There were other minor shortcode issues throughout all of the sites. Do you have any issue when you install either one of my suggested plugins or the JW Player? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Shortcodes stop working after 3.4.1 upgrade](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/) * Thread Starter [Jonathan Goodman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnoed/) * (@johnoed) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/#post-2898722) * I would appreciate you doing that test. These are self hosted videos using mediaelement. js ([http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/media-element-html5-video-and-audio-player/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/media-element-html5-video-and-audio-player/)) but once that failed I also tried Secure HTML5 Video Player ([http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/secure-html5-video-player/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/secure-html5-video-player/)). I was getting a black box with a “Download File” link in it. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Shortcodes stop working after 3.4.1 upgrade](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/) * Thread Starter [Jonathan Goodman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnoed/) * (@johnoed) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/#post-2898714) * Do you have video running on any of those sites? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Shortcodes stop working after 3.4.1 upgrade](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/) * Thread Starter [Jonathan Goodman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnoed/) * (@johnoed) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/#post-2898703) * In order to resolve this issue we had to role back the PHP upgrade from 5.3.14 back to 5.3.13. We also switched the PHP ini short_open_tag from off to on. I would appreciate it if WordPress would review the new PHP upgrade to see why there might have been this conflict. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Shortcodes stop working after 3.4.1 upgrade](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/) * Thread Starter [Jonathan Goodman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnoed/) * (@johnoed) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/#post-2898650) * Please clarify “vanilla”. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Shortcodes stop working after 3.4.1 upgrade](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/) * Thread Starter [Jonathan Goodman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnoed/) * (@johnoed) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/#post-2898648) * If it’s specific to my site then can you give me some scenarios why shortcodes might stop working. We’ve already gone through your recommended actions. I can’t be the only person on the planet to have ever had shortcodes stop working. What should I be looking for? How can I get shortcodes to work again? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Shortcodes stop working after 3.4.1 upgrade](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/) * Thread Starter [Jonathan Goodman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnoed/) * (@johnoed) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcodes-stop-working-after-341-upgrade/#post-2898608) * All plugins were deactivated. Most plugins were completely removed from the server and then re-installed problem still occurring. * Sites were switched back to Twenty Eleven problem still occurring. * Plugin folder was reset problem still occurring * All files except the wp-content folder re-installed problem still occurring. * It’s not just my site. Take a look at all these conversations. Everyone is thinking the plugins are at fault but all these plugins fail after upgrading to 3.4.1 * [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-jetpack-by-wordpresscom-jetpack-shortcode-embeds-and-rss-feeds?replies=2](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-jetpack-by-wordpresscom-jetpack-shortcode-embeds-and-rss-feeds?replies=2) * [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-cf-internal-link-shortcode-debug-errors?replies=2](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-cf-internal-link-shortcode-debug-errors?replies=2) * [http://madebyraygun.com/support/topic/errors-running-on-wp-3-4-1/](http://madebyraygun.com/support/topic/errors-running-on-wp-3-4-1/) * [http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/several-issuesquestions](http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/several-issuesquestions) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Microdata for SEO by Optimum7.com] [Plugin: Microdata for SEO by Optimum7.com] Invoking plugin button in editor brings up a blank dialo](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-microdata-for-seo-by-optimum7com-invoking-plugin-button-in-editor-brings-up-a-blank-dialog/) * [Jonathan Goodman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnoed/) * (@johnoed) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-microdata-for-seo-by-optimum7com-invoking-plugin-button-in-editor-brings-up-a-blank-dialog/#post-2430239) * Invoking plugin button in editor brings up a blank dialog is still occurring today December 21, 2011. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MonsterInsights - Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress (Website Stats Made Easy)] Google Analytics Site Speed Not Working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-analytics-site-speed-not-working/) * Thread Starter [Jonathan Goodman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnoed/) * (@johnoed) * [14 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/google-analytics-site-speed-not-working/#post-2080641) * It looks like it’s very slowly starting to produce data. I have two pages with speed data now from Saturday. I think this might be more of a Google issue than an Yoast issue. Viewing 11 replies - 1 through 11 (of 11 total)
