Im using magazine theme and awpcp classifieds. Everything was working fine today and when I came home from school tonight I found that classifieds was replicating over my header as was my contributors plugin.
I searched a solution and found one that said place this code:
In the header replacing this code:
However, I can’t find the later code.
I wonder what would cause this. I changed my permalink structure yesterday, but visited the site several times since and everything was working.
I especially checked classifieds for functionality cause I ran into this issue before, and had to completely reinstall wordpress.
Tim, awpcp matters are handled via awpcp.com, and it looks as if you are using a different magazine theme; but if it helps, the likely issue is that either something in your theme, or a plugin you are using for SEO purposes, is using the excerpt for the pages somewhere in your header. The classifieds and the contributors plugin are not affecting each other. In other words, one is not causing the other to display itself at the top of the page. The pages use shortcode for content so when the code in your header executes for these pages it renders the shortcode content.
From a quick check of your source code the reference appears to be above “<meta name="title"". I don't know if that's hardcoded in your header.php file or if it's coming from one of your SEO plugins.
In your case, you will need to also exclude the ID of your contributors page so you would need to do something like
Thanks, very insightful and I will bookmark this page.
I have re-uploaded wordpress and reinstalled all plugins. I was not that far along and only had a few post. For some reason the link to classifieds took me to your page.
I am having problems resizing my Feature content image. I want to increase the size of the image displayed to 250px but it refuses to change via the index.php. Also, the images are getting somewhat pixelated regardless of how i resize them (larger or smaller). Also it crops in the wrong way by chopping off the top parts of the displayed image. Any advice on how to rectify this will be really appreciated. Thanks
Hey thanks for your help, but when I created a flickr account and tried to do a test picture, I get this response where the thumbnail should be generated:
In the images folder there are not any cache folders. Could this be a problem? Do I have to use the media uploader provided by WordPress? I have directory access and just usually place the pictures in the directory where I need them.
The cropped images are created based on the images that are attached to your posts. They are cached in folders that are created inside the wp-content/uploads directory and the image is displayed based on the URL to the cropped file.
Okay – I think see what you are saying – but when i check my directory, I don’t see any subfolders in my uploads folder. How do I fix that – when I add pictures I don’t use the uploader I use the link by URL. Could this be the reason? Thanks again – I know this can be annoying, but I love your site design and I want to make it work.
You can create the folders manually and make sure they have accessible permissions. Which theme are you using? Let me know so that I can tell you the exact folder names you need to create
jmblan78, sorry for taking so long to get back to you. The folders you need:
wp-content/uploads/antisnews-cache-thumbs
wp-content/uploads/antisnews-cache-thumbs/temp
wp-content/uploads/antisnews-cache-thumbs/thumb-temp
So I can I just create these folders and place the pics I want to use in these folders with using the WordPress uploader? Or does the uploader create these thumbs? hey, whenever you can get back to me is a plus – you are my only hope!
So how does the cropper choose which pictures to post? I guess I am confused, but I had my tech guys remove some restrictions on those folders. I guess – could you walk me through the process.
I have just finished my blog post. I want to add a picture to the post that will also generate as a thumbnail on the main blog page. How do I put the picture on there? I am almost there!!
Just a quick note to thank you for helping me with my theme problem. I e-mailed my distress and within hours I had a helpful response. Your turn-around time was simply amazing!
Thanks for all the great themes you provide but also thanks for not hiding out after you give them to us and having a little patience with us ‘idiots’ (I’m speaking only of myself everyone!)… You guys are the best!

Tim, awpcp matters are handled via awpcp.com, and it looks as if you are using a different magazine theme; but if it helps, the likely issue is that either something in your theme, or a plugin you are using for SEO purposes, is using the excerpt for the pages somewhere in your header. The classifieds and the contributors plugin are not affecting each other. In other words, one is not causing the other to display itself at the top of the page. The pages use shortcode for content so when the code in your header executes for these pages it renders the shortcode content.
You need to find the code in your header file that is referencing the page excerpt and follow the instructions at http://www.awpcp.com/classifieds-repeating-itself-at-the-top-of-your-page/ to fix the problem.
From a quick check of your source code the reference appears to be above “<meta name="title"". I don't know if that's hardcoded in your header.php file or if it's coming from one of your SEO plugins.
In your case, you will need to also exclude the ID of your contributors page so you would need to do something like
< ?php if( (!is_page(xxx)) && (!is_page(yyy)) ) {the_excerpt();} ?>xxx and yyy represent the IDs of the classified page and your contributor’s page.
You could also try adding some text above the shortcode in each page so that the text gets used by the header and not the shortcode.

Well, thanks anyway

Hi, I am looking to remove log in of the footer area and cant seem to find any reference can you advise please?

<li><?php wp_register(); ?></li>
<li><?php wp_loginout(); ?></li>
Hello,
I just wanted to know how to disable “interesting sites” section on the left side? Do you have help file or forum to support?
I look forward to your support.
Thanks,
Ajish
ajish, go to appearance and click on widgets and add your widgets to sidebar narrow and your widgets will replace the default widgets being used
See you options for entering my RSS feedburner but do not see where the button appears on the theme. Please advise.
thanks

Can you guys help me out?
Hey thanks for your help, but when I created a flickr account and tried to do a test picture, I get this response where the thumbnail should be generated:
local file for http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4136/4742748181_e30e1d7253.jpg can not be created
Any ideas? And where is this accepted sites list? Thanks a bunch if you can help.
Also, any ideas on how to hide/customize the h2 headers?? It says you can in the tutorial, but I can’t seem to find it. Thanks again.
Please make sure the folders for the cached images exist and have accessible permissions
In the images folder there are not any cache folders. Could this be a problem? Do I have to use the media uploader provided by WordPress? I have directory access and just usually place the pictures in the directory where I need them.
Thx
The cropped images are created based on the images that are attached to your posts. They are cached in folders that are created inside the wp-content/uploads directory and the image is displayed based on the URL to the cropped file.

Hey thanks a bunch. I am using antisnews. Here is the website – http://www.bardstownschools.us/bhs.
jmblan78, sorry for taking so long to get back to you. The folders you need:
wp-content/uploads/antisnews-cache-thumbs
wp-content/uploads/antisnews-cache-thumbs/temp
wp-content/uploads/antisnews-cache-thumbs/thumb-temp
So I can I just create these folders and place the pics I want to use in these folders with using the WordPress uploader? Or does the uploader create these thumbs? hey, whenever you can get back to me is a plus – you are my only hope!
Okay, I created those folders – which folder would I drop my pics in?
You don’t need to do anything beyond that. As long as the folders are accessible by the cropper it does the rest.
So how does the cropper choose which pictures to post? I guess I am confused, but I had my tech guys remove some restrictions on those folders. I guess – could you walk me through the process.
I have just finished my blog post. I want to add a picture to the post that will also generate as a thumbnail on the main blog page. How do I put the picture on there? I am almost there!!
Is there any settings that I should change in WordPress itself? My default uploads folder, etc?
Just a quick note to thank you for helping me with my theme problem. I e-mailed my distress and within hours I had a helpful response. Your turn-around time was simply amazing!
