    Hello,

    My designer has loaded the Pro version but the Cards option isn’t showing on the dashboard.

    Could you please advise?

    Many thanks,
    Brenda

    Additional to my question above, in case it’s affecting the CARDS option:
    I’ve tried to load wp-show-posts-pro-1.0-beta.2.zip but the installation failed:

    Installing Plugin from uploaded file: wp-show-posts-pro-1.0-beta.2.zip
    Unpacking the package…
    Installing the plugin…
    Destination folder already exists. /home/domains/vol2/397/2724397/user/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/wp-show-posts-pro/
    Plugin installation failed.

    Thanks.

    Hi there,

    You can install this plugin to prevent that issue when uploading the beta: https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-theme-and-plugin-upgrades/

    Alternatively, you can just delete WPSP Pro and upload the beta.

    Then the Cards option will show.

    Let me know 🙂

    Hello Tom,

    Thank you for your advice — deleting WPSP Pro + installing the beta worked 👍🏼

    My designer was able to create Cards, these are supposed to be in the Overlap style ( http://1103665979.test.prositehosting.co.uk/BLOG/ )

    However…they aren’t anything like what’s on the Dispatch gallery, and my designer is a bit stuck — please could you help?

    The idea is that, on the front (HOME) page, snapshots (i.e. Overlap cards) of the 4 latest blog posts will show below the fold. There is also a BLOG navigation page which will (for now) use Overlap cards as well.

    Thanks for your assistance,
    Brenda

    Hello,

    Could I follow up on my query above please…

    In the Cards that my designer was able to create (see link above), the insets are vertical rectangles, unlike the ones in the Dispatch gallery (see link above).

    The idea is that, on the front (HOME) page, snapshots (i.e. Overlap cards) of the 4 latest blog posts will show below the fold. There is also a BLOG navigation page which will (for now) use Overlap cards as well.

    Please could you advise?

    Thanks, Brenda

    Hi Brenda,

    The Dispatch site actually uses the free WPSP version and just has custom CSS for the home page – it’s not using any of the cards.

    Your designer should be able to inspect the CSS (https://gpsites.co/dispatch) to match the design.

    Hi Tom,

    Thanks for your reply.

    My apologies for not explaining myself correctly. I had meant that I would like to use the Cards Overlap function, as it’s shown in the WP Showposts demo:
    https://demos.wpshowposts.com/cards/

    I had purchased the Pro version so as to take advantage of this feature, unfortunately my designer isn’t able to achieve the horizontal rectangular format (http://1103665979.test.prositehosting.co.uk/BLOG/)

    If there is any documentation available, or if you could indicate how this could be achieved, that would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks, Brenda

    Apologies, I just realised my queries are being posted under a different topic. I’ll close this one and open a new topic.

    Thanks.
