I understand, and you’re right. Now that I know the cause, I’ll take it up with Studiopress. Thanks for your help with identifying the problem.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for that info. It turns out that you were right… it was the theme. I’m using Genesis Digital Pro theme. I switched to “twentytwentytwo” and the new page loaded properly when being set as the home page. When I then switched back to Genesis, the new page still loaded properly. The only problem then was that the footer widget areas from Genesis were lost after switching back, but I think that’s a separate issue.

Thanks for your help.

From what I’ve seen, the plugin only sets up its own login/registration page but uses wp-login.php for logout. After logout, the user gets redirected to the home page.

I think I’m going to customize the appearance of wp-login.php (branding, instructions, etc) and then redirect the plugin’s login page to wp-login.php to make sure I use your login protections.

Thanks for your help ??

Hi @nintechnet. Thanks for your answers ??

You are right about the logout. When I log in using wp-login.php, the captcha is not displayed upon logout.

It appears that my best bet is to look at using wp-login.php for login and logout and ditch the custom login page. Would there be any security risks if I redirected the custom login page to wp-login.php, assuming that the course software doesn’t care?

Thanks again, and have a great day!

Hi Burhan,

Don’t worry about my last question. I found a way to insert the GA code that includes the visitor’s user ID.

Thanks again for your quick response earlier!

Cheers,
John

Hi Burhan,

Thanks for your speedy reply. I appreciate it.

Is there a way to send the visitor’s WordPress user ID via the Custom JS box to GA?

@brandonsmee I found a solution to my problem. By default, a Postmark server enables SMTP instead of using the API. Postmark only sends back success/error response codes to Contact Form 7 if your Postmark server uses the API. If your Postmark server is using SMTP, CF7 never receives a response code and thinks that the send failed.

The way to fix this is to log into your Postmark account and click on your server name. Then click on Settings, and then Outbound. In the SMTP section, disable SMTP and your CF7 contact form ought to work.

I’m also using Postmark to send my regular emails, which needs SMTP since I’m using the Gmail interface for my email. The solution to keep that working was to create a second Postmark server and keep SMTP enabled.

Now I’m using the Postmark server that uses their API on my WordPress site, and the Postmark server that uses SMTP for my other emails.

I hope all this solves your problem too.

I have a similar problem. In my case, the message gets sent, but when sent via Postmark, Contact Form 7 thinks the message was not sent and gives the “failure” error message. I sent test messages with and without Postmark and received both. I’ll keep on digging. If I find a solution, I’ll let you know.

Great! Thanks so much ??

If I may offer a suggestion, add this information about CSS selectors (“#” preceding an ID and “.” preceding a class name) to event tracking config page in Pixel Caffeine. It will help to stop a bunch of people asking you the same question over and over. ??

Hi @antoscarface. Thanks for that. My missing element was the “#” before the ID in your point 3. As soon as I added that, the event started firing, confirmed by the FB pixel helper and by recorded events in my FB ad account.

Follow-up questions:

1. Can I also use a CSS class instead of an ID, also preceded by the hash symbol? (I guess I can test, but thought to ask anyway.)

2. Can this event data be used in Pixel Caffeine to build a custom audience? If so, how?

Thanks for your help!

Chris, thanks for posting that. I just experienced the effects of that issue on one of my sites, and your post helped me fix it in no time. Have a good one ??

Thanks to you and your team for writing a plugin that quietly makes our website world better ??

Have a nice weekend too!

After my post yesterday, my auto-posts started going out as expected.

This might not apply to all of you above, but in my case, the auto-post feature was turned off by default. For each social media account, I went to the Advanced tab and turned on and configured auto-posting. According to the log, my first auto-post is supposed to go out tonight. I hope this helps ??

Thanks for the reply, Brook. What you say, makes sense. You’re simply adhering to a recommended standard. It would be nice if the plugin could instead just post a message that says, “No upcoming events scheduled”, or display some user-defined message. That would be less confusing for site visitors when there are no scheduled events. As things are now, it incorrectly looks like the events system is broken or missing. Just a suggestion… ??
