Plugin not working on Photo Description

unaghi

Hi!
I've installed "WordPress Social Ring" plugin on my website and it works fine on all pages, as you can see here:
http://www.bluebirdshoes.com.br/a-marca/
This plugin works thought a shortcode that I paste on the page's content field. The shortcode is [socialring]
But when I try to insert the same sort code inside the Photo Description field of an album it doesn't work...
I've also tried to insert other codes or tags inside the Photo Description field but they don't work as well.
Any clues why that happens?
Thank you very much for your attention!

Hello

It happens cause only RAW text is accepted there. It would require few changes to make it work, like in JavaScript files, PHP and CSS probably. It looks like some bigger modification. And even after this there is possibility it won't work cause of JavaScript manipulations. Can you live without it? :-)

With regards.

Hi! Thanks for your reply. I understand the challenges, but I do need this to work. Social sharing is crucial to my business, so it's can't live without it. It's a pity I've just noticed now this RAW text issue. Might need to search for another theme then...

Our other theme "Hypershot" is better in this case. However before you spend more money you can try this solution: http://support.apollo13.eu/discussion/comment/8831#Comment_8831

Thanks again. I've tried to change the code as shown in the solution in the link abovem but unfortunately nothing happens here... The images won't show... not even when I hit the back button...

Try also doing this change in advnace/cpt_album.php line ~282, change this:

'desc'              => $desc,

to

'desc'              => do_shortcode($desc),

This should fire shortcode.

With regards.

Thank you very much for your kind attention, but it doesn't work... I'll talk to the clients. See what they want to do.

Maybe it almost work. If you added this above code, and you have made change that inserts .html() in JS file that we should be close. Do you have live link where changes could be seen?

With regards.

Hi! I believe I've done all that is described above and also on the solution from that other post, changing the files: cpt_album.php and supersized.apollo.js. The change should appear in the albums' photo descriptions, right?

Switch to uncompressed scripts if you want to see any chnges that you made:-) http://apollo13.eu/docs/spaceship/#!/advance_menu_use_compressed_js_amp_css

I appreciate all your effort in trying to help me out with this, but it won't work... The buttons don't appear when the page loads. Only when I hit the back button in the photo album. Besides, it changes the position of the social media icons in the menu...

Have you followed topic I linked you till end? Cause this topic was posted at same time as yours so we developed solution there:-)

With regards.

Thanks a lot! Works now. That's great. One thing though: when I hit Pinterest's button it selects the photo on screen. But when I hit Facebook's button it selects the whole album and I'm not able to share the photo I want. I saw that the same thing happens with http://www.tracyafitzgerald.com. The difference is that on http://www.tracyafitzgerald.com I can select the thumbnail when posting it on Facebook. Any clues on how to solve that? Thanks again!

Air

Sorry but I don't. You could ask in topic in which you found solution. Maybe author of this whole solution will have some tips for you :-)

With regards.

I'll do that. Thanks again for all your attention! Bought you a latte with donut.

Air

Haha, thanks a lot:-)
