1. What version should I use?
The exec-php plugin, a bit outdated since WP version 2.5, doesn’t work for everyone as it seems. Many people are having problems with the execution of the php code meaning all they get is a blank page when clicking on an open slot. Why this for some work and for others doesn’t? I really don’t know. I experimented with two (same version) WordPress installations and one of them works as a charm while the other refuses.
I decided to make a second version of the Entrecard AdManager installation file which doesn’t make use of the exec-php plugin but with the phpinclusion plugin. Strangely enough, this version worked on the other WP installation but not on the first WP installation. Therefor I suggest trying both if one of them fails.
2. How to enable the Payment API?
This can be done at your Entrecard Dashboard. After enabling you will instantly get your seller id and your seller secret.
3. The ‘Entrecard Ad’ pages are empty - what now and how to avoid?
For use with the exec-php plugin:
Most likely you got curious and wanted to see what is written in those pages. Well, it is actually one line of php code that can be destroyed when using the Visual Editor. Exec-PHP gives a warning for doing so:
This doesn’t mean you have to disable the Visual Editor, only if you are going to mess around with posts or pages which include php-code. And as the pages for the plugin are generated automatically you shouldn’t worry at all. If you are annoyed with the warning, by the way - you can turn that off too.
If however, the damage has been done you can either re-install the plugin or simply follow these short steps:
- Turn off Visual Editor (in your user profile);
- Insert into the respective page the linked code:
For the page Entrecard Ad:
<?php include_once(WP_PLUGIN_DIR.’/ECadmanager/pagesell.inc’); ?>For the page E-A Cancel:
<?php include_once(WP_PLUGIN_DIR.’/ECadmanager/pagecancel.inc’); ?>For the page E-A Notify:
<?php include_once(WP_PLUGIN_DIR.’/ECadmanager/pagenotify.inc’); ?>For the page E-A Success:
<?php include_once(WP_PLUGIN_DIR.’/ECadmanager/pagesuccess.inc’); ?> - Save Page
- If wanted: turn Visual Editor back on
For use with the phpinclusion plugin:
