: Health Guide - Site Shaper has issues after install / admin config. : mdrothert February 03, 2017, 03:02:57 PM After I install wordpress 4.1 via the Site Shaper found here:
http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_docman/Itemid,96/task,doc_download/gid,1290/ For theme: Health Guide I find that I hit an error when trying to login to the admin portal of wordpress. : [03-Feb-2017 20:49:46 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Cannot create references to/from string offsets in /Users/.../wp-includes/user.php:54 This raises a 500 http response at : `http://localhost:8888/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8888%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1` while trying to use `/wp-admin` Specs: PHP 7.1.0 MySQL: 5.6.34 Apache: 2.2.31 Please advise how to address this issue. : Re: Health Guide - Site Shaper has issues after install / admin config. : mdrothert February 03, 2017, 03:07:54 PM It looks as if this version of wordpress packaged with the site shaper has an inherit flaw with the most current stable version of php.
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/37071 This issue can be seen in version of 4.6 of wordpress and since the site shaper is packaged with 4.1 I assume this is the cause. : Re: Health Guide - Site Shaper has issues after install / admin config. : Tristan Rineer February 03, 2017, 03:17:04 PM Does the problem disappear if you update WP?
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a way to force WP to auto-update during the install process, so updating WP should always be the first step after installing the shaper. I believe you can add the following code to your wp-config.php file to force an update if needed: : define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', true ); [Note: I am moving this topic to the correct board; please remember in the future to post theme/plugin specific questions to the board created specifically for the theme/plugin you are asking about.] : Re: Health Guide - Site Shaper has issues after install / admin config. : mdrothert February 03, 2017, 05:13:51 PM Using the config you provided did allow for the install to work correctly.
Except now the Vertex core theme says its out of data 4.1 > 4.0 I followed the link to do the patch but after updating with the patch I get. "Template XML file " errors on every page. I since rolled that patch back. In addition to that I see the plugin used to inject the demo data does not bring the site any were close to the same level of data used in the demo. I suspected that the demo data plugin was possibly faulty due to Vertex patch not being applied but I cant get the patch to work to rule that out. : Re: Health Guide - Site Shaper has issues after install / admin config. : Tristan Rineer February 06, 2017, 12:28:12 PM That error means that the patch wasn't installed correctly.
Here's the easiest instructions for how to install the patch: =============== To install the patch: 1. Download the Vertex Upgrade Patch (http://www.shape5.com/component/option,com_docman/Itemid,96/task,cat_view/gid,308/). 2. Back up your site (just in case). 3. Copy the vertex/footer.php from the theme folder to somewhere safe (you'll be putting it back after patching). 4. Delete the vertex folder from the theme (nothing else, that is the only thing to delete). 5. Extract the zip file containing the patch, and upload it to the theme folder through FTP, choosing "overwrite" if/when prompted. 6. Copy the footer.php file (from step 3) back into the vertex folder of the theme. That's it. Or, to put it a different way: 1. Back up vertex/footer.php. 2. Delete the vertex folder, then upload the extracted patch to the theme folder. 3. Put the footer.php file back into the vertex folder of the theme. =============== |
