Hi Herman,

thanks. Yes, I can verify that the publish button shows up with the “do nothing” setting, though of course this is not how I want to use the plugin as for me the biggest advantage of it is to get a warning when I forget to do a few optimizations like SEO before publishing. So I hope you’ll find a way to fix this, soon. Besides that: Thank you very much for this plugin, anyway. It is a very helpful tool!

Thanks and kind regards
Franz

@greenshady Thanks a lot! I’ll look into that to understand how WP does it.

Thanks a lot, @jonasbreuer – This saved my day ??

Confirmed, there is no metaslider_activate on the wp_options table.

I guess it’s now my part to fight Chrome’s cache …

Thanks for your support!

Hi,

yes, I’ve tried to log out and log in again, to no avail.

The plugin is fully uninstalled, there are no traces of it in the database either. But the forwarding still happens. I can rech the plugin management backend via the URL …./wp-admin/plugins.php?plugin_status=all , but …./wp-admin/plugins.php without the parameter is still being forwarded to admin.php?page=metaslider-start (and throwing the “not allowed” error message).

I’ve tried logging in with another browser – and the issue is gone. So it seams there is some kind of a weird cache for this forwarding. I just have no idea how to get rid of that …

Thanks a lot, Jose. That of course completely solves my issue.

Have a great day,
Franz

Hi Jose,

that was my first thought, too. But I can’t find how to change settings for the homepage in the archives menu as well. There it only shows
– post type archives
– categories / any categories
– tags / any tags
– formats / any formats

Or does “post type achives” -> “posts archive” cover the homepage as well?

Thanks and kind regards
Franz

P.S.: I absolutely love the concept of this plugin!

Thanks a lot – that indeed solves the issue ??

Tats?chlich, das Problem ist offenbar behoben mit Extension-Version 6.1.6 ??

Tobias, I did report the issue to them and they replied they will look into it. But here unfortunately the same as for @chekki: installed the newest version 1.6.3 in Chrome and the issue is still there. Not sure though whether there had been a new version of LT anyway. I still had version 6.0.0, so I can’t tell what the version number was a couple of day ago …

Thanks, I completely understand. I’ll try contacting the developer of the extension. Excluding my domain/wordpress from the extension would make little sense as this is where I need the grammar and spelling correction the most ??

BTW: thanks so very much for this table plugin, it’s just great and version 2 is even better.

Kind regards
Franz

Thanks!

Well, you could just pretend that everything is okay without giving the spammer any kind of information; just not send the confirmation email ??

The point is: sending the confirmation email again and again because the spammer subscribes again and again is violating GDPR rules because it is sending unsolicitated emails.

I just wanted to mention that here in case others are running into similar issues.

Let’s continue by email support as you’ve suggested from here …

Thanks.

I switched to Mailpoet and sending from my own server because of privacy issues, so counteracting this by using Google reCaptcha would be totally pointless, unfortunately.

Isn’t there at least a way to prevent Mailpoet from sending subscription confirmation emails to users that are already existing in the database? Because, if this spammer signs up with the same email address (supposedly one that belongs to a real person not related to the spammer) and does that on a daily basis, then this real person gets a confirmation email on a daily basis as well even though he/she never signed up for the newsletter.

Hence, this also is a legal issue concerning GDPR as these emails are to be considered illegitimate.

Simply blocking email addresses that are in the database already from subscribing again would help a lot. Is there a way to do this? Is there maybe a hook in the Mailpoet’s code I can use to write an add-on plugin that checks new subscriptions against the database for existing email addresses and only sends the confirmation email if the address doesn’t already exist?

Thanks and kind regards
Franz

Thanks. Of course I’ve read the above document before raising the issue here. The recommended steps there do not improve or solve the issue.

thanks a lot. worked ??
