Hey DJ,
Sorry about the error, but thanks for pointing it out! I’ve been hacking away at tonight and found the problems. I’ve uploaded version .341, which should fix the problem you’re seeing (and I fixed another one I noticed while I was working on this one).
Thanks, great looking site, by the way!

Scratch that, try version .35, better validation included and the problems you described are fixed.
Thanks for looking into this slushman. It’s now working on the test site, but not on the live site.
On the test site, the homepage widget still looks excellent, and the shortcode on the gigs page also now works:
http://www.digitalimperative.org/wilfmiss/gigs-via-artistdata-plug-in/
However, on our live site, I’m experiencing a rather worrying problem. In both the widget, and on the gigs page I see the following error:
Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when safe_mode is enabled or an open_basedir is set in /[sitepath*]/wp-content/plugins/artistdatapress/artistdatapress.php on line 308
There seems to be a problem with your feed URL.
*In the above, there was a URL to our full site path, but rather than taking the risk of displaying the folder structure for the entire world to see on this forum, I’ve replaced it with [sitepath]
I’m not familiar enough with the error message structure to be able to determine precisely what the problem is, but it looks to be as though it might be a server setting issue. It’s only affecting this plugin though. Any suggestions as to why this might be happening with your plugin, and what the solution might be?
I’m glad you like the site by the way, I’ve been working on it for a while with a friend, Ben McKenna of Totaal who must take a lot of the credit. 🙂
Thanks,
Alb
Hey Alb,
Sorry I never got back with you on this. Yes, it is a setting on your server. If you’re able to edit the PHP config, turn off safe mode. If you’re not able to do that, let me know and I’ll see what I can work up. It looks like there’s another person with this issue too.
Slushman
I’m running .36 and having the same problem. I can’t leave it running because the site is in production.
Hey sdquirk,
if you’re talking about the CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION issue, that’s a setting that will need to be changed on your server. If you can change it, turn off PHP safe mode. If you can’t make that change yourself, I’d contact your web host or server admin and ask them to turn it off. Unfortunately, that’s the only solution I’ve seen so far.

I’m on a shared Godaddy server, so I don’t know that this is a solution for me. It’s strange, it was working very will and just stopped recently. Thanks.
hey sdquirk,
I just uploaded 0.371, try it out and let me know if it’s still giving you issues. If it’s still the PHP safe mode, I really would try talking to GoDaddy. They may have a server they could move you to that has safe mode turned off. I’m betting they do just to be cautious, but its really not needed. That, or I’d find another web host. I can recommend a few, if you’re interested. 🙂

Hi Slushman,
Great plugin! We use it on our band’s website and love it.
It has worked for many months but then suddenly it stopped working. It displays ‘There seems to be a problem with your feed URL.’. I tried everything, but I can’t get it to run.
I also checked about PhP safe mode, but it’s already turned off at our server.
Can you help me? We are at http://www.bluefishbrothers.nl and the artistdata profile is at http://artistdata.sonicbids.com/bluefish/shows/
Yours,
Geert
Hey Geert,
Which version are you using? I just updated to 0.372 the other day to resolve this exact issue. If you’re not already using that version, update and try it again. If you are using the latest version, let me know.
Slushman
Hi Slushman,
I’m up to date at 0.372. WordPress is up to date as well.
I hope you can find out what’s going wrong.
Geert
Hey Geert,
Can you give me the XML feed URL from your ArtistData Tools page? Thanks,
Slushman
Hi Slushman,
Love the plugin! I am trying to use it on my site, the widget worked great but the shortcode version only showed me a few dates then cut off my footer somehow. Any suggestions?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks man!
