In reply to: My website appearance has totally konked out – why?Hello @jnewell123,
The issue here is that your site has lost its styling. If you didn’t delete anything, then the issue is likely being caused by a caching plugin.
I can see that you are using WP Rocket plugin.
Try clearing the cache to see if that fixes it. If it doesn’t disable WP Rocket, then check if that fixes it.
Here is a guide on how to clear cache in WP Rocket: https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/53-clear-wp-rocket-cache
I hope that helps.

In reply to: [Footnotes Made Easy] Suggestion Only: Tags render within JavascriptHello @bravox2,
Hi, thank you so much for the kind words and for taking the time to report this. Really appreciated.
This is a great catch. We’ll look into adding script tag exclusion in a future release. I just also realized that it affects
<code>,<pre>,<style>. Definitely something worth looking into.Thanks again!

In reply to: glitch trying to log inHello @georgeogorman
This has port conflict between Local and XAMPP written all over it.
Both XAMPP and Local WP are fighting over MySQL port 3306, causing login failures and broken email resets.
The easiest fix would be to stop XAMPP’s MySQL before running Local (or vice versa). The idea is not to run both at the same time.
If you need both, then I suggest you change XAMPP’s MySQL port to some thing different from 3306. You can do this in its
my.iniconfig file.Finally, you can reset your password without email. To do this, use WP-CLI in Local’s site shell. Run this command:
wp user update [email protected] --user_pass=newpasswordHere are some guides I believe can help you:

In reply to: listing deals, offers and discounts without e-commerce pluginHi there,
Now, that’s where the beauty of WordPress comes in. You can absolutely achieve all that without using an eCommerce plugin.
Here is what I’d recommend you do:
Use a plugin like Advanced Custom Fields (ACF).
It is the most flexible DIY approach in my opinion.
- Create a custom post type called “Deals” or “Offers”
- Add fields like: Business Name, Category, Discount %, Expiry Date, Logo, Description
- Display them using a page template.
I hope that helps.

In reply to: Plugin Coding Standard – PSR-12Hello @evonox
That’s a good question.
You can use PSR-12 for your own framework’s internal code, but for WordPress Plugin Repository submission, WordPress Coding Standards compliance is expected for the plugin’s WordPress-facing code.
So, you may want to consider this.
Also, be sure to make use of the Plugin Check (PCP) to help you with coming up with a plugin free of issues and ready for w.org submission.

In reply to: Critical Error in ElementorHi there,
Let us start with the critical error issue.
You must have received an email with the error details (including the Stack Trace). It is from the error details that we can be able to know what is causing the error. Most probably, it’s a conflict between the plugins.
I believe the same conflict is causing the menu-loading issue.
Here is what I’d recommend you do. Get the error details from the email. Share it here so we can have a clear picture of where it’s coming from.
If you didn’t receive an email with the error details, enable debugging on your site, then repeat the same steps that led to the critical error the first time. Check the debug.log for the error details.
Here is a tutorial on how to enable debugging: https://learn.ww.wp.xz.cn/lesson/the-built-in-wordpress-debugging-options/

In reply to: Block from my own siteHi there,
It would really help if you shared a screenshot of what you are experiencing.
Anyway, when something like this happens, chances are that there is a plugin (a security plugin) that’s blocking your IP. Or, your IP is being blocked by your hosting provider.
I would recommend that you start by switching internet/WiFi ISP, and try logging in from a different device. If that doesn’t work, contact your hosting provider and explain the issue to them.
I hope that helps.

In reply to: WP 7.0-beta1 and opcacheHi @hupe13, you’ve diagnosed this correctly. It’s a bug.
opcache_get_status()intentionally returnsfalseinfile_cache_onlymode (PHP documents this). So when only file-based opcache is active, WordPress incorrectly reports it as disabled.The fix is to fall back to
opcache_get_configuration(), which does work in file-cache-only mode, and check foropcache.enable,opcache.file_cache, andopcache.file_cache_onlybeing set. Worth opening a Trac ticket.Forum: Plugins

I have tried to replicate the issue, and just can’t.
And, for that, I am closing this.
If you are able to replicate it on a different environment, please do let me know. You are welcome to reopen this anytime.
Thank you for choosing Footnotes Made Easy.

In reply to: [Footnotes Made Easy] Custom CSS not working anymore?Hi there,
You didn’t miss anything. This is a bug in 3.0.8 that I’ve just fixed.
Thefootnote-linkCSS class was accidentally removed during the security update. Version 3.0.9 restores it, so your CSS will work again without any changes.I’ll be pushing version 3.0.9 within the next 48 hours. Once it’s live, just update the plugin and clear your caches.
Thanks for the report,
Patrick

In reply to: [Footnotes Made Easy] Maximum execution timeHi @karl19
Thanks for reporting this.
Quick questions to help me diagnose:
- How many footnotes are on the problem page?
- In Settings → Footnotes, what is your “Identifier” set to?
- Is “Combine identical footnotes” enabled?
Temporary workaround:
Try changing “Identify” to “a,b,…j” – this should prevent the timeout while I investigate.
OR,
- Settings → Footnotes → Priority
- from 11 to 20
- Save and test
This makes the footnotes plugin run after most other content filters, which should resolve the conflict.
If they don’t help, please let me know.
