Converting from TSG - Duplicate players/shortcode options
« on: August 11, 2012, 09:16:40 am »
Hello,

I am helping a friend convert from using the TSG plugin, and there is a bit of a problem we are experiencing: we used the shortcode for that plugin on all posts and now, we have two choices, neither of them great:

1. Have PP insert the player at the top or bottom of posts, and then have to go back and clear out all the older shortcodes (thousands of posts), or:

2. Keep using the shortcode, but when we do this the download link will not appear next to the player (which is weird as it means the shortcode is not obeying the player settings for the podcast).

We have a good number of listeners who download the podcast and then listen to it manually. Is there a way for the download link to appear next to the shortcode-inserted player?

It should work, please email me cio [at] rawvoice.com with specifics to your site URL and such, we added the shortocde that was in the Podcasting plugin to PowerPress, but it may be that the shortcode name changed after we did this. We did the conversion when the original author of the Podcastng plugin moved on from the plugin, the TGS version was someone elses attempt at taking over the project, which didn't last very long. I think who ever started the TGS version hijacked the project, but that's my opinion and a real shame.
