In reply to: [ThinkTwit] [Plugin: ThinkTwit] Error message; vanishing index.phpHi Stephen,
I am happy to test the plugin for you but will be unable to do so for a couple of days. I will report back as soon as I test. (And I really hope it works because the Twitter plugin I’m using at the moment is rubbish!)
Thanks,
FrancesIt was vanishing just from the main root folder (http://justfrances.com). The index page in the theme folder never vanished.
I don’t understand why, I just know that each time I copied a new index.php file over, it vanished again when I refreshed.
Well, as I said, prior to installing the latest update last night, my site worked fine as did the plugin. I really liked the plugin and would love to re-install when/if they fix it.
Also, as I said, I did test it on another WordPress site (v 3.4.1) and got the same missing index.php issue (and error messages) when it was installed (and it went away when I un-installed).
It was ThinkTwit: http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/thinktwit/
When the suspect plugin is installed, it happens. After removing the plugin (deleting all files) it stays just fine.
I installed the plugin to my test site to see what happened and it was the same thing. So it is certainly something in the plugin’s files.
Everything is working fine now. No errors.
(Sadly, I loved that plugin but there must be a bug in their latest version.)
The file (index.php) was actually disappearing with each refresh of the FTP site.
I removed one of the plugins that I had updated just before this happened and that seems to have fixed the problem.
–Re-installed the plugin to be sure, and it was the problem.
–Have sent a message to plugin creator to alert them to the error.Site working fine now.
Yep. It’s gone. (Weird; spooky!) It’s just the index.php from the root–everything else is there and, in fact, I’ve uploaded a couple of test images and they stay whilst the index page vanishes. Just tried again; same thing.
That’s what I’ve been doing and each time I refresh, it’s gone again.
Thank you! I have tried (and failed) with the first two options. Would you mind explaining your last option a bit?
In my mind, it would work to:
1) Download WordPress into a file on my desktop
2) Copy/paste or drag all files except the wp-content folder into my FTP application to replace existing filesIs that how I would do it, or did you have something else in mind?
