[Plugin: Microkid's Related Posts] Plugin No Longer Works

Hi Erica,

Try emptying your browser cache.

Just tried it. Still the same thing.

I’ve even tried it in Chrome, which I installed this week and had never visited my site from.

Other things to note:
I’ve deleted the plugin and installed 3.0 (previous version) with no luck. Also deactivated ALL my other plugins to make sure there were no compatibility issues. Still no luck.

It’s kinda hard to figure out what’s going with the info provided. Would you be able to check if the AJAX request to mrp-search.php is not giving a 404 (using firebug), or maybe check your server logs to see if there are any errors?

I’m still having this issue and I’ve tried everything I can think of. Disabling all plugins, installing new version, everything. Still no luck.

I can’t find any errors, but I’d be happy to give you a login to look yourself if you need to see.

What version of WordPress are you using?

Maybe you can ask your hosting provider to send you the error logs.

I get this error when using the search…

@firefusion
It appears you have WP_DEBUG set to true. The notices you are seeing have nothing to do with the plugin, wp-settings.php is a core file.

Check wp-config.php and make sure WP_DEBUG is set to false or remove it.

@ericamueller
Yeah maybe you can send me the login for an admin user at microkid.net-gmail-com so I can check it out?

Have same problem as EricaMueller.

Nothing notifiable, but also no results shown ??

I found out that there where problem durng one onother Plugin was activated. Alex King Popularity Contest Plugin.
So now temporarely i can switch him off.

Hm weird. Is WP_DEBUG set to true in your wp-config.php?

Ok, I’m still having this issue. My debug is set to false and even if I deactivate all my other plugins, this one still won’t work.

@microkid: Regarding the errors – they seems to be caused due to you not setting any error level prior to including wp-config.php. If you look at how wordpress itself includes wp-config.php in eg. wp-load.php then it does this first:

if ( defined('E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR') )
	error_reporting(E_CORE_ERROR | E_CORE_WARNING | E_COMPILE_ERROR | E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE | E_USER_ERROR | E_USER_WARNING | E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR);
else
	error_reporting(E_CORE_ERROR | E_CORE_WARNING | E_COMPILE_ERROR | E_ERROR | E_WARNING | E_PARSE | E_USER_ERROR | E_USER_WARNING);

I’m having the same issue, has the solution been found? Using WP 3.1.3

This is the first time i#ve come across problems with microkid.

I think it’s a great plug-in. I’ve never had any problems with it.
microkids code is pretty sound as far as I can see. I went through it when I modified it to display thumbnails and to set a maximum number of links on reciprocal posts.

I have alomost 40 plugins operating on one of my sites without any conflicts. The only thing i can think of causing any problems is theme compatibility.

It’s always worth testing by switching your theme back to the default 2010 wordpress theme and trying to use the plugin.
