 * Dear Andrew
    I was answering _How do I join?_ on [https://make.wordpress.org/training/getting-started/](https://make.wordpress.org/training/getting-started/):
   Fill out our contact form and we will get back to you to help you identify specific
   tasks. Could you please tell me how I can contact the WordPress.org Training 
   Team, or whoever does make ‘Slack requests’. Thank you

 * Hmm, not very helpful. I guess I can forget about joining the meeting on Thursday.

 * Me too, sent request 10 hours ago (make.wordpress.org/chat/ said it would take
   just a few minutes). Didn’t notice anything about an alternative email address
   on that page either.
    No reply so far, not in inbox, not in trash, not in spam
   folder. Any idea how long we might have to sit tight?

 * Yes, I did and it works 🙂
    I found the absolute path by looking closer at the
   error message I received previously when I included a protocol prefix in the 
   path (ftp://home/). It turned out to be a Plesk platform, so: _/var/www/vhosts/
   domain.com/etc/php-errors.log_ does the trick. Thanks again, now to start further
   experimenting with the help of the widget.

 * I’ve made another attempt and now what I get in the PHP Error Log box in the 
   Dashboard is simply: _The log file is empty._ – nothing more. Could that now 
   be correct? If so, I’m much obliged to you.

 * Thanks, Janis, but telling us to add ‘/full/path/to/php-errors.log’ or ‘/home/
   path/logs/php-errors.log’ is confusing for the nonprofessional. Better would 
   be to give a concrete example.
    If I right-click on the empty file I’ve created
   called ‘php-errors.log’ (writable (664) and in any directory) using my FTP client
   and choose, for example, ‘Copy Path’, I get ‘ftp://&#8217; at the beginning. 
   That looks odd and sure enough if I include it, I get, for example, ‘The log 
   file ftp://mydomain.de//logs/php-errors.log does not exist or is inaccessible.
   If I add ‘home’ to the beginning: ‘ftp://home/mydomain.de//logs/php-errors.log’,
   I actually do get an error message which starts: _Warning: is\_readable(): php\
   _network\_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed:_. But below the message it still 
   says that the file doesn’t exist or is inaccessible. If I get rid of ‘ftp://’
   or replace it with ‘full’, it tells me the same thing. But when I put ‘home’ 
   in front: ‘/home/mydomain.de//logs/php-error.log’, it says that the error log
   filename is not set, plus the usual instructions.
 * I would like to have error logs on my testing site because I’m having compatibility
   problems with a plugin that is essential and it would be helpful for the developers
   of the plugin if they could see an error log output.
 * Do you have any suggestions? What other information would you need from me?

 * Before risking it again on GoDdady’s server I’ll test it out on another server
   I’ve got access to (not GD) and then get back to you. It just might take some
   time to copy everything to it. I could probably get to error logs there too.
   
   Let you know

 * Unfortunately, I don’t have access to the error log files, GoDaddy only holds
   them for seven days.
 * Here’s the URL: kevinstevens.net
 * And here’s a list of the other plugins I’m employing:
    Black Studio TinyMCE Widget
   Duplicate Post Page Builder by SiteOrigin Post Edit Toolbar TinyMCE Advanced 
   WP-Optimize WYSIWYG Widgets / Widget Blocks

    I posted here because I got no reply from [http://jetpack.me/contact-support/](http://jetpack.me/contact-support/)
   which I contacted first. Specifically, I was using Jetpack 3.6.1 with WP 4.3 
   and had activated the ‘Extra Sidebar Widgets’ and ‘Widget Visibility’ features
   and everything was hunky-dory. I was away from the site for a few weeks but when
   I returned I was prompted to update to the latest version of WP and to update
   a number of plugins too, including Jetpack. Without much ado – I did, however,
   back everything up first – I updated everything in one go. Result: blank page
   or some kind of generic error message. I reinstalled WP 4.3 and got things up
   and running again but ‘Widget Visibilty’ wasn’t working. After replacing the 
   Jetpack folder with the older version I had the functionality back. Finally, 
   I updated WP to 4.3.1 again and everything worked and is still working. But dare
   I update Jetpack to 3.7? Could version 3.7 have a compatibilty issue with other
   plugins? Version 3.6.1 doesn’t. Are you recommending I recreate the problem so
   you can have a look at it? It took ages to replace the Jetpack folder, by the
   way! Would it make any sense to supply the URL when there isn’t a problem? The
   site must be online and functioning this coming Thursday, Sept. 24. Please advise.

 * Version 3.6.1 was still working fine after upgrading to WP 4.3.1 but Jetpack 
   3.7 caused everything to break. Is there an easy way to rollback or downgrade
   to the previous version?
