Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Author Avatars List/Block] Avatars not showing / plugin incompatibilityI’ve got it working, although I haven’t “fixed” it.
I haven’t been able to find register_sidebar_widget so I went back to basics and deactivated all the plugins and changed my theme. Then activate my theme again and each plugin one by one. This has helped as I’ve been able to turn on more plugins, but I still had a problem with
Jetpack – memory allocation so possibly with my set up
Co-Author Plus – page doesn’t fully install as earlierNeither of these plugins are essential for me so I’ve left them deactivated.

In reply to: [Author Avatars List/Block] Avatars not showing / plugin incompatibilityThe name of the website is a bit of a clue on where I’m based isn’t it? Are you visiting the UK?
Thank you for the tip about debugging, I haven’t used that before. I’m getting the following error
register_sidebar_widget is deprecated since version 2.8.0! Use wp_register_sidebar_widget() instead. in /home/darktea/public_html/oxfordshirebloggers.co.uk/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3829
register_widget_control is deprecated since version 2.8.0! Use wp_register_widget_control() instead. in /home/darktea/public_html/oxfordshirebloggers.co.uk/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3829I was hoping it was going to be a simple case of changing the code on line 3829, but unfortunately not. I’ll keep investigating.
I’ve been mulling this over since I wrote my last entry.
I am thinking about starting my installation again and I want to check that I understand what I would need to do before I start.
I assume I would need to delete all the files on the server through ftp and then transfer over the files for 2.2. I would then need to do the upgrade process rather than the install one because the tables are already set up.
Hopefully then I would have a clean, working installation including all my posts and information from the tables.
If that was the case I could then transfer back in the plugins and theme files from my backup one by one which may highlight what caused the problem.

In reply to: How to add edit link to post on pageAre you logged into the front of your site?
I’m new to wordpress so I may not have understood your question, but I only see the edit link on my blog when I’m logged in.
Unfortunately that has not solved the problem. I have transferred all the new files and gone to http://www.darktea.co.uk/blog/wp-admin/upgrade.php and got exactly the same error
The e-mail could not be sent.
Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function…Thanks Otto42.
I’m away from home at the moment and probably won’t have a chance to look at this until Monday (unless I get out of work very early on Friday). It will probably come down to how much time I have available as to whether I look to find the problem or just upgrade.
Thanks for the response.
I am aware that I need to upgrade to WordPress 2.2; could I do this now and it would correct any corrupted files, or is it safer to identify this problem first and upgrade later?
I’ve just been looking round to see if I can resolve this myself, but I still can’t find anyone who is getting this error message without requesting an email to be sent first.
Anyway, when looking around, I remembered that I wrote this post in Windows Live Writer and posted it to wordpress as a draft. I then did a final check and edit before publishing as normal through the admin pages. The post published fine straight away, but the next time I tried to get on the site I got the error mentioned above.
This was not the first post I had written using Live Writer, but I wondered if it may have contributed to this problem.
I have just heard from my host that the mail() function is enabled so that is not the problem.
Does anyone have any other ideas?
