updated to 2.7 — adminimize NOT working!!

  • I was using adminimize to keep my regular users out of the backend and dashboard, and to hide unneeded stuff from everyone but admin. Upgraded to WP 2.7 and the plugin isn’t doing anything anymore. It isn’t hiding what it should, and the Adminimize Settings page shows the headers for the categories of settings, but no way to show the actual settings or change them. I just have the headings:
    Backend Options, Menu Options, Write Options… etc. 5 of these headings, but no options. Tried deactivating and reactivating — didn’t work… any help?

  • PLease deinstall, the function is on option-area of the plugin, all options and deactivate the plugin. Now activate new and use the new options in 2.7

    Unfortunately, I can’t see any of the options in the option area (I think you are talking about the Adminimize settings page). I only see the headers of each of the categories there, but none of the settings, so I can’t do this deinstall. I can only deactivate the plugin, but that does not deinstall it. Do I need to go directly to my database tables and try to strip out the adminimize entries?

    Here is what I have tried so far:

    1. deactivate and reactivate plugin – doesn’t work.
    2. deactivate plugin, delete files, upload freshly downloaded plugin files, activate again — doesn’t work
    3. deactivate plugin, delete files, went into my database and deleted all references to ‘adminimize’ (it found 5 references), uploaded plugin files again, activated plugin — doesn’t work

    Are there settings related to the plugin stored somewhere else in the database? I didn’t know how to find them except to search for ‘adminimize’.. if there are other settings part of the plugin saved in some other name, please let me know so that i can delete all traces of it before trying again.

    Thanks!

    I finally solved the problem on my own.

    My host is 1&1 and by default, PHP version 4 is used. Go to the root directory of the site and if there is an .htaccess file, add the following line to it:

    AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

    This will make PHP 5 the default for .php files. This plugin then works.
