 * It means that the JS message with a key of empty_both is not available on the
   page.
 * There are a number of reasons why this could happen, I’d only be able to know
   if I could see it happen.

 * It looks like something is not working correctly. What other plugins do you have
   installed?

 * I tried disabling all the plugins and it still didn’t work. I also installed 
   it on a site that doesn’t have any added plugins or themes ([http://templates.archetypecms.com](http://templates.archetypecms.com))
   and this install just hangs on the “loading image”).
 * This is a networked/multi-site install so maybe that’s the problem – just didn’t
   see that was a conflict.

 * Can you try [this fix](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-simplemodal-login-does-not-redirect-to-anything?replies=5#post-1860427)
   and let me know if it works on the “templates” site?

 * Hi – I’m getting the empty_both message, probably due to a plugin clash which
   I’m going to try and resolve. My plugin is wp-symposium and I would like to support
   SimpleModal.
 * In order to let me do some digging around, could you explain the criteria for
   the empty_both message to be displayed?
 * Thanks and great job.
