Hi Steph,
 
With the "Both (Dynamic)" option set  the [print_link] command for the wp-print plugin does'nt work anymore.
 
Using javascript print is no option because ofcourse this shows everything as a webpage (including header and so on).
There are other plugins though (now I have sociable and wp-print) maybe I'll try some other first. If you know one that works for printing the post-page as mailed before, let me know.

Are you inserting the content automatically, or using a [display-frm-data] shortcode on your page? Shortcodes inside the custom display settings will currently only work if the content is inserted automatically.

If you are inserting it automatically and it's still not working, you can use the print javascript also with adding a print css into your theme. This isn't as complicated as it sounds. Check out this post for detailed instuctions. I haven't looked into plugins to do this since it's often easier to add a second stylesheet than it is to setup a plugin. Hopefully this is as easy as I'm making it sound.

Hi Steph,

The wp-print shortcode still works on the newobject form (the custom display set for a single entry) but not in the newobjects with Both

(Dynamic) option. Both custom displays automaticly insert the content (replace any content). The newobect form is'nt used anymore so no problem I will use the javascript and a style sheet.

I know I'm stretching everything to the limits here, but it works :)) The only thing that is becoming a bit slow is editing the forms, but that's not strange with so many fields ;)) I am curious how it works with many records though. Some time ago a read something about caching (I think you wrote it some time ago) so when the time comes, will try that.

Thanks for the tip and the link, will let you know when you can take a look again.

Oh, I see the problem. Since the content is dynamic, the print plugin you are using isn't seeing it. It is just getting the content for that specific page without the extra page parameters I'm using to get the content. Looks like you'll need to do it manually. Sorry.

Hi Steph,

I implemented your tip and as always a super-tip! Have to shuffle the layout though but for now it's fine.

Now I really have to find a way to send you a cake…
