I found some JavaScript that said it would scroll an iFrame to the top on page load, but could not get it to work in the TNG Admin area, so popping that out into a new window seemed like the easy fix. It also fixed another odd issue – any time the TNG settings were saved in the TNG Admin from within the WordPress environment any ” marks in the config were escaped again, so for example

William “Bill” Moffat eventually became

William \\\\\\\\\\”Bill\\\\\\\\\\\” Moffat

and

\r\n

became

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\r\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\n

There are going to be all kinds of quirks you will find since TNG is not written as a plugin for WP and is technically being embedded into WP.

I’ve actually quit using the plugin because TNG is painfully slow being called up by the WP loop function.

On the average, loading times for a TNG page through the plugin is 2 times slower. On a TNG page that is calling lots of javascript it is 3 times slower.

So if you go into WordPress Admin and then to the TNG Admin within WordPress environment with what you’ve got, and click on something that will display a list say People, as you page through using the 1, 2, 3 etc at the bottom of a page does the new page scroll to the top or not?

I’ve pretty much given up trying to figure that out and have actually altered the link for Admin from TNG on the WordPress Admin sidebar to open TNG Admin in a whole new window.

“6) Force TNG Administrator drop down on front page to open in new Window” I always do to do lists and forgot my train of thought

I believe I just wanted to redirect the administrator link in the front end TNG drop down menus to open in a new window (open the TNG admin page) so I would not lose the page I was originally on.

A question on your setup working as I work with Darrin on his version of this – if you’re in the WordPress Admin area and then enter the TNG Admin area, it shows up inside the WordPress page still with a URL like

xxxxxx.com/wp/wp-admin/admin.php?page=tng-wordpress-plugin/admin.php

If you then click on say People, to get the first list of people, then scroll to the bottom of the list, and then click “Next”, does the page scroll back to the top, or stay stuck at the bottom and need manual scrolling to get back to the top?

Is this situation what you’re referring to above when you say

6) Force TNG Administrator drop down on front page to open in new Window.

to get it to be in a whole separate window?

Thanks
