I tested a smaller file and it was corrupt too. Can you try this and see if it works right? * – Temporarily deactivate **all** plugins except EDD. – Temporarily switch to the default Twenty Sixteen theme – Create a new test product, and upload a new image file to that product. Try [this image](https://s3.amazonaws.com/f.cl.ly/items/0q0Y3A1j2M2Y110T232s/Image%202016-01-12%20at%201.13.08%20PM.png).– Make a test purchase and download it and see if it works right. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Easy Digital Downloads – eCommerce Payments and Subscriptions made easy] Damaged .jpg files after downloading](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/damaged-jpg-files-after-downloading/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [10 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/damaged-jpg-files-after-downloading/#post-6934425) * Hi, * 1. Could you go to Downloads > Tools > System Info and paste the contents here? * 2. In your web folders, can you show me the contents of the .htaccess file in the root web folder, in the wp-content folder if one exists, and in the wp-content/ uploads folder if one exists. You can paste the contents on pastebin.com if you like to make them easier to read. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Stream – Activity Log & Audit Trail] Can't use the Search Filter at all](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-use-the-search-filter-at-all/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-use-the-search-filter-at-all/#post-6779290) * I see something similar.

If it is, I filter the menu item markup to add some attributes and classes I can use to intercept the clicks with javascript so they page doesn’t reload to the full category archives. * Then I kick off an ajax request that fetches the latest 6 posts from the requested category, build the HTML markup for it, JSON encode it, return it to the javascript call so I can insert the new HTML into the container, replacing what is already there. * As you can see it’s not something you can just enable. I can share some of the code I did here once I’ve ironed it all out, and you customize it to fit your use case. Otherwise maybe you can find a plugin to help. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [403 Forbidden Access and pages partially loading](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/403-forbidden-access-and-pages-partially-loading/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/403-forbidden-access-and-pages-partially-loading/#post-6674704) * No problem.

Some web hosts use networked file systems, which means the files your site loads are pulled from another server. If your host uses that and they’re having connection problems between the servers, that could be the cause. It’s really hard to say because it could be a bunch of different things. With it only happening sometimes, it sounds like something like I described, but only the host will be able to answer that for sure. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [link the header to another website (? php echo )](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/link-the-header-to-another-website-php-echo-1/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/link-the-header-to-another-website-php-echo-1/#post-6674698) * It’s hard to tell because it looks like you have only shared a bit of the code, but you should be able to replace the whole line: `` * with the link instead. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: ["Fatal error: Cannot unset string offsets" from theme instillation](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-cannot-unset-string-offsets-from-theme-instillation/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-cannot-unset-string-offsets-from-theme-instillation/#post-6674696) * Hi, you can disable the theme by logging into your site via [FTP](https://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) and going into the wp-content/themes folder, and renaming the theme folder. This will force WordPress to deactivate the theme and fall back to the default theme installed. * If you’re not comfortable using FTP, you can ask your host to rename the folder for you. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [403 Forbidden Access and pages partially loading](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/403-forbidden-access-and-pages-partially-loading/) * [John Parris](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mindctrl/) * (@mindctrl) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/403-forbidden-access-and-pages-partially-loading/#post-6674693) * Hi Umberto, * If it’s happening intermittently like that, it could indicate some hosting issues going on under the hood. If you have access to the web server error logs, that would be a good place to look. Otherwise I recommend at least asking the hosting company if they can tell what’s going on.
