Hi.
Hmm… I can’t replicate that at all. That line deals with getting the Class C IP address, is that the method you’re using for the bypass?
Cheers
Hi.
Thanks so much for identifying the problem – I have tried that plugin and can confirm that it is causing the issue.
The Maintenance Message tab has an ID of “#message”, so it looks like the capabilities plugin is being a bit too aggressive in trying to identify admin messages to hide.
Luckily it’s something that I can resolve by simply changing the ID of the div. I’ll get a new version pushed in the next couple of days with that fix.
Cheers

Hi. Thanks for checking that.
My testing server is much the same, except for the mysql server and the PHP version is 8.3.30.
Can you try uninstalling the plugin and reinstalling it – but before you deactivate it, check the “Delete all options next time this plugin is deleted” option in the About & Options tab. Obviously take note of the warning under that option that it will delete everything, so make sure you’ve got a record of your IP addresses, etc.
If that doesn’t sort it, can you then do the standard troubleshooting technique of disabling other plugins to see if there’s a conflict.
Cheers
As mentioned in my initial message, I was using WP 6.8.3 and PHP 8.3.
Oops, sorry – so you did! Note to self: Don’t tackle support emails before your first coffee!
I can’t think of anything there that might be causing the issue.
Here’s a thought, since you mentioned reverting back to 1.8 – what does the “Plugin settings version” say on the About & Options tab? (You’ll find it underneath the “Buy me a coffee” panel). It should be 2.1.0. If it is lower, there should be an option to run the settings updater manually.
Hi @manni02.
Thanks for the kind words, and for letting me know that you’re experiencing an error.
I’m sorry that you are getting this. That line giving the PHP Warning is unrelated to the display of the Maintenance Message tab in the admin, but I’ll certainly look into what’s causing that.
As you can imagine, I did testing on that page when I added the new code editor functionality, although I can only test on a limited number of environments. Could you please let me know a little more about your particular environment – version of PHP, version of WordPress, etc.
Cheers

In reply to: [Maintenance Redirect] Excellent pluginHi @maurofon – new version just uploaded that uses WordPress’s built-in code editor library.
Enjoy!

Hi @mr2p
Thanks so much for that quick reply.
I had followed as much info as I could find about creating a hybrid theme and don’t remember anywhere recommending to not have a
/templates/index.htmlfile.I have removed it now (it wasn’t really doing anything anyway) and, lo & behold, your CSS is now being included on the page.
Glad we’ve got to the bottom of it. I only created this theme for my own site as an experiment to see how hybrid themes work. I think maybe I’ll turn it into a full blown block theme.
One final thought – it seems to me that this is probably an issue with the whole block theme thing (which, IMHO, has always been a bit of a mess and this attempt to have “hybrid” themes is definitely a symptom of that) but is there no way you could add some routine to check for this scenario to ensure that your own CSS is being included? I know hybrid themes are a bit of a rarity, but I’m sure that I’m not the only one who will come across this oddity.
Thanks again, and thanks for your excellent plugins.

In reply to: [Maintenance Redirect] Excellent pluginHi @maurofon
Thanks so much for that kind review.
Yes, a code editor is something that I’m considering, but I’ve always been of the opinion that it’s better keep the plugin as lightweight as possible – there’s too many plugins in the repository that are just ridiculously bloated!
Plus, I kinda think that anyone who is able to write their own HTML probably already uses a code editor such as Visual Studio, BB Edit, or even Dreamweaver, so it’s an easy thing to just copy & paste it from there.
I’ll look in to it next time I do some maintenance on the plugin. I’ll see if there’s a lightweight javascript plugin that will do the job.
Thanks again!
Peter

In reply to: [BackWPup – WordPress Backup & Restore Plugin] v5: Terrible “update”Yes, you have (slowly) reintroduced functionality that you shouldn’t have removed, but you still haven’t put back a one-click database download like it used to have. And it still remains that your UI is not great. The previous version wasn’t exactly “pretty”, but at least it worked and everything that you needed to change was there on the one screen. Sorry, but in its current incarnation you still only get 1 star (and that’s being generous… I’d give it 0 stars if I could!)

In reply to: [WooCommerce Stripe Payment Gateway] API calls on every admin page in 9.3.0Can confirm that 9.3.1 has fixed the issue.
Thanks so much @cshultz88 and your team for such a quick turnaround!

In reply to: [WooCommerce Stripe Payment Gateway] New version wp-admin errorI wonder if this is the same problem as I’m experiencing. I too use Woo Subscriptions. Using the Query Monitor plugin I can see that, when I’m accessing wp-admin, on every page there are 181 calls to api.stripe.com. It’s not causing a crash, but it is making each page take over 45 seconds to load.
I’ve reverted back to 9.2.0 and the problem has stopped, so I suggest you do the same!
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Editor not saving preferencesThanks @hankkutw I didn’t know about that plugin. That’ll be helpful in the future I’m sure.
I’ve actually had some time now to do some digging and I’ve discovered that the
{$wpdb->prefix}_persisted_preferencesrow was missing from theusermetatable. Adding that and copying the contents from another, similar, site totally fixed the problem.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Editor not saving preferencesHi @ravindra107 – thanks for the thought, but as I said I have already tried switching to the default 2025 theme.
Changing browsers doesn’t make a difference either.
I can’t see any rows in the db in either the options or the usermeta tables that might be where these settings are stored (but then I suppose if they’re not being stored then there won’t be any rows anyway!)
I’ve never had this issue on any other sites before, so it is very purplexing!
In our upcoming release (version 4.7.7), we’ll introduce a filter hook that allows users to disable email delivery if they prefer not to receive these reports.
I’m sorry, but that simply isn’t good enough! Asking us to add a line of code to disable this “feature” is actually worse than expecting us to log in to every single site and disabling the checkbox.
The ONLY acceptable solution is to disable this “feature” in an immediate bug fix release and then have a notification on the plugin’s admin page saying “we’ve got a great new feature, would you like to enable it?”
