Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Subdomain problemsWhat you really want to do is activate the network/multisite feature of WordPress and use subfolders, not subdomains. You don’t need a second installation of WordPress. Each site within the network can use its own themes and when you install plugins you can either activate them for the entire network or leave them to be activated on a site-by-site basis.

In reply to: WP install not writing to DBDid you create the user in the database and assign all permissions to it?
I will do that. I am marking this topic as resolved since I won’t be able to replicate the problem with this version of the plugin.

In reply to: [Rename wp-login.php] Alternative pluginI still use this plugin on multiple Websites, all running the latest version of WordPress. So far no problems for me.

In reply to: [Rename wp-login.php] Working on single site, not working on TLD multisiteI use this plugin on many Websites. It may be you are seeing a conflict with some other plugin (maybe Jetpack, for example, which has been causing me problems). What happens when you disable this plugin and re-enable?
Will do but I think I am now through most if not all the sites I manage. I did run into a situation this afternoon on a site that had a message saying an update had stalled out. But everything seemed to be up-to-date. I removed the .maintenance file and looked in the UPGRADES directory. The temporary file for Jetpack was there but the blog was already running the current version of Jetpack so I am not sure what happened. That site runs on a heavily loaded server and it occasionally gets timeout errors, possibly from Web host throttling.
I think you misunderstand me. I have reactivated the plugin successfully on every Website. It is just that on some sites after I updated the plugin when I attempted to do something else (such as update other plugins) I was thrown into the Jetpack dashboard.
My initial response to this problem was to deactivate the plugin, finish whatever other admin tasks I needed to do, and then reactivate the plugin. After reactivation Jetpack/WordPress behaves normally.
The behavior is random. On some sites updating the plugin seems to make no difference. On other sites if I try to go to the admin dashboard I am thrown into the Jetpack dashboard. On other sites if I try to click on the PLUGINS page or the SETTINGS section I am thrown into the Jetpack dashboard.
After some experimentation I found that if I click on some other admin option and get into the correct screen I can then go back to whatever previously redirected to Jetpack’s page and the redirection does not occur.
It looks to me as though Jetpack is trying to do something as I navigate through the admin dashboard, the plugin fails to do whatever that is (most likely an option I have not activated), and so it forces the page to refresh to its own dashboard.
We manage over 100 separate WordPress installations across multiple Web hosting providers. Unfortunately I don’t have time to document which sites have this problem and which sites do not, or to try to see if there are other plugins that are common to all the sites with the problem.
Some sites just update the Jetpack plugin without any problem. It does not matter if the installation is standalone or using a multisite network either way.

In reply to: [Semalt Blocker] Good start but inadequateI was never able to find time to test the plugin on multiple sites but the one installation I made stopped working properly the other day after we updated WordPress and/or Jetpack. I cannot be sure what happened because we processed multiple updates on that site.
I uninstalled the plugin. We’re using a much more robust solution on most of our sites through .htaccess edits anyway.
Sorry.
It’s the upsell model. I won’t give 5-stars for an incomplete plugin. That’s only an explanation, not a criticism or complaint.
Seems to be working properly now. Thanks.

In reply to: [Semalt Blocker] Good start but inadequateWell, I’ll consider that but first I need to deploy it across several Websites. It’s the big picture that matters most. 🙂
