In reply to: Unable to insert new or images from media libraryIf your server uses open_basedir restrictions you need to add a line of code to the php.ini file to enable it, on MediaTemple it’s
open_basedir = /nfs:/tmp:/usr/local:/etc/apache2/gs-bin:/usr/bin/convertI haven’t tested this yet, fingers crossed!Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Unable to insert new or images from media libraryIt’s a server issue I tested one of my other websites hosted on a different server. WP 4.1 version uses ImageMagick software for image upload however default settings for PHP5 will prevent it from being executed through a PHP script, so this needs to be enabled. Now to find out how, lol!

In reply to: Unable to insert new or images from media libraryI’m having the same issue, the upload progress line gets about quarter of the way and then freezes. Not good.

In reply to: Make posts page show excerpts()Thanks for your help. I’ll go through and edit the loop.php file.
I had searched the WordPress forums for this solution, and did find similar questions however must answers were replace the_content() with the_excerpt() and to be honest I didn’t realise the conditional tag is_home() refers to the posts page that isn’t my home page as well.
Least I know for future projects.
Thanks again.

In reply to: Make posts page show excerpts()Hi,
This doesn’t work for me, I’m using a static page so I also tried is_front_page()?
I’m using a page called ‘Our Blog’ as my posts page.
Any other ideas?
Many thanks

In reply to: the_excerpt() function modificationHi everyone,
I used the http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/advanced-excerpt/ to prevent excerpt HTML tags from being stripped. Works perfectly saves having to edit the core files anyway.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: the_excerpt() function modificationI’m putting together my own theme, I’m using the current twentyten functions to save me some work and I amend if necessary.
On the front page, because of the design I want to have an except of the main home page. Do you know how I would show an excerpt of a page? Would I just use the_excerpt() function again?
Then I have the latest post, and again only showing the except as mentioned. I’d like both to include HTML tags.
This is for a client who will be updating the website themselves so need to make it as simple as possible, i.e. They only need to put content into the main home page and add a post and excerpts will show on the front page.
If anyone knows how to do this, be much appreciated. I’ll try to find a solution and if I do I’ll post on here.
Thanks for trying to help Jan, I’ll probably end up using the plugin you mentioned if I can’t find a solution this weekend.

In reply to: the_excerpt() function modificationHi Jan,
Thanks for your comments. I have thought about using a plugin but I’d rather add a new function rather than relying on another plugin, if I can’t find a solution I’ll use this option.
There’s quite a few articles on the web that show how you can do it, but I’m not sure if they are outdated as I can’t seem to get them work.
I came across this one http://bacsoftwareconsulting.com/blog/index.php/wordpress-cat/how-to-preserve-html-tags-in-wordpress-excerpt-without-a-plugin/
Think it might need tweaking but not sure where to start. Would you mind taking a look to see if you can get it to work for you?
Many thanks

In reply to: Responsive sliderHi Mark,
Heres the alternative CSS solution.
In your template style.css file add this
.responsive-slider.flexslider .slide-title a { visibility:hidden; }Mark
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Responsive sliderHi Mark,
I’m looking for the same solution, I have a temp one but this will need to be carried out on every reponsive-slider plugin update.
responsive-slider > responsive-slider.php
line 261 remove this code
<h2 class="slide-title"><a href="<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, "_slide_link_url", true ); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>" ><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>I’m going to try and get the same result using CSS so you don’t need to do this every update! I will post this here when I do.
Regards

In reply to: GD Star RatingHi, yes its a CSS issue, find the .ratingblock class. You need to make it visible, and will probably need to alter the margins etc… so it displays correctly.

In reply to: Styling .page-item-x Parent?Hi esmi,
my sites on my local server so can’t give you a link. I’ll provide you with the CSS I have so you can see exactly what I’m doing to style it.
[98 lines of CSS moderated as per the Forum Rules.]
but no joy, is it possible to style all children of the page-item class or something?
Many thanks
