I see that GeSHi has an option for controlling that. It’s a good idea for a shortcode attribute. Version 2.5 has an option for controlling where links to documentation open.

Update to Version 2.4 – That’ll fix the quotes
( but you should still wrap your code in <pre> tags, so that you can use indentation … read on for a full explanation )

The problem was caused by WordPress’ wptexturize(). WP essentially tries to make your quotes look pretty by using curling quotes. WP doesn’t touch quotes inside of <pre> tags.

This is no longer an issue in PluGeSHin. You should still wrap your code in <pre> tags, so that you can indent your code easilly.

The simple way to do this is to always use the PluGeSHin TinyMCE button:

You can also choose to control things manually. The HTML of PluGeSHin tags should look like:

[geshi lang="python"]
<pre>
z = "george"
</pre>
[/geshi]

You can do this either in the HTML view, or the simpler method is to highlight your code in the Visual View and choose “preformatted” from the drop down. Make sure you do NOT wrap the short codes themselves in <pre> tags.

Often, if you paste code into the HTML view directly from a text editor, it’ll automatically be wrapped in <pre> tags and the indentation will be preserved.

Let me know if this helps, and thanks for using PluGeSHin!
Peter.

PS: Make sure you go to the PluGeSHin Settings page in WP-Admin and click Draft a Test Post. Look at the examples in the draft. A lot of the highlighted code has quote marks.

Obviously someone is trying to use open and close quotes and yes, I checked my code and used the ASCII ” key on the keyboard in my code.

I am using your PluGeSHin with python and most of the single- and double-quotes are being url-encoded in unicode or something.

Example:

“lift the tool and transition home”

Any ideas?

Thanks,

I’ve been searching everywhere and posting on wordpress.org but no luck.

I’m trying to display 3 posts but with the middle post as an excerpt.

There is an image and paragraphs on the 3rd post, which display if the middle post uses “the_content” but image / paragraphs are not displayed if middle post uses “the_excerpt”

I’m guessing the middle post isn’t closed properly and is affecting the look / functionality of the 3rd post.

I’m mostly a Designer, so doing my best to solve this code problem!

Here’s the code I’m using for http://greenlightresources.ca/test-home-2/
( You can see the image / paragraphs by looking at http://greenlightresources.ca

post_content;
$title = $page_data->post_title;
echo apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $page_data->post_content );
?>

<a href="” rel=”bookmark”>

post_content;
$title = $page_data->post_title;
echo ”;
echo $page_data->post_title;
echo ”;
echo apply_filters( ‘the_content’, $page_data->post_content );
?>

The above will exclude category 5. For multiple categories use commas:
query_posts('cat=-5,-9,-10');

Take a look at this WordPress reference page on query_posts().

If you’re using get_catagories, simply include “exclude”, like this:

<?php
$categories= get_categories('exclude=4,7');

Take a look at the WordPress get categories reference page.

To figure out the number for the category, navigate to the category page withing th WP admin panel. The category number is the Tag_ID number: ‘…&tag_ID=3′.
