I have the same problem. Videos I’ve had work with other themes are not showing in One Page Express. * UPDATE: It does work if I give an URL to a YouTube video. If I give an URL to an MP4 it doesn’t work. If I select a locally-stored MP4, it does not work. When I save and then return to the header settings, if I selected a local video file, it will not persist in the settings. - This reply was modified 8 years, 12 months ago by [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/). * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [[Atahualpa] Atahualpa dead?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/atahualpa-dead/) * Thread Starter [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [9 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/atahualpa-dead/#post-8371312) * My problem is the same as this: [http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=23516](http://forum.bytesforall.com/showthread.php?t=23516) * And I’ve tried to login and comment there, but am facing an annoying login related semi-PEBKAC issue with that. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Need help removing wp-about-4.2.php Malware file](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/need-help-removing-wp-about-42php-malware-file/) * [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [10 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/need-help-removing-wp-about-42php-malware-file/#post-6407340) * Yeah. I found this suspicious function hidden in a **_wordpress-admin-security_** plugin as well. I suspect it was somehow side-injected through files on Godaddy’s hosting. I’ve run about 5+ wordpress sites for roughly 12 years and have never had so many security compromises on a wordpress site until I tried Godaddy’s hosting. But, maybe it was just this particular site. Anyway. +1 to blacklist“ wordpress-admin-security”. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WDContactFormBuilder] Shortcode problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-problem-16/) * [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [11 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-problem-16/#post-5510623) * I’ve got version 2.6.3 on WordPress 4.0.1 and my short codes for these forms are not working. 🙁 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Redirection] Inconsistant Redirection](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/inconsistant-redirection/) * [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/inconsistant-redirection/#post-4270914) * Yeah, exact same experience here. I could try other redirection plugins, but THIS one has awesome secondary features like the hit counters and 404 logging. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Redirection] Add redirect doesn't work](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-redirect-doesnt-work/) * [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-redirect-doesnt-work/#post-4293425) * Yeah, I have the exact same problem. Also, I can’t get most of my redirects to work. I find I can eventually get them to work, but the settings I’ve put in don’t change, however the redirect works in some cases and not others.. Wtf? * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS (nur) unter /wp-admin/network/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/err_too_many_redirects-nur-unter-wp-adminnetwork/) * [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/err_too_many_redirects-nur-unter-wp-adminnetwork/#post-2929828) * I was having these symptoms too. I tried a lot of things such as disabling all my plugins and whatnot. It wasn’t plugins, at least not in my plugin directory. In my case, my wp site was working fine in general, it just was redirecting to infinity when I tried to access `/wp-admin` * Turned out it was my use of `define('FORCE_SSL_ADMIN', true);` in my `wp-config. php`. I’ve commented that out and I’m back in business. I guess that call is defunct or something. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [ABSPATH question](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/abspath-question/) * [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [16 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/abspath-question/#post-936563) * Ah haw! I’ve been trying to figure out where the hell ABSPATH is being defined. I’m running on Windows and thus for me, ABSPATH on my box looks like: `C:\wamp\ www/` * This is resulting in some code in a plugin failing: `define("FORMBUILDER_PLUGIN_URL", FORMBUILDER_BLOG_URL . str_replace(ABSPATH, "/", FORMBUILDER_PLUGIN_PATH));` * As, in this case “FORMBUILDER_PLUGIN_PATH” is coming out as: `http://dev0C:\ wamp\www\wp-content\plugins\formbuilder\` * And thus, the ABSPATH string isn’t found in there. * /facepalm * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [bbclone w/ WordPress 2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bbclone-w-wordpress-2/) * [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [18 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bbclone-w-wordpress-2/#post-561399) * Okay, I’ve got it.. Thanks to this site: [http://www.iltchev.com/?page_id=11](http://www.iltchev.com/?page_id=11) * Just in case that site gets nuked or something here’s the info I used: * ``` Modify wp-blog-header.php: ... gzip_compression(); //-- Insert BBclone Code from here @ define("_BBC_PAGE_NAME", get_bloginfo("name") . wp_title("/", false)); define("_BBCLONE_DIR", "/full/path/to/bbclone/"); define("COUNTER", _BBCLONE_DIR."mark_page.php"); if (is_readable(COUNTER)) include_once(COUNTER); //-- @ to Here require_once(ABSPATH . WPINC . '/template-loader.php'); endif; ``` * my wp-blog-header.php didn’t have that gzip line, I just inserted the bbclone call right before the template-loader and it’s working fine.

Sadly, I can’t quite get bbclone to work. I created a test page and that works fine.. * I’ve confirmed that bbclone is being called using some echo statements. However it seems to quit prematurely in the bbclone code: * ``` // Don't process anything unless we are told to do so if (!defined("_OK")) { if (empty($BBC_DEBUG)) return ignore_user_abort(0); else exit($i); } ``` * I’m really not sure what is going on here, but it’s sort of driving me totally nuts! 🙂 * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [bbclone w/ WordPress 2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bbclone-w-wordpress-2/) * [jamessnell](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamessnell/) * (@jamessnell) * [18 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bbclone-w-wordpress-2/#post-561393) * Sadly your link is dead and I’d love to have that content!

It looks to me like it’s nearly functional. Though when I enable the democracy plugin in wp-admin – it fails – yet still appears to be loaded. The widget enables without obvious incident. But the Democracy management interface doesn’t appear under the “Manage” menu. And the widget simply displays the error message: “ * WordPress database error: [Table ‘dawningmain.wp_democracyQ’ doesn’t exist] SELECT * FROM wp_democracyQ WHERE current = 1 LIMIT 1 “ * Which I can only assume would be resolved by being able to access the Democracy admin tool under wp-admin. * The error message I get when trying to enable Democracy is: “Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.” * My apache error log had the following line appended when this error occured: * “PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 58368 bytes) in /www/dawning.ca/wp-admin/upgrade-functions.php on line 444, referer: [http://www.dawning.ca/wp-admin/plugins.php?deactivate=true”](http://www.dawning.ca/wp-admin/plugins.php?deactivate=true”); * Maybe this isn’t the plugin.. I’m not really that sure.
