ok, I just found that setting. It looks like the Cache button is Grey. When I click on Hours, it lights up. Does that mean it wasn’t even caching the slider? If so, then this may be a W3 Total Cache conflict.

When I make site changes, I would use W3 Total to purge all cache. Then clear browser cache and refresh the page. The other elements would update but not the slider. This is odd indeed.

I will have to keep testing to see where the problem is.

ok, this is seriously annoying. Has anyone else run into this problem? After activation of every plugin, I now get redirected to the backwpup activation page!

https://www.domain.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=backwpupabout

Even after uninstalling Backwpup, it still goes there, except without this plugin installed, I get an authorized message instead.

Anyone have a fix for this?

Let ma answer my own question just in case it helps anyone out there.

If you have a hidden field created in Mailchimp already, this plugin should be able to pull it up inside Form Fields. Then you choose to drop the hidden field into the form and enter “value” (ie. sidebar, header etc…). Once the user signs up, you will see this inside Mailchimp letting you know which location the sign up came from.

I will add another hidden field and use value=”{current_url}”> as well.

Cheers.

I see that value=”{current_url}”> is the URL of the person signing up, that is great too, we will add this somewhere.

But what I was referring to was from the Mailchimp documentation link that I included in the first post. They refer to appending the FORM URL like so:

form action=”//mailchimp.com.us8.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=e5baa4823db5b71c884700f56d&id=d12bb1307f7

to

form action=”//mailchimp.com.us8.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=e5baa4823db5b71c884700f56d&id=d12bb1307f7&SIGNUP=Homepage

Any idea how we can implement this?

I think I know what may be causing the Status-Code: 404.

The original site: https://www.domainA.com is still being hosted at the current server A.

We are developing https://www.domainA.com on a new server but using a host file to access it via it’s unqiue IP on server B.

Looks like BackWpUp is calling https://www.domainA.com/wp-cron.php which actually does not exist because the current site is not running WordPress.

1. It’s odd that after some fiddling, the backup did run once but not any more.

2. If the above is correct, which file / dB value can we edit to make BackWpUp to change it’s Cron call from:

https://www.domainA.com/wp-cron.php

to:

/home/domainA/public_html/wp-cron.php
or
https://UniqeuIP/wp-cron.php

This is so we can still run full backups of WordPress and all files inside public_html during the development phase.

Any ideas?

I spoke too soon. Even with password protection disabled, today for whatever reason, backwpup is not longer allowed to run yet again. Does anyone know if there is a fix for this?

Thanks. And yes, that is how I have set things up. Let me work on the roll out. If I am still here when the site goes live, I will come back and share a URL with you.

Thanks again!

ok, I tried various CSS combinations to make sure the 2 column widgets take up the full space but could not resolve the issue.

Then your comment about how the CSS got me thinking (This class should be used for every first element in a row to make sure it’s put in a new “row”.). I ended up doing exactly what you suggested before I read it and sure enough, the “3rd” widget below the 2 columns are now fixed if I choose First for the widget that was being wrapped underneath the 2 column widgets.

Initially, I just added an dummy text widget with   it as the overflow widget. Your Possible solution did fix this issue. Thanks again.

I wonder what code in my theme that could be causing this. Interesting.

Thanks for the prompt resposne. I am not exactly sure either and it’s unfortuante I cannot get you a log in at this point in time. But here is what I have done:

1. When I disable this plugin, the 2 widgets that I had placed side by side do indeed show the separation between all widgets.

2. When I enable this plugin again, the widget below the 2 columned widget gets merged into the spacing of one entire widget.

3. I am using a text widget with Genesis Sandbox.

Although this does not show causation, it does show that the problem goes away when I disable this plugin. It may just be how my particular Gensis Theme was coded in the first place.

Just did osme testing and found that the widget just below the 2 columend ones are also getting split into half of the sidebar. Looks like I was correct in thinking that the widgets are somehow getting merged without a closing tag somewhere.

Although not aesthetically correct, I will still run this plugin to get that side by side widget. It’s pretty fantastic to be able to do this without hard coding anything.

Nicely done. If you have any other things for me to try, let me know. I would be happy to run a couple of things on my end since I cannot get your access. I would love to try and resolve this issue if possible.

Thanks Jory!

Wanted to post more info just in case it may help with the troubleshooting. It seems there is a missing ul or il at the end of the columned widgets. That’s why the CSS is not including the space blocks before the next widget. Is that even possible?

Darn lag. Double post. Disregard this one.

Yes, that is how I have it set up. The site is in private dev mode so I cannot share a URL yet. Let me dig around and see if I can resolve this CSS issue. Thanks, this is a great plugin.

ok, after some testing, I got the 2 column widgets to work. The only thing I am trying to fix now is that after the 2nd widget (I am using one-hald to run 2 columns), there is no “gap’ between it and the next widget. It looks like the 2 column’ed widgets are flowing into the next widget. Normally in my sidebar, there are margins between each. After the 2nd columned widget, this gap is no longer existing. I have moved the columned widgets in various places in the sidebar and it seems the widget just after it no longer has “gaps”. Any ideas?

Odd, I chose one of the 2 widgets as one-third and then back to one-hald for both and now they are placed side by side. That is great.

One last thing. I placed a tall image in the First widget but the image is resized down. How do I keep the original image size inside this text widget?

Thanks again!

We are seeing the same issue. In the meantime, is there a way to disable recaptcha on the form until there is a resolution? Currently, the form does not pass and users cannot send in comments.
