Really sorry for such a stupid question - but I’ve tried to use this code/plugin in posts, pagfes and a “text” sidebar widget. I’m sure it’s because I don’t the syntax irgProgressBar() /?

Or the code is correct - but needs to be in a template - e.g. sidebar - am still stuck on syntax. Thanks in advance for your help -

also putting html code in the boxs after the bar causes issues with the footer. There also doesn’t need to be a hear option either since you cannot ad html tags to it.

In theory you would insert the code in the template anywhere you want it to appear. This is not required code though, for the plugin to work you just need to add the irgProgressBar() call somewhere in your template.

Where do you insert the code to show a percentage?

You should be able to access the percentage complete with the following code ...

options['percent_done']; ?>

Untested, let me know if that does not do the job for you.

If you can make a progress bar that can have a title and number / % attached… the writers will love you forever.

Catherine: Did you insert the template tag where you want the progress bar to appear? The template tag is irgProgressBar(); and will need to be inserted into your theme files where you want it to show up.

Hi,

I've just installed the progress bar, but it doesn't want to display. The header is showing, but not the actual bar - any ideas?

Just in case multiple requests would make the idea more likely to happen :) I just wanted to ditto Cyn’s comment! Multiple progress bars would make this completely rock, crafters very rarly only have one project going at a time LOL

Oh, do please widgetize it, and make it possible to have multiple progress bars! I cannot tell you how many crafters would jump on this with glee! We love to keep each other updated on the progress of our various projects, but while MANY crafters have taken to blogging, most of them aren't geeks.

Thanks! Cyn

Gurdit: That sounds like a great idea … I will see what I can do about putting that in the next release.

Is it possible to have multiple progress bars, each progressing upto a different level?
That way, it would also be useful as a rating system as well
