    I’m stumped at the moment. The plugins either won’t work or aren’t free (or at least not free if you want to use google drive). I have sufficient space on google drive and my php should work. I think its a memory issue with backuply. Is there a way of increasing the memory on the wordpress site?

    This is now solved. I did an update of WP and all have appeared.

    Thanks for your kind advice both of you. I’ll have a look into it this week. Disabling litespeed has made no difference to the posts not appearing though…

    Sorry Jorge – an update – found where the PHP version can be changed on host cpanel (which I used last time this happened) and put it back to 7.4. Changed plugins.hold back to plugins. Site working but I really do need to sort the PHP versus WP version out. My host says even PHP 8.0 is depreciated but using that breaks the site….

    Thanks for your reply Jorge. I thought I did to DB but this plugin clearly stopped working some months ago. So no. After this is sorted a recommended plugin for back ups to DB will be the subject of another post. By logging into my host and using cpanel to rename the plugin folder to .hold I’ve got the site up and running but I can’t depreciate my PHP back to the old version using their tool. I should add that I used this to up the version. They claim to test it and this test was fine so I accepted the upgrade.

    For me this PHP/WP version issue has happened before. How do you get a version of PHP that works with WP plugins and doesn’t bring the site down?

    Made a backup on cpanel.

    Thanks I tried updating my php using my host cpanel login and have broken the site even though the php checked out as OK. Trying to work out how to get it back again.

    Yes thanks its fading now i.e. the people from Sweden have almost stopped visiting that page its been viewed by a few other nationalities but not to the same extent… I’ve just had a few hits from Sweden on a more recent post which was the subject of a spam blog comment attempt…

    Same here.

    I was going to post and say 1.03 is working for me – so solved, infoforme I’ve just had a look at the settings I’m using.

    Only using “social publisher”

    Publish to author’s Timeline [?] Yes ticked
    Publish to fan page [?] Yes “No oil in the lamp”
    Mentions show on homepage [?] No clear not ticked
    Mentions position [?] Both
    Publish for [?] postpage Post ticked only

    Hope this helps I don’t need to logged into FB fro this to work. Sometimes we get html at the beginning of the post on FB sometimes not.

    The problem is I tried upgrading a couple of plugins as suggested by them. One didn’t upgrade and I got “Briefly unavailable for scheduled maintenance. Check back in a minute”. I somehow managed to get rid of this but looked it up and realised I may need to use ftp, I will for making a backup anyway. But I cannot login using the ftp it doesn’t recognise my password.

    edwinj have you tried leaving it 24 hours and rebooting?!!!? This worked for me. So far so good… worked for 5 posts. How do you get rid of the html at the beginning? Someone posted a link on how to do this but I cannot find it.

    When I booted computer this morning and went into settings the fanpage option was there. Set it and enabled post to fanpage (also possible) and made two test posts to FB page. Seems to be working. I will try it for a few days and report back.
