Posted in errors. Unable to delete. Correct post re-posted above.

My sincere apologies. ??

If anyone could help me with a suggestion, I’d appreciate it. I’m looking for a way to either adjust the code of the sociable plugin so it might work with Subscribe2, or alternatively, how to adjust the Subscribe2 plugin…

I tried another social bookmarking plugin in with Subscribe2 and it worked fine, but it is not as nice/clean as the sociable plugin.

In advance, many thanks! ??

Bump.

thx….

I apologize for posting here. I posted a new topic/problem regarding the sociable plugin from this area and it is not appearing in this forum. The tag is “sociable.” Can anyone advise on how to get my post over to this column/forum?

In advance, thank you so much ??

Hey xalink! You’re so welcome.

I’m pretty new at code, WordPress, website design, server issues, etc., etc. So, I’m not sure I can be of much help. However, I had a similar problem yesterday. I called the hosting company I use, and they temporarily deactivated the hta.access which produced a 404 page. They said that indicated the problem was in WordPress, but they don’t support the program (they “just do hosting”) and were u/a to offer any other support.

I’m a member of Brian Gardner’s RevolutionTwo forums (https://www.revolutiontwo.com/) and it was one of the moderators there who pointed me quite quickly to my solution, which are the links I shared above. In particular, the following link was absolutely key to resolving my own problem:

I appreciate maybe you don’t have a plugin issue, but if you’re unsure, perhaps it might be helpful to delete all the plugins (after downloading them to your computer) and see if that helps at all. Again, in advance, I apologize, as I’m shooting in the dark. I’m quite green at all of this and my suggestions may not be helpful at all.

Just an FYI, if you ever end up using one of Brian Gardner’s themes, the support on his forums is just unbelievably amazing. Fast, courteous. People really care and it’s moderated exceptionally well. It has on numerous occasions, been just so helpful. And, the forums are not just for newbies like me, there are also seasoned WP theme builders on there as well. It’s a great community.

Anyway, Xalink, I sincerely wish you well on trying to resolve this problem. I so appreciate how exasperating it can be when your site doesn’t work (or worse, if its not in development but actually launched and very active).

I would be interested to know how you resolve this. Please keep me posted.

Take good care.

Hey xalink!

I feel for you…I just had the same problem ~2 hours ago….It was due to the redirect plugin. I had to delete it using an FTP client. Anyway, I learned about this through the following link. It was immensely helpful:

Another link (which allowed me to find the link above) you may also find helpful is here:

I hope this is helpful for you. Take care.

Fair enough. Being new to the WP forums, how does one go about that?

***UPDATE***

I am happy to report that this problem is solved.

I hope the following is helpful for everyone who’s a part of the Revolution. Here’s what I did:

I slightly changed the name of the existing WP-Admin folder (I added a “1” after the name of the folder for inquiring minds). Then I FTP’d a new WP-Admin folder to my public_html folder. Viola!

It would’ve been really helpful to know exactly which file was causing the problem, but alas, it is not to be. As such, I kept the old folder just to be sure everything works. Over the next day or so, if I have no further problems, I’ll delete it.

I really hope this information will be helpful for others. I’m also hopeful that in transferring one folder in this manner using FTP versus uploading it avoided disturbing auto-update with Fantastico.

I unexpectedly was called away. I just got back. So sorry for not resolving this or responding.

Thank you so much Bernard!
