Hi Serge.
I’ve tried that, then cleared cache and even re-saved the permalinks, but I’m still seeing the 404s (52 of them in the 1 hour since I reactivated the plugin).I think the key is to keep your backup list as small as possible. I kept getting the ‘Signal 15’ error when I was backing up all my site files, despite changing the settings as have been recommended elsewhere. However, when I split the single job up into 3 separate backup jobs (for the theme files and root folder files, for the uploads, and for the plugins) all worked ok. It means you have 3 scheduled jobs (4 including the database) to worry about, and you need to run them all close to one another to avoid getting out of sync, but at least it works.

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] I want to add shortcode features but dont know how to?I’m looking for something very similar, but for a slightly different reason. The theme I am using works in a strange way. I have added this events plugin but cannot get the events list to display directly from the menu (see here and then click the ‘events’ menu item). This menu link points correctly to the events page, but the events page doesn’t display when it is clicked – I see the content for the first event instead. However, when I go directly to the events page by typing the url it displays correctly… https://movewelltkd.co.uk/events/.
I’m sure this is a problem with the theme and not with the events plugin, but if I had a shortcode that I could place inside a normal page that would display the events list, then that would work for me.

In reply to: [Gallery Metabox] Upload_Files capabilityThanks Bill.
The images are uploaded initially by the artist via a registration form. This correctly attaches the image to the artist post, but does appear to leave the media author field blank. The artist can subsequently edit the images in their gallery by using this gallery metabox plugin.However, the artist doesn’t see this gallery metabox in their dashboard view until the media author field is correctly set to their username. My expectation was that in their gallery metabox they would see any images attached to their post, and that the author would be irrelevant.
I think the gallery metabox appears in the dashboard, but showing no images until the media ‘author’ field is set. I’ll go back and confirm this later.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Cannot Update or Install Plugins Through WP DashboardI also have this problem on one of my sites. I’m pretty sure the problem has only been there since I upgraded to WP 3.5.1 a week or so ago.
It looks like the function wds_bp_registration_options_bp_before_member_header is missing in plugins/bp-registration-options/includes/core.php. The offending code is at line 200 and just seems to be used for outputting a custom message at the top of the member profile page. I have commented line 200 out on my site and it seems to work ok after that. No guarantees for your own site, though, and a proper fix by the plugin developers would be best.
Akismet can be used free of charge, but only for websites that are not for profit, or charities. You won’t be getting any benefit from Akismet unless you get a security key and add it to the akismet configuration page on your site.
I don’t think that Akismet will stop spammers from registering on your buddypress-enabled site.
I would also like a resolution to the wds_bp_registration_options_bp_before_member_header warning problem please.
I haven’t used this plugin, but I have tried to install it on my server (which is on php 5.2). As expected, the plugin activation fails. As the plugin author says, this plugin needs to be running in a php 5.3 environment. The reason for this is that it uses code that has only been available since 5.3.
I have had a quick go at fixing the code so that it activates on php 5.2. There are no assurances, but you can see my solution to get the CapsuleCRM plugin working on php 5.2 here.
But the current version of Drainware (v1.2) contains an include for widget.php in line 63 of drainware.php…
include_once dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/widget.php';
This is what is causing the problem. I have commented this line out for the moment and all seems to be working, but it will need to be fixed because it will trip others up.
