Shape 5

I've made Site Shaper installations before for several Joomla and Wordpress themes; however this new one for wordpress Paradigm Shift is not going well. When I go to the URL (http://downsizedamerica.com/wordpress) I get only get the text of the basic php file.

Also, no luck with the "wp-admin" page: http://downsizedamerica.com/wordpress/wp-admin.

I've installed 3 times in different hosting accounts and folders.


What could be going-on here?

Thank you.

The only way that the PHP would be displaying as text would be if PHP was disabled on your server. 

I just used the shaper on a clean hosting space a couple days ago, so I know it works.

Is it possible that something didn't upload correctly or that your server isn't parsing PHP for some reason?

Still no luck. I've tried installing the Paradigm Shift Wordpress Site Shaper on 3 different server-types and always the same result. I have wordpress and joomla operating on each of these, but this Install always has the same result: http://downsizedamerica.com/wordpress/.

Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Have you tried going through a standard WordPress installation in those same locations?  That would let us know if it's a WP issue or a problem with the shaper.


Can you try deleting/renaming the .htaccess in the WordPress root folder to see what happens?  This is the first shaper where I tried including that file to prevent people from having to reset the permalink settings.

Bingo! You got it. I disabled the ".htaccess" file that came with Site Shaper and then everything fell into place.

One minor note: The S-5 Accordion Menu was causing some problems with error messages appearing at the top of the site; so I disabled that.

Thank you for your quick and professional assistance!

Thanks for letting me know, I'll get rid of that .htaccess from the download.

Also, thanks for the heads up on accordion menu.  There seems to be a conflict with the newest couple versions of WP that causes that error.  I'll be rewriting that plugin soon anyway, but it's good to know about the possible conflict.

Hi

this is the message of conflict plugin:

How do I fix this?

You should be able to fix that problem by temporarily renaming the plugin folder for accordion menu.  I will be starting development of a new version of accordion menu soon that will allow you to select a custom menu instead of just using the default page structure, that update should also fix the session errors that people have been having recently.

Hi

I try to change the name and did not work and also write full url in the code and neither worked. I think better will wait the new version of the plugin.

regards,

Writing the full URL in the code isn't going to fix anything, it might actually break something.  As I said before, disable the accordion menu plugin by renaming the folder for it, located in wp-content/plugins.  If you just rename the "s5-accordion-menu" folder or delete it, the WP installation won't be able to find it; which will disable it and stop the error.

Is there any update on when the Accordion menu will be fixed? I got the same error messages as above posters before I disabled it. Using Wordpress 3.4. Lovely theme by the way

Cheers Richard

If you download the latest version of Accordion Menu from the club downloads area (and overwrite the one in your plugins folder), that error will be resolved.  I thought I had already updated the copy in the shaper, but it appears I missed that one.

Thanks for catching it.

UPDATE: The Shaper has been updated.
