[Plugin: Subscribe2] Successful Subscription Message Doesn't Display

@limitlessly,

Does this happen from one of the core WordPress themes? Are you using the page form or the widget? Are you using SEO plugins? Try deactivating them and test again if you are.

Thx for the reply. No, I am using a theme by Indonez from ThemePress. The site is https://www.braveheartconsulting.com. I’ve tried disabling the All in One SEO plugin, but still has the same behavior. I’m using both the page form and the widget. I didn’t see a way to only use the widget.

@limitlessly,

Have you tried using one of the core themes?

Also, you seem to have WordPress in a subdirectory called /blog/ but the plugin is being directed back to your domain root. How is your site set up?

Thx. No, I haven’t tried one of the core themes. The site is live and I don’t want to mess up any of the theme settings unique to the theme. WordPress is in the root directory of the site. The theme is just setup to have the home page be something other than the blog.

@limitlessly,

I suspect it’s something in your theme that’s blocking or over riding the $_GET variable from being detected or processed.

If you could check using a default theme this would be confirmed if it works fine there.

I have tried with one of the core themes and I get the same behavior. I have also tried by deactivating the SEO plugins and I get the same behavior. All of the other messages display fine except for the one where the email is confirmed. I’ve spent a lot of time looking in class-c2-core.php and have tried to change different options for $this, but I can’t find anything that will force the message to display. Any help would be appreciated! Thx.

@limitlessly,

How have used the [subscribe2] shortcode on your https://braveheartconsulting.com/subscribe/ page? Have you used any parameters in the shortcode?

Nope. No parameters. here is the HTML code in the Subscribe page:

‘ 

[subscribe2]

 `

Also, if you want to see the behavior, feel free to put in your email address and try it. I will be deleting all of the email addresses as I’ve signed in about 50 times trying different email addresses. I’ve tried to find a way to watch the code to see where $_GET gets set, but it’s a bit beyond my technical ability to figure out how to watch what is going on. I tried the developer’s toolbar and Firebug, but I can’t see anything that is or isn’t working as far as the plugin goes. Thanks Again! Sheila

I’ve thought about deleting and re-installing, but when I’ve done it, it doesn’t seem to delete the tables in the database that support the plug-in. Is there a way for me to easily delete the tables in the DB? Maybe I should delete all files, the tables and re-install from the beginning again. Thx. Sheila

@limitlessly,

Uninstalling and starting from fresh probably won’t help.

Also $_GET is a server side variable so you have to code break points in the PHP code to see what’s happening rather than using Firebug and similar.

The code you need to look at is the confirm() function in the classes/class-s2-frontend.php file. If you get stuck and want me to take a look contact me here. Bear in mind I need admin access to your WordPress site and FTP access would be handy to.

@limitlessly,

I think I got an email from you and I replied but I’ve heard nothing back as yet. Have you got things sorted or did you not get my email?

when i use

https://domain.com/?s2=1d468e170f4a525c78ce54242c04ac6886

it doesn’t work, just a redirect to /newsletter

when using

https://domain.com/newsletter/?s2=1d468e170f4a525c78ce54242c04ac6886

it works.

i think its one of the 404-plugins what redirects wrong.
