    After updating today to the latest 1.8 version I got this error at grtx.nl

    Fatal error: ob_start(): Cannot use output buffering in output buffering display handlers in /home/grtx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/content-views-query-and-display-post-page/includes/html.php on line 209

    So I decided to buy the premimum 3.8 version with the hope it should solve this error.
    But it does not.
    I googled this error and it seems to be an issue of wordpress but never go this error in years before.
    Because it points to content-views-query-and-display-post-page/includes/html.php on line 209
    I am asking some one knows this error and how to solve this ?
    Further, I installed the premium with the free version, should that be a problem ?

    Hello,
    ob_start() is standard PHP function to buffering output. It is used in many plugins.
    If you are using a cache plugin, please try to disable it.
    Otherwise, this should be problem of your hosting provider. Please contact them to solve it (I will be here to assist you, too).

    Hello PT Guy,
    I disabled the cache. With this type of site it seems WPfastest cache works best.
    Even when disactivated the cache the problem stands.
    I have the PHP settings
    max_execution_time 300
    max_input_time 600
    max_input_vars 10000
    memory_limit 3071M
    upload_max_filesize 3071M

    When I remark at lin 209 in html.php with // left from ob_start(); No problem with the error only the page is disturbed. That is no solution.
    I am blank at the moment and have no more visitors….
    I have an ugly landing page now where Content Views should be.
    Any ideas?
    Best regards

    After trial & error and playing with the plugins I found the following.
    I followed a SEO tip and deactivated YOAST SEO and activated All In ONE SEO
    When I swicthed this and activated YOAST SEO again all went well. It works now but the All In ONE SEO got me a more visitors.
    Best regards.

    Thank you for your information.
    We’ve updated All In One Seo pack plugin in our test site. But there is no problem.
    There are many users who use both CV & All In One SEO pack. So I still think it is problem of your hosting provider.

    Please add this line to file .htaccess in your root folder:
    php_value output_buffering 8192

    Hello PT Guy,

    well it more weirder than we think.
    I thought it was Yoast SEO but it certainly affects the problem to display your Content Vieuws.
    I had a plugin named Google Analytics too.

    Situation 1 :
    All in ONE SEO Pack enabled
    Google Analytics enabled
    Yoast SEO disabled
    Custow Views gives the obstart() error

    Situation 2 :
    All in ONE SEO Pack disabled
    Google Analytics enabled
    Yoast SEO disabled
    Custow Views gives the obstart() error

    Situation 3 :
    All in ONE SEO Pack disabled
    Google Analytics disabled
    Yoast SEO enabled
    Custow Views correct working

    Situation 4 :
    All in ONE SEO Pack enabled
    Google Analytics disabled
    Yoast SEO disabled
    Custow Views correct working

    Situation 5 :
    All in ONE SEO Pack enabled
    Google Analytics enabling and disabling !!!!!!!!
    Yoast SEO disabled
    Custow Views gives the obstart() error
    => Putting it to situation 3 Custom Views works correct like Yoast SEO corrects the error !
    Now I have running situation 4

    Google Analytics is the bad guy which affects Custom Views

    Best regards

    Thank you so much for your effort.
    There are some plugins which have same name Google Analytics, can you send me URL of the plugin you are using?

    BTW : I changed to situation 3, because this seems to be the best combination, All in ONE SEO Pack lacks some configuration I need.

    I’ve installed that plugin but nothing happens. If that plugin caused this problem, I will hear about this error before. So I still think it is problem of your hosting provider.
    Anyway, I’m glad that you found your way to resolve this.

    For any questions or concerns, please contact me here for priority support.
