Can't edit options

No idea. Probably something is wrong with your installation of wordpress or even the webserver.
I’d check the .htacces first.

Hmm…

it’s my forth wordpress on the same server (different databases all of them, so no problem there) and no problem like that ever occured.

The wordpress in question has been set up only today, I switched off the few other plugins I had running. Still the error remains.

Funnily enough, the ‘Options’ button on the front end (adminbar, next to ‘edit recipe’) points to https://asado.variada.net/wp-admin/admin.php?page=_options ….which doesn’t sound right either…(nor does it work…)

my .htaccess only consists of the stuff wordpress put there on install

′# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress′

any more thoughts on that?

where should the options link point? maybe that would help me find out why it doesn’t?

The problem sound a bit weird to me. I’ve never seen such a problem and not even heard of it.

Your .htaccess seems to be alright.

The options page should be at [Your URL]/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=rpr_recipe&page=_options so the link seems to be fine. In the frontend I have the same link like you but it works for me.

I have no idea why this does not work for you.

ok, let’s do it differently ….

what do I miss on the options page? ??

Quite a lot. Options allow you to fine tune the appearance, rename, deactivate or delete taxonomies, create your own taxonomies just to name the important features.

Could you please tell me:
– the webserver and version
– the version of PHP
– the version of mySQL
– the operating system
you are using.
And please look into your web servers error log if there are any errors that might be related to the options page.

I do not own my own webserver, I do shared hosting (with all-inkl.com) – so I can’t get into the webserver’s error log.

PHP Version 5.3.28

MySQL Version 5.5.43

webserver info should be in the phpinfo I guess. that is what it yielded: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rpdyqh8lipxbryo/phpinfo.txt?dl=0

I can change the php version to up to 5.6 if that’s any help.

my guess atm would be that it’s a redux framework problem. as it’s the first time I needed it. but that’s a guess only.

I also tried uninstalling und reinstalling both your plugin and the redux framework plugin. But it didn’t help matters.

thanks for your help ??

I was a bit surprised to see that allinkl indeed does not offer any error log at all. However its is possible to create a logfile within your webspace as described ie here: https://blog.joergboesche.de/serverphp-config-php-error-handling-via-htaccess

Without an error message I won’t be able to sort out the problem.

Any news on your problem?

Heya,

yes! well no, no news, because the WordPress site with uses your plugin and gets the error is a private project and I suddenly got to work on an work project which leaves me very very little time for personal things.

That should be done by the end of next week. I will try your link asap and report back on the results.

Sorry for not telling before, I simply was overworked.

Thanks for so much help!

Don’t worry. I know your situation just too well. I’ve just had two weeks holidays and some time to work a little on the plugin. The next weeks will again be very busy with work.

Heya,

sorry it took me so long but this was some summer full of work.

I tried the php error log. but the error log (both the file and it’s directory set to 777 permissions) stays empty.

I furthermore noticed the following:

* while I can’t open the options of your plugin I ALSO can’t get into the options/customize page of my theme any more. but error out with: “No data received. ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE”

* I disabled each and every plugin. and switched them on one by one again. everything (basically the theme options page) worked fine. even with ReduxFramework switched on. until your plugin (the last in the line) was switched on. then both things went out again.

* I had the error log thing enabled during that process but nothing showed. file stays empty…

basically I’m stumped….sorry…

to me it seems like some kind of redirect failure from the url variables..but no idea how…

EDIT: Both ReduxFramework and your plugin are uptodate with newest versions.

Hi,

just a few remarks from the beach:
* To me it is clear that there is no general problem with the plugin as you are the only one reporting this issue. Also my testing And my production systems are not showing the behaviour you described.
* To find out which theme or plugin is interfering with RecipePress reloaded the way you’ve chosen will leed to no result. While it’s generally a good idea to disable all plugins and reenable them one after an other enabling RPR at the end will only show you there are interferences. So please enable RPR first. If the settings page does not work then the theme is to blame. If not start enabeling all the other plugins and check the settings page after each plugin enabled.
If you tell me the result I might be able to reproduce the problem and track it down.
