Admin Alert – A problem has occured. A non-existent preset name has been passed

This is a built-in error, in case the post list name is non existent to the database.

However, I believe I came across this error during one of my live tests, and implemented a method to prevent it. If you are sure the preset post list does exist, then it’s possible there is a slight issue with case-sensitivity. Some special characters might cause a conflict as well.

To troubleshoot it, you could do one of the following options.

* Re-save the post list.
* Change the preset name to a more friendly ‘nicename’. Then save.

If you do not have a Preset Post List saved for the name, then you are basically seeing an Admin Only message that there is no post list in the database by that name. It is possible you have a post list from a different plugin that uses a similar shortcode.

Hi,

we have re-save the post lists also deleted all, even changed the names but its still appearing.

That’s rather peculiar…

I’m trying to think of what other possible issues there could be, because that is a Pre-defined Error message that I made if someone used the wrong name in the [post_list name="EXAMPLE"], where ‘EXAMPLE’ is the issue.

The main worry is the Name sanitation. One of which is already implemented in v0.4alpha.

If you would prefer, we could initiate a private conversation so I could log into the site. Submit a Message.
