No errors, no shortcode, I also looked at the old page that was getting the errors and nothing appears either? * Checked in text mode and just the shortcode appears * Plugin Author [finnj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/finnj/) * (@finnj) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/two-errors-with-frontier-post-shortcode/#post-7115276) * Hmm, this is very strange… * Please check the profile you are using has at least: frontier_post_can_add, frontier_post_can_edit and edit_post capabilities. * Then deactivate Frontier Post (not delete) and re-activate again * If this is not working, try and add the widget Frontier My Posts, and see if that works. * Two addtional questions: – is this a new install, or are the problems after an upgrade ? – can you edit already created posts ? * Thread Starter [fscbmwcca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fscbmwcca/) * (@fscbmwcca) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/two-errors-with-frontier-post-shortcode/#post-7115277) * I am logged in as admin I deactivated the plugin (also am running Frontier Restrict Backend and Frontier Set Featured so deactivated those too) and the page showed the shortcode I reactivated Frontier Post first and still nothing. * This is not a new install, problems after upgrade I can create and edit posts without any problems * Plugin Author [finnj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/finnj/) * (@finnj) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/two-errors-with-frontier-post-shortcode/#post-7115283) * Can you edit a post with Frontier Post ? * And have you tried the My Posts Widget ? * As I am unable to re-produce your issue, and I can’t find any issues with the code, it is difficult. I am not saying that there is no bug, I just can’t find it. * In version 4 I implemented new logic to support post types, so I will try and add more specig error messages, this might help to track the issue * Until then, I suggest you revert to version: 3.8.7.2 (you can download it from the developer tab) * Thread Starter [fscbmwcca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fscbmwcca/) * (@fscbmwcca) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/two-errors-with-frontier-post-shortcode/#post-7115286) * Sorry, the widgets do work [](http://fscbmwcca.com/test/whats-new/) * Plugin Author [finnj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/finnj/) * (@finnj) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/two-errors-with-frontier-post-shortcode/#post-7115289) * Ok, if you can add new posts using the widget, it gives me somethings to work with * Thread Starter [fscbmwcca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fscbmwcca/) * (@fscbmwcca) * [10 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/two-errors-with-frontier-post-shortcode/#post-7115295) * Let me clarify, the widgets show up (where as in the page they don’t) but still get the “You are trying to add a post with an illegal post-type: NONE” when I click the link to Create a new post. * And I can edit an existing post.
