“New Blog Templates” plugin by WPMU DEV in multisite it is not working #2

Open enmassellc opened 4 years ago

enmassellc commented 4 years ago

I created a multisite WordPress site mywebsite.com, I added new site(website) using subdomains simplepack.mywebsite.com. I am trying to create a template using the site simplepack.mywebsite.com and the “New Blog Templates” plugin by WPMU DEV. The template1.mywebsite.com will be a copy of simplepack.mywebsite.com. My hosting is with Godaddy and it is a VPS Server. I created the template but I am getting the message “You don't have permission to access this resource. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.“ “Not Found The requested URL was not found on this server.Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.” In the uploads/sites I see that there is created a file with the site ID number but the directory is empty. In the main directory I have “wildcard” and in the DNS Management I have A * 00.00.00.00(the value ). I do not know why the template plugin do not copy the simplepack.mywebsite.com tables in to the template directory and why the wildcard is not working. I asked assistants from Godaddy on the wildcard setting and they said that it is set properly. I spent weeks trying to find the solution, please help! Thank you!!!!! Website: https://emmsites.com/

I resolved the 403 Forbidden error changing the *.mysites.com subdomain to direct to "/public_html " but the plugin is still not copying(cloning) the simplepack.mywebsite.com tables in to the template files directory . I would really appreciate some help.

In the "error_log" I found the errors; [03-Jan-2020 05:35:15 UTC] PHP Warning: include_once(/home/mysites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/blogtemplates-master/blogtemplatesfiles/externals/wpmudev-dash-notification.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mysites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/blogtemplates-master/blogtemplates.php on line 58 [03-Jan-2020 05:35:15 UTC] PHP Warning: include_once(): Failed opening '/home/mysites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/blogtemplates-master/blogtemplatesfiles/externals/wpmudev-dash-notification.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/opt/cpanel/ea-php71/root/usr/share/pear') in /home/mysites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/blogtemplates-master/blogtemplates.php on line 58 [03-Jan-2020 05:35:15 UTC] PHP Warning: include_once(/home/mysites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/default-theme-master/external/dash-notice/wpmudev-dash-notification.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mysites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/default-theme-master/default-theme.php on line 113 [03-Jan-2020 05:35:15 UTC] PHP Warning: include_once(): Failed opening '/home/mysites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/default-theme-master/external/dash-notice/wpmudev-dash-notification.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/opt/cpanel/ea-php71/root/usr/share/pear') in /home/mysites/public_html/wp-content/plugins/default-theme-master/default-theme.php on line 113

Hi @enmassellc ,

This is because the plugin needs to run the grunt build task first. In order to better handle this though I just made a minor change that should fix this issue for you as it is. You can try one of the following:

  1. Run the grunt task (it might be a bit complicated if you are not familiar) or
  2. Re-download and replace the entire plugin or
  3. Just change file blogtemplates/blogtemplates.php in line 58 similar to how it's done here : https://github.com/wpmudev/blogtemplates/commit/2ec05c5ce5723478cbdbc08083fef346640f92e0

I find the 3rd one the easiest one :)

Hi, Thank you for your tips. After long days and nights I found that I have to create the new sites in same database with the multisite site. I had them in the same hosting but different databases. This tip could save me a lot of time. About the wildcard domain, first I trusted the Godaddy agents to fix it but they were wrong. With everything been in the same database the wildcard had to be set to direct to public_html. For now everything is working so I am very happy. Thank you!
