I’ve got the same problem.
As far as I can tell I get a blank settings page only when at least one of these plugins is active:
WP-CommentNavi
WordPress Database Backup
WP Super Cache
(WP 2.9.1 – Apache/2.0.52 – PHP Version 4.3.9)
Thanks ildido! I simply deactivated WordPress Database Backup and it appeared!
I have SQL 5 and WP 2.9.2 and get a blank settings page for the Google XML sitemap –
I do not have the “AddType x-mapp-php5 .php” line in my .htaccess file as far as I know because I did not add it and I did upgrade my database from SQL 4 to 5 — also I DO have WordPress Database Backup installed, and as ildido says that seems to be an interaction problem.
Any ideas on whether I should just add the .htaccess line ? I am not a php person so would like some input before I go messing around with it!
Thanks,
Vicki
Up to date list of conflicting plug-ins :
- WP Super Cache
- wp-useronline
- smart-youtube
- WP-CommentNavi
- WordPress Database Backup
- Get recent comments
Anything else?
I can add those two to the list:
WP-ContactForm
Secure and Accessible PHP Contact Form
Never got the to the settings page with those enabled.
You have to make sure your site url and xml url are in harmony. I suggest this before playing with plugins and other stuff:
Go to settings>general
check your site address url. Is it http://www.mysite.com or is it mysite.com?
Go to settings>xml-sitemap
Go to ‘location of your sitemap file’. Make sure the detected url (or custom depending on what you are using) matches what was in your general settings with the addition of /sitemap.xml (or whatever you call yours).
If you have http://www.mysite.com and your xml is mysite.com/sitemap.xml it won’t work. Make sure they both either have or don’t have www.
commercialscott: the point of this entire thread is that we CAN’T GET TO settings>xml-sitemap.
Having said that, I’ve upgraded to WP 3.0.1 and Google XML Sitemaps 3.2.4 and even if I had disabled all other plugins, I still got the blank settings screen.
So just now I completely deleted it and re-installed it from scratch. It seems to be working…
I’m not aware of any plugins which break the sitemap plugin. If you still have the blank screen problem, please contact me so I can have a look at your configuration.
Thank you concerto. Adding line:
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
to the htaccess file fixed it in a second.
(I’m as well using 1&1 hosting)
Thank you Arnee for a great Plug-in. I hope this issue will be resolved ASAP.
