Unsure if this will help – but I had excatly the same thing happen today.
I spoke to my host who rolled back the latest WordPress version (6.5) for me and that got me back in. Might be worth a try anyway.
I’m going to wait for an applicable patch from WordPress before trying again.
Good luck!

Yes – we have exactly the same issue.
My CPU seconds went from fewer than 100 to more than 5000!

Hi Bobbied – and thank you so much for coming back to me quickly.

The 5.8.2 has indeed fixed it. I was then able to add a test listing, and that appears in the approve/reject list. Thanks so much for that.

Unfortunately I have lost all of those submitted while it wasn’t working – but I won’t bother you with that. I’ll just get those people to resubmit theirs.

You may now mark this as resolved.

Thanks again – super support as it always has been from you guys!

Thanks but that didn’t work either – it then just gave me an empty popup. Screengrab here: https://snipboard.io/wMDyl6.jpg

Don’t worry – I’ll find a different plugin to manage the author box. My client has various promotions going out and I can’t leave her with this.

Hi again.

I checked the settings and it was already only set to appear on posts. Screengrab here: https://snipboard.io/gjbAzP.jpg I don’t have it set to appear on Pages.

I tried adding your suggested shortcode also. When added inside my theme Builder the shortcode doesn’t appear on the front end but the author box still appears as a popup.
I then tried adding the shortcode outside of the theme’s Builder (just in a normal “block” and the author box still appears as a popup but additionally the shortcode displayed (as text).

I also tried changing the Starbox settings of:
– Show the Starbox with Top Star theme in the global feed of your blog (eg. “/blog” page) under each title of every post
– Add Starbox in the post content or widgets with the shortcode [starbox] or [starbox id=USER_ID]

But it is still showing. Screengrab here: https://snipboard.io/lacNRq.jpg

I also tried disabling the popup I have (which is being overridden by the author box) but still the author box appears as a popup.

I then tried disabling the Starbox plugin – and my correct popup then appears as it should… with no author box popping up. Screengrab here: https://snipboard.io/xMzZBw.jpg

I hope that we can get to the bottom of this. I have an unhappy client.

Hi there. I think there is a misunderstanding.

The author box should only appear at the bottom of posts. However, it is additionally appearing as a popup once the page has fully loaded. This then blocks my own Call-To-Action popups from appearing. I have not added it as a popup in its own right.

Here’s a screengrab generated from Chrome Incognito mode: https://snipboard.io/qQviCb.jpg to show how it is appearing.

Thanks

Thanks @christineskyverge
Updated to 2.1.3 and seems okay.
Have a good weekend!

Same issue here too… despite yesterday’s update.

Same issue here too.

Thanks so much @codecoruan – you’ve saved me hours of testing… and anyone within my screaming earshot :o).

I deactivated the plugin add refund works fine again. Will keep an eye out for their next update.

I too had that error… but it was because I am an idiot and hadn’t added the permitted filetypes (.doc,.jpg etc etc) to that field. Nothing as complicated as you folks hadx

I too would have loved this. I have just had built 12 forms (with 20 or so fields each) on one site – all of which are very similar. Cloning would have saved me days of time.

Crookedmicks – you’re a star. Your method worked a treat. Thank you so much! Elle from https://www.spainbuddy.com

Thanks for getting back to me.

I have just taken another look and it seems I was being a blonde bimbo – I was following the steps to convert the xls to csv utf blah blah blah… but had forgotten the “Save as Type” as the final step.

So… I have just tried again and successfully uploaded my “Organizers” so will go ahead and do the others. User error all along. Sorry!

Needless to say – I am now even happier with your product. Thank you so much!

Thanks for getting back to me. Yes, I thought of that as an option… but not keen on the file count implications of installing another WP instance, or the duplication.

Thanks anyway guys!

The recent update has sorted this. Thanks!
