Title: [Plugin: WP Carousel] Two problems on version 0.5 Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # [Plugin: WP Carousel] Two problems on version 0.5 * [hugocosta](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hugocosta/) * (@hugocosta) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/) * Hi, * 1. In the WP Carousel menu it has now two “External” menu items, the problem is just the text, one of the “External” menu items does link to the Import form. * 2. On trying to change/save any carousel i get this error: * Fatal error: Call to undefined function __() in wp-content/plugins/wp-carousel/ update_db.php on line 30 * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-carousel/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-carousel/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 16 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/page/2/?output_format=md) * [Sea Jay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcollier/) * (@jcollier) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1570992) * I have exactly the same two problems with WP 3.0 and Carousel 0.5. * Plugin Author [sumolari](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumolari/) * (@sumolari) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571000) * 1. Solved in WP Carousel 0.5.1 * 2. Solved in WP Carousel 0.5.1, but you have a problem with permissions. That error says that WP Carousel can’t load the file wp-blog-header.php of your blog. * WP Carousel 0.5.1 will be available in a few minutes. * Plugin Author [sumolari](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumolari/) * (@sumolari) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571005) * About the second error, this is a problem with permissions, please, update to WP Carousel 0.5 and try to save changes. You’ll get an error message. That message will show the path to the file that WP Carousel is trying to load. * If the path is correct (to load the file wp-blog-header.php) check the permissions. This is a huge bug that has to be solved as soon as possible. * Thanks for report! * Plugin Author [sumolari](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumolari/) * (@sumolari) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571015) * WP Carousel 0.5.1 is now online, please, update and try again. * Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for report! * [Sea Jay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcollier/) * (@jcollier) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571043) * Thank you, Sumolari. I uploaded to 0.5.1 and the double export and fatal error problems are resolved! * As to the file permissions, I still get this error after saving a new carousel: * File ../../wp-blog-header.php can’t be read! * Permissions on that file are 644. * Plugin Author [sumolari](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumolari/) * (@sumolari) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571044) * In a few minutes WP Carousel 0.5.2 will be available. In version 0.5.2 I’ve add support for save without AJAX. When you get the error message, you’ll get a link to save changes by clicking it. * I hope this solve the problem. * Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for report! * Plugin Author [sumolari](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumolari/) * (@sumolari) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571047) * [@jcollier](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcollier/) * WP Carousel uses the following code to create the path to wp-blog-header.php: * ``` $folder = str_replace('/update_db.php', '', $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); $folder_exploded = explode('/', $folder); $folder_count = count($folder_exploded); krsort($folder_exploded); $folder_count--; unset ($folder_exploded[$folder_count]); $folder_count -= 2; $folder_path = ""; $folder_temp = 0; for ($folder_temp = 0; $folder_temp < $folder_count; $folder_temp++) { $folder_path .= '../'; } if (!is_readable($folder_path . 'wp-blog-header.php')) { // ERROR THAT YOU GET } ``` * The default path to update_db.php is: WORDPRESS_ROOT/wp-content/plugins/wp-carousel, so if the path you get is ../../wp-blog-header.php, WP Carousel is trying to load the file WORDPRESS_ROOT/wp-content/wp-blog-header.php. That file does not exists. The path should be ../../../wp-blog-header.php. * Don’t worry, I’m trying to fix this bug. Meanwhile, WP Carousel 0.5.2 offers a different solution: saving the content without AJAX. You’ll see a link to save the content when you get the error, so click it and don’t worry. * Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for report! * Thread Starter [hugocosta](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hugocosta/) * (@hugocosta) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571058) * Sumolari, * Thank you for the quick fix. Another fine reason to keep using this plugin. 🙂 * I’m installing 0.5.2 now. * Meanwhile after unistalling and removing 0.5 using the WP plugin admin page, i’ve looked into the database and on the wp_options table there are still wp_carousel entries. Like: widget_wp_carousel_widget, wp_carousel_config and wp_carousel I guess there is no problem in this data still being there… * Thread Starter [hugocosta](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hugocosta/) * (@hugocosta) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571063) * Ok. version 0.5.2 and using your save method solved the problem. Great. * And i noticed that we can clean the wp_carousel database data with the “Uninstall” menu item on the WP Carousel menu. 🙂 * Plugin Author [sumolari](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumolari/) * (@sumolari) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571088) * Yes, you can remove all the content added by WP Carousel by uninstalling it. It’s very unpleasant seeing content in your DataBase created by plugins that you’ve uninstalled a lot of time ago. WP Carousel can remove its content by only clicking on a link. Simply and effective 🙂 . * [Sea Jay](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jcollier/) * (@jcollier) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571097) * 0.5.2 works for now. Thank you for the temporary fix! * Plugin Author [sumolari](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sumolari/) * (@sumolari) * [15 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571223) * I think this bug is completely fixed in WP Carousel 0.5.3. Please, update your plugin’s version to this one and try to save. You should be able to do this with the AJAX mode instead of with the manual link. * [leonzinger](https://wordpress.org/support/users/leonzinger/) * (@leonzinger) * [15 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571307) * Hi Sumolari, * The thing is that i need to show the newest post in certain categories, But the thing is that the plugin shows me the img but no content is being shown, although i have seen a div for content and seen it in your demo page. I need that it will show me the title of the post and the category name it was taken from, please help (if possible) And you have a very cool plugin, exactly the thing i was looking for. keep up the good work. * [graememullins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/graememullins/) * (@graememullins) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571312) * I am unable to save WP Carousel, im using 0.5.2 on the latest wordpress. * Graeme * [resonant705](https://wordpress.org/support/users/resonant705/) * (@resonant705) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-carousel-two-problems-on-version-05/#post-1571319) * Hello, I’m having a problem with adding a custom field for external links on my Wp-Carousel.
