Since Connections is currently not active, delete it and then re-install it. WordPress.org will install the 0.8.1 version. After it installs, you should be able to activate it normally.

Tip, if the plugin causes an error upon activation, login to your site with FTP and go to the ../wp-content/plugins/ folder and delete the plugin. In the case of Connections, the folder would have been named connections. Deleting it would have restored you site in working order minus Connections. No need to go thru the trouble of restoring backups.

Hope that helps!

fyi, I did push out the 0.8.1 update earlier today, so you should see it as an update on the WordPress Updates admin page.

I’ll have to release an update to Tile Plus to address this… basically the break occurs after first character change of the last name.

Here’s how you can fix it now without waiting for an update to Tile Plus:

Login to you site with FTP.
Navigate to the ../wp-content/uploads/ folder.
In that folder create a new folder named:
connections-templates
In the connections-templates folder create a folder named:
tile-plus
In tile-plus folder create a new file named:
tile-plus-custom.css
Edit that file so the contents are:

#cn-tile-plus .cn-list-section-head.cn-clear {
    clear: none;
}

Save the file.

When you refresh the page, the tiles should appear correct.

Hope that helps!

Great to hear … I wonder if it was a caching plugin such as W3TC or such… after adding entries, you would need to flush the page cache.

This seems to affect users where the server is still on PHP 5.2. I fixed the issue and will be releasing a a fix shortly in version 0.8.1. To restore your site to working order, do the following:

Login to the site using FTP.
Go to the ../wp-content/plugins/ folder
Delete the connections folder.

You site will now run normally.

To get Connections back, you can install it again from the admin … your data is safe.

Apologies for the trouble!

All…

I figured it out. This will only affect those where the server is still on PHP 5.2. This is why I could not duplicate the issue. I’ll be releasing version 0.8.1 shortly.

@ Mario

Thanks for the login! I tested the fix on your site and all is well, Connections activated without issue.

@ Mario

Thanks for the login! Can I get a FTP login too, even if limited to just the plugins folder. Purpose, so I can activate Connections and deactivate it via FTP in case the admin will not load after activating.

Thanks!

Presently there is not a method to edit the entry name slug once it has been created.

Copying the entry and deleting the original should work fine … what do you mean by blank screen? Can you update to the 0.8 version which was just released and see if the issue persists? If it does, can I get a temp admin account so I can take a look?

@ Matthew

I just noticed a small bug … I’ll have to push out a bug fix later this week. My instructions still apply, they just will have no affect until I release the bug fix. Apologies!

@ Matthew

Create a new text text file using Notepad and save it with the following contents named as cn-custom.css.

#cn-list span.cn-image {
   width: auto !important;
   height: auto !important;
}

#cn-list span.cn-image img.photo {
   width: 100% !important;
   height: auto !important;
}

Login to you site using FTP and go to this folder:
../wp-content/uploads/

Create a new folder named: connections-templates.

Upload the cn-custom.css to the connections-templates.

That should do it.
