In reply to: [UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin] Unable to restore from backupAny other ideas or updates? Unfortunately I still can’t restore from backups which also makes it pretty risky to try and even update things or do any other diagnoses for risk of making things even worse.

In reply to: Undefined index: post_type xcalendar errorHey Jane,
Just had this happen for a client’s site and have been killing myself trying to fix it for the past few days. We became aware of it because this hack inserted a bunch of spam content and links including into the main menu on the home page (things like “online cricket betting” viagra ads, essay writing advice, etc.) What was really annoying is that the content wasn’t showing up in the WP dashboard but I could see it in the database. I restored a backup of the database from before the content started showing up but after 1 day it came back.
So anyway, I started going through all the steps and deleted plugins that didn’t seem necessary (I didn’t build the site so I had to be careful since I didn’t know what was necessary or not). One of the plugins called the whole site to break which is how I also found the xcalendar error similar to what you’re seeing!
This post helped me out alot: http://www.ageneralblog.com/wordpress/2015/07/22/wordpress-hacked-with-sophisticated-hack/
The key steps for me were:
1) Deleting this line of code in the wp-config file: “require_once (ABSPATH. ‘wp-content/plugins/ xcalendar/xcalendar.php ‘);”
2) Deleting the Seo Advisor plugin
3) Then I went through and deleted unknown users, closed free registration, deleted spam content, and installed some security plugins like Akismet, Captcha, wordfence, etc.
I’d recommend maybe reinstalling a backup of your database too in case there was some spam content installed there.
Hope this helps!

In reply to: Decouple WordPress from Google APIs and fontsRegarding the problem blwinters mentioned above about the trade-off, you can try out this plugin the Google Font Fix plugin which will actually check the IP of the visitor and serve them the special 360 hosted fonts instead Google, but if not in China it will serve Google fonts. Worked great for me on a couple sites!
Great tip for the autologin plugin! I will definitely check that out. Thanks.
Hi Christian,
Thanks for the prompt support as always!
Yeah, that’s what I ended up doing was have people fill in the registration form through Gravity Forms, then create the confirmation text instruct them on how to complete the purchase. I then used the member level shortcode filter to show the custom Paypal button on the Welcome page (“My Profile” page) if the user is a free subscriber.
You’re definitely right about the ideal situation and the pro-form and Express Checkout sounds like it would do the trick. Taking out the extra steps would certainly make a more fluid experience. Does the s2Member pro come with any Gravity form integration? Because I think that would be a real selling point for the upgrade, particularly given how widespread Gravity Forms is.
Also, as an aside, I was running into major problems with the Paypal button, both shortcode and manual code where I was getting an error from paypal (something about fields not being given proper values). Looked it up on your forums and it looks like it’s caused by wordpress/theme/plugin content filters. Unfortunately, I couldn’t change the theme or plugins, and turning off the wpautop filter didn’t help either. Ended up having to put the button code in manually through the template files after the content was output and then use jquery to put the button into empty divs placed in the content after the page was loaded. Not a problem any more but just thought I’d bring it to your attention since I saw a couple threads about the problem as I was searching for a solution myself.
Thanks again!

In reply to: Can't Change the Privacy SettingsYep, same thing was happening to me. Glad you got it figured out! Weird that wordpress didn’t try and get re-route in there. Weirder still that it was even possible to still link to a page that otherwise doesn’t still exist.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Can't Change the Privacy SettingsYes I did actually. I think this is related to the update to WordPress 3.5. Basically I think they got rid of “Privacy Settings” and just moved that to General Settings. I would go to your dashboard, clear your cache, refresh a few times and then check out General Settings and you should see an option to allow spiders.
Hope that helps!

In reply to: WP-ecommerce updating cart spinner hangsNot sure if you’ve solved this or not, but I just encountered a similar problem and after trying everything under the sun to get the “Add to Cart” Ajax working on the page, I turned off debug mode in my wp-config file and sure enough… it’s working again!
It’s really weird because when I first got everything setup, it was actually working. I don’t know what changed caused everything to conflict but it’s back now. I also though re-copied the plugin files (not my theme customization files), flushed the cache, changed themes, turned plugins on and off, etc.
Hope this helps someone!
Awesome! Thanks so much for fixing that.
One other question- Now that I’ve got it working, I submitted a couple forms to test and I noticed that it highrise imported Radio Button entries and filed it as a website for the user submitting the form (subsequently with a broken link). This was even though I had not created a custom category for this entry. Any idea what could be causing this?
One last thing, just wanted to confirm that punctuation in the custom field won’t work right? I had a field in my form with a question mark and both having the custom field with and without the question mark didn’t work, so I changed the form field and it imported fine.
Thanks again for the update and for an awesome plugin!
Yeah, I’m having the same problem. Everything is up to date, was able to put in my Highrise information, but nothing is showing up in the Advanced settings to “Enable Highrise Integration”

In reply to: Google Maps broken after transfer to WordPress.org sitethat worked beautifully. Good find. You’re a legend!
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Google Maps broken after transfer to WordPress.org siteyes, that’s exactly what I need for the youtube short code. I couldn’t find anything that exactly replicated that wordpress.com feature. I would have to again go through and change the short codes to match the plugin’s.

In reply to: Google Maps broken after transfer to WordPress.org siteAny chance there is a similar solution for the youtube shortcode?
