Hopefully you are onto your way to solving some issues, out of the box, WordPress doesn’t have Oauth provider support for remote applications. However there are a couple of plugins that provide such support including https://wordpress.org/plugins/oauth2-provider/

Also the wp-api.org has support as a bundled separate plugin to create an oauth tokens for authorisation with the API.

If you don’t need full authorisation, and are simply looking for identity of a user, then you can look at using OpenID as an alternative.

Hopefully you have gotten this sorted, however if not the error appears to be generated because of an issue in a plugin do you have Network-Latest-Posts plugin installed? If so this seems to be the cause of the issue, you might be best asking for help in the plugins own support forum.

Without looking at the code or the site I will go out on a limb and say one of your shortcodes is not using the Shortcode API and is trying to do it’s own regex which due to a change in the way the Shortcode API works in recent versions of WordPress means that some badly coded plugins and themes shortcodes fail (the good news is that it means malicious users can no longer trick your site into doing bad things).

so first step, update to the latest plugins and theme if you haven’t already done so, the next step is to track down which offending shortcode is causing the issue. I’m going to generalise here and while their are some excellent theme developers out there, if your theme provides shortcodes that would be where I would start.

Once you have worked out which is causing the issues contact the developers, it seems you have already reached out to the theme developers so if it is the themes shortcode causing issue, you might want to look for an alternate plugin that offers the same functionality or consider a new theme.

The reason Jan was asking, is the new layout is suppose to be “better” for when you are searching for a specific plugin, so if you are supply exact name and it;s not showing up in the first couple of results then there maybe an issue that hasn’t been spotted.

So while the feedback on the new layout has been taken on board and will along with other feedback, help shape future iterations, you may have also to add to your woes potentially found a bug so we would like to investigate that as well.

Hi there
Just a polite note, please don’t use modlook tag as a means to simply get someone to answer your question. Please only use it where you feel a moderator needs to take an action only a moderator could.

Several moderators monitor the tag, and our aim is to respond as quickly as possible, this means we probably have stopped doing something to jump to action.

As a side note, because I have written this reply, your post will no longer show in the no-reply list, meaning its less likely to receive attention sorry about that, though the plugin author should still see it.

If you yourself are not using any caching, or using a service like cloudflare, then it could well have been your host, a lot of the managed WordPress hosting companies use Varnish and similar under the hood. Glad its working.

If you have a forum or community plugin installed then it will probably come with registration and login options, if not then consider the forum side first and see if it doesn’t already have a login solution.
