just a reminder for folks that if you want to be able to edit the entries, that comes from the Single View mode, which you can only get into if you include the “entry ID” column in your list for the directory.

I can’t seem to figure out if it’s possible from this view to have an option to delete the person all together?

yup. I just got confirmation that it was Bluehosts doing/fault. This was their response:

WP Super Cache and W3TC were discovered to have remote code execution vulnerabilities. The makers of these plugins created an update a few days ago. Our admins are mass updating the 2 plugins across our servers now and anyone who had a vulnerable version of the plugin will also be getting automatically upgraded to WordPress 3.5 to prevent compatibility issues.

Interesting article about the vulnerability:

If your site is broken, we will help you with it but this must be done thru our ticket system by our site compatibility dept. You can open a ticket by going to cpanel, help, open a ticket. please be sure you include the url of the site that is broken and the wordpress dashboard username and password that has admin rights so we can investigate this for you.

Also, you may note that The Featured Products check-box has been moved. The featured product check-box is now located on the right-hand-side of the product update page in the WordPress admin. More specifically, the WooCommerce Featured Product check-box is located in the Publish widget > Catalog Visibility

Simple press must be uploaded manually via FTP, or else you’ll get errors about the header not been found.

better yet, avoid using the plug-in for this issue and just write some code directly into the functions.php file for your theme:

//Giving Editors Access to Gravity Forms
function add_grav_forms(){
	$role = get_role('editor');
	$role->add_cap('gform_full_access');
}
add_action('admin_init','add_grav_forms');

it works for me without having to use the capabilities plug-in at all.

thank you Sean, I did try using your function of “get_excerpt”. And it works great apart from the fact that if a post includes a featured image which includes a caption, it also spits out that data in the paragraph. For example, it displays:

[caption id="attachment_1843" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Several exterior colors can be used on Victorian homes."][/caption] Exterior paint color selection can be daunting for most of our clients. Unless… more

funny thing is, it only does this for the first excerpt in a list. your other function, listed here as get_the_popular_excerpt worked well apart from missing an actual Permalink. but I got the hang of it and now include in my functions.php file this code:

function get_the_frontpage_excerpt(){
	$permalink = get_permalink($post->ID);
	$excerpt = get_the_content();
	$excerpt = preg_replace(" (\[.*?\])",'',$excerpt);
	$excerpt = strip_shortcodes($excerpt);
	$excerpt = strip_tags($excerpt);
	$excerpt = substr($excerpt, 0, 170);
	$excerpt = substr($excerpt, 0, strripos($excerpt, " "));
	$excerpt = trim(preg_replace( '/\s+/', ' ', $excerpt));
	$excerpt = $excerpt.'... <a href="'.$permalink.'">Continue reading →</a>';
	return $excerpt;
}

And my front page template includes this code:
<p><?php echo get_the_frontpage_excerpt(); ?></p>

any way that you think that you can write the function so that it automatically wraps the excerpts in a paragraph like using <?php the_excerpt(); ?> does

Twenty Eleven only displays an author bio below the post when a blog has more than one author, AND, that other author has published at least one post.
