The issue is support over HTTPS. Saw in another post that you don’t support https.

Thanks for your help! Strangely enough, I can see it on mobile devices but not for desktop… Almost there!

Hi Katrina,

Same problem for me (genesis theme) over at insidethevatican.com. Inserting code via simple hooks and have tried several places. The placeholder text is in the source code and the site is indexed properly, but nothing showing up.

Mikey,

Thanks for helping with this.

I’m having the same problem as the other users in this thread. Gives me a message to enjoy a cup of coffee, but hangs.

When I check wp-content/backups, I can see that every attempt at backing up creates the directory and successfully backs up .htaccess, and nothing else. If I delete the directory, this program will repeat the process.

I installed cron-view, and noticed a hanging cron job.

I then added this to my theme’s function file:

add_action(“init”, “clear_crons_left”);
function clear_crons_left() {
wp_clear_scheduled_hook(“execute_instant_drobox_backup”);
}

And cleared it. But when I uninstall, reinstall, and then uninstall it again, the cron remains after the plugin is gone. I add the same code to my functions.php file to clear the job.

In a different but perhaps related issue, I had to fix some ownership of files in my wordpress directory to match the user running apache (www-data) in order to do an automatic backup. Once I fixed them (made everything in my public_html file owned by www-data, I could auto-update.

Thanks for your help!

Cheers,

That sounds great. Thank you!

Look forward to getting the update.

Well, I uninstalled wordpress by deleting everything, reinstalled 2.8.3, reloaded my plugins one-by-one, and then updated to 2.8.4 after there was no change. I also set all of my directories to 644, and certain themes and plugins tied to the themese (sIFR) to 666. After this, I was able to change my templates on my pages.

The equivelant of this 100 years ago would have been called a “good bloodletting”.

Hope this little epic helps someone some day!

Today I’ve gone back through my snapshot backups and restored first the theme folder, and then the entire plugin folder to no avail. I’ve also tried switching themes, and deleting my entire plugin folder.

This seems to indicate that this is therefore not a problem with any specific plugin, css style or template file.

I’m not sure what to try next–

Please help wordpress community! My dignity in a monastery in the mountains of central Italy depends on this. Free blessings for anyone who can help.

I am having this same very annoying problem, but have neither Suhosin nor access to my php.ini file (we’re hosted by Yahoo). This started seemingly out of the blue — perhaps after I installed a statcounter and calendar plugin. Both have been disabled and deleted and the problem persists. I can see all my custom templates in the dropdown menu for my pages, but WordPress won’t keep the changes after I apply.

Help! And thanks in advance.
