404 Not found when updating options

That seems to be a bug. There ought to be a file there and a ? delineating between the URL and the query string.

So: example.org/wp-admin/options.php?updated=true

You might consider submitting a bug report, if it repeatedly happens.

I have made it’s fix. You can download it at https://www.ishbir.com/wpfix1.zip. Unzip the file to you wp-admin directory and replace the previous options.php file. Test it. If any problem mail me a at webmaster(at)ishbir(dot)com.

Hi Maerk – not sure if there are many other people experiencing the same problem as I, is it worth submitting the bug report?

Hi Ishbir – I’ve tried your options.php file and I’m still having the same problem.

Many thanks

Please download it again. I made the file again and did a mistake. Now it is fixed and tested. Download it from the same link.

Ishbir: What changes did you make to the options.php file? Because if I do a diff on yours and the original one from 2.0.3, I don’t see any differences.

nosila: Do you have mod_security running? If so, read this topic and see if that helps.

Please download the file again and see the diffrences becuase I uploaded the wrong file with the bug again.

Please see the differences in the line $goback = add_query_arg('options-general.php?updated', 'true', $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);. Firstly it was $goback = add_query_arg('updated', 'true', $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);

I just did, and it’s still the same as the original.

It’s got this line in your download as well:
$goback = add_query_arg(‘updated’, ‘true’, $_SERVER[‘HTTP_REFERER’]);

Please check it again or download it again and check. This line of ‘$goback’ is different. Open both the files and then navigate to the same line and check it carefully becuase sometime even I can’t see the differences.

That’s why we have comparison tools. ??
Both Araxis Merge and good old DOS FC declare the files identical.

Don’t use tools, check it by yourself or download the file again and check it yourself.

I DID!

I even asked a friend of mine to download it and take a look, but they’re identical for him as well.

Evidence

Have you found the difference or not?

No, still no differences.
