@ Axel

Yes, technically possible bu it would require custom PHP coding the template to add the feature. There is no point and click option to enable this, sorry.

@ modus

I’ll need either the email address that you used to make the purchase or your Pro Pack license key to be able to look up your account.

re: IN this day in age why can’t you put the serial key into the settings, and then enable automatic upgrades, like every other plugin manages to do?

That is exactly how it works. I see you have activated your licenses on http://gotoscotia.com/. I am not exactly sure what the issue is. If you have a valid license entered and is not expired (which yours are are not expired) you’ll receive in admin updates like all other plugins.

re: So now we have to go out to your site, login, download a new plugin and update them manually. This is so ass backwards.

As mentioned in my previous answer with a valid and active support license you will receive in admin updates, just like all other plugins.

Obviously there is some confusion here which I can help with and address…

I guess my first question is what makes you believe there are no in admin updates? If there was something in the documentation that lead you to believe this, can you point it out so I can review it and try to make it more clear.

There’s only one thing that I see that could be an issue, you activated your support licenses key on http://gotoscotia.com/

but, when I visit the site it redirects to http://www.gotoscotia.com/. My guess is you may have changed your site settings in between activation and now to include the www. This, I believe would count as a different site and then you would not be able to update because the sites do not match.

If this is causing an update issue for you, then you need to deactivate the license and activate it again using the www address. Follow the “License Activated on Another Site” section in this FAQ to do this.

Hope this helps, let me know.

I finally gad the opportunity to finish this up. I ended up updating the original tutorial on how to register a text field with the code examples need to import and export a custom field.

Hope this helps and apologies for how long it took!

yeah… that’s not going to work.

The checkboxgroup field type is saved as a JSON encoded array in the database. Basically this means unless none of the options were checked the field saved in a way that is not possible to use meta_query. When no options are checked, nothing is saved except an empty value for the meta key.

The meta query you’re using will not work because it is basically selecting all entries which have the field_id_membership-cat ID that does not equal the value of supervisor. So the result would be all entries where you selected any of the options in the checkbox group because all entries where you have selected more than one option will always not be equal to “superviser”.

To make this work…

First, you need to register each option in your current checkboxgroup as an individual checkbox. They can all be added to the same metabox. You would just add the four checkboxes to the same fields array.

The meta query could also be simpler … I think. Honestly, I use it so infrequent that it takes me few attempts to get it right. But I think this is what you would use.

`meta_query='{“meta_key”:”field_id-supervisor”,”meta_value”:”1″}’

The above meta query assumes a checkbox field with the field ID of field_id-supervisor and will display all entries with that checkbox selected.

Hope that helps!

ps. I do offer custom development if you find this not in your “wheelhouse”. If you are interested in this, please contact me using the Contact link at the very bottom of the page for a quote.

@ Robert

Sorry, no, it is not possible is integrate with the core WP search. It is specifically code to search the site’s pages and posts and there is no way to hook into it to do custom searches which are required to search the directory.

@ Christine

Great to hear!

@ Christine

This very, very likely a caching issue… just about always is.

If the theme has a cache, clear it.
If you are using a page caching plugin, flush your page cache.
If you are using server page caching, flush the cache.
Force refresh your browsers.

What is the folder and file name?

You said you placed the folder/file in several locations. Did you put them in all locations or simply move them from one folder to another? You only need to have it in the child theme or one of the others.

The only thing I can say for certain… the css I gave is not being applied, even even loaded.

Oh… just noticed that the /themes/Divi-Child/connections-templates/excerpt-plus/excerpt-plus-custom.css file is being loaded so that is just fine. But, the CSS I gave you, it is not in the file. I suggest checking the file and making sure it there. I suspect you made the change, it got cached on your laptop, but then somehow reverted so you see the cached version while everyone else is seeing the version without the white CSS statement.

Hope that helps!

@ Steve

Great to hear. Out of curiosity, who is the host. I’d like to make note of it so if someone else runs in the same issue I can ask them who their host is and point them to this thread to help them get cURL enabled for them too.

@ Phil

Welp, I never seen such a thing. Sounds links you trying to remove a link as part of the “right to be forgotten” and not in the Google Webmaster Tools. Perhaps they changed things. I’ve attached a screenshot of the page where you should add it. Is this the page where you have input the URL to be removed?

You can also use the robot.txt file to remove a URL. To learn more about them see this page:

https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6062608

This page explains how to block a specific URL:

https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6062596

This should do it…

User-agent: *
Disallow: /name/montaro-ellis

You can test the robots.txt file on this page:

https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6062598

All this said … I just added code that runs very early while WordPress is loading. It check for an entry slug (‘/name/entry-slug/’) if it is not found, then it’ll trigger a 404. So, after that update is released and installed on your site, when Google crawls the page next (if you do not use robots.txt) they’ll get a 404 response and eventually remove it from their index.
