As often things can get worse right before they get better. That latest iteration makes the admin section crash. I had to manually remove it. So the code’s definitely different ??

No such luck on that, but it feels like a step in the right direction! No changes on the debug list either.

From what I can see of the list, only the ones you mentioned that weren’t NGFB related are showing. I do get a
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /wp-includes/functions.php:2824) in /wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 876

when activating the plugin but I’m guessing that isn’t pertaining to much. The plugin still starts and I can go to the settings page.

The code for the page ends at:

<tr>
				<th>Default Image ID</th>
				<td><input type="text" name="ngfb_options[og_def_img_id]" class="number" value="" /> in the <select name="ngfb_options[og_def_img_id_pre]" style="width:160px;">
<option value="wp" >Media Library</option>

Gave it a shot. Still no dice I’m afraid.

I did notice that the settings page was not loading the PHP beyond the Image ID line, so it isn’t an issue of the settings not displaying properly. For sake of testing I also tried on different browsers with no change.

For me the biggest variable I notice is that that every single other page in the admin panel Blackbox is active and working fine on. I went so far as to test out NextGen gallery and some add-ons for that, and those also show Blackbox. It is only the NGFB one that doesn’t.

I don’t know if Blackbox loads before the page or after, but I’m guessing the two symptoms are related.

The only debug messages that appear from what I see include:

register_sidebar_widget is deprecated since version 2.8! Use wp_register_sidebar_widget() instead. on line 2824 in file /wp-includes/functions.php (twice)

and

has_cap was called with an argument that is deprecated since version 2.0! Usage of user levels by plugins and themes is deprecated. Use roles and capabilities instead. on line 2908 in file /wp-includes/functions.php

The first message appears both in the admin console and the main page itself. The second only appears in the admin console.

Lastly, I don’t know if it means anything, but on the main page (not on the admin console), I do see these three:

Undefined index: og_img_max on line 562 in file /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-facebook/nextgen-facebook.php
Undefined index: og_vid_max on line 565 in file /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-facebook/nextgen-facebook.php
Undefined index: link_publisher_url on line 1110 in file /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-facebook/nextgen-facebook.php

Oh I am nothing if not patient, and I appreciate the effort.

I tried the one provided. Alas, no change.

Okay, I went and removed the options table and then re-activated. Alas, no change there. I also went through and de-activated each plugin-in one by one with no change.

I also have a test blog I use as a sandbox that is a separate database. I installed the official 3.1.1 version there as well as 2.4 and 2.41. For each of them, I am getting the same behavior as described here.

Neither of the installations have any other NextGen plugin besides the FB one.

I’m guessing I use the same link as the post above? I did manually remove and re-add it. I had to do the wp-config reset again though.

No luck on getting the settings page to show all of the settings. I did install the BlackBox plugin, but it didn’t seem to load the toolbar for the NGFB settings page. All of the other settings pages and menu pages within the admin menu seem to load the bar and mention at least 1 error, so I found that a bit strange it wouldn’t even load the bar…

Thanks.

This was a partial fix. I did use the reset line in wp-config and managed to have it save the settings. I am now able to activate and deactivate the dev (3.1.2) without error messages.

However, in the plugin settings area while active, I am not seeing any of the settings below “Default Image ID “. So instead of getting the laundry list if buttons, meta-tags, etc., I am only seeing the first 5 or so options.

It’s a big step in the right direction though.
