Form doesn’t appear with my theme enabled

[kenrutherford]

I reverted to “TwentyEleven” and the form showed up. I then used my current theme with all but TEC and CE plugins disabled. Still no good. Just shows a blank page. Any suggestions?

Hi Ken – I’ll move this across to the Community Events forum so that our expert for that plugin can help. Standby! 🙂

Ken,
Thanks for reaching out and sorry to hear you’re having this issue. Can you try to reset your permalinks to see if that helps to resolve the issue? Just go to ‘WordPress Settings->Permalinks’ and click ‘Save’ again.

Let me know if that has any effect on the issue. Thanks!

Hi Casey.
I reset the permalinks and it is still not behaving.
I see this message at the bottom of the page, however:
“If your .htaccess file were writable, we could do this automatically, but it isn’t so these are the mod_rewrite rules you should have in your .htaccess file. Click in the field and press CTRL + a to select all.” (followed by some code)
Could this be affecting it?

[Casey]

Ken,
That’s most likely the issue. You should change the permissions of your .htaccess file to 644, or create a blank .htaccess file in the root of your WordPress installation if one doesn’t already exist.

Here’s a good article on changing permissions: http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions

Let me know if that does the trick! Thanks!

OK. I did chmod the .htaccess file to 644. I then reset the permalinks and the message did, in fact go away. However, the form still does not appear in my theme:

Any additional suggestions are more than welcome since I’m kinda dead in the water. Thanks.

Ken,
Can you send me a private reply and give me temporary access to your dashboard? I just want to verify that your settings are correct. Thanks!

[kenrutherford]

This reply is private.

Ken,
Try modifying your theme’s page.php template to the following and see if this fixes the issue: http://pastebin.com/GFw6kuKN

[kenrutherford]

No. It didn’t help. Plan B?

[Casey]

Ken,
I’m noticing that the page markup just ends right after the “breadcrumb” div. Could you turn on PHP errors to see if there’s an error that’s occurring, but just not displaying?

[kenrutherford]

I’m not familiar with how to do that. Sorry.

[Casey]

Create a text file with the following in it:


error_reporting = E_ALL
display_errors = On


Then save that file as php.ini and upload to the root of your WordPress directory. Let me know when that’s done, and we’ll see if any PHP errors are being generated.

[kenrutherford]

done.

[Casey]

Ken,
Unfortunately I’m still not seeing any PHP errors. As this seems to be an issue with your theme (since the default theme was displaying correctly), I’d suggest you reach out to the developer of your theme for further support.

Let us know if they have any questions for us, as we’d be happy to assist them to make sure their theme is compatible.

Thanks!
