Thanks Tom,

haha.. I SBG I was looking for the homepage demo for 5 minutes.. haha.. actually really nice you guys build there but didn’t get it. I expected some fat button to a demo page…. anyway

I see what you mean. I think I will use the flyout menu for those main items and mega menu for anything else appropriate.

Thanks for your time.

Some crucial plugins don’t seem to be PHP 7 compatible which I believe is source of the issue. I close this topic.

I found 2 plugins which got flagged with incompatibilities for 7.2 – however deactivating them didn’t do anything. Still get 500 errors when switching to 7.2

Hi Kartik,
doing that right now – using PHP Compatibility Scanner.

Still.. the fact that I got a version of the site running on local dev environment with 7.1.2 … there shouldn’t be any major incompatibilities.

Hi Ernest,

after a long testing session we were able to pin down the issue to a plugin which requests member information through an API token. Activating/deactivating that plugin enables/re-enables the issue. So… this is not a bug in relation to your plugin but your search plugin is affected by the behaviour and restrictions of the other one.

I leave this thread open it might be useful for someone else in future and if we find a feasible solution to avoid this clash I will post it here.

cheers

Hi Ernest,
thanks for the feedback – I forward to our devs – mod_rewrite / .htaccess is a good tip.

Let you know how we go.

Thanks

Follow up with further info from our devs:

Bump: Any resolution to this issue besides ‘deactivating’ the No CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA for WooCommerce….

For anyone trying this I have found a workaround (that on initial testing works)

Using .htaccess you check for a specific query parameter and redirect to the base path URL removing the query parameters along the way.

It works in my case as the pages use a permalink structure without query parameters.
NOTE: this solution will not work for URLs with query parameters. (or can but the RewriteCondition needs reworking.

Step 1: Any cross linked page requires a custom link and an additions suffix

/path/path/?crosslink=1

Step 2: Modify the .htaccess

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} .*crosslink.*
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}? [L,R=301]

This will allow you to cross link multiple pages (all with the custom link and crosslink query parameter) and leave the actual page with the correct URL.

Worked for me! Good luck.

Update:
The custom link does not work in my case as I need the correct sub navigation to be displayed.

Situation

Parent A
— |_______Sub Nav A-1
—- |_______Sub Nav A-1-1
—- |_______Sub Nav A-1-2 … etc
— |_______Sub Nav A-2
—- |_______Sub Nav A-2-1
—- |_______Sub Nav A-2-2 … etc
Parent B
— |_______Sub Nav B-1
— |_______***Sub Nav A-2*** — Crosslink back to Parent A – SubNav A-2
Parent C
— |_______Sub Nav C-1
— |_______***Sub Nav C-2*** — Crosslink back to Parent A – 2 SubNav A-2

The current level navigation gets rendered correctly. In the above examples we assume there are 3 levels.
Within first sublevel (lvl 2 (A-1, A-2, B-1 etc) ) page we pull out the sub items to rendered a further submenu (lvl 3). In our case [ Sub Nav A-2-1, A-2-2 etc ]

Let’s call the page we want to get to Parent A => SubNav A-2 …. /parent-a/subnav-a-2
Sub navigation items within this structure are [A-2-1, A-2-2 etc ]

The problem occurs when you attempt to render Page Sub Nav A-2 and its sub navigation elements (lvl 3 navigation items list) – depending on ‘how’ you get to the page.

If you access the link via Parent B or Parent C the sub items have no children and therefore no sub navigation elements are found.

Option 1: Admin navigation select the page to link to by all sub nav items
-This fails. Either the first or last (based on widget config) is selected but this is not the case as sometimes the order of the page we need to get to is not first or last.

Option 2: Use the correct page relative to the page structure and link the other nav items with a variable (I used /?crosslink=1 )
-This fails as the navigation tree is picked up based on the full link, not the permalink/slug

Hopefully this makes sense. Any help or recommendations appreciated.

Basically IF a page is linked within the Navigation Plugin then that page has an ID of some sort. This ID can identify which branch in the navigation is the ‘correct’ branch.
An alternative could be to set some query parameter to fall back to the base URL (like my ?crosslink example which the plugin (or WP Nav) could filter by…

well that means basically that an update is the solution.
I planned to do it – just not now.

However, I got that idea:
A wordpress backend interface without major functionality (lets say a demo version) as menu point under the wordpress website.

That would be a handy cool idea
1. To see how it works on different browsers
2. For potential customers to get a look into it before download and installing

Just an idea

Thx
cheers
