The links are just blogroll links that can be deleted from the links tab in the sidebar. Bam.

FeedWordpress actually uses the WordPress links system to store the feed addresses. So, whatever you do, don’t delete the links unless you want to enter the same feeds in over and over again! (This happened to me.)

All you can really do is hide/delete/remove the Blogroll from your sidebar. Typically this means clicking Appearance > Widgets and dragging it off of your sidebar space. Alternatively, if your sidebar is hard-coded into your theme, you’ll need to go to Appearance > Editor and delete it from sidebar.php.

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 262144 bytes) in /home6/carealpr/public_html/wp-admin/includes/misc.php on line 273

By adding this to my .htaccess file:

php_value memory_limit 64000000

Another solution I heard of was to add this in your wp-config.php file:

define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);

The main struggle was finding it. It’s located (at least on my server) in /var/www/vhosts/default/htdocs  It’s just an index.html file and a favicon. It probably isn’t writable unless you’re root, so you may need to ssh into your server to change the permissions.

In any case, when sharing the links I noticed that it was cumbersome to type a description, tags, and title every time.  I found a script called URL Fetch Script that I integrated into the link submission form with PressMark. All you need to do is replace the post-form.php with the modified one below. Be warned! The CSS isn’t rendered properly, so you’ll need to make some minor adjustments; I’d share my file, but I did a lot more changes than anyone is probably looking for in their projects. You’ll just need to fix the submission box corners. Comments and improvements are appreciated!

Here’s what it wound up looking like:

The simple solution was to just deactivate the plugin, then reactivate again. I did this and everything worked fine. For some reason OIOP appears to not want to be activated at the same time as other plugins.  I believe it runs a diagnostic test to make sure everything is in order (such as making sure the cache and uploads directory are writable/accessible).

Now you can either create a new form by clicking “Add New” or just add the following code to your Form window:

<p>Name<br /> [text* your-name] </p>
<p>Address<br /> [text* your-address]</p>
<p>City<br /> [text* your-city]</p>
<p>State [text* your-state 2/] Zipcode [text* your-zip 5/]</p>
<p>Email<br /> [text* your-email] </p>
<p>Phone<br /> [text* your-phone] </p>
<p> Interests:<br> [checkbox checkbox1 "Make Phone Calls"]<br>
[checkbox checkbox2 "Door-to-Door Campaigning"]<br> [checkbox checkbox3 "Organize/Host Events"]<br> [checkbox checkbox4 "Send Friend to Friend Cards"]<br> [checkbox checkbox5 "Help with Mailings"]<br> [checkbox checkbox6 "Send Letters to the Editor"]<br> [checkbox checkbox7 "Display Yard Signs"]<br> </p> <p>[submit "Send"]</p>

That will look something like this:

Now you need to add the message body in the message body form. Copy this code to the message body form:

[your-name] is interested in the campaign!<br> <strong>Address</strong>:<br> [your-address]<br> [your-city], [your-state] [your-zip]<br> <strong>E-mail:</strong> [your-email]<br> <strong>Phone:</strong> [your-phone]<br> <strong>[your-name]</strong> is interested in:<br> [checkbox1]<br> [checkbox2]<br> [checkbox3]<br> [checkbox4]<br> [checkbox5]<br> [checkbox6]<br> [checkbox7]<br> -- This mail is sent via volunteer form on [your site name] [your site url]
That will look something like this:

Then you need to click save in either the top right or bottom right corner of the screen. Lastly, just copy the tag that will generate your contact form in the post or page (or wherever) that you want the form to be seen. In this case, the code was

Your finished product should like something like this:
