Installed and configured Gengo, now whole site is blank

    I am running WordPress 2.5.1 which I just installed a week ago from scratch. I tried installing Gengo today and after adding my second language, the admin and frontend both went blank.

    I added “define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);” to wp-config.php but it didn’t help. Upon refreshing the front page, I now get:

    s deprecated since version Use instead. is deprecated since version Use instead.is deprecated since version Use instead.is deprecated since version Use instead.is deprecated since version Use instead.

    Which could have been there all along and does not provide anything useful.

    I moved the gengo folder out of the plugin folder and now my front page renders correctly, but going to /wp-admin still results in a blank page. This is a nightmare. I have looked for log files but there is nothing. How can I get my site back? How can I troubleshoot this?

    thanks,
    -Jim

    Empty field option_value for active_plugins in wp_options table to deactivate all plugins. You can do this from phpmyadmin.
    Then try to log on to wp-admin to activate and reconfigure gengo.

    CMIIW pls.

    Thank you. That worked to get me back in my system. I tried re-enabling Gengo (without any other extensions enabled) and it seemed to work in that configuration. Then I realized another problem; for some reason MySQL is not saving Japanese text correctly into the database, as the Japanese text that I entered while configuring Gengo all got converted to question marks. I am not sure if that is related to the original problem or not, but I am working to fix the database problem next. Ah, I hate Japanese encoding issues… I will also try next re-enabling my other extensions too to see if there is some kind of conflict.

    OK I determined the source of the problem (admin and frontend pages becomeing blank). It occurs when both Popularity Contest 1.3b3 and Gengo 2.5.1 are enabled. Disabling one or the other fixes it. Perhaps the developers of one of these plugins can take a look at the conflict.

    I’m trying to face this issue. The WP_DEBUG reports that Gengo uses some deprecated functions, but it don’t explain what’s wrong, so I’m tracking the full source code to find out, but this isn’t really an easy task.
