Thank you once more for staying on top of it… I have updated and am so far unable to repeat the issue/errors… I’ll be working on the site for a while yet, and if any issue does again come up I’ll for sure let you know… And so in the meantime and once more, thank you for making this great plugin available… ????

Correction… The issue still occurs, though appearing a little different and not every time, though even once is too much of course…

Here is the WordPress recovery email error details, as you can see similar, but not as long as before… I am going to uninstall your plugin once again, and wait for another update to give it another try… I’m willing to keep trying to help you get it right, as you have a really good plugin here, once this is fixed…

When seeking help with this issue, you may be asked for some of the following information:
WordPress version 6.6.2
Active theme: Girly (version 1.8)
Current plugin: 404 Solution (version 2.35.16)
PHP version 8.2.23

I’ve reinstalled, and 2.35.16 seems to have fixed it… So far can’t make that issue reappear, and it was right in my face before, so to speak… Thanks for getting on to it so quickly…

This is another irresponsible and totally diversionary reply, the exact same one you gave myself and others multiple weeks ago… ?As well as there continues to be exactly zero helpfulness at this link you give…

You are instead using this issue to push people here into following the link so they will be “tempted” to buy your paid version…   Which I believe is, if that is actually the case, contrary to WordPress rules…

You need to get a real fix of this issue as an update to your plugin here in the WordPress Plugin Repository, ASAP…  Repeat, ASAP…

Otherwise WordPress will be notified via some of its more official channels in these regards, so they can perhaps consider what might eventually become some more appropriate and encompassing actions…

Regards.

Hi Aaron,

First to say I appreciate you getting back so quickly, and your efforts, and for making the functions of this plugin of yours available to folks…

This is my first use of your plugin, on a new site I am still designing and developing… So I’m presently in no hurry for a fix…

I wanted to try a different plugin for this function on this new site, see how it went, and then maybe further use it elsewhere as well… This is mostly because the plugin I have been using for a few years for this function is no longer being supported…

For now I’ve removed your plugin so I can keep working on the site… I would love to reinstall it once you get this figured out and fixed, so I can keep giving it a try…

I also suspect that I am likely not the only one a fix for this will help, when you can make it a more universal fix there in your setups, rather than me trying fix it with your suggestions here on just my one site…

I have a bunch of sites both live and dev all in the same reseller account on the same high-end server with all using the same basic WP installs and each with lots and lots of plugins… And this is the only plugin that is giving this sort of issue anywhere…

And also again, though I am comfortable enough with css and html, getting into and messing with databases and config files and php is a little more tricky for my rather old brain… Not to mention the likelihood I’d have to keep going back and forth with you here for who knows how much…

I do sincerely hope you fix this so I can reinstall and keep giving your plugin a try… Please inform this thread topic when you do, so I can get a notification email and know…?

Kind regards,
crzyhrse

I am experiencing the very same, and was locked out of the backend until I went into the cPanel and renamed 404 solutions so as to take it out of play… Right away fixed things…

Your changelog on the plugin’s folder has 2.35.15 as the last update… So apparently that version which you mention above is not fixing it…

I was not even able to get into the backend through WordPress’s recovery mode until I renamed the plugin so as to take it out of play…

Here is error info from WordPress’s recovery email:

Thanks for this code, it works perfectly for my purposes… ??????

This has been resolved, and much thanks to Janis/@whiteshadow…!!
??????

And thank you for dealing with it so quickly… ????

THANK YOU for such a quick and effective response…!!!
????

@mrfoxtalbot, the system did not notify me of your reply, though the box for that was checked, and so am just seeing… Thank you for your response, and the email address… I will try to nudge them again… ????

I also am concerned about this… Please fix soon… Wordfence has this to say about it:

WP Categories Widget <= 2.2 – Reflected Cross-Site Scripting

Description
The WP Categories Widget plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Reflected Cross-Site Scripting via several parameters in the wcw_terms_list() function called via an AJAX action in versions up to, and including, 2.2 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page.

From Wordfence:

The Optimize Database after Deleting Revisions plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 5.0.110. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on the ‘odb_start_manually’ function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to start the database optimization process via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.

The proper form here in these realms, when this sort of thing happens, is to open a support ticket…

But now the review exists, and can’t be removed… And so changing the review rating is the next best thing…

And most especially because your own comments say you are using the plugin still… And so you are greatly benefiting from all the time and work developing and maintaining what is a very handy, well done and unique plugin…

So the proper and decent thing for you to do is to open a support ticket, or at the very least change this review rating… Five stars would not be wrong, even disregarding the real benefit you are gaining from it, simply because of the effort that has been put into engaging you here…
