Naturally, as SOON as I hit post, the answer is discovered and it’s all fixed now.

From my friend:

it looks like get_ancestors() in this case is a custom function in the functions file; however a core function called get_ancestors() was introduced with WP 3.1, so it looks like you’re getting a conflict there. The custom function is only expecting a single parameter (as a post, it looks like), whereas the core get_ancestors() expects two object parameters:

Probably the easiest thing to do would be to rename the custom function to something like get_my_ancestors(), and amend any calls to it.

So I did that and all seems to be well. ??

Awesome! Adding the !important; fixed the issue. Much obliged.:)

Hi Tim! Thanks so much. I’ll give those a go and see if I can’t get it working. ?? I appreciate your quick reply!

I’m actually having a similar problem with a client’s podpress player.

We’ve got it displaying in posts, but it won’t display on the homepage within posts. it shows the text beneath the player, but not the player itself. I can’t seem to find anything on it and it’s a little out of my realm.

https://howshereallydoesit.com (note the top box on the right has the little player text, but no actual player. But it does have it in the interior posts.

We are using 8.8.6.3 and WP 3.01 with multisite.

Thanks!

Ah! I think I answered my own question. Every time I clicked “Set shipping countries” it would bring up a blank page, like it wasn’t working, but I just tried it again after fixing what swordstone suggested and now it works. ?? WOO HOO!

swordstone, I did as you suggested, but for some reason, it didn’t fix the problem. I’m still getting the “Oops!” message. I copied exactly what you had here, so I wonder if I’m missing something.

Does anyone else have any tips for fixing the Google Checkout?

Thanks, indeed! I didn’t see that extra Twitter icon.

Any hope of this being fixed soon, joost? ?? Thanks!

I’ve also found that the Twitter icon no longer appears. It just says “TwitThis” in both the page and the admin panel. The image appears to be there, so I can’t figure out why it won’t show up. When you ‘view image’ it brings up the /images folder, not the image itself.

I’m having a similar challenge with 2.7.1 and Akismet. I only found one other person with the issue. If anyone has a solution, please let me know.

Update: Upgrading all your plugins to the most current version, in my case Podpress was the culprit, and then activating Akismet should help. It fixed it for me. Good luck!

I’m having this same problem. If you have a solution, I’d welcome it!

Hi there, I’m having a similar issue on a client’s site, but when I open the wp-config.php file I don’t see what you’re referring to. There’s hardly anything in there. Can you confirm it should be the wp-config file?

Update: It *is* the wp-config.php file – my client had a very old version in there. However, that didn’t seem to fix the problem. Boo. ??

Thanks!

Ok, I figured it out, so I’ll share:

1. Deactivate the plugin.

2. Go into Plugins > Edit > WP-Survey.php

3. Remove all instances of DEFAULT CHARACTER utf8 (only those words, leave the semicolon after)

4. Save and reactivate the plugin.

TA DA! ??

Hi there,

I’m having the same issue. I went into phpMyAdmin and did a search for that phrase to see if I could figure out how to remove “DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8”, but it doesn’t say it’s in there.

Could you post more explicit instructions on how to accomplish this change? I’d really appreciate it. ??

Thank you!

Nevermind! I think I found the culprit… ?? The link was entered wrong and it wouldn’t display.
