In reply to: How to access revisions?Just wanted to report back that the “problem” worked itself out. If there are no revisions stored, there is no reason to show the link (or screen option) for revisions. Once I’d actually made some revisions, the link appeared in the Publish meta box and Revisions became a Screen Option after all. Ah, resolution. Thanks.

I’ve ditched both Myspace and Facebook — they are a hot bed of narcissism and idiocy.
“look at me”
“look what I did”
“look what I got”
“look how much greater my life is than yours”
“look what my cat just did”
“look how much cuter my kid got since the last pic I posted 10 minutes ago”
“poor me, I’ll never find anyone”
“look what my cat did… again…you know, in case you missed it before”Not to mention being a viable soapbox for every brain-dead, chronic-know-nothing out there to sound off about politics, religion, and many other things they have no background in or common sense enough to be rambling on about in the first place.
You pretty much hit the nail on the head in terms of all this: let’s work on music rather than running around stroking each other’s egos. But well, you know, THAT would be considered weird. 🙂

In reply to: [Reverberation] [Plugin: Reverberation] Press Widget SupportYes, that would be pretty sweet! There’s so many CMS/blog/etc platforms, it would probably be a full-time job to achieve that, so we’ll probably always be on our own.
I still have a RN page with thousands of fans, but I’ve given up on the site — too many people just fanning up back and forth and skewing everyone elses stats while they game their own numbers. It’s just like MP3.com back in the day.

In reply to: [Reverberation] [Plugin: Reverberation] Admin Display SerttingsYou’re right about the true/false in the docs; I checked the docs right after I found your post and they have been corrected to reflect the 1/0 instead — thanks for pointing this out. It was a mid-way design change that didn’t make it into the docs (until now) — good eye!

In reply to: [Reverberation] [Plugin: Reverberation] Press Widget SupportI’m quite a few projects down the line, but if I recall, I also had an issue with that RN press widget. I’m thinking there wasn’t an HTML5 version at the time I released the plugin. Glad you have a workaround for the meantime. 🙂

In reply to: [Reverberation] [Plugin: Reverberation] Press Widget SupportThe entity that paid for the work was very gracious to allow me to release the plugin as GPL so that others might benefit, but it’s not likely that I’ll continue work on it in my free time given the fairly low adoption rate of the plugin.

In reply to: [Reverberation] [Plugin: Reverberation] Admin Display SerttingsThere are no “extra” settings to the plugin — all settings are controlled via the shortcodes and the Visual Editor dialogue.
The decision to use 1/0 over true/false was simply for brevity — both on the shortcode side as well as under the hood; just keeping the shortcode (and underlying logic) as succinct as possible.
Thanks for posting back that you’d worked out the solution.

In reply to: [Reverberation] [Plugin: Reverberation] ReverbNation plugin for WordPress 3.4Just one more thing, in case you didn’t realize…
You can use your own RN Artist ID for the posted_by attribute. The “909491” number is my RN ID simply to have a valid argument included.
It’s no problem if you want to continue using 909491, but if so, keep in mind that you can just leave out the whole posted_by=”909491″ since, if this attribute is not in the shortcode, it will automatically use this as default for you. Not a big deal, but it will help to make your shortcodes a bit, well, shorter. 🙂

In reply to: [Reverberation] [Plugin: Reverberation] ReverbNation plugin for WordPress 3.4Thanks for bringing this to my attention; it looks like ReverbNation made a slight change in how they reference playlist IDs from our pages. See the link below for how to proceed. If you have any questions or want to hollaback that it worked, please use the other thread. Thanks again for mentioning this.

In reply to: Updated to 3.4.1 and custom post type pagination seems amiss…Did you change the POST_TYPE_GOES_HERE to your post type? If not, it won’t work. I haven’t tested it, but the broken pagination is what JohnnyNT’s example code aims to fix. I’m afraid there’s not much more I can add that hasn’t already been mentioned above.

In reply to: Updated to 3.4.1 and custom post type pagination seems amiss…Look at the showcase.php template in the TwentyEleven theme; it has a couple of places using a custom query (lines 50-60 and 164-180) They assign all the $args to an array and then pass that array into a new instantiation of the WP_Query object. The example above includes the raw arguments, but it’s essentially the same thing. You can use the code to create your own loop in any PHP file and then operate on that loop just like any other, for example:
$args = array('post_type'=>'POST_TYPE_GOES_HERE','paged'=>$paged); $paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; $loop = new WP_Query($args); if ($loop->have_posts()) : $loop->the_post(); // Do whatever you want with each iteration here. endif;Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Updated to 3.4.1 and custom post type pagination seems amiss…Use the code in any location where you are querying for posts.

In reply to: Updated to 3.4.1 and custom post type pagination seems amiss…Appreciate your posting this; I reverted everything back to 3.4 because it seems that many questions on the forum go unanswered, unresolved. Rooting out this fix was still about 2 weeks down my to-do list… well, it was. Thanks for helping me scratch it off the roster!

In reply to: [Reverberation] [Plugin: Reverberation] ReverbNation plugin for WordPress 3.4Hi, thanks for using the forum — and you’re welcome.
First thing would be to ensure that you have a valid Artist ID (aid) in your shortcode; does the exact same shortcode work on, say, a desktop computer?
Next, do all the onboard widget types fail for these devices, and are any error messages given in place of the widgets?
As a test, try using RN’s onsite widget builder and see if the result is the same on those devices. The plugin doesn’t do anything special really; it just translates a shortcode into the RN equivalent. I’m wondering if the RN builder-built widgets also fail on those devices?
As a last ditch effort, I’d try clearing the cache and firing up a fresh instance of the browser, just to see. You know, kind of like how we used to blow on the contacts of a Nintendo game to get it working better. Hey, you never know… 🙂
Other than these few meager suggestions, I can’t think of anything else at the moment. I hope it’s just a glitch and all of a sudden it automagically starts working like things on the net sometimes seem to.
Support for HTML5 audio is still in its infancy, relatively speaking, and all the quirks haven’t quite been worked out yet. As you might guess, 100%-consistent cross-platform streaming audio is quite the beast to slay.
Please let me know if you make any random discoveries that help you to get it working; I’ll be sure to include it in the docs. If not, I do appreciate your taking the plugin for a spin, but I’ll probably not be able to provide a solution and I’ll have to apologize now for getting your hopes up for the plugin.
