 * When I try to ‘Grant authentication’ to Blipfoto via BlipPress, I get the following
   error message.
 * Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started

 * Hi
 * This looks very much like a conflict caused by another theme or plugin on your
   site.
 * Can you please try disabling your plugins one at a time, and after each disablement
   try the authentication again. If authentication is successful, let me know which
   plugin you disabled immediately before. I can then look at that plugin’s source
   code to determine what caused the conflict.
 * If that doesn’t work, try changing themes. If that solves it, let me know the
   name of the theme that caused the problem.
 * Sorry it’s a bit of a pain to do all this, but hopefully this process of elimination
   will get to the bottom of it.

 * Hiya
 * I’ve deactivated every plug-in except WordPress and switched between four different
   themes. Same error message every time 🙁

 * I’m not sure of your level of technical ability, so I have no idea if the following
   will make any sense…
 * One possible cause is if one of your PHP files has a space after a closing `?
   >` tag at the end of the file. Have you (or someone else) edited any PHP files?
 * If you have access to your wp-config.php file, can you check if any of the debug
   constants are defined in there? e.g. `define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );`
 * Or does your hosting server have `display_errors` turned on in the PHP config?(
   this is very unlikely but I’m clutching at straws!)
 * Any of these could generate output to the screen before the page loads, which
   could cause this problem.

 * It’s safe to say my technical ability is approaching zero – well, maybe 0.5.
 * I’ve not, to my knowledge, edited any php files and no one else has access to
   my WordPress site, but it was recently moved across from WordPress hosting to
   self-hosting on my own domain via the WordPress import Plugin, after being neglected
   for a long time, just in case that gives you a clue. I hadn’t tried to install
   your Plugin before it was moved and it was actually one of the first (but not
   the actual first) I installed and tried to authenticate once I’d made the move.
   I’ve not had similar problems with any of the other Plugins 🙁 Am I ok to reactivate
   them now?
 * I’ve just located the wp-config.php file and it says
    _* For developers: WordPress
   debugging mode. * * Change this to true to enable the display of notices during
   development. * It is strongly recommended that plugin and theme developers use
   WP\_DEBUG * in their development environments. */ define(‘WP\_DEBUG’, false);
 * Is the ‘display_errors’ going to be in the same file? If not, where am I likely
   to find it in my hosting File Manager?

 * The debug value in the wp-config.php file is fine.
 * Let me do some more investigation and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
 * You can re-activate your plugins/theme for now.
 * One more question: does the error message display immediately after you click
   the ‘authenticate’ button, or does it send you to blipfoto.com first and then
   show the error?

 * Ta re re-activation.
 * The message appears immediately when I click the authenticate button, definitely
   goes nowhere near Blipfoto.com, and BlipPress doesn’t appear in my Blipfoto apps
   page either.

 * Thanks very much for all your help over email, it really helped in pinpointing
   the cause of this one.
 * This is now fixed in version 0.2.1.
 * Happy Blipping!
