I’ve been able to log into my EVE account today, and I’ve updated the plugin to 1.2.4, so I’m hoping that fixes your issue.

Check the PHP file for the plugin, it has an email address in it.

Email me via the plugin’s email address about trying this PLEX reactivation ??

That’s a possible solution I suppose, but it’ll have to wait till the weekend when I have time free.

The documentation for the EVE API is available at https://www.eveonline.com/api/doc/data-charsheet.asp

Does this error come up when adding your own characters or someone else’s ?

I’ve fixed some issues with the EVE plugin, give the latest version a try ??

There’s an update to the plugin that fixes some issues with the EVE API, although I can’t say if it’ll resolve your issue.

Well it seems I can’t use the API without reactivating my account ($20 seems to be unreasonable to pay to get a bug fixed)

The reason this error message is being produced is because the name, gender, race or blood line data is missing from the EVE api response. Which is odd, given that the documentation indicates this information should still be present.

If you go to line 121 in /metaverses/eve.php and add in var_dump($data); you’ll be able to see the source code of the API request if you “view source” on the plugin page after trying to cache the EVE profile.

If the dump doesn’t resemble the example in the API documentation (see https://www.eveonline.com/api/doc/data-charsheet.asp ), then there’s something funky going on and I’ll unfortunately have to remove EVE support from MV-ID until I can afford to spend $20 on a game I’m not playing.

I’ll need to go signup for EVE again to debug this fully, shouldn’t take too long.

The error message suggests you do not have cURL enabled on your PHP installation; You need to go find the entry for php_curl.dll in your php.ini file and uncomment the line so PHP loads the extension.

Let me know if this doesn’t work ??

I can’t seem to duplicate this bug, since on my local install the following returns true:

(bool)preg_match('/^(\w+)\ (\w+)$/','? ?')

Could you create a spare character (as opposed to an existing one in case you don’t want WordPress users saying hi ?? ) using a name that breaks in mv-id ?

I don’t currently have an EVE account, so I can’t readily test this at the moment.

I’m going to hazard a guess that dropping in https://svn.wp-plugins.org/metaverse-id/trunk/metaverses/eve.php in place of the /metaverses/eve.php you have on your blog should now result in a message of “API Authentication failed, userID paramter was not passed to API”

I’ll need to go setup a trial account again fairly soon to test this problem thoroughly.

I’ve added some error feedback that was missing from the EVE Online plugin, and I’ve also fixed a bug that I discovered was interfering with the admin settings for EVE.

Let me know if Metaverse ID 1.2.1 fixes your problem.

As for the STO (and CO) character images, Cryptic’s HTML doesn’t appear to give sufficient information to return a thumbnail-sized image (I’ve avoided adding default CSS so I don’t accidentally interfere with other plugins or themes).

I’ve never been able to get 5.1.6 working on the local box. I’d have to compile 5.1.6 to run on the remote box to test it thoroughly (though the complete lack of syntax error messages, var_dump() not working etc. seems a bit odd.

Since you’ve got it working on the new vps, don’t forget to mark the topic as resolved.

I’m glad you like it ??
