It seems generally buggy, and it doesn’t appear to officially support WP 3.6.1. Like I said, fantastic idea, but needs some work to be fully functional and reliable. The other problem I had is that I was constantly being logged out of PHPBB. I chalked it up to not being able to set the user permissions properly, but it could be another bug. I turned the whole thing off for now.

I spent a fair amount of time trying to find where the permissions were stored in the database in the hopes that I could set them manually, but with no luck. I’m not enough of a coder to understand what’s going on in there.

I am having a similar problem; the dots are at the upper left for me. WP 3.6.1, WP-United 0.9.2.5. Locally I’m on OSX 10.8. Tried current versions of Safari, Firefox and Chrome… all of them had the same problem with the dots

I’m having problems with the user integration in general but it’s probably because I cannot set up new user permissions because of the connect-the-dots problem. I would really like to get this working on my site as it’s a fantastic idea.

Yes, I realize you have to save the changes after changing the post size box. After saving the settings, if I go to a new post, the box is the same size it always is; nothing changes. If I go back to the settings again, it does reflect the new number I entered. So the setting is sticking but it’s not actually changing the size of the box.

Is anyone having this problem, where changing this setting does not appear to do anything?

I mean in the editor. Is that not what that value in Settings changes?

Finally figured this out… I started deactivating other plugins to rule out some kind of incompatibility, and I got it on the first one… Captcha:

Deactivating this one brought back my showtime slideshows. I’ll have to use something else for captcha.

Were you able to get Uploadify working? I sunk a few hours in it and can’t figure it out. It looks like it’s uploading, but the file doesn’t go anywhere that I can find. I’ve tried the default location (which is wp-content/uploads) and both relative and absolute paths, to both pre-existing and new directories. I wonder if there’s a configuration issue on the server preventing the file from being saved.

Looks like that does what I want it to; we’ll have to mind the security warnings there so that someone can’t use this for evil. I got the plug-in installed OK but I’m having a bit of trouble configuring it to upload to the folder I want to put stuff in. I’m at work now… I’ll give it another stab tonight.

Nope. You see what I see…

As Gilda Radner’s “Emily Litela” would say, never mind!

Turns out that by uploading as many photos as I did, I exhausted the amount of available space for the site. I cleared out some stuff and was able to complete my uploads.

Sorry to raise the alarm…

Hopefully this info will be useful to someone having the blank page problem:

I was having the “blank page” problem sitewide. I could not view the site or log into the dashboard. I run WP 2.7.1 and PHP 5.2.8. I read this thread along with several others and I ended up going into the WordPress database using PHPMyAdmin to disable my plug-ins by hand. Under the wp_options table there is an “active_plugins” entry which you can edit in order to disable plugins without having access to the dashboard. If you look at the structure of the list of plugins you’ll see how much text to delete in order to disable them.

It would probably be a good idea to back up your entire database before attempting any of this, BTW.

After I edited and saved the entry in PHPMyAdmin, the blank pages went away and the site loaded fine, as well as the admin side. You can then re-activate plug-ins one by one to see where the problem is. In my case it was very strange… I’m currently still building the site so it’s not public yet, so nobody had been on it. One day it worked fine, then I didn’t even touch it that evening, and the next morning the blank pages had invaded. If it was indeed a bad plugin, I’m not sure what activated it or caused it to start making trouble.

But anyway, <phew>… crisis averted. My thanks to all the participants on this forum for their good documentation of these errors.
