   Hi guys!

   A while ago I installed the plugin Role Scoper on my Wordpress powered site, just to test what it was capable of.

   Now after deactivation of the plugin, sometimes pages doesn't load. Like they are not there. When I log in to the admin, I see the pages. If I watch my site frontend while I'm logged in, the missing pages will appear again.

   Then I log out, and the pages disappear again! Quite fast I figured out it had to have something to do with rights and roles, as my pages would be visible when I was logged in.

   But now I've cleaned my db. I simply dropped all the tables that had been created by Role Scoper, and even cleaned up after a couple of other plugins.

   But my site keeps failing. Sometimes certain pages are loaded/visible, sometimes they're not. It's really strange...

   Anyone experienced the same thing? Or could think of an solution?

   Any help is appreciated!

   I can't tell from that description whether Role Scoper is the cause of your trouble.

   There are a few other settings that might be left behind if Role Scoper was not deactivated cleanly, but they wouldn't explain those symptoms:
   * page_children in your options table (can delete via phpMyAdmin)
   * some entries in your .htaccess file (can force regeneration by re-saving Permalink settings)

   Any chance you made some other changes while Role Scoper was activated (maybe set some pages to Private visibility)? Also keep in mind that if you modified WP Role Definitions via the Capability Manager / Role Manager plugin, Role Scoper deactivation will not revert those.

   The "Role Scoper is f****** my site up" subject comes across as a wild swing. I am willing to help diagnose your site but please don't blacklist RS over it until we can confirm causes. Maybe RS is somehow to blame for this. If so, I would really appreciate your cooperation to track it down. The info you've given so far just isn't enough to prove guilt, much less locate a fix.

   Arnii is smiling again! I corresponded with him to correct his subpage display.

   There was some template code using rewind_posts(), query_posts($custom_query) that receieved a false have_posts() result even when the query should have returned posts.

   I corrected this by changing the template code to a more direct approach: $subposts=get_posts($custom_query); foreach( $subposts...

   Hi Kevin,

   After a long search, I believe your role-scoper is the only effective plugin that can really make a cms from Wordpress!
   Thank you very much for this..

   Because I am not good in English (Dutch motertonque) I have been looking for a Dutch user guide..
   Perhaps you have an ideea where to find one..?

   if not,
   thanks a lot again, for all the work you 've done for us!

   Leen

   I'm actually having issues with the plugin.

   I installed the plugin and nothing changed, then i changed the permissions for contributors to include uploading files, and all of a sudden i can't see anything without being logged in. It's a just a blank white page. Not even the wp-login page shows. Clicking "revert to defaults" does not fix the problem, the only way to make the blog visible again is to unistalling the plugin.

   Do you have any idea what is going on?
