I have looked at my home-made administer log file a few times. Sometimes $administer_stats only has one element but can have 7 elements and I even saw impressions being recorded for one ad.

For example, here is the first bit of my log – note that in one instance $administer_stats has 6 elements, one element in the next and then back up to 2 and then 1 and then 7!

Maybe WordPress is caching data from the db and this is messing things up.

It’s bizarre – when I look at administer_stats in wp_postmeta, the unserialized data does not have a ‘c’ (clicks) element. It does have the ‘i’ element

When I create my own $administer_stats array, with ‘i’ and ‘c’ elements and update the wp_postmeta entry, it is soon overwritten by the plugin and replaced with an empty value or serialized data that does not have a ‘c’ element.

BTW, the data written by the plugin is:
$stats[$ad_id][i] = 1
for all the active ads. The impressions/clicks are displayed as zero in the WP Ad Manager Content tab.

I might simply deactivate the plugin, clear the db of administer data and start again.

@root: It does have a css folder:
http://core.svn.wordpress.org/tags/3.0.3/wp-admin/css/theme-editor.dev.css

@daisymariposa: I got the same error trying 3.0.2 to 3.0.3.

I realise that many/most people will not have problems. I am looking for debugging suggestions.
The “Could not copy file” error is from copy_dir() function in wp-admin/includes/file.php.

Perfect solution, thank you.

I added excerpt_length=55 to the page shortcode and {summary} is now appearing.

My page shortcode is now:
[wpp range="all" cats_to_exclude="3,28,25,19" pages=0 order_by="views" wpp_start='<div class="popular-posts">' wpp_end="</div>" stats_comments=0 thumbnail_width=100 thumbnail_height=100 post_start='<div class="popular-post">' post_end="</div>" do_pattern=1 pattern_form="{image}<h2>{title}</h2><p>{summary}</p>" excerpt_length=100]

I added excerpt_length=100 and changed pattern_form to pattern_form=”{image}<h2>{title}</h2><p>{summary}</p>”
