[Plugin: Custom Coming Soon Page] doesn’t work with 3,0

It worked for me in 3.0 ? Are you sure that you were not logged in when you viewed the site?

I have used this on a few sites before and it was one of my favourite plugins. Now it does not work on 3.0.

sad face ??

not working in 3.1.1 either

not working for me on 3.0.1

so how about we post what’s wrong . . .

I used to use this plug all the time, recently though I’m getting a ‘too many redirects error’ after installing.

had to log in to file manager and remove plug to fix

PLEASE FIX! I got the same problem with 3.0.1. Installs successfully, but then get this error message after trying to activate plugin: “../wp-admin/options-general.php?page=coming-soon-settings has resulted in too many redirects. Clearing your cookies for this site or allowing third-party cookies may fix the problem. If not, it is possibly a server configuration issue and not a problem with your computer.” Error 310 (net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS): There were too many redirects. Was working fine before I did the upgrade to 1.0.9. Really like this plugin. Please update or provide older Version than 1.0.8. That one doesn’t work either anymore? Thanks.

Hi all,

At present I am on version 3.1.3 and this didn’t work for me also ?? I also got the ‘too many redirects..’ error.

I tried googling to find the solution but to no success. The questions about this error are there on the plugin developer’s blog also.

btw, the good news is that I just found out the exact part of code which is causing the problem and also found a workaround for this. ?? Moreover, I am not into PHP so don’t much about replacing the erroneous part of code. But the plugin will work as usual. ??

Follow these steps and you will be good to go:
1. Install this plugin on your wordpress blog and DO NOT click the ‘Activate’ button.
2. Click on ‘Edit’ instead.
3. Search for these lines in the code
if(get_option('sp_settings_check') == '0')
4. Once you get this, comment out the code shown above and the 2 lines of code following that. After commenting your code should look like this,

//if(get_option('sp_settings_check') == '0') {
//    header('location:'.get_bloginfo('wpurl').'/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=coming-soon-settings'); // Change URL as per page
//}

5. Now click on the ‘Update’ button.
6. Go to the Plugins page and activate this plugin.
7. Voila, its done.. ??
8. The options for this plugin are under ‘CJ Coming Soon’ page under the Settings tab in the panel on left !!

I have tested this and its working for me…

Hope this helps.

Thanks & Njoy !!
