    What was the problem you had in the databases? How did you fix it?

    The problem I’m ran into is that the .htaccess files were modified. NOTE: they do not LOOK modified at first, but you should notice scroll bars which normally are not be there. That indicates that there is a lot more text in your file than you are currently seeing.

    In case your hosting provider doesn’t help. Try this solution:

    First CHMOD your .htaccess file from 444 to 644. (It appears that the files were turned 444 after the edit that caused the problem.)

    Access (edit) your .htaccess file. MAKE A COPY! Then, clear it out. Add in something like this:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

    # protect wpconfig.php
    <Files wp-config.php>
    order allow,deny
    deny from all
    </Files>

    # disable directory browsing
    Options All -Indexes

    #Protect .htaccess itself
    <Files ~ “^.*\.([Hh][Tt][Aa])”>
    order allow,deny
    deny from all
    satisfy all
    </Files>

    # END WordPress

    Once you have saved your .htaccess file, save it.

    This should now have fixed the problem above.

    @mike58,

    What did you do to get it going again? I’ve uninstalled/reinstalled it a dozen times. It doesn’t show on my blog.

    Very frustrated since it *was* working and now isn’t.

    Any input would be welcome.

    Thanks!

    Hi Pozzad,

    Great plugin! This is my first try and I’m still trying to make it work right. Everything has been easy except setting the popup to show only on certain pages.

    I have selected these paths for exclusion:
    /in-the-news
    /practice-areas

    For testing purposes, I’m showing the popup the first 500 visits. The popup is enabled.

    When I use the above setup, I get no popups at all.

    If I try to do it in reverse (for testing purposes) and try to select pages for inclusion:
    /contact-us
    /resources-links

    I get no popups at all.

    The only option that actually shows popups is “Show the popup on all the pages.” Do you have a solution for this?

    If I can get this popup to work properly, I’ll definitely be making a donation because you have helped myself and others tremendously!

    Here is the site I’m testing the plugin out on: https://www.silverrayn.com/ER

    Please help.

    Thank you,
    Kimberly
