
        $link_output= $output = sprintf('<a href="%s" [etc]
     }
     return $link_output;

 },1, 6);

??

Also, any hints on how to possibly add something to the shortcode such that I could say something like

[simple-links category=”<author name>” date=”2013″ description=”true”]

And it would list everything for that year?
