Hi Mike
Ah that makes sense. I’ll add the excerpt if required manually. I will also test the Widget plugin you suggested. Thanks for the assistance.If I have any other issues with this subject I’ll let you know.
Dave.
sorry I can’t seem to get the username and password to work properly most likely due to UPME so just use my credentials.
Sorry I had to change the password. See in private area. REMOVED see above or below.

Hi Mike
Its a shame that I can’t send you a screen shot however in the mean time if you go to the following link https://stjameslodgedev.stjameslodge.ca/log-me-in
and then use the following credentials to login (see private area).
Once you’re logged in then nav to the Widgets section of WordPress and you will see in the active widget area, Display everywhere. Under that you will see Enfold Child latest news. Click that to expand.
In the options for that widget is the following.
-Title: that works
-How many entries do you want to display: that works.
-Choose the categories you want to display (multiple selection possible): That does not work. you can pick as many as you want and only the most recent will appear based on the previous option.
-Display title only or title & excerpt: This option does not work. Only the title and the date appear.
-Visibility: That works.To view the actual widget in action and to test with different options use the following. https://stjameslodgedev.stjameslodge.ca/sample
Let me know if you need any further info. thanks.

Well partly right Mike. Seems that the php error does not exist on the live site however the other issues do exist in both places. Other issues are that the Widget allows you to select categories that you want to appear in the widget however that doesn’t work. Also the display title and excerpt doesn’t work either.
Perhaps you can look into that also.
Thanks
Oh and the widget in on the sample page only. for Demo.
Hi Mike
Sorry the site in the private area is not correct. Proper info has been posted in the Private content section of this reply.Note that the site I’m having a problem is a development site that resides on a raid drive in my office so tough to fix that unless you have suggestions as to what my be happening with the server config. I can tell you that I’m using PHP Version 7.3.1 and Apache.
What I have done is created a staging site and added a user (see Private content) for you to login and have a look. Note however that the server the site is on is using a different version PHP version: 7.2.7 so that could be the issue with the error on my home server.
The other issue with the Enfold Child Latest News Widget is that there is an option to pick categories that you would like to display however the categories you pick do not display, the widget simply displays the number of posts you choose by date they were added. So when I choose 2005, 2008, 2017, 2018 as the categories the four most recent posts display.
Also if you pick “display title and excerpt” you get Title and Date.Thanks for looking into this for me. I look forward to a fix.
