    It’s been three days after I upgraded to WP 2.8.5 and just last night, my blog started to act weird.

    It displays the Blog’s title and post title but no content.

    I did a fresh install of WP this morning and thought everything was ok. But just a few hours ago, the same problem occurred again.

    Please help!

  • Activate all plugins, switch to the WordPress Default theme…do you see post content there?

    I’ve isolated the plugin that has caused this problem:

    Secure and Accessible PHP Contact Form by Mike Cherim and Mike Jolley

    The strange is, I’ve been using this plugin for years and it’s only now that it has caused a problem like this.

    Oh no! I am using the same contact form and was just about to upgrade to 2.8.5 – Good that you found that out. I will have to look for another contact form (Secure and Accessible worked great…)

    I’ve checked the server error logs and found this Fatal PHP Error message:

    [27-Oct-2009 18:01:04] PHP Fatal error: Cannot access empty property in /home/jrocasco/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 431

    I’ve also contacted the plugin author about this, hopefully a fix will come out soon.

    But the bottom line is, this is a compatibility issue, correct?

    Found a fix!

    It turns out that an empty or null entry in the wp_options table gets mysteriously created. More info here

    Deleting the empty entry fixes this problem, but the root cause, how that entry was created in the first place remains a mystery.

    It’s recommended that the wp_options table be cleaned up after a while, because installing and removing plugins add up to the junk entries in the database. Check out this post by ShoalinTiger for more info.
