Thanks, Tobias. Yup, that was it exactly – a missing quotation mark.
Cool. Thank you – good to know!

In reply to: [Database Addon for Contact Form 7 - CFDB7] CFDB7 incompatible with PHP 7.1Hello Ivan. Thanks for the response! I’m guessing I was using an earlier version of the plugin – can’t tell now as I uninstalled it. Not sure why WordPress wouldn’t have informed me of a newer version of the plugin. ????? – George

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Replacing WooThemes CanvasMartian, hoping you’ll be pleased, as I continue to be. I’ve now converted three sites including our fairly complex school site (www.livingwisdomschool.org), and continue to be very satisfied with GeneratePress and CSS Hero. A breath of fresh air…

In reply to: [Contact Form 7] Contact form 7 shuts down access to dashboardIt’s a site that lies or dies by its contact form, so I went ahead and switched out CF7 for another plugin. The crash occurred when after I filled the in site’s wp-admin.php page to log in to WordPress. Clicked Log In and that’s when the error page appeared with lots of gobbldegook and Contact Form 7 featured in the stream of text. That’s about all I can tell you as I’m unable to reproduce the error now that it’s fixed.

In reply to: [Contact Form 7] Contact form 7 shuts down access to dashboardI received a similar error. Had to call my Managed WordPress provider and have them disable all plugins before I could access the WordPress Admin backend. The support person said they are receiving quite a few calls today about this issue. Will there be a solution? Contact Form 7 also seems to be preventing WordPress from automatically updating in the hosting provider’s backend. Will there be a fix? Sorry, I’m unable to send you the error message, as I’m now able to log in.

In reply to: Live Preview Not WorkingYes – this worked for me, also. Many thanks.
For others with the problem, the solution is:
1. In WordPress, go to Settings > General
2. Make sure that BOTH “WordPress Address (URL)” and “Site Address (URL)” are fully inflected – that is, include “http://www.” in both addresses.
Whenever people visit one of the sites I webmaster, if they have NoScript installed, they see a notification in the status bar indicating that lockerz is being blocked. For our type of sites, that is just not something we want our users to be bothered with. This new behavior of AddtoAny is just totally, completely unacceptable. No doubt, it’s the reason lockerz acquired ATA in the first place.
That said, can anyone recommend a social media plug-in that adds similar functionality? AddToAny has been the best, by far. I’m very disappointed that we’ll have to replace it on all our sites, at considerable expense in time and energy. Thumbs-down to lockerz. I’ll never install ATA again unless they cease and desist.
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Reviews of stable and well-supported themes?Thanks a bunch. I reflected on the review of 5 minimalist themes at http://op111.net/51 and may choose Atahualpa (lots of GUI options for a non-coder like me). But I will most certainly check out the studiopress offerings.

In reply to: Text not displaying (only header/sidebar) in IEAHA. Fixed it – seems WordPress doesn’t like text pasted in the .docx format of Word 2007 and later. Easily fixed, however — (a) go to Manage > Posts and open the text in HTML format, then remove the commented code at the top of the file, between the “<–” and “–>” comment indicators. It’s still okay to save your Word text in the old .doc format (Word 97 to XP) and paste it using the WordPress “Kitchen Sink” button (on the Write Post toolbar) then the Paste from Word button.
ORIGINAL PROBLEM STATEMENT:
I got an email from a reader of my blog this morning, saying he could see the text of some articles but not others. I determined that the problem exists only in IE – Firefox shows all articles normally.
I tried switching from the InSense theme to Atahualpa, then K2, which are much more robust and standard, but no, the problem doesn’t go away – some posts still show the article text but others don’t.
Does anyone have a solution for this? Thanks.
P.S. The text is there – it shows up when I view the page source. But IE doesn’t display it.
Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Opinions: WP or WikiI’m using WP as a CMS. I put WP in a subdirectory of the site and use the home page to index articles by topic, linking them to the articles’ WP permalinks. My site is pure articles; that’s why I’m able to use the HP as the index. For a more complex site, just create more static pages using your page-creation tool(s) of choice, and link to the dynamic WP content using permalinks. This works well. I formerly used Blogger to do it, but switched to WP for a faster edit process (and because I don’t like the way Blogger creates HTML/CSS code).

In reply to: WordPress as internal CMS and Web Site toolGoogle “WordPress as CMS.” You’ll find an account of someone’s complete experience doing just what you describe. It’ll help you decide if using WP is right for you. Hmm, an alternative: http://www.citydesk.com Expensive ($224.50 with standard discount), but very simple for the end-user – and not much work for the designer/programmer, I suspect. (I just bought CP – I’m a writer and DO want to avoid code.)
