I installed from the Plugins -> Add New -> Search plugins and it said it installed version 1.6.0, not 1.6.1. It behaved a bit differently than yesterday, though. ‘Test Imap connection’ now says working… but doesn’t appear to complete.

More info: Following ajgankema’s sugggesion, I installed version 1.3.5 yesterday and tried to create a mailing group. It gave me a warning message that I had not filled in Sender name or Sender email. After adding those fields, I successfully created the group. I suspect that 1.6.0 doesn’t warn you of required, unfilled, fields, but just discards the incomplete group.

I updated from 1.3.5 to 1.6.0 and it seemed to work although ‘Test Imap connection’ did not do anything. I deleted the plugin and reinstalled to test 1.6.1. It appears to at least partially work. I’m sending from outlook (html format) and the received message has a bunch of html displayed.

I’m having the same problem. What version did you use that worked, and did you find it?

I solved my problem with the help of this blog:
https://top-frog.com/2010/07/01/a-simple-way-to-limit-file-downloads-to-only-logged-in-users-in-wordpress/

Simply stated, I moved my sensitive documents to a subfolder (wp-content/uploads/pw/protected), added the following .htaccess file to its parent folder (wp-content/uploads/pw/):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .*uploads/pw/.*
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*wp-postpass_.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule . /not-allowed [R,L]
and updated the links on my pw-protected page to point to to the sensitive documents in the subfolder.

I’m not sure my initial post made it clear that our password protected pages link to, or embed the sensitive PDF and MS Word documents. The only access I want to allow to them is through the password protected WP pages.

Thanks for your quick response. Unfortunately, your link describes the manner in which I am using password protection, but doesn’t address the issue of subverting the protection by navigating directly to the document, rather than accessing the page in which the document is embedded.

It wouldn’t let me deactivate the plugin either. Pressing ‘Deactivate’ kicked me to my website’s homepage, just like pressing ‘Update’ did. However, it allowed me to deactivate, update, and reactivate after I deactivated all other plugins (including WordPress Firewall 2). The other plugins then reactivated OK.

I can’t say for sure it was an interaction with with the firewall plugin (I have 25 other active plugins), but based on marlene23’s comment, that’s the way I would bet. Note that I upgraded 8 other plugins at the the same time yours failed. The others upgraded fine.

In:
WordPress Admin > Dashboard > Plugins > Installed plugins > WP Easy Paypal Payment Accept
It says “There is a new version of WP Easy Paypal Payment Accept available. View version v4.3 details or update now.”
Pressing update now takes me to my site and does not update the plugin.
I get the same behavior when I try to update from:
WordPress Admin > Dashboard > Updates > “Update Plugins” when WP Easy Paypal Payment Accept is selected (checked).

I’m getting the same behavior. It just jumps to my site when I try to update.

Oh, I get it. I was expecting the subject to appear as a title, like it does with the simple shortcode. I’ll just use all attributed shortcodes and use header tags to add the add in the titles. Thanks.

This problem was finally fixed by 2 things:
To my custom CSS I added:

.et_lb_module img, .tiled-gallery img {
/* max-width: 900px; */
max-width: 1000px!important;
}

This made the tiled gallery display correctly in IE 6, 7, and 8.
To my functions.php I added:

function jeherve_check_galleries( $post ) {
global $post;
if ( false !== strpos( $post->post_content, ‘[gallery’ ) )
echo ‘<meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”IE=8″ />’;
}
add_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘jeherve_check_galleries’, 0);

This made the tiled gallery display correctly in IE 9 and 10.
Thanks Jeremy for all your help!

Following up on the fact that the page seems to work in IE8, I tried adding:
<meta http-equiv=”x-ua-compatible” content=”IE=8″>

to header.php immediately after the <head> tag. This fixes the problem!, but other pages don’t render as well. Is there a way to inject this <meta…> tag just on tiled gallery pages?

I’ve removed the <meta…> tag so you can still see the problem.

BTW, I’m not the only one having this problem. A Google search turned up numerous people seeing it or something similar. It’s just that the recommended CSS workaround (“.et_lb_module img, .tiled-gallery img { max-width: 1000px!important; }” – which I am using) doesn’t work in IE 10. My testing indicates that it DOES work for IE 8.

Ok, per your email request, WordPress, all plug-ins, and the parent theme have been updated and the problem still exists.

I turned off all plug-ins except Jetpack and cleared all IE caches, and the problem still exists.

I’ve turned the plug-ins back on, but you can turn them off if you want. Just don’t leave them off longer than necessary. Our board of directors will be occasionally visiting the site (they know it’s under development, but still…).

How many millions of man-hours have been wasted trying to get IE to display websites correctly?

Great!

I switched to the Twenty Twelve theme. It looked pretty broken, (the menus were messed up) but the problem still existed. If anything, it was worse.

I can give you WP admin access if that will help (don’t worry about breaking anything, I backed up the site before switching themes and the site isn’t officially “live” yet anyway). I need a reasonably safe way to send you login credentials, though.

I had some add-ons, but they were removed when I reset IE. Which version of Windows are you using? x-86 or x-64?

After zooming to 115%, try going back and forth between “Home Port” on the menu bar, and “Media Gallery” > “Our Fleet” > “Fleet Gallery” a couple of times.

FWIW, several people on several PC’s see the problem, so it’s not specific to my PC. I really like the tiled gallery, I’d hate to have to remove it and use something else. Thanks for you time.
