the resent update broke THREE websites

Hi,

the recent Really Simple SSL update won’t make any modifications to the frontend of your website. Could you send us your site address so we can have a look?

Please check this reason https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/virus-detected-of-v5-v5-0-1/

“the recent” But the previous DID!!!

Do you still have the issue on 5.0.1?

yes, because it broke something. that said, our web dev has not looked/fixed the sites yet.

Allow me to be forward again, seconds before I updated Simple SSL I checked all three sites, I do that after learning lessons from the past. All three sites were fine on two browsers, edge and firefox. All three sites had our social icons intact. I then updated the plugin on all three sites, then checked the sites and the social icons disappeared.

Yes, I know I should have checked one site at a time, but that doesn’t change the occurrence. One odd thing afterwards, we received an email from the theme author moments after this incident that an update was available, so I installed it on all three sites, that didn’t fix the social icons. ALL that said, could the issue have been caused by something else? Well obvisly. But what are the odds? I literally installed your update, and the social icons disappeared. The worrisome part is, on the theme itself, I located the feature that turns the social icons set on and off (Enable or Disable) and it is Enabled! So, I am worried. I hope our dev can fix it, he has not replied yet, I am sure he is still sleeping. Our theme by the way is called Porto. I like the way it looks, but would never recommended it, it has had so many issues over the years.

Hi @etr316,

Could you share your URL so we can have a look?

regards Aert

I would rather not post it here. too many eye balls. do you have a way I can send in chat or an email?

Hi @etr316,

Refer to this thread via https://really-simple-ssl.com/support/, skip the license check, and we will have a look,

regards Aert

thanks.

just posted, I used the name you see here.

and again, I know it could be something else that was cause, but, I am being accurate on how the incident took place. I updated Simple SSL and then the icons were gone, period. and I did not update any other plugin, simple SSL was the only update available at the time before the social icons disappeared.

I just noticed you pushed out another update. fyi the version that broke things was 501, and you just updated to 502.

A completely weird this just occurred. I restarted our work station and after I updated two plugins, the theme and your 502 version the icons came back!!

I cannot explain this, it’s too strange, does not make sense at all.

At any rate, all OK now. THANK YOU for your Reponses. If we are ever successful with our business we will surly purchase your pro version based on this great support!

I alerted the support team to close the case.

THANK YOU.
