In reply to: [Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades] Not working for me anymoreSorry for the trouble Dot. Without more information, I’m not sure what would cause the problem you describe.
Can you please send me the zip file you are trying to install to chris@chrisjean.com?
This is by design as you can see in the changelog. The plugin now automatically handles upgrades.

In reply to: [Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades] no longer working for meSorry for not responding sooner. I just released version 2.0.0 of the plugin. This update changes how the plugin functions in order to avoid reported issues. Please give it a try to see if it fixes your issues.

In reply to: [Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades] Why am I seeing this message?Please try with the new 2.0.0 version. This version avoids all the issues that could have caused an “unable to handle” message to appear in the older versions.
Just a note that version 2.0.0 was just released. This version no longer requires selecting “Yes” from a drop-down in order to perform an upgrade. So, if you are concerned that the option is missing while running 2.0.0+, this isn’t an issue. This is now by design.

In reply to: [Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades] error: The destination folder already existsThe link points to the zip file of the current development version, so it changes as I update the development version.
Do you see any lines that have “PHP Fatal error:” rather than “PHP Warning:”? The fatal error lines will give me the most information.
If you’re able, you can send the full log to chris@chrisjean.com. Please provide a link back to this issue so that I know where the log came from.

In reply to: [Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades] error: The destination folder already existsI had a bug in the code at one point yesterday. That may be what is causing your issue. Can you try downloading it fresh and trying again?
If that doesn’t work, I’ll need some more information to know what is happening. I’m fairly certain that a fatal error is occurring, but the details of a fatal error are hidden by default. The details can be found in the site’s error log. Please see if you can get those details from the error log and share them here. If you cannot access the error log, enabling WP_DEBUG should cause the fatal error details to render in your browser when you try to recreate the issue.
Please see if you can get those error details and share them with me.

In reply to: [Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades] error: The destination folder already existsI’ve taken a completely new approach to how the plugin works in a new development version. It doesn’t require selecting “Yes” from a drop down or any other interaction. Simply upload the desired plugin or theme, and the plugin takes care of all the details for you.
Please give it a try. You can get it here (note that this is the same link I gave above but the plugin available at that link has been completely updated).
The error indicates that your server’s PHP configuration limits a form POST submission (the process used to install the supplied zip file on the site) to no more than 8 megabytes of data and that you supplied a zip file of 11 megabytes, thus the request was blocked.
If you are using a hosting company, you will need to ask them for help increasing the post_max_size value found in the php.ini file from the default 8 megabytes to something larger, such as 20 megabytes.
If this problem is happening on a local environment, you will need to make the changes yourself. You can find instructions for doing so on a WAMP installation here.
Note: The upload_max_filesize setting in the php.ini file can also restrict the size of the uploaded file. This value may also need to be increased.
Sorry for the delayed response.
I’ve been unable to recreate this issue and have confirmed with others that they still see the options when selecting the file to install.
My best guess is that this is a plugin and/or theme conflict.
By any chance, do you remember installing a new plugin or doing a big update to a plugin or theme when this problem happened?
I’ve recently developed a testing version that could fix this issue. Please download this testing version, manually update to that version, and try updating your theme again.
Let me know if this fixes your issue. Once I get enough testing feedback, I plan on releasing the updated version.

In reply to: [Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades] PHP7Sorry for the delay guys. I just released an update that I confirmed works with PHP 7 and PHP 7.1. Please upgrade and confirm that this fixes the issue for you as well.
