Settings can't be saved
-
Hi! I am trying to change separator to “/” and link to home page to “Home”. After pushing the button “save” the settings seem to be saved. However, if I go to any other page of admin and then come back to the Breadcrumb NavXT main settings page, I see default settings. This problem appeared after moving the site (k-gayduk.ru) from localhost to a remote server. Any help appreciated.

That’s odd, do any of the other settings work? You may want to try doing a settings reset (press the help tab, select the Import/Export/Reset item in the side menu, press the Reset button), and then see if the setting updates stick.
No this did not help, unfortunately
It is also strange that the plugin takes my site name from general settings.
So I see:
site name > articles > ….Insead of:
main page title > articles > …For the second behavior, that’s by design for the %title% tag in the home breadcrumb. If you want it to be something different, replace %title% and %htitle% in your Home Breadcrumb Templates (linked and unlinked) with what ever you want to show on that breadcrumb.
As for the settings not saving, are you getting a “Settings successfully saved. Undo” message after pressing “Save Changes” at the top of the Breadcrumb NavXT settings page? If not, then you are not actually saving the settings. This is either:
- A browser issue, what browser (include version) are you using?
- A server issue, what PHP version are you using?
Hello, John! Yes, I am getting the “Settings successfully saved. Undo”.
1. FireFox 31.0. I am sorry, I don’t know what is “include version”. Also checked Google Chrome 36.0.1985.143 m with no success.
2. PHP 5.2.17Knowing Firefox 31 is enough (31 is the version). One thing that may or may not be related is your old version of PHP. PHP5.2 is no longer supported by the PHP developers and is insecure (in fact, PHP5.3 is no longer supported by the PHP developers either), please talk with your webhost about updating to PHP5.5 (or PHP5.6 when it is released in a few weeks).
Can you try saving the settings again, (press “Save Changes” button) and report back on whether or not you see a message “Settings successfully saved. Undo” near the top of the Breadcrumb NavXT settings page?
You mean doing that after php updating? I use very cheap hosting services, which means they will most likely ignore my appeal. So this is kind of a dead end for me.
Anyway, thank you for your concern. Someday either wp or webhost or php updating will solve the problem, I think. Or may be I will come to moving to a better webhost.
You can try saving before updating PHP, I want to know if the message shows up or not.
Also, I would still contact your web host, it is possible they have deployed newer versions of PHP but have things setup so you have to specify the version you want via a .htaccess file.
Hi, John! I am still getting the “Settings successfully saved. Undo”. Guys from webhost answered that they can update php up to 5.4 version.
However, I am afraid doing this due to possible problems with my client joomla site which is on my host either.So you do see “Settings successfully saved. Undo” but the settings are not actually saving. Hmm. After looking at the code, I need to make a slight tweak so it gives a more meaningful message. I’ll post a link to the new version for you to try when I get it uploaded.
Ok, I made a change to the settings saving code. There should be slightly more descriptive messages now. Please try the version of Breadcrumb NavXT available on the fencer branch (5.2 development) on github https://github.com/mtekk/Breadcrumb-NavXT/tree/fencer
Let me know what message you get when you press “Save Changes” with that version.
Can’t activate it:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /home/thebes/k-gayduk.ru/wp-content/plugins/Breadcrumb-NavXT-fencer/includes/class.mtekk_adminkit.php on line 247
And can’t delete it:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘DomainException’ with message ‘Plugin “Breadcrumb-NavXT-fencer/breadcrumb-navxt.php” has the wrong base to fit the one of Uninstaller
Use FTP to delete it, but before you do, try editing the class.mtekk_adminkit.php file, replace line 247 with the following:
$this->add_option($this->unique_prefix . '_version', '5.1.50', '', 'no');It looks like some things I’m going to do in Breadcrumb NavXT 5.2 are not compatible with PHP5.2. I’ll look for alternates, but Breadcrumb NavXT 5.1.1 may be the end of the line for PHP5.2 support.
I did as you said but still can’t activate the plugin:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /home/thebes/k-gayduk.ru/wp-content/plugins/Breadcrumb-NavXT-fencer/includes/class.mtekk_adminkit.php on line 253
