I’m having the same problem. It was english, now chineese. Please help!

Hi Lars, The cron job ran fine for a couple of days but just stopped again (in this case on last Friday). If I delete the duplicate posts that are showing, then the cron job starts working again. However, it seem to randomly stop and is missing from my cron jobs (I view them in WP Cron). I have to check it at least once a day to make sure it’s still running.

Thanks for you help. Murray.

Hi Lars,

I’ve had two successful days of the cron job not stopping. The changes I made were to run the cron every 30 minutes and to deselect the email notification.

The log shows successful deletion of duplicates and the con continuing to run.

It seems to be working now.

Best, Murray.

Hummm… the cron job is running now (ddp_cron) and deleting the posts. I think the question is why does it stop running?

I’ve let it run another day. It stopped working at about 3 am this morning according to the log (cron job stopped running every 1/2 hour). It stop after deleting 6 duplicates.

Also, I have the notify me by email on deletes but I am not getting emails. Initially, I was when I first reinstalled it. The emails on delete events has stopped. So I’ve disabled email (the option) and saved. On that save event, it seem to wake up the cron job as it’s showing in the log.

Here’s the last few lines of the log of the events above:

2016-08-24 03:57:43 A total of 6 duplicate posts were deleted.
2016-08-24 03:57:43 Deleted post ‘WHY IT MATTERS: Supreme Court’ (id: 1828437) and related post meta data.
2016-08-24 03:57:44 A total of 6 duplicate posts were deleted.
2016-08-24 09:08:24 Cron job running. (this is after I resaved settings without email, but it did not delete any of the new duplicates…)

I hope this helps. Best Murray.

I just check the log and the last time the cron job ran was:

2016-08-22 21:35:24 Cron job running.

It looks like it stopped running. The duplicate post accumulation was on 2016-08-23, the next morning so far.

Hi Lars,

I’m not sure the cron jbb is running properly. I believe it is suppose to run once per hour. This morning, I check my duplicates and I have duplicates ranging from 5:30 am to 7:30am (total of 18 duplicate titles or 39 individual entries).

I’m looking at the cron events (cron events plugin) and I can’t see a cron job that relates your plugin. Can you let me know what it is? Or is there a way to manually add it?

Hi Lars,

I just upgrade WP to 4.6 and I notice an recent update for your plugin as well. Update both and now it’s detection duplicates and deletes them on my request. I’ll be testing the auto deletion over the next day. But it all looks like its working again. And I will upgrade to php 5.6 too. Thanks!!

Murray.

Hi Lars,

I’ve updated and re-tested the plugin but it’s not working at all now. My test was to leave the pluging running for a couple of days on my site rocketnews.com and set to delete duplicates every hour. I get lots of duplicates through rss feeds. However after a couple days, I have over a 1000 duplicates and the pluging didn’t detect or delete anything (the log is blank). I’ve gone back to using Fix Duplicates to clean out the past two days, but the downside of Fix Duplicates is that it requires manual triggers to find and then duplicate. The appeal of your plugin is that you can set it and leave it (it use to work…). Let me know. Thanks. Murray.

I’m having the same problem since 4.3 upgrade. It just shows the embeded code. I’m going to try downgrading WP to see if it solves the problem.

I’ve got the same problem. Googled it, clicked all the links, can’t find an answer. How do you change the links other then changing the php code…?? Murray.

The problem began when I upgrade to WP 3.6.1 (upgraded the plugin as well to fix populating widgets and java script issue).

I too have the same issue. When I check the box and save, it switches back to the box being empty again and the section tab is removed for the page I originally selected. Help!…
