Tried using Inline Editor with WPML. If i edit the main language inline it loses the connection to other languages. If I edit any other language inline it becomes listed as a main language page.
thank you for the “Inline Editor”. I’m a experienced photographer but an absolute beginner with WP. I’m trying to build my workshops website (www.creativephotomind.com) with WP but with “Sliding door” theme the Inline Editor doesn’t work. Maybe because I’m a clumsy, but after I save the changes, everything remains like before…
Another question: do you know wich plugin could allow my WP website to be find by Google search engine?
Thank You!
Have a good day

Hi I’m using inline editor on a friends website
I’m trying to make it seo friendly, which means I need external javascript files.
I’ve noticed that your plugin posts some javascript on my page. I can see this when I right click and view the source in my browser.
/* */
This doesn’t happen on my artygirl.co.uk website though?
Is there a way of easily solving this issue?
Regards
Judi
I am trying to use your plugin, but I do not know where its functionality shows up. My blog is in UTF-8.
When I go to “Visit Site” nothing comes up. I also looked at all the items in the menu, and it is not there either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How can i allow “Author” or “Editor” to edit inline from the front end?
You need to ensure that your ‘Author’ or ‘Editor’ roles have permission to edit post and edit pages.
For more information on Wordpress Role and Capabilities visit here:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities
At the bottom of this page there are links to plugins that allow you to change the capabilities of your users.
My site’s “Authors” have ability to add posts. So they have capabilities to edit their own posts as per WP capabilities.
But somehow the “Edit” button of “inline editor” doesn’t appear on their submitted post when they are logged in .
It only appears when admin is logged in.
BTW, the WP “edit post” link does appear correctly for posts submitted by it’s “Author” which means the Author’s capabilities are correct.
Could this be a bug of Inline Editor? Hope you could run a quick check. Thanks.
This is not a bug, currently the Inline Editor only gives frontend editing to users that can edit any posts and pages.
UPDATE: As of version 0.7.5, Inline Editor checks the capabilities of the individual user that’s logged in, download it here or get the upgrade via your dashboard.
thanks for the plugin. everything is fine but, after editing inline, i find only ‘cancel editing’ button and there is no ’save editing’ button. am i missing something?
sorry.. my previous comment was in haste. the save function is there in the tool bar.. thanks again.
If there are enough requests we can add an additional save button to the bottom of the edit box.
Im glad i found you!!!! i’ll test this now
Love the idea for this plugin, but have not been able to implement successfully with my iThemes Flexx theme. Everything installs beautifully and I can see the edit button on my page view. Clicking on the edit button brings up a sharp looking editing toolbar, but I’m never actually able to access or edit text on my site. Clicking or double clicking on areas that look editable simply brings up another incidence of the toolbar.
Would love to have this working. Any suggestions?
Best,
Karl
We’re happy to fix bugs when it comes to compatibility issues with other free plugin and themes, but the iThemes Flexx theme is a premium theme.
However we will create customised versions for specific Wordpress installations, please contact us for a quote.
hi guys! i think your plug in is very useful but i got this message on the top of my website juste after installing it

You have your PHP errors switched on, I have made a small update and emailed it to you. For everyone else the version of Inline Editor on Wordpress.org includes this update.
Thank you for this AWESOME plug-in. Brilliant!
One thing I’ve noticed… When I try to edit a page that has a script in the content, inline editor won’t let me edit it.
Instead it just pulls up a page that shows me the result of that script… Does that make sense?
Ohhh… I’d love a “save” button at the bottom, too!
But really, thanks so much for a brilliant plug-in!

Are you referring to javascript or PHP?
Hi, excellent plugin! I’ve tried other inline editors, and even worked with the author of Front-End Editor a bit to try to get some of the functionality you’ve got out of the box. This one seems to be the best–in-class so far. I’ve a couple of comments for you though.
The first is about the popup telling you that the content has been saved. Since this is a front-end editing plugin, it naturally follows that we can see the changes as soon as they’re applied. So having an additional popup telling us that the plugin has done what we can clearly see has been done isn’t necessary, and the added click is annoying
Second, the biggest problem I’ve noticed with HTML editors is indents, both for paragraphs and for lists. Adding an indent feature to let us adjust where things have gone bad would be a great help.
Lastly, I noticed an immediate conflict with the Ajaxed Wordpress plugin (v1.28 latest) by Aaron Harun. I was testing the Embed Child Pages function (http://ajaxedwp.com/forum/awp-documentation/how-do-i-embed-a-wordpress-pages-child-pages/) and this editor kills that feature entirely.
Many thanks for the suggestions. We will look into the conflict you mention with the Ajax Wordpress plugin.
How can I restore a post that I deleted with Inline Editor?
You should be able to use Wordpress’s own revision system to restore previous posts.
Hi, Thanks for the plugin that will be very helpful if I can figure out this one problem. When I edit the text and save (update), it changes the CSS formatting as in adding extra spaces above/below paragraphs, (what I call blowing-out) the formatting.
Is there a way to fix this issue?
Thank you very muchg for your time!
~Jana
We will look into this issue for the next release. Many thanks for contacting us.
its cool but it needs to edit title an tags it would be good if you could combinet with “one quick post plugin”
This will be feature that we will be working on, as soon as we have some time.
