Pro-Sites 3.2.1: upgrade page dismiss error

Hi Guys,

One of my users did inform me about an error. I recreate the error by creating a new site. When you click on “No, I will continue with a free site for now” you will get a blank screen for there is a “/” missing in the url between wp-admin and index.php:

http://mysite.com/wp-adminindex.php?psts_dismiss=1

Same problem if one clicks one “bulk-upgrades”:

http://mysite.com/wp-adminadmin.php?page=psts-bulk-upgrades

regards

Hi @gdharre

Greetings from the WPMU DEV Support Team and thank you for being a member of our community.

I am not able to recreate this error, so is it possible to provide me with a link to your site so that I can have a look at this myself?

If you prefer to keep the link private you can send it via our Contact Form, for my attention.

Thank you and look forward to receive your feedback.

PS: I made some code changings:

//show dismiss button link if needed

if (get_blog_option($blog_id, 'psts_signed_up') && !apply_filters('psts_prevent_dismiss', false) ) {

$content .= '<tr class="psts_level level-free">

<td valign="middle" class="level-name"><h3>'.$this->get_setting('free_name', __('Free', 'psts')).'</h3></td>';

$content .= '<td class="level-option" colspan="'.count($periods).'">';

$content .= '<a class="pblg-checkout-opt" style="width: '.$free_width.'" id="psts-free-option" href="'.get_admin_url($blog_id,'/', 'http').'/index.php?psts_dismiss=1'.'" title="'.__('Dismiss', 'psts').'">'.$this->get_setting('free_msg', __('No thank you, I will continue with a basic site for now', 'psts')).'</a>';

$content .= '</td></tr>';

}

…which is probably not correct (but it gives as result the correct url)

Original is:

//show dismiss button link if needed

if (get_blog_option($blog_id, 'psts_signed_up') && !apply_filters('psts_prevent_dismiss', false) ) {

$content .= '<tr class="psts_level level-free">

<td valign="middle" class="level-name"><h3>'.$this->get_setting('free_name', __('Free', 'psts')).'</h3></td>';

$content .= '<td class="level-option" colspan="'.count($periods).'">';

$content .= '<a class="pblg-checkout-opt" style="width: '.$free_width.'" id="psts-free-option" href="'.get_admin_url($blog_id, 'index.php?psts_dismiss=1', 'http').'" title="'.__('Dismiss', 'psts').'">'.$this->get_setting('free_msg', __('No thank you, I will continue with a basic site for now', 'psts')).'</a>';

$content .= '</td></tr>';

}

Hi @gdharre

Just a quick note to say that I didn’t get any email via the Contact Form marked for my attention since you posted to the forum with the update.

Please resend the information to gina at incsub dot com and I will have a look at it. Note that it’s nearly time for me to get some shuteye, so if I don’t get to it today, I will look out for your email tomorrow.

Once I have the link and other information I will also provide feedback on the code (will review it with the Developer).

Talk soon again!

Hiya gdharre,

Just looked into this one myself and with the latest version I did not encounter this issue. I ran a couple tests and wasn’t able to recreate it.

You’re sure it’s only happening on free sites? Could be a server setup issue. I’m going to ask the developer to drop in with any thoughts he may have.

Thanks!

It definitely is something configured weird with your wp install. That’s a core wp function so should take care of the slash for you. I would guess this might be affecting other links n wp as well.

Is this a subdomain or subdirectories install? What are the values in the db for site_url and home_url in a problem blogs options table?

Greetings all,

ohh “fantastic”

okay, it’s an install with subdomains. (On our Server nginx is running)

This is how the ngnix.conf it is configuered:

user  nginx;

worker_processes  4;

worker_rlimit_nofile 100000;

error_log   /var/log/nginx/error.log;

pid        /var/run/nginx.pid;



events {

worker_connections  1024;

use epoll;

}



http {

include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;

default_type  application/octet-stream;



log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '

'$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '

'"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';



access_log  /var/log/nginx/access.log  main;



sendfile        on;

tcp_nopush      on;

tcp_nodelay     on;

server_tokens   off;

gzip            on;

#gzip_static     on;

gzip_comp_level 9;

gzip_min_length 256;

keepalive_timeout  65;



server {

listen       80;

server_name  lakajira.com *.lakajira.com;

client_max_body_size	256m;

client_body_buffer_size	256k;

server_name_in_redirect off;



location / {

root   /srv/http/lakajira.com/;

index  index.php;



if (!-e $request_filename) {

rewrite ^.*/files/(.*)$ /wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 last;

rewrite ^.+?(/wp-.*) $1 last;

rewrite ^.+?(/.*.php)$ $1 last;

rewrite ^ /index.php last;

}

}



location ~ .php$ {

root	   /srv/http/lakajira.com/;

index	   index.php;

fastcgi_pass   unix://var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;

fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;

include        fastcgi_params;

}

}



# Load config files from the /etc/nginx/conf.d directory

include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;



}

What else could be configured weird?

kind regards

Dorina

Ok, I had a similar issue with my site not too long ago, and I think the problem was I didn’t have these defined in wp_config:
```
$base = '/';

define('PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
```
Do you have both of those in there somewhere?

Greetings Aaron,

yes I checked wp_config… this is a part of the file:
```
define('WP_DEBUG', false);

define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);

define( 'MULTISITE', true );

define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', true );

$base = '/';

define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'lakajira.com' );

define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
```
It’s frustrating.. you said it’s a core function of wordpress, do you know any other plugin or theme what uses that function, or how else we could test the function to reproduce the error with another than your plugin? It’s weird, isn’t it?

If it is a core function, it’s not very probably that there is a conflict with another installed plugin?
Aaron

It’s used throughout core, but normally without a special path passed. I found one place though, if you visit the import page on a subblog and try to import with one that’s not installed it shows this message:

This importer is not installed. Please install importers from <a href="%s">the main site</a>

Can you see if that link is broken for you?

Ooh, also in the admin bar under my sites: https://skitch.com/uglyrobot/83wcu/anti-splog-settings-network-admin-wordpress

There also is a ‘admin_url’ filter that a plugin could be messing with. You could try grepping your plugins folder for that.

I checked both: every links are woking fine, it’s not broken!
gdharre
- Design Lord, Child of Thor
- 64 pts: Hero points 80 pts: Rep. points LEVEL 3
yes okay, I will check the plugin folder and try to figure out, if there is a plugin causing that issue.

I will come back soon.

Thank you so far for your great support!

Found it!!!

Buddypress Multilingual does cause that issue!

Okay.. now your plugin works and we have another problem now… with using buddypress in different languages *sighs*

Anyway thank you for your great help!

Great that you got it sorted!

Re: BuddyPress Multilingual – you might checkout WPML: http://wpml.org/ They do really terrific work and we have integration with some of our products over there. Not sure about BuddyPress but would be a good place to start.

Thanks. I’m marking this one as resolved. If you have any further difficulties, feel free to re-open this thread or open a new ticket.
