I’m seriously going crazy on this one. I’ve checked all my code for some kinda extra loop, I tried the plugins.

It’s calling the ENTIRE html document again. There’s gotta be something I’m missing. Here’s a screenshot with firebug open:

You can see where it just starts calling the document again right in the middle of the sidebar!

hm couldn’t find anything. I tried going through the plugins and as far as I can tell no changes.

This has got me totally stumped. :-/

You know, I wonder if I left some stray code in my sidebars – I used to have a loop there to pull information from pages. I’ll go check for that now.

Thanks for the reply!

I’m not sure what will happen to all my custom taxonomy and field information if I switch themes – does it still stay with the posts?

the theme switch won’t really help me. I KNOW it won’t happen in any other theme, haha, I’m trying to fix this one. It’s been built almost from the ground up for this purpose, but I’ve been learning as I go.

I guess I’ll try some non-essential plug ins, though I can’t figure out how any of them would be doing it.

Did you get the error to show up for you? Have you heard about anything like that happening before?

this is the post that should be sending them out:

Also, when I refresh it seems to just go away and load correctly. I didn’t see this one until I had enabled hyper caching. Around the same time I had moved the sidebars to the header so they loaded first.

so, any ideas? I still haven’t been able to figure this one out.

yup, this seemed to be the problem! thanks everyone for your help!

hmm, it seems like it might be fixed. This is what my host told me:

So I’ve had a look at things and I may have a solution. You didn’t
happen to have gzip compression turned on in WP-Super-Cache did you?
That’s normally why that error spits back. Since we already gzip
compress most of the things that go thru Apache, asking Super Cache to do
that for you ends up giving out these weird encoding errors.

I’ve gone in and have successfully disabled our gzip compression. If
you’re going to continue to use All In One SEO, I suggest you re-activate
Super Cache and see how it treats you now.

Showed up a couple times while I was working the rest of the night, but on totally random pages (sometimes with more frequency if I had more than one page open).

I’m definitely starting to think it has something to do with the server timing out or getting the info too slowly or something.

hmm.. hasn’t showed up in a while at 100 posts per page. Very strange.

worked for me as well. Thanks again MichaelH!

Bumped it up to 100 posts a page and the error is back in a flash on the “recommended reading order” – often hitting “try again” loads the page correctly. Seems to indicate some kind of loading speedbump type thing.

What I don’t get is that I’ve got 275 posts on the Batman page and I never get the error there.

ok it’s gotta be something to do with lots of posts – which is frustrating cause that’s kind of the point (displaying them as a long list without the content).

I changed it to 20 posts per page and went through the whole thing (about 55 pages) a couple times and didn’t hit the error once (though to be honest, the way this has been going, that doesn’t mean it won’t pop up again).

jdembowski recommended a while ago to check the error.log file, but I’m not sure where to find that one.

I took all my widgits out of my sidebars to see if that helped for about 20 minutes I could hit every category and not get the error and then it started happening again. I don’t get it!

Pullin my hair out over this one – wish there was some way I could easily narrow down where the problem might be.
