hi cosmin, not sure what you meant with that last comment… is that for the site im working on or here in your support forum?

—
in regard to the pp code, i *did* add it to the text editor and it works fine until i go back into the page builder to make an edit (or if my client is going in to make an edit). they dont use the text editor, just the visual one, and every time they make an edit the code is changed and the button goes dead. i need to be able to make edits and not reinsert the code for paypal everytime that i do.

should i be using the plugin laranz sent over? i have tried just about everything else.

thanks,
emily

did you see the link i sent you to (top of page)? you can see there that the link isnt working. alternately, is it possible to use the button shortcode for a paypal link? that would solve all of this—the trouble is that i can only enter a url and paypal generates a form.

is there another way to get paypal to work? im getting quite frustrated. i thought integrating paypal was supposed to be easy with this theme.

thanks,
emily

i suppose. that’s the code that replaces the original code if i go in to make an edit. what i got is what i sent too you. what is causing this?

just want to add something to this… when the link goes dead, i’ve noticed that the code is different from what i put in initially (see above). this is what it becomes:

<input type=”hidden” name=”cmd” value=”_s-xclick” /> <input type=”hidden” name=”hosted_button_id” value=”BJX2LWXJZ4F7C” />
<input type=”image” alt=”PayPal – The safer, easier way to pay online!” name=”submit” src=”http://artsworcester.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/artist_member.png&#8221; />

i have no idea why this has changed, but i imagine its somehow related to why the link no longer works.

thanks.

i did just what you said:

created a new text widget in swift builder and pasted the code from paypal (inside the text editor) and the link is still not working. that, and now there is a big space between the text and the button which i dont like.

could something else be preventing the paypal code from working? see here

thanks,

hi laranz,

the code works when its not used in the swift page builder, see here

i pasted that same code into the text editor within the swift page builder and the link is just dead.

if i use the classic editor (text view) and add the code, it will work, but only temporarily. if i go back into that page to make an edit (either in the swiftpage builder or using the classic editor) the code changes and the link goes dead.

i know its not good to bounce back and forth between the swiftpage builder and the classic editor, i’ve only been doing this to try and troubleshoot this problem.

here’s the code im using from paypal:
<form action=”https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr&#8221; method=”post”> <input name=”cmd” type=”hidden” value=”_s-xclick” /> <input name=”hosted_button_id” type=”hidden” value=”BJX2LWXJZ4F7C” />    <br /><input alt=”PayPal – The safer, easier way to pay online!” name=”submit” src=”https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donate_SM.gif&#8221; type=”image” /> </form><form action=”https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr&#8221; method=”post”><br /></form>

any ideas?

thanks, emily

hi laranz,

can you answer my earlier question (#2 above)?

i’ve removed the padding around the logo, but when i make the browser window smaller i lose that fix. the logo becomes much smaller and there is space below the logo.

i tried the fix that cosmin sent over but it didnt work.

thanks,
emily

hi cosmin,

not sure if i’m doing this right…

this is the code i’ve been using:

nav .menu li {
padding: 0px 0;
}

i tried putting that where you suggest in a few different ways (with/without the braces etc) and nothing worked. am i missing something?

thanks,
emily

hi there,

just did the update to 1.5 and my filter is still not working. would ya mind taking another look? page is here, password is doodle.

thanks!
emily

[design_agency]

thanks,

hi cosmin,

1. i get that, however, even on rollover the effect goes away. it’s a fun element and it feels like something is missing when in some parts of the site the bar is there on rollover and on others its not. is there any way to correct this?

2. yes, when the browser is resized between about 750 and 1200px. you can see for yourself here, password is doodle.

thanks, emily

[design_agency]

scratch that!

found my answer in the documentation… sorry to bother.

ed,

we’re in tip-top shape, thanks for taking the time to help with these little details. they make all the difference!

cheers,

hey cosmin,

im still having trouble with both of these issues.

#2. i downloaded PoEdit and opened up “en_US.po” however i am unable to translate anything. i’ve never used PoEdit before so its entirely possible that im missing something, however i did try just about everything. im attaching a screen shot so you can see what i saw and to be sure that im looking at the right thing.

#3. i removed the old CSS and popped in the new that you sent along, however, yet again, they are not alinging. i can let this one go if its proving to be too much of a pain.

thanks again for your help,
emily

hi cosmin,

thanks so much for these answers! #1 and #4 are taken care of.

with #2, im a bit confused. i read the link you sent over, however, im not interested in translating into a different language, i simply want to change the text used in the demo site. do i still need to go through the translation process in order to do that?

#3, i added the css you sent over, but it did not budge the image. you mention removing the post thumbnail, which i also did, however that seems to only have removed the image from the blog landing page. i would like to have that image there, along with one in the post. have i missed something?

again, thanks!
emily
