In reply to: [Contact Form 7] Yellow Bar below form, but still receiving data@kristenphotos We hit a similar problem. CF7 changed the way that responses are coloured in v5.2 (see https://contactform7.com/2020/07/04/contact-form-7-52/#more-36548). Unfortunately, this change now uses generic terms such as “alert” and, for us, these generic terms had already been given styles (by Twitter Bootstrap for us). This gave us the yellow bar (it also removed all response messages and error highlighting for us). I suspect that you have hit the same sort of problem. We have temporarily reverted to v5.1.9 while we work out how to accommodate CF7’s latest changes.

In reply to: [Font Awesome Shortcodes for WordPress] £ converted to £ by fa-ulIn case anybody else hits this problem, after having tried a few things that did not work, the solution that worked for me was to insert the following line into the fontawesome-shortcodes.php file. It needs to be inserted into the scrape_dom_element function, just before the line that reads
$dom->loadHTML($content);….$content = mb_convert_encoding($content, 'HTML-ENTITIES', "UTF-8");Hope this helps somebody!
I had the same problem. The stat counter support people suggested hard-coding the stat counter code into the site. This would probably work but is certainly not an elegant solution.
I changed line 114 from
<form method="post" action="options-general.php?page=StatCounter-Wordpress-Plugin.php">
to
<form method="post" action="">
and it seems to have worked and applied the stat counter code to the footer … yet to see any reported stats though! 🙂Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [HC Text Widget] Editor iconsAny thoughts from anybody about this?
It would be good to see it working with WP 3.8.
That link to the screenshot should not have included the ‘)’ in it. The correct link is therefore: http://screencast.com/t/N9U6mgjjVUU
Thanks

In reply to: [S3Slider] S3Slider Suddenly Stopped WorkingI had a quick look at your site. The code is attempting to work and display the slides but the images are not loading because they seem not to exist. For instance, http://www.allaboutparkinglots.com/wp-content/plugins/s3slider-plugin/files/3_s.jpeg is not there.
Maybe it is saving the slides into a different folder? Or unable to save due to permission problems?

In reply to: [Transparent Image Watermark] Lots of warning messages and not watermarkedYou’re right! 🙂
I wasn’t changing the watermark as I just wanted to try it out with the default settings but clicking the “save changes” button obviously did some magic and it now works!
Many thanks for the quick and effective response!!

In reply to: [The Online Booking Calendar] Email addresses from/toAlso, the company name (and website title) contains an ampersand in it and it looks like wp-obs is using this for the “from name” in emails. However, the ampersand is not displaying correctly in the emails and you cannot simply reply to any email from the booking system.
How can I over-ride this and make wp-obs use a from name of my choice that is different to the site name?
Many thanks!

In reply to: [The Online Booking Calendar] Install error and/or plugin conflict?Ok, I now have this working. In case anybody else hits the same problems, what I found was:
1) The “Sorry, could not load your data, please try again later” problem was caused by a problem with the php/datafeed.php file. I fixed it by simply opening it, typing an extra (completely unnecessry) space in it and saving it again. I am guessing that the file format was a problem and “editing” it fixed it.
2) The “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘{‘ in /home/sitename/public_html/blogfolder/wp-content/plugins/the-online-booking-system/employee_allocation.php on line 1” error was fixed by applying the same technique to the employee-allocation.php file.
Note for both of the above, I did try completely removing the plugin and downloading a fresh version to see if the problem was with my PC but I got the same problem again so repeated the fix.
3) WP-OBS does not work with Fancybox-for-Wordpress (shame, I like that plugin). I have disabled the Fancybox plugin and am looking for a good alternative.
4) I also hit a problem with the booking link. I had added the booking link code snippet to a sidebar widget but this did not work as the link includes a shortcode and shortcodes normally don’t work in widgets. Therefore I added a little plugin to activate shortcodes in widgets and WP-OBS came to life.
It took a little longer than I had expected but it all seems to be working now.

In reply to: [The Online Booking Calendar] Install error and/or plugin conflict?All other plugins are deactivated too …. still getting the same problem. Could this be a WP 3.5.1 compatibility problem?
Any advice about how to find the source of this problem would be much appreciated. Thanks.

In reply to: [The Online Booking Calendar] Install error and/or plugin conflict?I tried deleting the plugin completely from the site including removing all wp_sm_* tables from the database and starting again without Fancybox-for-Wordpress activated but still have the same problem. 🙁

In reply to: Plugin: SimpleModal Contact Form (SMCF) 2nd email address?OK, thanks for getting back to me Eric.
In the meantime I have added a couple of radio buttons to the form and adapted the way that the “to” email address is assembled so that the bit before the “@” comes from the radio button and the bit after comes from the settings page. Not elegant!!! But it seems to work for now! 🙂
I look forward to a real solution sometime in the future.

In reply to: Plugin: SimpleModal Contact Form (SMCF) 2nd email address?Hi Eric, Many thanks for getting back to me. No they are not registered on the blog at the moment … but i could easily set them up so that they are registered if that makes things simpler …
