# HTTP Request Error in 3.1

 * I’m getting the HTTP Request Error in the latest 3.1 version of the plugin when
   I have any other plugins active. Even Hello Dolly seems to mess with it. With
   everything disabled there is no error and the content is ok. But any other plugin
   causes the all of the post URLs to return 404s. With everything deactivated except
   for MCB it’s ok but as soon as any plugin is added all of the posts fail to load
   and I see the HTTP Request Error on the backend.
 * Any suggestions on lines that I can try removing to see if it helps in the new
   version? Line 69 seems to be a blank line in version 3.1

 * Wow, that sounds really strange. No other plugin should have any effect on MCB
   like that. Is it possible your website loads quite slow and the HTTP request 
   times out? Maybe when activating another plugin it just gets that little bit 
   of extra slow. I can’t think of anything else.
 * You can try going to Settings -> Multiple content blocks and disable “HTTP Requests”.
   You will have to initialize the blocks manually by visiting the page in the front-
   end.
 * Hope that helps.

 * It turns out this was a really odd problem with the theme. There were some errors
   with how it created the custom post types and that caused problems when MCB tried
   to update fields. Fixing the ‎register_post_type function fixed it.

 * Ok, I’m glad it worked out.
