mailto:Emilio@BraveNewCode) you can try to manually remove the conflicting plugin’s ‘hooks’.

1. Find all the hooks (add_action and add_filter) the plugin does by looking inside the files included in the .ZIP file of the plugin you wish to disable.

Example: If the plugin does 

add_filter(‘the_content’,’my_the_content’)

, you’ll need to do

remove_filter(‘the_content’,’my_the_content’)

 in the functions.php of a child theme.

2. Add all the remove_filter and remove_action to your child theme’s functions.php files.

Note: Not all plugins can be disabled this way. If the plugin’s hooks are dependent on 

$this

 we won’t be able disable them and they’ll need to be disabled via WordPress. Plugin hooks that are dependent on 

$this

 look similar to this:

add_action( ‘init’, array( &$this, ‘my_init’ ) );

 

But I don’t trust myself editing the code…

I am not even sure what he is referring to. If he means SP hooks then that would just disable SP completely.

SP should not be loading any hooks on non-forum pages any way – we do make quite stringent checks for this. We have had other users utilising wp-touch but I must admit that this has not been tried with V5.

The bottom line is that we need to determine what component might be encroaching on the rest of WP. Can you start, perhaps, by disabling all SP plugins so that just the core is running? See if that resolvers it.

The problem persists with all SP Plugins disabled.

One other note… the Simple Press Page is working fine… on all other pages the content is gone.

I am not even sure what he is referring to. If he means SP hooks then that would just disable SP completely.

That was my first thought as well. That is why I was reluctant to proceed.

I’m stuck with this problem, it renders my websites useless for mobile users. Any ideas?

None at all I am afraid.

How easy and straightforward is wptouch to set up? If I find the time I could try a few tests depending on how quick that process is…

It is actually straight forward like any plugin, and I use it with the standard mobile theme.

No need to own a iPhone. You can switch the user agent in safari to experience it on a Mac (sorry, i work with macs only)

Oh – Mac suits me just fine. It’s all I have. Not a PC in te house!

No promises as to when but I will try and take a look. Today if I find the time

well of course I can’t try with ‘Pro’ because I would rather not buy it!

But with the standard, free version (3.0) all seems well. I don’t seem to have any problems at all.

Sorry to hear that… If access to my system could help, I’m willing to provide…
Can tell you that Simple Press 4 did not have that problem.

I really need to be able to look at the code itself.

Thanks for the note on the captcha. Will look into it…

yeah, ios js compatibility has proven very weak and more problematic than others like android… actually, no mobile device fully supports js/jquery currently… 

will have to test the captcha on more mobile devices, but may end up needing to disable it on mobiles… 

bottom line, as we have always said, simple press requires javascript…  we try to work around some of the mobile device limitations…

Thanks Mr. Papa, I understand…

Again… regarding the WPtouch Pro, I can provide full access to the WP install to investigate. Sadly, BraveNewCode gave up on it.

we are still discussing and evaluating what to do with captcha on mobile devices…
