Thanks for your reply.

I had already moved all the plugins, and at some point I had changed the theme, but I think that was earlier when trying to solve another problem.

I just did it all again and the permalinks now work, although I still get the message that my .htaccess is not writable.

I then pulled the most important plugins back in and it still worked. Next I switched back to Suffusion and it’s still working, so I don’t know what’s going on. I’ll do more testing tomorrow.

I also played with the new installation and its problem went away when I switched from TwentyTwenty to TwentyNineteen. I just switched back and it also seems to work properly. I have no idea what’s going on in both cases, but I can see I have a lot of testing ahead of me.

Thanks for the reply Reedyseth.

I changed the user email address to a different one for testing and it worked. I then changed it back to the original address and it continued to work.

That was several days ago and it continues to work so I guess I’ll put it down to gremlins.

So I have no idea what the actual problem was.

I’m sure I’m missing something, but won’t this work in both cases if you just reverse the strings?

if (strpos(get_option(‘siteurl’), $_SERVER[‘HTTP_REFERER’]) !== false)

Or will that cause other problems?

——————————————

Okay, I just tried it and it doesn’t work, so I’m obviously not understanding how this stuff works.

I’ll leave the test commented out and continue playing with the plugin.

Thanks for your help, and thanks for the plugin.

I’m not familiar with JavaScript, but I assume strpos looks for the occurrence of the first string in the second.

In my case, the directory WordPress is installed in is https://mysite.com/site so surely a test for the occurrence of https://mysite.com would return true?

Thanks for your reply, Gopi. That indeed fixed the problem, but obviously I’d rather fix it without altering your code if that’s possible.

Do you have any suggestions for what might be wrong to make that test fail?

Thanks for your reply, Tara.

I haven’t tried a different email address, as emails from the Subscribe To Comments plugin get through, but I will, just in case there is something weird going on there.

Thanks for that. I lowered it to 8 and it succeeded.

Thanks for the reply. I was unable to get my host to increase memory allocation in the past, so I’ll finish this process by hand.

I don’t know if this means anything, but I just looked at the server log and there are hundreds of entries like this, and more are being added every few seconds.

[02/Apr/2014:17:51:41 -0400] "POST /site/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php HTTP/1.1" 200 554 "https://mysite.com/site/wp-admin/admin.php?import=blogger" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:28.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/28.0"

Running it again and it just sits on “Importing…” with the images progress bar at about 50%. No new entries are made to the debug log.

Oh, and I have disable all plugins and set the theme to 2014.

Thanks Andy. I just deactivated all plugins and it’s now importing.

I did enable debugging and got a message about a problem with Google Fonts before I disabled the plugins, so it was probably the Easy Google Fonts plugin.

But the importer locked up about half way though importing images. I see a couple of other posts about a similar problem, so I’ll try the suggestions from those.

Thanks for the reply.

Your result surprises me. I have a test site where I only installed Podlove web player and ShareThis. That site exhibits the same problem.

I don’t believe I’ve added a follow button, just a Tweet button, AFAIK.

My site is https://mike-warren.net

I’ve found the cause. It looks like there is a clash between Podlove Web Player plugin and the ShareThis plugin.

Unfortunately, I don’t know how to determine which plugin is actually at fault so I guess I need to start looking for another audio player.
