Plugin Stopped Working on WP Version 5.03

Hi @rclinton

Could you give us some extra info about your setup please?
It’s possible that another plugin is interfering with the posting.

– What is your pod?
– What other plugins do you have installed?

Also, you can try to re-enter and save your diaspora credentials on the settings page, just in case.

Does the settings page show that the connection to your pod was successful?

Armando:

Even though the plugin said the credentials were saved, reentering them somehow fixed the problem. Thanks for the help.

@rclinton Great to hear!

Did you by any chance change your WordPress salts?
That invalidates the saved password, which gets encrypted using AUTH_KEY.

The next version of the plugin will improve on this, yaay!!

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, don’t worry about it ??

Armando – I did not change the WordPress salts. The plugin simply stopped working with the upgrade to WP 5.0.3 for me. It is good to know that it was a credentials problem even though the plugin gave no error message and claimed the credentials were properly saved.

Bob

May I ask from which WP version you updated from?

I’d really like to get to the bottom of this, because clearly something vital has been changed in WP that affects the WP2D credential safe.

Since I regularly keep WP updated, it was the last version of WP 4, whatever that was.

Ok, thanks a lot!
