I know – it’s been weeks. I am actively looking at this but I’m drawing a genuine blank.<\/p>\n
Here’s what I know… with version 1.0 or above of this plugin, after a number of days the settings are being wiped and slowness and general problems occur as a result (the plugin wasn’t designed to cope with a lack of settings for the simple reason that it should never happen). I’m able to recreate it on my own site but, as you can imagine, it takes a week each time to get it to fail and then, debugging added to my site, isn’t yielding anything useful. I’m still digging but if anybody has any ideas, it would be appreciated.<\/p>\n
If you get the error then the simplest way to restore your site is to head to Settings -> Footnotes and put your settings back in again and then click the save button.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-11548273","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/11548273","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/11548273\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11548273"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
