    The following errors are showing up on my site’s back-end after upgrading to the latest version:

    Slideshow Gallery: It seems like your theme is missing the wp_head() function

    Slideshow Gallery: It seems like your theme is missing the wp_footer() function

    Even though both are included in my theme files:
    wp_head() function is present in header.php before </head> tag
    wp_footer() function is present in footer.php before </body> tag

  • Yes, this just happened to a client site as well.

    Hi guys

    Is it possible that you have a caching plugin installed which could cause this?

    I look forward to your response.

    Nope no caching plugin installed.
    > Twentytwelve Child
    > Advanced Custom Fields Pro
    > Akismet
    > Jetpack by WordPress.com (no caching)
    > Limit Login Attempts
    > Under Construction (site is not live)

    Could it be as it’s hidden behind a coming soon page?
    Going live today- can see then.

    Thanks

    EDIT: Previous version did not throw this error; and nothing else changed except a new version of Jetpack I believe.

    Yes, most likely the under construction page, that’s right.

    Just went live- and the error is gone.
    Thanks again for your lovely plugin.

    Is there a PayPal I can buy you a beer or a fruit juice ??

    Great, glad to hear that.
    I’ve emailed you as well.

    @hortons-art

    Do you maybe have a maintenance mode plugin active like Flexer above?

    Nope…No maintenance mode plugin like Flexer.

    Same issue for me to. I have cleared cache but I am running a CDN. I updated the plugin and cleared all cache’s and purged CDN but still have error. I have had to revert back to a previous version.

    No Maintenance mode plugins installed

    Why is this marked “RESOLVED”? It’s not “resolved” at all.

    I don’t know why this topic was marked as resolved. I’ve reset it.

    Thank you for your responses guys.

    The wp_head/wp_footer detection will place HTML comments in the header and footer when accessed via a specific URL. The only thing that could prevent this check from failing is if the wp_head() or wp_footer() functions aren’t available or alternatively cache or another plugin conflicting.

    The idea of the detection is to help users add wp_head() and wp_footer() if it isn’t present so that the plugin would work as intended.

    If the plugin works fine then the errors can be ignored.

    We will release an update shortly with a close/X link on the errors in the dashboard so that you can just hide them so they don’t bother you anymore.

    We are having this problem while using the Genesis Framework. We can’t figure out why the error is there. We don’t have a caching plugin or maintenance mode plugin – the site is live.

    Is this error showing because Genesis doesn’t use the typical footer.php and header.php in the child theme folder?

    How can we work around this? Can you please provide a solution?

    Hi guys

    We’ve added an X icon/link in the messages in version 1.5.2 of the Slideshow Gallery plugin so that you can hide those messages about wp_head and wp_footer if you don’t want to see them.
