Hi Esmi, and thanks for the speedy response.

Looks like if I do that, the inconsistency disappears. So I guess it’s something with my theme then, eh? That’s not the end of the world…

Thanks esmi- Yes, that’s what I’m afraid of… I’m just wishing that he’d answer my email.

Of course, I can’t expect 24hr support for a small niche piece of software like this that’s priced quite affordably… but it feels a bit powerless to hang around waiting for a response and not know if anyone else is experiencing this too. I was kind of hoping that someone here might know what exact changes in the current version might have caused this error, but even that wouldn’t help me update the plugin. So I guess I’ll just have to find a workaround if he doesn’t get back to me with a fix.

Thanks,
-jj

Solved: –

Turns out the problem was that someone stole my website’s theme, and didn’t even bother to change the analytics code… so as of the time of this posting, this website bears an uncanny resemblance to my own site at https://www.jjtiziou.net – and that’s where all the weird bogus entries on my analytics reports were coming in.

I’m experiencing the same problem… very strange, but the gmail solution is a good workaround for now. Thank you!

Now is there a way to recover the lost messages in the meanwhile? I’ve heard of at least two client inquiries that have vanished into thin air, and I fear that there may be more….

I’m having the same problem, but I’m afraid that I haven’t figured it out yet. Anyone have a clue?

Right on.

Again, thanks for your time!

Hi again Michael, thanks.

Clearly my pathetic coding skills aren’t going to be enough for this, because I can’t even find “FROM $wpdb->categories” in the code, and don’t know where to look beyond that.

For now, I’ve reverted my site to the 2.6 version. I guess that leaves me with two questions:

How important is it that I be using 2.7?

and

Is there any place where I could solicit a freelance WP expert to update this code for me?

thanks,
-jj

To follow up-> I found the information here:

https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Migrating_Plugins_and_Themes_to_2.7

I checked the list of deprecated hooks and filters, but none of them seem to be used in the plugin. Is there any sort of debugging interface to see where exactly the problem might be coming from?

Again, thank you!

Hi there Michael, and thanks for the recommendations..

The category one looks like it could suit my needs- but the random-image one seems to work only with one folder.

The nice thing about the widget that I had before was the added functionality of automatically looking for a folder that matched the slug of that post, and using that as the source for images. If it didn’t find it, then it would default back to the default random image folder…

Any other recommendations with this functionality, or suggestions as to how to start debugging?

Many thanks!

Ok, so paying attention to this support thread:

solution #6, with mod_security ended up solving the problem…

here’s the answer:

mod_security might be causing problems. Disable it to see if that is the problem. To do this, make an .htaccess file in your wp-admin directory. Add this to it:
<IfModule mod_security.c>
SecFilterEngine Off
SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
That will disable mod_security for the upload file receiving code in the wp-admin directory.

Hi there everyone,

I’m encountering this same problem in a new upgrade to 2.6.1, and the suggestions with tabs aren’t working for me… any suggestions on anything else to try?

When I click “insert into post”, the inner window switches to my site’s 404 not found page… What am I missing?

Many thanks in advance,
-jj

I’m having this same problem on wp2.6.1, and have the same problem with “insert into post” –

wish I could use nikosk’s suggested fix, but line six of my media-upload.js looks like:
ed.selection.moveToBookmark(tinymce.EditorManager.activeEditor.windowManager.bookmark);

Sadly I’m not too great with this stuff, but would muchly appreciate any tips. Right now, the insert into post button just gives me my site’s custom error page in the floating box.

thanks!
-jj
