Currently on the latest version of wordpress (3.9 as of writing) the Insert Shortcode button does not work with bloggy.

I’ve tried this with my plugins enabled and on a fresh install and neither work. I receive a mce error in Chrome Developer Tools.

How to replicate:
Open Developer tools in Chrome (Ctrl+Shift+i) and then create a new post
Click on “Insert Shortcodes” in the WYSIWYG and select any Shortcode
Click the Insert button and you’ll see errors print out in the developer tools console.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Some more information.

I’m pretty sure this is the line that it’s failing on: http://moa.sh/m/2014-04-29_2144.png

And the error in general: http://moa.sh/m/2014-04-29_2141.png

I’d like to echo Mooash’s concern. I can’t get the shortcodes to work on my site: http://theartofapplying.com. Please advise.

[Mooash]

I can confirm this is still happening in 2.9.1

[Eloen]

Me, too. Shortcode generator still doesn’t work.

Btw, Mooash, how did you get this kind of excerpt to show up on your site – http://i.imgur.com/gRXF2c1.png ?

I’m having trouble making the ‘Continue Reading’ button show up on my site together with the excerpt that has links in it. It’s either I get the button but the links don’t show up (i.e., they’re just plain text) OR I do get the hyperlinks but no ‘Continue Reading’ button.

A few questions for you:

* How do you add your excerpts – do you use the ‘Insert Read More’ tags or do you use the WordPress excerpt panel?

* Can you tell me your settings here please – http://i.imgur.com/tGFRYZM.png (this option is found under Appearance->Theme Options->Blog)

I opened a support thread here but no resolution so far so maybe you can help me instead.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Eloen,

I don’t use excerpt’s. I didn’t even know they existed haha.

I just use WordPress’ tag

To add it just click “Insert Read More tag” in the WYSIWYG

[Mooash]

Hmm. the code tag doesn’t work on this. I use WordPress’ tag, so just insert that and it appears.

[Mooash]

Jesus. It wont let me paste it haha. It’s the \ tag

[Mooash]

sigh. Look at it here.

[Eloen]

Thanks, Mooash! ^^

Yeah, that’s what I’ve been doing but something’s wrong on my end. See: http://www.pixelwars.org/forums/topic/excerptread-more-tag-broken/

I reinstalled the theme on a completely new WP installation (so there are absolutely no conflicts with plugins etc.), posted a 1,000 word count lorem ipsum, and it ALWAYS inserts the “Continue Reading” button after the 50th word no matter where I place it in the WYSIWYG editor.

Oh, well… thanks for the help though!
