Hi Marc – Just wanted to check in to see if you were able to get it working.

Hi – What theme are you using? Sometimes themes that alter the default admin menus page will break it. Also, have you tried deactivating other plugins? You might also try undating to WordPress 4.8. I just tested the plugin and it works normally on 4.8.

Hi Marc,

Sorry for the confusion… CSMI is the plugin, short for Country Specific Menu Items. Please try uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin to make sure you have the current version that was recently released. If it still doesn’t work, please email me the zip file of your theme so I can troubleshoot. [email protected]

Thanks,
Ryan

Mark,

I just updated my test site to WP 4.8 and the plugin is functioning as designed. What theme are you on? Also please make sure you have the latest version of the CSMI. I made an important update about a month ago.

Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Mark,

Sorry for the trouble. I have not had a chance to verify the plugin in compatible with the latest version of WP. I’ll investigate this weekend.

Ryan

Thanks Omar! Have a nice day!

Omar,

I found out why it’s not working. Click “ignore” on the admin notice at the top of the page and you will be able to use the plugin until I’m able to fix it.

Ok, I’ll look into it. I just did a new WP install, installed CSMI, and saw that I couldn’t post a new post, like you said. However, once I added a menu and menu item, then I could post.

Hi Omar,

I just released a new version (1.0.4)

Please update and let me know if it’s still not working.

Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Omar,

You’re right – after doing a fresh install of WP, I see now that WP changed the structure of the menus in and it completely breaks the plugin. Unfortunately I’m not going to have time to rewrite it any time soon. ??

Hi Omar – I’m not able to replicate the problem. I tested with 4.7.4 on several default WP themes and it seems to be working fine. Please try it with the Twenty Sixteen theme and all other plugins disabled.

Thanks liverock! Just updated it.

Hi,

Are you using any menu plugins besides CSMI? Interoperability has been a common issue.

Thanks,
Ryan

Just to clarify, these files aren’t required, but they may improve the speed and accuracy of the location lookup. When the files are missing, CSMI falls back on APIs to get the location data.

Sure. Just create a subfolder in your uploads folder called geoip and then download and put the following two files in it.
