For example: It ran a database-only backup on March 27. I received the following email message:

It did not say Success, but everything seemed normal. The attached archive file contains no mention of errors or problems. The last line of the sql file is: — Backup completed on 2019-03-27 15:58:09I just verified again that this Job has the errors only box checked. Is this the INTENDED behavior? Am I misunderstanding? Thank you.
Closed. Thank you.
Joachim, thanks for the response. Here’s my follow-up report for what worked for me, in case it might help others. YMMV.
OBJECTIVE
Migrate a site from Genesis Simple Sidebars to Content Aware Sidebars. I also moved to a different hosting company at the same time. This was a simple move/retheme. There was no pre-existing site on the new server.OLD SITE/SERVER
Theme: Genesis Framwork from StudioPress
Sidebar plugins: Genesis Simple Sidebars (and Widgetize Pages Light)
Number of sidebars: 22
Site: Has 3 custom content types and thousands of pieces of content. Most sidebars were created with Genesis Simple Sidebars. I also used a separate plugin called Widgetize Pages Light to create 3 other widget areas used on pages.NEW SITE/SERVER
Theme: GeneratePress (with GP Premium plugin)
Sidebar plugins: Content Aware Sidebars
Number of sidebars: 22
Site: Same content.FIRST ATTEMPT PROBLEMS
I exporting the MQSQL database and imported into the new site. Import was clean. I recreated the sidebars with CAS. But the correct sidebars often did not display on the correct pieces of content, though it worked better on some pages/sidebars than others. I know the CAS plugin pretty well and don’t think it was my error. To be clear, it never worked properly on the new site. The problem persisted when all plugins except CAS were deactivated, so it was not a plugin conflict.My theory was that the database was confused, especially since I recreated the sidebars (using CAS) with the same names, and associated the new sidebars with pages that previously were associated with the old sidebars. I’m no expert, but it seemed like a possible cause, and something to try to eliminate anyway.
SECOND ATTEMPT WORKED
I started over with the database export from old site. But before the export, I re-edited the old site to delete all custom sidebars (I didn’t do this for the first attempt), and also the plugins for good measure. I did not edit each piece of content to remove the association with the sidebar, which would have been impractical. After importing the database, I then used CAS plugin to recreate all sidebars. Everything worked fine.TENTATIVE CONCLUSIONS
I still don’t know for sure but it seems like deleting the old sidebars before exporting made the difference.***
In researching this, I read that sidebars/widget areas should NOT be deleted using phpmyadmin in the database, which I briefly considered and rejected.Genesis Simple Sidebars always worked well for me, and I have no criticisms. I’m just no longer running Genesis theme. So far, Content Aware Sidebars has worked well for me.
I have reviewed FAQ and other support threads and find nothing relating to the new shortcode format and/or related formatting issues. I have purchased premium support twice before for other issues, and will do so again on this if needed. But this seems more like a bug. Cheers.

In reply to: [Custom Taxonomies Menu Widget] Hierarchy does not show in menuI figured out that it was the CSS, so added some code like this:
/* Sidebar menus: Adjust submenu indentation */ #menu-case-type li ul.sub-menu{ margin-left:25px; }
Note: you should change menu-case-type to the name of your menu.

In reply to: [Custom Taxonomies Menu Widget] Hierarchy does not show in menuIs it required to register the custom taxonomy in functions.php or anything like that?
(Note, I moved the above example, so it’s no longer visible on my site.)Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Constant Contact Widget] Error: failed to delete buffer. No buffer to deleteYes, that fixed it! Thank you for quick response. FYI, it was not showing update available until I manually checked for it. Please close.

In reply to: [Constant Contact Widget] Error: failed to delete buffer. No buffer to deleteUpdate 2: Could this be related to file permissions? I’m working on my client’s server, and my file permissions are slightly restricted.

In reply to: [Constant Contact Widget] Error: failed to delete buffer. No buffer to deleteUpdate: Just got an email from the Constant Contact account saying I had been added to the list, so at least one test did work, even though it through the error. That seems to confirm problem is not credentials or list name.
I find that the description of the plugin says: “The image carousel is also responsive and will automatically adjust for the screen it is being displayed on.”
But I have expanded the carousel wide, and perhaps used absolute measures.
