Hi Steve,
Please check your PHP error logs on the server.
There may be a required extension for PHP missing or another error.
Cheers,
Leon
Hi Leon,
I’ve checked the error logs, and there are no errors from my most recent use of WP2Static.
Cheers,
Steve
Hi Steve,
OK, we’ll need to try a few more debugging steps…
### 1 ###
In the plugin > Advanced > enable Debug Mode
Save and reload plugin page
Check if a log was created under Logs > Export Log
Email that to me: [email protected]
### 2 (harder) ###
Before running export, open your browser console to the Network tab.
Reload page.
Check the XHR request to admin ajax URL with ajax_action of generate_initial_filelist or such.
###
There may not be enough logging enabled on the server to see errors. Could you please let me know some more details of where this WP site is hosted?
Cheers,
Leon
Hi Leon,
When I try to enable Debug Mode, there is no save button: https://i.imgur.com/LMsJbQd.png
I will look @ #2 now.
Cheers,
Steve
Hi Leon,
I see a 403 error for admin ajax:

Hi Steve,
Could you please expand the details on that 403 response?
I’d like to confirm that it’s the generate_filelist request.
Is there http basic authentication on this server? Any security plugins that could be blocking this?
Windows/Mac/Linux/BSD hosting environment?
Cheers,
Leon

There is an IP block in the site’s .htaccess, blocking India, China, Russia etc…
There is no .htaccess authentication for /wp-admin
Hi @insightdes,
Your local machine may know to resolve example.com to your site, but does the server that you run the plugin on know this?
You may need an /etc/hosts entry added for it…
Cheers,
Leon
