In reply to: [bbp style pack] 6.3.7 update crashed my site –EDIT: Fixed!Apologies for breaking the rules with this post! I should have known better, but I was panicking.
@mlwilkerson thanks for the link. I’m surprised that didn’t come up when I searched earlier.
Anyway, adding the “font_awesome_disable_block_editor_support” line to functions.php had no effect.
Downloading the zip from Github and manually placing the svg-with-js.css file seems to have done the trick.
Question: After this manual update, will I need to do anything special when the next proper update rolls out?
In case it helps, here are my answers to the questions you posed to that other poster:
- Yes, it’s intentional. Our webhost is suuuuper focused on security and my superiors like it that way.
- Not really. They did let me add
define('FS_METHOD', 'ftpext');to wp-config.php so I can update things via browser (with ftp credentials), but that’s all I’m allowed to do. - Yes, if there’s no other way.
@wfpeter The MySQLi option seems to work. Thanks.

In reply to: Updating any plugins results in 0 Kb filesThanks, and sorry I forgot to come back to update this. Turned out to be a permissions issue and our host took care of it.

In reply to: [VS Event List] Do template changes survive plugin updates?Ok, thanks for the follow-up. If you take feature suggestions for VSEL, how about someday including an option for using custom templates? Something simple like a checkbox that says “Use custom template” that simply makes the plugin load a different php file, and maybe a different css file as well. That way people who want to go from “Very Simple” to just “Kinda Simple” could still use your plugin and keep it updated without too much difficulty.

In reply to: [VS Event List] Do template changes survive plugin updates?So when I first installed the plugin, the featured image thumbnail always appeared at the bottom of each event listing. Client wanted the image at the top left, with the title and other text wrapping around it.
In the php file, I took the section called
// featured imageand pasted it after
// meta section if ($page_title_location != 'yes') { $output .= $page_meta_section_start; }This made the image appear first. Then I edited the vsel-style.min.css to make the image float left and removed float attributes from the text, along with sizing and other adjustments. So it kind of did this:
Before:
Title Text Title Text Other text and date info here lorem ipsum dolor sit amet... Tags, etc. [image] [image]After:
[image] Title Text Title Text [image] Other text and date info here lorem ipsum dolor sit amet... Tags, etc.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [VS Event List] Display only events in a specific date rangeThat’s a good idea. I’ll be using a bunch of categories anyway, so adding month names won’t be hard. I’ll give that a try. Thanks!
