To turn it on open your wp-config.php file and set WP_DEBUG to true and you will see any errors. Let me know if you see any errors.

The user your web server is accessing the database as must not have rights to create tables. Run these sql commands on your database to create the tables needed. * ``` CREATE TABLE wp_PO_groups ( group_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, group_name varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', group_members longtext DEFAULT NULL, PRIMARY KEY PO_group_id (group_id) ); CREATE TABLE wp_PO_post_plugins ( post_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL, permalink longtext NOT NULL default '', disabled_plugins longtext NOT NULL default '', enabled_plugins longtext NOT NULL default '', PRIMARY KEY PO_post_id (post_id) ); CREATE TABLE wp_PO_url_plugins ( url_id bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, permalink longtext NOT NULL default '', children int(1) NOT NULL default 0, disabled_plugins longtext NOT NULL default '', enabled_plugins longtext NOT NULL default '', PRIMARY KEY PO_id (url_id) ); ``` * Thread Starter [shism](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shism/) * (@shism) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selective-plugin-loading-settings-not-saving/#post-3243103) * This is what it gives me now. * Error Code: 1101.

I can get rid of the default for this column but I will need some time to test my changes. I’m going to make the change to my database now and see if any problems arise. I should be able to get it all tested and released some time this afternoon. Maybe not until tomorrow. * Thread Starter [shism](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shism/) * (@shism) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selective-plugin-loading-settings-not-saving/#post-3243106) * I modified mysql.ini and fixed the problem. * Thread Starter [shism](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shism/) * (@shism) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selective-plugin-loading-settings-not-saving/#post-3243108) * Setting the sql-mode to sql-mode=”MYSQL40″ fixes the issue. * [prejudice](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prejudice/) * (@prejudice) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selective-plugin-loading-settings-not-saving/#post-3243112) * rolled back to version 2.5, now it works. pls fix it when releasing 2.5.2. thanks! * Plugin Author [Jeff Sterup](https://wordpress.org/support/users/foomagoo/) * (@foomagoo) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selective-plugin-loading-settings-not-saving/#post-3243114) * Rolling back to version 2.5 wouldn’t have fixed the problem with the default for BLOB/TEXT column in the database. That has been there since version 1. I’ve got version 2.5.2 ready to release but I’m not sure what problem you were having prejudice. * [prejudice](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prejudice/) * (@prejudice) * [13 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selective-plugin-loading-settings-not-saving/#post-3243118) * sorry Jeff. the problem i had in 2.5.1 is a little bit diff. in Settings page, every time i select Enable in Selective Plugin Loading, then Save Settings. refresh the page, it becomes Disable… tried many times all the same. i’m not sure what’s the issue there, so i rolled back to 2.5 and it works. thanks.
