Hi Richard,

Sorry for the delay. Somehow missed this since this was replied as a part of another topic.

I tried your RSS feed and I see that the RSS feed source is prohibiting the images from being displayed on another site. We can see error 403 (which is prohibited).

If you are not owner then I’m not sure if there is any hack to overcome this since this is beyond the plugin’s scope. I’ll see if I can come up with something.

If you are the owner of the website can you please check if there are any misconfiguration/restrictions?

Thanks,
Aakash

Hi Daphne,

Sure I can help. Can you please share your website URL? I would like to inspect the site live and understand the CSS.

Thanks,

Great to hear!

Hi Richard,

Thanks for using Super RSS Reader. Could you please share the RSS feed URL for which no thumbnail is shown?

Thanks,
Aakash

Hi Daniel,

There shouldn’t be any slowness because of this MOD.
The thumbnail URL is cached in the DB for 1 week when it is forced to pick from the original website.

So the first page load may be slow and upcoming requests will be fast since the thumbnail is cached but will never bring down the entire site.
I tried it on my local site and loaded feed items from the same URL. Screenshot below.

Can you please confirm if this is seen consistently?

Thanks,

Hi Daniel,

Can you please confirm if you have enabled “Fetch thumbnail from page directly” option to “Always” in the widget form?

If you are using the shortcode, then you need to set thumbnail_force="always".

Hi Laure,

Thanks for using WP Socializer. It seems you are using WP Rocket plugin with CSS minification enabled. Could you please exclude WP Socializer’s CSS file from it’s minification list?

As of now, certain CSS styles are no included by WP Rocket as a part of the minification hence the icon size is not changing.

Thanks,

Hi Mandeep,

I have sent an email with a solution for this issue. Please do check and let me know on the same.

Hi Said,

We can achieve a similar output using the shortcode below.

[srr_feed urls="http://www.theverge.com/android/rss/index.xml" tab_titles="Android" color_style="card" show_author=1 show_date=1 display_type=grid template="%%thumbnail%% %%title%% %%description%% %%metadata%%" grid_columns=3 show_author=0 thumbnail_position=cover thumbnail_size="128px"]

Please note that with this shortcode, the feed item layout is organized as per the screenshot. To exactly imitate that, we need to use the CSS below.

Please feel free to modify this CSS as per your requirement.

.srr-style-card .srr-thumb.srr-thumb-cover {
    float: none;
    width: 100% !important;
    border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0;
    position: absolute;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    top: 0;
}

.srr-style-card .srr-item-in {
    position: relative;
    padding-top: 150px !important;
}

Thanks,
Aakash

Hi Sean,

This looks like a behavior not handled. I’ll fix this in the next version.

For now can you make the change below in the plugin editor?

1) Go to plugin editor
2) Select File ultimate-floating-widgets-pro/public/js/script.js
3) Add below code at line no. 151

do_auto_close_time($wrap, 'start');

4) Save file.
5) Delete/refresh page cache (ctrl+shift+f5)
6) Popup will now close after x seconds when opened by scroll.

Thanks,
Aakash

Hi Sean,

You can keep the widget box’s “Initial state” to “closed” and use the javascript API to open the widget box as per your requirement.

Please follow the doc below on “custom trigger”.

Hi Sean,

I’m checking this issue. I’ll update you after reproducing the issue.

Hi Vince,

I understand the requirement. But such functionality is not available/possible with the plugin. The ability to pull custom field value is designed for very simple usecases.

Anything beyond that would involve complexity for most users like delimiter, formatting, HTML etc., 🙂

Hence I would suggest advanced users write a small shortcode using PHP with full control over the output.

Below are some docs related to that.

Fetching custom field value:

get_post_meta()

Hi Aj,

Thanks for using Shortcoder. Since shortcoder plugin is designed to create “shortcodes” for huge text/HTML/script/CSS there is no option to provide dynamic content.

The reason is that, allowing such functionality is basically creating a programming system. Advanced users can create a shortcode manually using PHP with such logic.
