Especially since no support is implied anywhere.

I’ve found that if you ask nicely, most of the time, someone helps out. There are some really great developers who DO listen and help here.

On the other hand, I’ve certainly asked questions that get no answers at all. C’est la vie…

Most of THOSE times, it’s because I am trying to do something VERY funky!

the wp-pro list has affordable professional help that I’ve hired before and had great results from… but expect to pay a reasonable amount for their time, it’s worth it in every case I’ve experienced.

Good luck with it!

My main complaint — and I DO get to complain if I want to — has to do with the lack of foresight by the developers who planned and executed the feature.

Any such “feature” should have a way A) to disable it and/or B) to remove the old, older and oldest revisions if desired without having to resort to running an SQL in phpMyAdmin.

It would have been fairly simple to add a checkbox by each revision and a delete button to remove any checked revision using pretty much the same sql as provided for all of us “complainers” to use. However… while I feel fairly comfortable doing that, many, many –including the person I was helping — don’t. Such feedback provides the developers insight into making the product BETTER, since it claims to be easy to use for the general public.

If you think that basic statement on GOOD programming and GOOD user interface is a complaint, then you must be invested in the feature is all I can say. Whether I pay for the software or not is irrelevant. I pay in hours spent sussing out WTF is going on when it goes wrong.

I don’t HAVE to live with the “way it is” dude. I CAN provide feedback in the EXTEND portion of this site and I have. Your attitude is rude and smartass and far from helpful, so if you don’t have more to offer, shut up.

This just needs to be fixed. Fine, if you want to leave it, but put a freaking check box next to each revision and a DELETE button that allows an author to go in and get rid of this crap without having to edit a database!

Ridiculous idea anyway, imo… just a way to puff up a db for no good reason… especially without making it easy for non-programmers to fix.

Talk about bogging down web services… what WERE they thinking?

the Shifthis newsletter plugin has some good features. (I’m struggling with it right now) but the support purely sucks, even though Marcus re-opened the forum, there’s no real help there and he doesn’t seem to reply that much, especially to the hard stuff.

My biggest issue with is, after figuring out how to get the mailed html email to work as desired is that the documentation of import/export of subscribers (import because you have a huge csv of email addresses you want to add) is less than useful.

I look at the example given and compare that with what I export with 3 test subscribers and the examples don’t match. Heck, it’s different for even the 3 test rows. SIGH.

I tried phplist and the wp plugin that works with it but it won’t send the html formatted in a way that my own email program even displays it… (Thunderbird) and I do have “original html” turned on.

sigh. I’ll just figure out how to use a bit of sql to write to the table, I guess.

Try clicking the Add Media Insert Image button. In the dialog that comes up, there is, at the top of the popup dialog, “From Computer”, a “Choose Files to Upload” button, and some text that says “After a file has been uploaded, you can add titles and descriptions.”

This is what you do first. Afterwards, you can use the tools below to select images already uploaded for insertion.
