In fact, isset won’t work since posts are set but null. So instead, add is_null check, making line 317:

if ( ! is_null( $wp_query->posts ) && 0 < count( $wp_query->posts ) ) {

I tested with this code, and it no longer throws errors.

Thanks again.

Hi – I see you made a change to address this in the latest version. However, the new code now generates a different error:

count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable in /wp-content/plugins/otter-blocks /inc/class-registration.php on line 317

The problem is that $wp_query->posts is not set. So instead of checking the count, please change to isset($wp_query->posts).

Thanks

Thanks a lot for the quick fix!

The error was generated when accessing an author page via the query string, and the author doesn’t exist. For example:

https://mywebsite.com/?author=333

Hi – there was an error message in the logs about the catalog:

Unable to detect valid feed configuration: No catalog ID

I created a new catalogue and after that, the connection worked.

Hmm – now it’s working all by itself.

No, the attacks are not being blocked – that’s the problem. Doesn’t WordFence see repeated attempts (1 per second for 2 hours) as a brute force attack and block the IP at its firewall, same as it does for repeated attempts to access wp-login.php?

Here is a screen shot of the live traffic from yesterday. Notice that none of the attempts are blocked. Why aren’t they blocked?

Thanks

Rules are now updating as normally on both my Dreamhost sites. Thanks!

Hi – I have removed basic auth so you can have a look at the absolute positioning. Search for “fund” and you’ll see the images display over the title/description.

Thanks

The meta fields are available for the individual pages in the places you state. However, they are not available for the archive page, the one that lists all the custom posts (see the url above). This is not a page in the sense that you can see it in the backend under Pages. It’s a WP generated page (like category, or date pages). So there is no way to add the meta data via the backend since it doesn’t appear in Pages, and does not show in bulk meta content editor. Yoast allows you to do this via the backend, and via a filter. I have not found any way to do this with your plugin, which is why I was hoping you have a filter or some other way to add this data. Thanks

Thanks for coming back to me. The site is a test site, so don’t worry about missing images. The other two are a problem, but not a huge one.

The main problems are to do with images being the wrong size, and absolutely positioned. For example, if you search for “fund”, you’ll see that the main image is huge (css missing width:100%; on img). For the three products on the left, the image is showing over the description. Problem is absolute positioning in the css. If you could have a look at fixing those, I’d appreciate it.

Many thanks for your help, and for a great plugin.

Hmmm. I just regenerated the sitemaps, and this is now working. So must have been an issue when I originally generated them. I will write back if it happens again.

That worked. I also had to resave Permalinks for the site to pick up the changes.

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. Understood that the calendar itself isn’t responsive so I will try one of the above solutions.

I saw that the demo for fullcalendar.io shows a list view. Is it possible to display the plugin calendar like that, eg by overriding a template?

If not, I’ve already coded an upcoming events widget, so I could modify that to make my own list.

I’m having the same issue – unable to save changes to settings.

No #WAF path defs in my .htaccess. There is no user.ini in the root.

Nothing in the error logs either.

Do you have any other ideas? Thanks.
