Fatal error from Restrict Content plugin

Same here. Completely breaks site.

Guys, I’ve been trying to replicate the issue without any success. I tried in a fresh install and found no error. Also I tried updating version 3.1.8 to 3.1.9 in the plugins dashboard and also no error. Tried with PHP version 7.4 and also 8.0, no error.

If you are able to provide the step each of you took I might look into it.

My last suggestion is that you might have file caching issues. So please clean your cache if you are using a caching plugin or in. your hosting. If any of you that reported the issue has a caching plugin please list it.

Please share any log, screenshot or screencast that you might have.

We are using WP Rocket on 1and1 and the bug happened after an automatic plugin update.
PHP 7.4.33

lo mismo yo uso LiteSpeed Cache borre cache y aun sigue el error y si tenia la actualización automática activada, en mi caso no me funcionaba instalar una antigua version o borrarla seguia el error pero lo solucione copiando la carpeta desde cpanel, ya que tenia una pagina donde no se actualizo, ojala le sirva a alguien, saludos

Hi,

i have the same problem and i fix this temporely with uncomment this lines in this file

\wp-content\plugins\restrict-content\restrictcontent.php

After this action the site is at least further accessible. Please note that all hidden elements are then visible!!!

/*
// Load Strauss autoload.
require_once plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . 'vendor/strauss/autoload.php';
*/



/*
use RCP\StellarWP\Telemetry\Config;
use RCP\StellarWP\Telemetry\Core as Telemetry;
use RCP\Container;
*/

/*
add_action('plugins_loaded', array( $this, 'plugins_loaded' ));
*/


/*
    public function plugins_loaded() {
        // Initialize Telemetry.
        $container = new Container();
        Config::set_hook_prefix( 'rcp' );
        Config::set_stellar_slug( 'restrict-content' );
        if ( defined('TELEMETRY_SERVER') ) {
            Config::set_server_url( TELEMETRY_SERVER );
        }
        else {
            Config::set_server_url( 'https://telemetry.stellarwp.com/api/v1' );
        }
        Config::set_container( $container );
        Telemetry::instance()->init( __FILE__ );

        $rcp_telemetry = new RCP_Telemetry();
        $rcp_telemetry->init();
    }

Israel Barragan?thank you, it works !!!

“Please replace the file?restrict-content/restrictcontent.php?with the content of this:?

I had same problem…update to version 3.1.9 of Restrict Content crashed my site. Thanks to asaynisch for suggesting commenting-out lines 130-131 of restrictcontent.php. This solved the problem immediately and the plugin is now operating normally.

Replacing the file?restrict-content/restrictcontent.php?with the content of this one:

https://gist.github.com/Reedyseth/93b09bff92108d73f6797a057f9e8218
fixed de problem. Thanks!

I just released the hotfix, version 3.1.9.1. Could you all confirm that this resolves the issue?
