Can't load settings after update 2.3.9

Thanks for the suggestion justin – I’ve switched to php 5.6, and the behaviour is the same.

hmmm oke I am out off solutions hopefully the developers will come up with a fix

ok – Thanks justin.

Hi Pavel – With regard to your other suggestions:
1. I can’t disable “Advanced JS Cache” from the Advanced tab of the settings, because the settings do not display!
2. I’ve sent my .htaccess file to Benjamin
3. I can’t check the settings for the default calendar page for the same reason as point 1. But I can tell by looking at the site that it is https://maryray.co.uk/calendar/.

The ‘wp’ directory is the wordpress install directory, and all the permalinks don’t include it because of the line in my root index.php require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/wp/wp-blog-header.php' ) so that wordpress can sit in it’s own directory. I use this technique on all my sites, some of which use the Timely calendar – with no problems.
Any more ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Pete468

Have you seen this error on your site?
`<br />
<b>Warning</b>: require(/var/sites/m/maryray.co.uk/public_html/wp/wp/wp-blog-header.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in <b>/var/sites/m/maryray.co.uk/public_html/wp/index.php</b> on line <b>17</b><br />
<br />
<b>Fatal error</b>: require(): Failed opening required ‘/var/sites/m/maryray.co.uk/public_html/wp/wp/wp-blog-header.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/newage/lib/php’) in <b>/var/sites/m/maryray.co.uk/public_html/wp/index.php</b> on line <b>17</b><br />
`

I guess it shows now instead of “Silence is golden”.
Are these paths correct? ...public_html/wp/wp/wp-blog-header..

Did you do that that trick with ‘require wp-blog-header’ on other sites with Timely Calendar installed and it worked?

Best regards,
Pavel.

Hello Pavel,
Diagnosing errors with the browser console is fairly new to me, so I’m not that confident with it.
I expect the error you mention is because of the duplicate index files..
The silence is golden technique has worked on other WP sites of mine using the calendar (for instance: https://www.focusmagazinesltd.co.uk/abergavenny-focus/ )

The error I get is as follows:
SyntaxError: expected expression, got ‘<‘
https://maryray.co.uk/wp/?ai1ec_render_js=calendar.js&is_backend=false&is_calendar_page=true&ver=2.3.9
Line 1

Ok – I realised that when I replaced the index.php after you brought up the ‘silence is golden’ error, I replaced it with a copy of index.php from the domain root, which contained a relative path that was incorrect for the WP install directory (i.e. /wp/wp-blog-header.php). This was causing the error you highlighted.
After removing the extra ‘wp/’ all the problems are fixed. Which is great!

I tried putting the ‘silence is golden’ file back , and it broke in the same way. So although it’s great I’ve worked around the problem (thanks for your help!), it doesn’t explain why my usual technique that works eleswhere, don’t work here.

Hey Pete468,

Great to know that you have it fixed! Let us know please if you occasionally find any details about the technique you used and why it didn’t work.

Thanks!

Pavel.
