Great, thanks.

Wow, that’s amazing to hear and truly helpful!! Thank you for letting us know. 😊🙏🏼

Hm, that’s strange as they did say they would reach out to you… In any case, I’m glad you were able to resolve this anyway.

Great! Thanks for confirming that worked. I have fixed this php error in BPS Pro 15.2.

Just double checked and I’d input into Header Retry instead – now no errors if 0 input into the correct box! Thanks.

I just tested adding the number 0 on a test site and that took care of the php error.  So most likely you just didn’t save your option setting changes.

FYI – Just tried the 0 minutes setting in MM and it caused the MM error again.

So no problem for me, I’ll just leave it as is until your update.

Great – thanks very much for your help. Excellent as always!

The gethostbyaddr() php error will only occur when you request a BPS Pro Activation Key.  The error does not cause a problem with requesting BPS Pro Activation Keys.  This php error will be fixed in BPS Pro 15.2.   You can enter any number in the Maintenance Mode Time option setting text box.  Try entering 0.  This is a nick nack issue that will…[Read more]

Thanks for your reply.

The gethostbyaddr php error has not been repeated since jan 19th.

Looking in my MM settings, I haven’t set a time for it as I wasn’t using the countdown clock. Should I still put in a time?

Cheers.

It looks that the first php error is actually a bug that needs to be fixed.  The second php error could be caused by not entering a correct value in this MMode option setting:  Maintenance Mode Time.  Valid values would be numeric: 10 for 10 minutes, 30 for 30 minutes, etc.

Nope, don’t do a reinstallation.  Are the php errors still occurring or did they just occur at one particular time?  If the php errors only occurred once then that would mean a temporary server hiccup occurred and there is nothing to fix.

Brilliant! Thanks for your help – i thought it was an alternative BPS pro one, but understand now.

Hi,

Just checked and it is the most recent version (15.1). It was a fresh install too.

Shall I reinstall a new one?

Thanks.

Ok got this figured out.  The problem is not that ManageWP and MainWP are not using the WordPress Upgrader pre_install and post_install filters.  The problem is the same problem that I ran into with handling WP Automatic Updates.  When WordPress is doing an installation/upgrade it is removing WP Core files and then adding WP Core files.  This bas…[Read more]

Do you have the most current version of BPS Pro installed?  BPS Pro 15.1?  The gethostbyaddr() issue was fixed in a previous version of BPS Pro.

@ jenni101 – The wp-admin php error log file:  /wp-admin/php_errorlog is a different php error log in your wp-admin folder.  That php error log file will be automatically recreated and updated on an ongoing basis.  So you just need to exclude that php error log file from being checked and quarantined by AutoRestore.  You can now exclude files dir…[Read more]

BPS Pro protects against: directory traversal, XSS, CSRF, etc. So the answer would be yes BPS Pro protects against these vulnerabilities

Hello,

I had the same warning showing when I initially installed BPS Pro in a new WP site.

When I looked this file (/home/me/public_html/my-site.co.uk/wp-admin/php_errorlog) was set as the error log pathway, and was in quarantine. So I followed instructions and reset the error file path to php_errorlog (which is still saved) and restored the…[Read more]
