Bob

Ok, after a number of different actions, it appears the problem was a change in my php.ini settings around the same time I did the BP upgrade.

I had changed the zlib.output_compression setting to on. Long story on how I figured this out, but when I changed it to off, everything worked again.

Bottom line, BP nor any of the plugins caused the problem and I’m back up and running.

Great plugin and Great support.

Thanks

I tried a few past versions of my database from previous backups and even tried the SQL query you suggested, no luck. I also tried a few different themes. Same thing

Thanks for all your help on this, but I’m just going to leave it as is for now. Everything else is working fine, I have no errors in my logs and I can still see the login security log for BP, if I deactivate TinyMCE. So I’m fine with that. Maybe it will work it’s self out down the road.

Thanks a again,

Ok, tried that and still have the same problem.

Unless you have any other ideas, I’ll just deal with it for now. I can check the login security by deactivating the TinyMCE and then reactivate later.

Thanks for the help.

Ok, this is crazy…lol

I deactivated all the plugins and reactivated BulletProof first and it showed up in the left side tab. I continued reactivating plugins until I got to the last one, Ultimate TinyMCE. When I activated it, BulletProof disappeared from the left side Tab.

If I deactivate TinyMCE, BP comes back. Just like with Quick Caches

I also ran a repair on my database and still have the same problem.

Oh, I also deleted Quick Cache, prior to your last post.

First, thanks for the quick response.
Just to clarify my current configuration:
WP Version: 3.5.1
No other security plugins
Single Site, on a Shared hosted server.
Current Plugins include: 404 Redirection, Akismet, BulletProof, DP Excerpt, Growmap Anti Spam Bot, Jet Pack, Optimize Database after deleting Revisions, Quick Cache, Super RSS Reader & Ultimate TinyMCE. All plugins are current versions.

So based on your suggestions and questions, here is what shook out.

1. Upgraded to 48.5 and no change, no side bar tab. Logged out and back in, cleared cache. no change.

2. Deactivated BulletProof and get this, “Quick Cache” disappeared from the Left side tab.

3. I reactivated bulletProff and “Quick Cache” came back? I repeated this several times and received the same result.

4. I deactivated Quick Cache and BulletProof, then just reactivated BulletProof and still no side bar tab for BulletProof.

I cleared the cache and browser cache each time also. Could this be something with Quick Cache?

Same problem here. I deactivated the plugin and went back to using the meta widget. I’ll wait until they fix this. I was able to login through the /wp-login.php link

I’ve had some of the same problems. Is there a way to tell which plug-ins work with each other? I’m new to all of this, so I was wondering how configuration management is maintained.
