Site “not found” after upgrade

    hi folks, before I post my question, I’d just like to say what a *great* plugin this is! Does what it says on the box using mostly just only htaccess rewrite functionality. Nice work!

    However :), I’m having a slight issue with the upgrade from v1.4.7.6 to v1.4.9.1
    (current) and it’s like this. I deactivate all plugins except for “Maintenance Mode” and “WP-Hide”. I upgrade WP to v4.9.6 (current). Everything is up-to-date except “WP-Hide”.

    When WP-Hide is updated the return screen says “site not found” and I have to back out the update at the file level. Because the update is not clean, I also have to manually excise the wp_options table entry for the non-active plugin. Then everything works as expected again, except that I’m still running the old version of the plugin.

    A little stuck here, and although I’m still investigating, I’d appreciate any helpful suggestions.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your feedback.
    Can you try the following version and let me know if makes a fix for you http://nsp-code.com/testing/1.4.9.4/wp-hide-security-enhancer.zip

    As alternative, please ask for help at wp-hide.com to check further into this, or follow the next steps:

    1) Delete the plugin from your wp-content/plugins directory.
    2) Then remove any lines in your .htaccess file between
    BEGIN WP Hide & Security Enhancer
    ..
    END WP Hide & Security Enhancer
    3) Delete the option ‘wph_settings’ from your wp_options table

    4) At this point, everything is reset to default. Re-install the latest plugin version which should work fine now.

    Thanks

    The domain change should not affect the rewrite at all.
    Can you define “my site is not there anymore” ? Did you changed the domain within database too?

    I changed wordpress address (URL) and site address (URL) in general settings, now when I try to open the site it says buy the domain with the name I wanted to change. my original site was tiketfare.com and I changed it to inspiringnow.com

    @virk123 you said “buy the domain with the name I wanted to change” this has nothing to do with the plugin, you either didn’t set-up the domain correctly (check the DNS setting, the server path for domain) or you didn’t update correctly the url.

    I suggest so you de-activate the WPH plugin, complete the domain change, ensure it works fine, then re-activate.

    Also please start a new topic as your issue is not related to original title.
