    Hey Brett

    I haven’t been able to update any plugins and was also getting an error when trying to authorize the Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress
    plugin both errors say can’t resolve host, and unfortunately your plugin seems to be the cause, I disabled your plugin and I get no more errors.

    Any ideas what might be causing this ?. I had a quick scan through your code but I couldn’t find anything.

  • Same for me, HostGator with an unmodded version.

    Alright…I have tracked down the issue thanks to a friend with a HostGator site I could test on. The problem is with the flush_rewrite_rules(); on line 80 of simple-staff-list.php. I’m still not sure exactly why this is causing a problem but if you change the line to read:

    flush_rewrite_rules( false );

    OR remove it completely. This will solve the issue with plugin updates and I think it should work for the other “can’t resolve host” errors. I believe this line is a development testing scrap that I forgot to remove when I pushed a new version of the plugin at some point. Once I figure that out I’ll push an update with a permanent fix.

    Let me know if this solves your issues.

    Thanks!

    Works like a champ! Thanks for the quick resolution Brett.
