Wordpress Plugins / Re: Easy Chart - Struggling With %s

« on: December 01, 2011, 04:12:02 PM »

I appreciate you're still really busy with iOS work, i just wonder if you could give an example as to how you'd lay out the parameters for looking up a CSV file.

I have TomSmith_WashPost.csv in the root folder of my wordpress folder, it contains the same information as the first post, i.e correct 5, incorrect 95 (in spreadsheet location b8 and b9 and c8 and c9)

However the following parameters give me the error:

"EASY CHART BUILDER import error: File not found. Make sure you specified the correct path."

[easychart type="horizbarstack" height="55" width="120" title="Reliability Rating %" importcsv="TomSmith_WashPost.csv" valuenames=""Correct, Incorrect" group1values="b8,b9" group2values="c8,c9"]

Any ideas?

PS: was gonna give feedhopper a try but can't find it in the appstore?

Two points....

I was using the public release and tried your idea, but it doesn't look right.

However i upgraded to the beta and hid the hide/show data box and now it's looking very nice, especially when you hover the mouse over the chart.

Is there anyway to add a % to the value of the numbers when hovering over the chart? I thought this might be possible with the currency number attribute in the main settings, but adding the % into the options doesn't seem to have done anything.

Secondly, do you have any tutorials / information on the new importcsv feature?

Thanks for your help so far.

Gavin.

Wordpress Plugins / Easy Chart - Struggling With %s

Hi there,

Expect a round of beers if you can help me with this one..........

I'm trying to use a chart to show how reliable a newspaper is in terms of percentage. So at the end of each page i enter in the following code (as an example):

[easychart type="horizbarstack" height="50" width="200" title="Reliability Rating %" groupnames="Correct, Incorrect" valuenames="Tom Smith, Washington Post" group1values="5,12" group2values="95,88"]

Now that would normally be great, however i have to manually edit the group1values and group2values to get it to total to 100.

What i would like if at all possible, is to enter group1data and the group2data and have it display the chart as a percentage automatically.

So if Tom Smith had accomplished 2 out of 40 and the Washington Post 12 out of 100, it would display a horisbarstack with the percentages above, but the data in this sentence.

Hope that makes sense and that it is possible!

(Or maybe a different chart is possible? It's just the horisbarstack is exactly what i envisioned.)
