Hi.
I just installed this plugin on my Wordpress 2.2.3 blog. However, the settings on options > WP-Simpleviewer dont get saved. On clicking 'update options' button, I am simply redirected to the dashboard.
Ditto if I try creating thumbnails. I am simply redirected.
Do you have any clues?
Thanks in advance
Maybe the files of the plugin have not been uploaded completely or it conflicts with another plugin? Because this is something that normally works well...
Hi Markus,
I reinstalled the plugin, disabled all other plugins, but it still doesnt work:( Are there any values in the php file I must change?
Thanks :)
No there is no need to change the php code for that! Are you sure that you really use the plugins option page (not the one under the manage menu? Can you check that all options have been set up in your database? They all start with wp_simpleviewer
Hey Markus,
Ok, this is wild (wink).
I checked MYSQL admin, and was surprised to see that wp_simpleviewer table was never created in it. So the plugin shows 'active' on plugins page, but the table was not created in mysql db.
Other plugins work fine. What could make the db inaccessible to the simpleviewer script? I'm using wp since ages and this has really got me intrigued :)
cheers
No, there is no additional table called wp_simpleviewer, the table where the options are saved is called options, that's the one where all Wordpress options are stored.
Just the name of the options starts with wp_simpleviewer.
Hi
There is no wp_simpleviewer option inside the wp_options table either.
Does this have anything to do with my sql server is not being on 'localhost'?
thanks
No, I don't think so - I am only using standard wp functions to add the options. Are you sure that you have visited the plugins options page? Url of it is like http://youradress.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=wp-simpleviewer.php or you open it in the menu under Manage > WP-Simpleviewer
Yeah man, I tried that.
Can I create the wp_simpleviewer options in SQL manually? Or copy your settings? I don't want to giveup on this amazing plugin.
this is really strange...of course you could set these values manually but I think that this won't make you happy in long term. MAybe the new version helps you - the way the plugin is configured has changed a bit.
If you want to do it manually - you can get the names of the setting from the php file, but there are about 20 options to add!
