Hey, I really love this plugin but its not allowing me to post more than one box on a single page… I have read that this was an issue before but I have the latest version of this plugin and its still not working for me… maybe I’m missing something. Any tips would be great!

Thanks,
Ashley

Matt, sorry your code doesn’t seem to be showing up. Be sure to wrap it in code tags.

Hi,

Very nice plugin. Perfect for what I need.

I have a form that generates HTML for users. This HTML page needs a nice text box like yours where users may click quickly and copy the code. I am trying to place it in the page template so that the HTML displays inside your textbox.

I need this somehow to be in the ‘CONTENT’

1))); ?>

How would I do that?

Thanks for your help.

Cool man, I just noticed you hike around San Clemente. I’m actually from there.

Hi Cliff,

I’m releasing a new version today which will parse nested shortcodes and shouldn’t have any compatibility issues with Grunion Contact Form.

I figured out #2…

Put something like this
[field "my_video_embed_code_custom_field"]
in a shortcode container plugin (e.g. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-snippets/)

And then just call that plugin’s shortcode name where you want it:
[my_shortcode_1]

Then the Simple Select All plugin is no longer needed.

For the sake of this plugin, though, check this out: http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API#Nested_Shortcodes

1) The newest version hasn’t fixed this incompatibility issue, which I added to the forum: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simple-select-all-text-box-not-displaying-correctly-when-used-with-grunion-contact-form#post-2026616

2) This may be a bit more advanced, but is there a way to add a parameter to convert shortcodes before displaying the select text?

Examples:

A) Current action – the shortcode is the text exactly as entered

[textbox rows="1" shorcodes="0"][field "video_embed_code"][/textbox]

B) Desired – let the shortcode(s) “execute” (or “render” or whatever it’s called), then the textbox text would contain the actual embed code –

[textbox rows="1" shorcodes="1"][field "video_embed_code"][/textbox]

Look forward to hearing back. Thanks!
