[plugin: PodPress] 8.8.4 upgrade causes white screen in multi-site

  • We love PodPress and have been using it with great success for some time.

    But the latest upgrade seems to have caused some kind of a conflict. I have a large multi-site WordPress install (3.0.1), and after upgrading to 8.8.4, many of the sites have white screens of death. Both front-end and dashboard are blank white screens. These are sites which do NOT have PodPress activated. The sites using PodPress seem to function fine.

    I checked the error logs on the server and found this PHP error:

    Call to a member function get_feed_permastruct() on a non-object in wp-includes/link-template.php on line 429

    I reverted to version 8.8.2 of PodPress and all is well again, but thought you might want to know.

    Very possible that this conflict is with a plugin that I’m using that most others aren’t–we have a somewhat idiosyncratic set of plugins.

    Let me know if there is anything else I add to the description to help.

  • Thank you for your report!

    I’m looking into this.

    Did you meant 8.8.8.4 and 8.8.8.2?

    Yes, you’re right. Sorry, I left out an 8.

    It is 8.8.8.4 that caused the problem, and with 8.8.8.2 all is fine.

    I have added a get_feed_link() call at a place in the plugin which is most likely executed before the WP Action Hook “init” in some situations (maybe after an WP upgrade) which is before the WP rewrite engine is ready. This is most likely the cause for the error message.

    I have modified this line of code again and now it is part of the current Development Version. It would be great if you would have the time to test this version. I have trouble to reproduce this error even with my multisite test blog. But tomorrow I will try on a different multisite installation.

    Looks like that did the trick!

    I installed the current Development version and everything works perfectly. Thanks a lot!
