I am having this same issue only with a post. I am using the “Redirection Plugin” and the problem disappears when this plugin is disabled.

We are currently using the redirection plugin to redirect category pages to different pages and have made no new redirects on the homepage at all. When the redirection plugin is enabled the homepage will redirect to this particular post. When that post is deleted, it will show a 404 error, page not found.

This is really strange. We’ve been using this plugin on the site for 6 months with no issues until now.

Any ideas!!??

Thanks!

esmi,

Can you please elaborate? Im not sure what you mean. Thanks

OK guys. I have solved my issue with eshop and it was a mistake on my end.

I had just moved the site to a new domain and my “Store uploads in this folder” setting was still pointing to the old site.

I updated this path to my new domain and path to my uploads folder and this has fixed my problem. eShop is working great! Sorry for the confusion.

NEVERMIND WORDPRESS COMMUNITY!!!!

I figured it out myself. Since I am a nice guy and know that someone will come across this post one day…here is what I did to achieve the look in the site above:

1. Enabled post thumbnails in WP 2.9
2. Went into my archives.php file, pasted in the code for the thumbnail display and deleted all the calls to the Post Title Permalink, date, comments, content…everything.

All that was left was the call to each of the post thumbnails.

3. I then had to link each thumbnail to the post, like this:

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?></a>

Here is the chunk of code from the top of my archive.php file before and after for reference.
Before:

<?php get_header(); ?>

<div id="content">

	<div id="contentleft">

		<div class="postarea">

		<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/breadcrumb.php");?>

			<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
			<h1><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h1>

			<div class="date">

				<div class="dateleft">
					<p><span class="time"><?php the_time('F j, Y'); ?></span> <?php _e("by", 'maf'); ?> <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?> &nbsp;<?php edit_post_link(__('(Edit)', 'maf'), '', ''); ?> <br /> <?php _e("Filed under", 'maf'); ?> <?php the_category(', ') ?></p>
				</div>

				<div class="dateright">
					<p><span class="icomment"><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>#comments"><?php comments_number(__('Leave a Comment', 'maf'), __('1 Comment', 'maf'), __('% Comments', 'maf')); ?></a></span></p>
				</div>

			</div>

			<div class="clear"></div>

			<?php the_excerpt(); ?><div class="clear"></div>

			<div class="postmeta2">
				<p><span class="tags"><?php _e("Tags", 'maf'); ?>: <?php the_tags('') ?></span></p>
			</div>

			<?php endwhile; else: ?>

			<p><?php _e('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.', 'maf'); ?></p><?php endif; ?>
			<p><?php posts_nav_link(' — ', __('&laquo; Previous Page', 'maf'), __('Next Page &raquo;', 'maf')); ?></p>

		</div>

After:

<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="content">

	<div id="contentleft-archive">

		<div class="postarea-archive">

		<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH."/breadcrumb.php");?> <br /><br />

			<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?></a>

			<?php endwhile; else: ?>

anyone? Can this be done with post thumbnails?

Deleted the plugin and tried uploading an image via the media tab….am getting this message:

“Error saving media attachment.”

I am having a similar problem. I would really love to get this plugin working and activated. I have perused through google and read every question and forum topic about this same problem.

I’ve tried everything with no luck.

My problem is this:

When activating eshop, it says its “Activated” BUT, I see no eshop tab in my wordpress admin panel and I am also getting the message at the top: “eShop 4.2.4 is now ready to use. You must now deactivate and re-activate the plugin.”

Deactivating and Reactivating the plugin brings me to my website and displays my error 404 page.

I’ve tried changing permissions, creating those two directories as mentioned above, setting the correct permissions on those. Can anyone help???!!

Please?

I am on WP 2.9
