You are welcome to take a look at my support post, here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/send-a-test-email-using-these-settings-not-working-in-wpmu

In addition to that post, I will add that I’ve seen delays on standard WordPress installations too, though normally not that long.

I wouldn’t call the WordPress installation at: https://bamajr.com vanilla. While I do my best to limit the plugins I install, it does have quite a bit of customization and this plugin has never failed me there. I have reviewed the plugin and reported slow reporting times, but that certainly shouldn’t be misconstrued as a failure to perform the tasks it advertises.

Hmmm… Emails are starting to come through, but 30-45 minutes after they were sent. I’m not sure this qualifies as resolved, but at least I can now confirm the sends are going through.

I have this plugin installed on a couple WordPress websites, running 4.1.1 and it works just fine. However, I do currently have send issues on WPMU installations. That being said…

If you are looking for a Newsletter plugin, for WordPress, that works with WPMU or a stand-along WordPress install, I suggest SendPress PRO (Bitly shortened link: https://bamajr.us/goSendPressPro).

SendPress is a FREE plugin (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/sendpress/) for newsletters, but the PRO version has the ability to integrate your MandrillApp account, as the Sending Account. It has a very nice UI, its very easy to use and the support is great (NO, I don’t work for them).

Also, I believe MandrillApp is giving everyone a very generous 12000 free sent emails, per month (NO, I don’t work for them either). I think this makes SendPress Pro, with the Mandrill Sending Option, the best Newsletter solutions I’ve found, hands down (my opinion of course).

I have this plugin installed on a couple WordPress websites, running 4.1.1 and it works just fine. No problems. I know every installation is different, so I suggest thorough testing, but I can validate the functionality in stand-along WP installs, above version 4.

The only issues I’m currently seeing come with installations on WPMU.

No Problem!

I don’t have a problem activating it anywhere except the initial installation screen, I’ve been referring too.

@doublesharp there are 6 Plugin developers and they don’t bother to help or even respond, but you found a solution. Very nice! Hopefully the plugin developers will implement your solution, soon.

No… So far this only happens with Jetpack, though I’m using very few plugins:

1. Activate Update Services
2. Akismet
3. Gravity Forms
4. Jetpack by WordPress.com
5. Nginx Helper
6. WordPress Importer

That’s it – so far anyway ??

The example you posted has the “Network Activate” link, just as I stated.

1. Log in to WPMU
2. Navigate to: My Sites > Network Admin > Plugins
3. Click “Add New” button
4. Jetpack usually shows up on the “Featured” page, which loads by default. Click on the “Install Now” button for Jetpack
5. When installation has completed, click on the “Activate” (or “Network Activate”) link

Error shows every time I duplicate this process, but everything seems to be installed and functioning properly, anyway.

@rahul286

Your suggestion to move the:

global $blog_id;

…seems to have done the trick. I’ll test further and report again.

I have one further question though. I think it is a matter of semantics, but do I need an

endif;

statement added to my code?

Wow… I really goofed up my OP! Sorry!

global $blog_id;
function phone_number_function() {

	if( $blog_id == 1 ):
		echo "Call now (###) ###-###1";

	elseif( $blog_id == 2 ):
		echo "Call now (###) ###-###2";

	elseif( $blog_id == 3 ):
		echo "Call now (###) ###-###3"; // and so on, all the way up to 10

	else:
		echo "Call Toll-Free (800) ###-####";

	endif;

}

I’ve also tried this:

global $blog_id;
function phone_number_function() {

        if( $blog_id == 1 ) {
		echo "Call now (###) ###-###1";
        } elseif( $blog_id == 2 ) {
		echo "Call now (###) ###-###2";
        } elseif( $blog_id == 3 ) {
		echo "Call now (###) ###-###3";
        } else {
                echo "This is a TEST";
        }

}

This second section of code is always returning: “This is a TEST” even when the $blog_id is 1 and 3 (there is no site on 2).

Yes @rahul286…

I edited the code in my original post. Maybe take a look at it again, if you don’t mind. I mistakenly pasted one of the many, many attempts I had made, to resolve this issue. The Current code is reflected in my OP.

Yes, and it isn’t just one site that is behaving this way, though they are all WordPress Multisite installations.

Again, if I activate directly after the installation, the message tells me that the installation fails, after already reporting the installation to be successful.

The plugin still activates, when reporting this failure and it seems to be fully functional.

This same error does not exist when activating from the Plugins area.

I did finally see that this plugin seems to be limited to Chrome and Firefox browsers, only. So, it seems this plugin was intentionally crippled, when used from Safari. I’m not sure why anyone would do that and it will prevent us from using the plugin, altogether.
