Re: How can I see the error file?

I replied to your post in 'plugins'

If indeed it is the plugin that is throwing the error then just remove it. All the files are in bl-plugins/addCode2Page

If you can't access admin then just delete the plugin folder with FTP.

If the plugin is causing a problem then I would appreciate any more ...

Re: addCode2Page: random quote

as the author I am sorry to hear you are having issues.

>> updated the plugin from the archive
There have been no updates. Do you mean you activated the plugin? For the first time? Or did you add a snippet? The 'random quote' snippet? Other? As much detail on just what you did can help refine the ...

Re: manually restore backup to the same domain

>> I managed to solve it!
Was that using the code? or what?

And I wonder if you have any clearer sense of the cause?

Re: manually restore backup to the same domain

It is always a guess to know how much to assume regarding anyone's code experience.

I presume you have FTP access?
Create a local file - say 'newPages.php' and add the code to it. Perhaps create a .txt file and later rename it?
upload that file to yourdirectory. You mentioned a subdomain? Upload to ...

Re: manually restore backup to the same domain

hi Lodria,

A kids project – I am happy to support that.

Assuming that your page index.txt files are in order you can use this script to rebuild pages.php
<?php
$pagesDir = __DIR__ . '/bl-content/pages';
$outputFile = __DIR__ . '/bl-content/databases/pages.php';
$pages = [];

foreach (scandir ...

Re: manually restore backup to the same domain

Hi,
I am curious to know if you found any cause for the page.php corruption – or any sense of how the general 'mess' happened; it might be useful in future context ... as in "be sure not to... " or some such.

I haven't given it a great deal of thought but figure it would be easy enough to write a ...

upgrade menu config

A good friend, who is using H.A.M., chided me over my intro above: "[extra years] can be fairly easily increased with a bit of code tweaking." and asked if it was so easy why was it not a built in option? So, here are three additional config. options...

@koroner

>> it breaks the session and kicks me back to the login screen.
Are you going through your plugin plugin.php file? – via: public function adminController()
Let me know if you need some clarification on this.

AJAX is certainly an approach but needs to be set up correctly. Have a read of my ...

Re: Multimenu plugin - how to implement

I wonder if you are getting the menu built and saved? There are a few buttons that need to be clicked.
Give the menu a name.
Edit Items – be sure to click '+ Add' and then 'save'. The item should appear at bottom.
Go 'Back to List' and copy the shortcode; eg. <?php multiMenu("testMulti"); ?> where ...

new: Horizontal Archive Menu

As posts build up they fall off the bottom of the main page and into pagination – you get a numbered link. The plugin builds a horizontal menu divided into years, with optional months as a sub-menu, providing a top level view of all posts (not static or sticky) – by title. New posts are ...
