Hello, Thanks for the plugin but i have an issue i was hoping you could help me with. when you add caption to the image, the image disappears?

How can that be fixed.

Thanks for writing this plugin. I’m seeing some strange behavior on my site that I can’t figure out. You can see here that excerpts on the first two posts are working correctly, but the third seems to be taking a blockquote from the middle of my post as the excerpt.

This is probably unrelated to your plugin, but thought you might have some insight.

Thanks.

Yes, in fact, version 3.1 was released this week. If you just installed the plugin and it’s not working, make sure the settings (Settings -> Excerpt) are applied.

Doesn’t do anything in WP2.9

Are you still updating this plugin?

All of a sudden today your plugin is shoving my right sidebar down to the bottom of the home page and causing the text in the right sidebar to be bold. I think it asked me for an upgrade today when I logged in and I did the upgrade. I know its your plugin causing the problem because I deactivated it and everything was fine. I’m using Hostgator to host my site. Any idea when you might be fixing this please?

PS I’ve been using your plugin for quite a while and it has always worked perfectly. Thank you.

Is there a way to filter out code inserted by other shortcodes – particularly the junk inserted by WP’s insert gallery option? I only just realized this was a problem because most of my posts have enough text before a gallery entry that it is not a problem. I am pretty sure this is impossible, but I just thought I would ask

typical code that it inserts is:

#gallery-1 {
margin: auto;
}

#gallery-1 .gallery-item {
float: left;
margin-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
width: 33%; }
#gallery-1 img {

border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;
}
#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {
margin-left: 0;
}

I’m using the theme multiflex 5.2 (to match my main site) and haven’t been able to get any sort of post summary happening – It was with great hope that I installed your plug-in, but alas… no go. The index page does have

and I would have thought the plug-in hooked ‘the_excerpt()’ but it doesn’t seem to.
Help please!

Great plug-in! Thanks!

Anyway, I’m having a problem with it in that I have an image with caption right at the beginning of the post. Displaying the excerpt using your plug-in also displays the caption + br tag.

Could you maybe fix this so that the caption is not included in the excerpt?

Cheers!!
