WPBook Lite settings page empty except "Please complete all necessary fields"

  • Hi! Upon having installed and activated the wpbook-lite plugin on my live site, when I browse in the Dashboard to “Settings” > “WPBook Lite” I see a mostly empty admin panel page as in the below-linked screenshot.

    Link to screenshot:

    As displayed in the screenshot, the admin panel page has a message at the top: “Please complete all necessary fields”. However I don’t see a long list of options, checkboxes, text fields– I don’t see the configuration controls.

    What’s a good next step to troubleshoot what’s causing(and what fixes) this symptom?

    This is on my live site. In contrast, when I install on a localhost dev site I see the admin panel page and its configuration controls as expected. In other words it seems to be something specific to my live site.

    When you were on your localhost dev site, did you configure anything? Was any database configuration moved from local dev to production?

    I’ve never seen this specific problem – is there anything in your PHP error logs?

    Hi! Thank you for suggesting this, it led to being able to find a fix. I looked in PHP error.log file and it was putting out an error message corresponding to each time I tried to access the wpbook-lite settings page. The error message said “… Facebook needs the CURL PHP extension. …” So I installed CURL on my server and restarted apache2.

    Now I refreshed the page and I do see the “Settings” > “WPBook Lite” admin panel page, including its options, checkboxes, configuration controls etc.

    Thanks again! Lets mark this as resolved.
