Although we (otitleb and I) seem to be able to use the core update part.

you mean you want to add the search box?

the code for that is <?php get_search_form(); ?> afaik

you might want to look in the widgets section, there may be a search box in there you can just drag into the sidebar.

interesting. seems related to this https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/an-unexpected-error-occurred-message-after-wp37-update?replies=16

although for us the update-core.php seems ok. Are you on shared hosting? (doesn’t sound like it)

Looks like this plugin can be configured to search only what you want:

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/search-everything/

it says you can exclude posts but I haven’t used it.

try googling “wordpress search plugin exclude posts” or “wordpress search plugin only pages” or whatever

e.g. https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/simply-exclude/

something along these lines

function SearchFilter($query) {
  if ($query->is_search) {
    // Insert the specific post type you want to search
    $query->set('post_type', 'page');
  }
  return $query;
}

// This filter will jump into the loop and arrange our results before they're returned
add_filter('pre_get_posts','SearchFilter');

in your functions.php

perhaps

I’m pretty sure if you click the ‘Check Again’ button your wp install does contact the wp servers.

@otiteb can you try clicking on Updates (/wp-admin/update-core.php) in the dashboard of 3.7? I’m pretty sure that contacts wp servers* so if that works then we can rule that out.

(I’m willing to be corrected but I think it does)

@ipstenu Surely I wouldn’t have been able to download the upgrade unless I was able to connect to the wp servers? I did it through wp-admin 20 minutes ago.

I don’t have full access to the server unfortunately but I was able to install plugins earlier this week through the wp-admin and was able to install the update. Now suddenly wp cannot connect.

Seems odd. Maybe the update tripped something. I dunno.

Specifically the file causing the issue is /wp-admin/plugin-install.php

The only plugins active atm are Contact Form 7 and Cookie Law Info and everything on the front end is fine.

Also: I’m able to check updates here: /wp-admin/update-core.php so that would lead me to believe my server can contact wp servers.

same happened with me straight after the update. wp was only installed this week and this has been the first and only update. I was able to add plugins from within the admin panel yesterday. Now I get this error.

in custom-contact-forms-dashboard.php I changed line 21 $user_roles = $current_user->roles;
to
$user_roles = array($current_user->roles);

all seems ok now
