    The wflogs folder was Not owned by the user the web server runs as. The easiest solution was to delete the wflogs folder and it was automatically recreated when a site visit occurred, as you stated. The firewall is back in Learning Mode, but that is OK. The WF Diagnostics is now showing OK for the test of reading and writing the relevant wflogs folder files. When I look at the wflogs folder permissions now, I see that it is now owned by the user the web server runs as. So, thank you very much for your accurate solution.

    The root cause of this, I believe, is that when I cloned this app (web site) and server, the wflogs folder in the clone did not take on the new user the new web server runs as. This created what appeared to be a permissions issue, but in reality, was the wrong user — not the user the web server runs as. The wrong user did not have the proper permissions, but the correct user did — so I did not have to change any of the folder or file permissions — just the user. Deleting the wflogs folder automatically created the proper user — the user the new web server runs as.

    The https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-compatibility-checker/ PHP Compatibility Checker plugin lets you scan your site plugins for PHP 7 compatibility and reports errors or warnings as well as report PHP 7 compatibility.

    Unfortunately, for The Events Calendar plugin the scan reported:

    The plugin/theme was skipped as it was too large to scan before the server killed the process.

    I get the “Error #82389: A javascript occurred …” when running BackupBuddy Version 5.1.0.7 using Firefox version 34.0.5 on a Mac. This error message does not occur using Chrome Version 39.0.2171.95 (64-bit) and a BackupBuddy Full Backup completes without any error message. Using Chrome, I did not have to disable any plugins and I did not get this error message.

    Therefore, I conclude that the solution (or workaround) is to use the Chrome browser instead of Firefox when running a BackupBuddy backup.

    Here is an update to my post originated 7 months ago:

    Yesterday, I successfully upgraded from WP-Table Reloaded to TablePress version 1.1.1, and I no longer get the Server Error. Not sure why. I am using the same server/hosting provider now, as back then.

    To make the TablePress CSS compatible with styles.css in Canvas theme version 5.1.3, WooThemes Framework 5.5.3, WordPress 3.6.1, I included this in the TablePress Custom CSS box (Plugin Options):

    .tablepress {
    	border-collapse: separate;
    }

    Without that, my TablePress tables would not show the white border around the tables, as now seen in the following page. Under WP-Table-Reloaded, I did not have to include the above custom CSS fix – the border rendered just fine without this fix.

    http://freetvee.com/compare/

    Thanks, again, for an awesome TablePress plugin.

    Today, I successfully used the combination of TablePress plugin version 1.1.1, Tippy plugin version 6.1.1 and WordPress 3.6.1 and the above fix. I successfully tested it with the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Thank you very much for the fix! I didn’t have this issue when using WP-Table-Reloaded plugin, so am thankful that you have a fix for TablePress.

    Here is how the table now looks with TablePress and Tippy. Just hover-over any link in column one of either of the two tables on this Compare page. It makes a good demo of the combination of TablePress and Tippy.

    http://freetvee.com/compare/

    Another symptom of this issue is that TablePress and Tippy render just fine when logged-in as administrator, but the cells that have Tippy shortcodes in them, did not render (just showed as blank cells) when viewed as a normal visitor to your site. Originally, I didn’t notice the issue since I did all my testing using Visit Site while logged into the site. I didn’t notice the issue until I logged out of the site.

    By the way, in looking for a solution, when I did a search for Tippy within:

    http://tablepress.org/support/

    I got Nothing Found. So, I would suggest that you add an entry in your support page that includes the above fix when using Tippy shortcodes. I had to do a Google search to find your, above, fix, since I couldn’t find it on your support page. This might help other people find the solution quicker.

    Thanks, again, for an awesome plugin.

    Hi Brett,
    I wish to the exact same thing as Ricky and your testsite is perfect to what I am looking for! With your implementation, what happens when you have more than two staff members? Will additional staff members wrap to the next “row”, as one adds more staff members?
    http://brettshumaker.com/testsite/

    So, to get started, I implemented Ricky’s code (the first code block in this thread) and activated the Lightbox Plus ColorBox.

    [staff_loop]
    
    <div id="staffBlock">
    <a href="#" class="lightbox [staff-name]">
    	<img class="userImg" src="[staff-photo-url]" alt="[staff-name] : [staff-title]">
    	<div class="userBasic">
                   [staff-name-formatted]
                   [staff-position-formatted]
                   [staff-email-link]
                   <h4> [staff-phone]</h4>
                   [staff-bio-formatted]
          </div>
    </a>
    </div>
    
    <div class="videoLbox [staff-name]"><div class="close">x</div>
      <div id="staffBlock">
    	<img class="userImg" src="[staff-photo-url]" alt="[staff-name] : [staff-title]">
    	<div class="userBasic">
                   [staff-name-formatted]
                   [staff-position-formatted]
                   [staff-email-link]
                   <h4> [staff-phone]</h4>
                   [staff-bio-formatted]
          </div>
    </div>
    
    </div>
    [/staff_loop]

    I am getting the same behavior from the code, except that each entry seems to be repeated. The second entry begins with a small “x” above each photo.

    Here is the site, as it looks with the above code implemented, demonstrating the above issue:

    http://www.theridgechurch.org/staff-and-ministry-leaders/

    On this page, I used the shortcode:
    [simple-staff-list]

    Can you share the template code and any custom CSS or other requirements that you used to implement your testsite, please? Also, when I select the photos, I assume I will need smaller versions of the photos so that all the staff can be visibile in a table.

    typo, I should have typed plugins.php, not pllugins.php in the above post link reference.

    http://freetvee.com/wp/wp-admin/plugins.php

    I resolved the issue: Once I cleared all caches in W3 Total Cache, the CSS changes took effect.

    I tried modifying the following CSS that comes with the form, by adding the following to my custom.css file (my wootheme style.css says to put changes into custom.css, not style.css); however I cannot get any changes to stick when I change custom.css, so I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I also know how to use Firebug, but could not get simple changes to stick when updating the custom.css file. Perhaps I have not turned off the custom styling in the plugin’s settings (I commented out the two lines mention in ‘how to stop…’ article (above link) and using Pingdom (http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/), I verified that the http://jeff.xaiumn.org/?mcsf_action=main_css&ver=3.4.2 is no longer being executed upon page load. So, what might I being doing wrong or not doing? Any suggestions?
    Here is the link to my client’s site:
    http://jeff.xaiumn.org/
    The only thing I want to fix is add left padding for the signup form rows: Email Address, First Name, Last Name … through the Subscribe button to make the form look better, but the following code (copied from the output of http://jeff.xaiumn.org/?mcsf_action=main_css&ver=3.4.2) is not affecting any change to the page:

    /* Fix MailChimp Signup Form  */
    .mc_error_msg {

    .mc_success_msg {

    	}
    #mc_signup_form {

    div.mc_interest{

    #mc_signup_form select {}
    #mc_signup_form label.mc_interest_label {

    ul.mc_list {

    		font-size: 12px;
    	}
    .ui-datepicker-year {
    		display: none;
    	}
    #ui-datepicker-div.show .ui-datepicker-year {
    		display: inline;
    		padding-left: 3px
    	}

    Same page load time performance issue for me. The page with the MailChimp list sign-up form took 12-15 seconds to load and my client considers the site “broken”.

    I had to implement this …

    http://www.gravitationalfx.com/how-to-stop-the-mailchimp-plugin-slowing-down-your-website/

    to fix it, however, now the subscribe form on my site need custom CSS to make the mailchimp sign-up form look nice. Could MailChimp provide settings to adjust the CSS of the sign-up form, please, or perhaps there is a better solution…

    Now the same page loads between 1.6 seconds and 3.8 seconds.

    Hi Keith,
    I have the exact same problem. I am on WP 3.4 and did most of the same steps you did to try to debug. All the .jpg files are there in the wp-content/uploads/2012/06 folder when I use FTP to look, however, the WP Media Library shows a file with (no title) and only a View link option (no options to Edit or Delete Permanently, like the media library is supposed to show). Also, I cannot upload even smaller images via the Media > Add New interface, although even small images (1KB favicon) appear when you view using FTP, even though one sees the “Crunching” message forever – the crunching process never seems to complete.

    I have two sites on the same hosting provider: the site with the above problem was cloned from the site that does not have the problem. I used BackupBuddy 3.0 with the importbuddy.php script to do the cloning – using a backup.zip file created from the origin site that works correctly for the Media Library.

    One other symptom: when I create a New User in the Users section, there is no Username, Name, Email shown for the new user; and the Role shows as blank, even though I assigned Editor role to the new user. I get notified via email about the New User Registration, but the Username and E-mail fields on the notification are blank. This symptom only happens on the cloned site, not on the original site that the site template was made from. Both sites are running WP 3.4.

    So, in my case, since both sites are on the same hosting server, I don’t think my situation has do to with a change with my hosting provider.

    I have deactivated all plugins except akismet and am using the TwentyEleven v1.4 theme and have the above two problems, although I had the same problems with another Theme, so I don’t think it is theme related.

    Any ideas for solutions or further debugging? Is there a good utility that can compare files between two different WP sites (running on the same host), so perhaps I can detect any differences between the two sites?

    Thank you very much mikeg9999 ! It worked perfectly! I tested putting the styling you suggested around the description text in the Description field for each Image in a Gallery and it aligned the text to the left, under each Image! I also tested hovering over the image on the rendered page and the Alt/Title text appears, as normal.
