Responsive Header Plugin not working on Legacy

Thanks for the note. Man, I’ve tried everything and looked everywhere… set permissions, deactivated plugins, reloaded the plugin, took out the header-right text widget… and for the life of me I can’t figure out what the problem. Maybe it has something to do with permissions on their server but the only ones owned by “nobody” is uploads directory. If I knew what “upload” function in the plugin actually did, maybe I could fix the code. I don’t think it actually takes the image and puts it into the uploads folder, but perhaps if it does and the folder is owned by “nobody” maybe that is an issue? But I doubt it. Very strange. If you have any other clues for me to look at, please let me know.

Sure, I can wait. Actually I have no choice since I can’t get it to work on this other site. It is strange. I click the plugin’s upload button and it takes me to the media loader asking me to choose an image… standard WP stuff. The plugin substitues “I want this as a logo’ next to a button, but when pressed all I do is go back to the plugin’s page… nothing is uploaded. And yet the media uploader works fine when not using the plugin interface.

I spent part of the day reading the code of the plugin but without a strong foundation in WP’s functions and classes, it was no help… I didn’t see anything that jumped out at me.

I’m looking forward to whatever tutorial you come up with because I am not a big fan of WP plugins, but sometimes you gotta use ’em. (I found a nice slider this weekend called Soliloquy which I’m testing on our site (http://www.newmediawebsitedesign.com) with Optimal… has a number of features that I wish the Genesis Responsive Slider plugin had.)

Please post here when the tutorial is done so I will be alerted.

Thanks again.

SOLVED!

Who is the dumbest web guy on the planet? I’m raising my hand here! Nick wrote me and said to simply paste in the URL of the logo-graphic (from Media Lib) and click “save.” Worked just fine. I never would have thought about bypassing the WP Thickbox media loader logic. I figured that it did something special to the graphic. It doesn’t. It just finds the URL… which anyone can get from the Media Library!

Man, am I stupid or what?

(Oh, he said the issue might be a javascript conflict between his plugin and the theme.)

Thanks, Nick. You da man!! (And I’m the idiot!)

I don’t know what issue he is referring to. When I asked him to explain he just said quote: “It could also be something added to the theme.” I don’t know how that relates to javascript or maybe he meant that there is something else in the theme that was causing the problem. I didn’t follow up on it since his workaround was effective.
