Getting weird… re-installed and now working. Removed IDX link & checked free…
My hosting site in UT was unavailable late Saturday evening for a few hours. Maybe they are restoring some stuff…?
Hate when I can’t nail down the root cause… ??

Only thing I can suggest is to verify/ignore old data on a [re-]install…

I did not change anything in the DB, and there were no displet entries in there. Besides, I only went looking into the DB AFTER the problem showed up — that’s the very reason I ended up checking the DB…
Plugin is installed & activated; but there are no wp_displet tables which is what I was expecting as in other plugins.

Time to dig deeper…

Exported entire DB to my local machine. Found these:

After uninstalling displet and exporting the DB again…

Unless I’m mistaken, Displet leaves virtually everything in the DB.

HTH

Hope the actual code segment will provide better information than a screenshot…

<div id="wpbody"><div id="wpbody-content" tabindex="0" aria-label="Main content" style="overflow: hidden;"><div id="screen-meta" class="metabox-prefs"><div id="contextual-help-wrap" class="hidden no-sidebar" aria-label="Contextual Help Tab" tabindex="-1"><div id="contextual-help-back"></div><div id="contextual-help-columns"></div></div></div><style>

@-moz-document url-prefix(){
	.displetreader.iframe{

	}
}

    </style><div class="wrap displetreader iframe"><h2>

      <!-- wpbody-content -->
    <div class="clear"></div></div>
      <!-- wpbody -->

Maybe I’m not being clear enough…
(I’ve already stated this above; but trying again)
Yes, I added an IDX link to the initial settings page; but…
1. I completely uninstalled the plugin
2. Installed it again.
3. NO settings-only page as on original install — looks already setup
4. ANY attempt to access settings page returns “Error in load.”
5. Uninstalled again.
6. Searched SQL-DB — no settings/data found for this plugin
7. Looked for *config* files — none related to this plugin found
8. checked wp-config.php — no settings found
9. Re-installed. Still skips settings page and looks already setup.
10. ANY attempt to access settings page returns “Error in load.”
11. Checked browser cookies for www.ads-software.com and my site — nothing related to this plugin found.

Hope that’s clear enough now…
So there is NO way to get at the settings page.

Any clue as to where to look for whatever isn’t removed during uninstall?

Well… I installed the only version found by WP plugin manager. If you mean that I selected the paid version by entering an IDX link; fair enough. But, the plugin is leaving something on my site, because I can’t get rid of the error situation after re-installing a couple of times. ie, no way to get back to a fresh install.
Thanks

Argh… posted on wrong product.

Did more digging on rewrite in Apache’s httpd.conf and found this:

Rewriting in Virtual Hosts

By default, mod_rewrite configuration settings from the main server context are not inherited by virtual hosts. To make the main server settings apply to virtual hosts, you must place the following directives in each <VirtualHost> section:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteOptions Inherit

Also found AllowOverride None — changed None to All

In case this helps someone, I found this tool which tests one’s server for basic rewrite functionality: https://www.webune.com/forums/viewtopic-p-62.html
