In reply to: [WP Super Cache] Homepage cache file is generated but cannot be found.I am having the same problem. Without the explicit “index.php” the cached file is not being served. My front page is a static page, not a blog.
Like @myotash I am using PHP caching.
Anyone out there with an idea why this would be happening?

In reply to: [Posts 2 Posts] Display Multiple Connections IntermingledI am having a similar issue. In my case I have authors who write articles and authors who write recipes. So authors are connected with both articles and recipes, but I’d like to create one intermingled date-sorted list of both their articles and their recipes to show on the author page.
Just like @jsing, I have no problem producing two independent lists on the author page, but have had no luck getting those lists to intermingle.

In reply to: [Really Simple Twitter Feed Widget] Replacement text for linksSuper! Thanks, …Eric
This is not a solution, but I have found that I can enter ” ” in the “Greeting Text” and at least end up with the offending h3 text removed. However, there is still a wide gap between my out-of-frame h3 and the comment box. I’m living with the gap for now, but I hope Automatic fixes the h3 problem in a more graceful way since the fix of moving the h3 out-of-frame would be so simple.

In reply to: Can admin_bar_menu or another action be used to modify the Dashboard admin bar?Gosh, blush, I figured it out.
error_log() on my system was writing to two different logs. One log for the user page, another log for the admin page.
The plugin was working fine, I just could not see the log entries because I was looking at the wrong long.
Sorry to bother you all! @halferdev, I appreciate your help. Your “echo” clue finally helped me see the problem.

In reply to: Can admin_bar_menu or another action be used to modify the Dashboard admin bar?That’s what the call to error_log() is, just a bit less intrusive. 🙂
I can say for sure, my plugin is ONLY getting called for user screens. Nothing in my plugin gets executed when I’m on an admin screen.
I wonder why?

In reply to: Can admin_bar_menu or another action be used to modify the Dashboard admin bar?@halferdev, you mention “and is called for admin screens.” How do I ensure a plugin is called for admin screens?
I know my plugin is actually getting activated because I do get the proper entries in the error log when I reload user screens. But I’m getting nothing when admin screens load.
It works, but note the special steps needed in http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-cms-tree-page-view-cms-tree-page-view-in-wp-multisite
Thank you thank you! This post saved the day, I could not figure out how to get CMS Tree Page View to show up on all the sites of my WP MultiSite Network, but this did the trick.
In case anyone needs step by step instructions:
(1) Log into your WP MultiSite Network as a Super Admin.
(2) Go to the Network dashboard and Network Activate the CMS Tree Page View plugin.
(3) Go to each site on the network and find the CMS Tree Page View option in the Settings menu.
(4) Make sure “In the menu” is checked, as well as any other settings you need.
(5) Save changes.
(6) Don’t forget to repeat from (3) for each site.
I agree, it would be a big help to make this a global setting or at least to make the “in the menu” choice the default for pages.
@downpick… Can you get to the filesystem in which your blog is installed? If so, navigate to the “wp-contents” folder and rename your “plugins” folder to something like “plugins-off”. That way WP won’t find them and will run (we hope) without them. Then create a new “plugins” folder and move your plugins back one by one till you identify the troublemaker.
Good luck!

In reply to: WordPress Admin Bar is not working with my custom theme?Just to be clear: if I …
- backed up my db before the update.
- then was hosed by a major update.
- then rolled back the db to my backup and restored the old version.
… I should be OK, right?
Your concern is about rolling back the version without removing the db changes made by the update. That does seem like it could be a problem.
That is a really helpful summary. I was wondering when the db stuff was handled. Yes, given what I saw it could easily have been something getting in the way of that step. A later visit to the admin section may have kicked the remaining upgrade into gear.

In reply to: WordPress Admin Bar is not working with my custom theme?This may be too obvious, but I found that I’d failed to call wp_footer() just before the closing body tag in some of my themes. Once I put that in place, the admin bar appeared.
OK, that’s new to me and may be the case. If so, then why did I not have to continue or complete the upgrade process to fix the problem. Again, all I did was remove and return all plugins.
Also, if this is the case, why does WP allow any plugins to run during the upgrade? Plugins only run because WP calls them. Running them during an upgrade seems like a very bad architectural decision. Wouldn’t it be simple enough to ignore all plugins and plugin code during an upgrade?
Granted, I know nothing of the internal WP auto-upgrade process, so I could be misunderstanding a lot. Now I’m kind of curious, so a pointer to where to learn more would be good.
@lpstenu, note that this error was not any sort of plugin incompatibility. I’m not saying WP could solve that for users, you are quite correct to point out how difficult that would be.
In this case I started and ended with the same plugins running and not causing any problems. Zero compatibility issue with 3.1.
What was a problem was the upgrade process. Somehow that hosed the admin side of the WP MU site until all plugins were removed, reinstalled, and reactivated. I have no idea why that made a difference. But if some investigation shows that to be the case, then the WP MU upgrade process could certainly note which plugins are active, remove all plugins, reinstall them after the base upgrade, then use the note to reactivate the appropriate plugins. That would not require any sort of regression testing.
Again, I had no problems with any plugins in 3.1, they are all working just fine. And yes, I use quite a few (about a dozen) on this MU site.
