plugin conflict with…something?

    This is a great little plugin and does exactly what it says (very smooth, BTW) on every site I’ve used it on…except one.
    Just recently, on crystalcountess.com it caused a strange problem that does not replicate anywhere else – despite same WP version, same plugins, same theme, same navigation structures.

    It was causing all pages under a parent and the contact form to appear blank! This only occurred if logged out (logged in it performs 100%).
    Home page & Blog “page” fine, but click any other pageunder a parent or any post, blank page (FYI page navigation was fine, permalinks fine).
    As mentioned, this site uses the same theme and group of active plugins as several other sites I manage – and they all love your plugin.
    I’ve had to use something else to solve the problem, but wondered if ye might have any ideas.

    Thank you for contacting me.

    Did you check your PHP error log for any entries?
    Could you please provide me with admin credentials to kouratoras[at]gmail[dot]com to help you check the issue further?

    Regards.

    Nothing of note in error logs. Credentials on the way…

    I’ve received the account email but get a message: “ACCOUNT PENDING: Your account is currently not active. An administrator needs to activate your account before you can login.”

    Belay that…I just noticed there was a recent update to your plugin – so I re-installed it – and it works!
    I’d still be interested in what caused the problem initially (if ye can find that now it works), but a fix is a fix!
    Cheers!

    Most probably, was a corrupted file when copying/uploading the plugin’s file. So the update just uploaded the correct files.

    Glad to hear it works now. A review would be really appreciated! ??

    Cheers.

    I mark this as resolved.

    Konstantinos, mate…sorry to say, the problem returned in force – now if the plugin is activated, the whole site is blank (even if “don’t show on home page” is activated).

    Just to be sure, I uninstalled it, made sure the files were all gone, reinstalled it – same problem!

    The alternate plugin I’m using in the meantime works fine.
    I haven’t done anything with the site – other than perhaps some plugin updates – though nothing on this site as I recall other than Infinite WordPress (just a management tool for many sites – it doesn’t really “run” anything). As I mentioned before, this particular site uses the same plugins as a dozen others on the same server (and a few less than some).
    It’s an absolute mystery!

    Hi! Sorry to hear that. If you set wp_debug to true, can you see any error messages when enabling my plugin?

    Thread Starter captainswallow

    (@captainswallow)

    I just tried setting debug active via the wp-config file – but that seems to break the site altogether. Is there some other way I might manage this?
    As this is a live site, I have to be careful what happens on the ‘outside’.

    Don’t know if I mentioned, this anomaly ONLY shows when logged out – if logged in to the admin panel, your plugin functions as expected, so it requires a lot of login/log out to even see what is happening.
    The client notified me about this this morning as I wasn’t aware (I’m usually logged into the site when I see it).

    Can you send me admin credentials to the email i provided in a previous reply? Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

    I think i found the cause. Could you check that it’s working now?

    Thread Starter captainswallow

    (@captainswallow)

    Working again! So, what what the cause and how did ye fix it?

    It was an HTML tag that existed in comments. It’s strange but it seems it made some kind of conflict. I will release an new version soon, which you can safely update to. Thank you.
