If I click on "options" or "deactivate" for any plugin in the Plugin Management panel, a 404 error results. The options to not appear and the plugin does not deactivate. No errors appear in the error log.

Possibly related: all of the images next to the plugins in the Plugin Management panel show as broken and do not load when I try to load them directly, even though they are where they're supposed to be on the server.

For example, this image does not load:

/wp-admin/wp-content/plugins/simple-press/admin/resources/images/sp_Yes.png

Its permissions are 644, as are the other non-loading images in that folder.

Also possibly related: my entire website is currently behind an htpasswd. But I am able to do everything else fine, as far as I can tell.

all of those admin panels are generated with ajax type calls...  if they are getting blocked, could be an issue... but if the page loads, but not the image, not likely that...

where do you have the plugins installed???  That path is blatantly wrong!

wp-content is not located under wp-admin...

so you have simple-press installed in wp-content/plugins  and then have all the sp plugins installed in wp-content/sp-resources/forum-plugins?

also how did you get the sp plugins on your server?  ftp or the plugin uploader in sp?  if the later, we realized this morning that wp is dorking up the directory it creates for each plugin (and theme) so we changed the names of the archives to make wp happy... 

so assuming you have the sp plugins in wp-content/sp-resources/forum-plugins what are the directories in there?  if they contain version numbers, thats wrong...  and you should either rename (we can help) or grab new ones from our downloads page so we can keep wp happy! 😉

Very interesting. That path is what I get when I "copy image URL" in the browser. But the true path is exactly as you give it. Looking in FTP shows the plugins exactly where they should be; I have not misuploaded the plugins to the WP plugins directory or anything like that. Indeed, the plugin update from within the Forum control panel went just fine this morning.

I don't recall how I originally uploaded the plugins. Probably via FTP.

So, it looks like something is rewriting the URLs incorrectly or else there's a relative URL that's not quite right.

PS: Everything in the forum-plugins folder appears as it should. No version numbers. Modified dates show they were modified by SP when I updated to 5.1.

It looks like the URL isn't changing in the address bar off the browser, so the relative URLs are off.

For example, if I go to Forums > Themes in the WP control panel, I get this URL:

http://beta.waywordradio.org/w.....themes.php

Then, if I go Forum > Plugins, the URL stays the same -- and the plugin green checkmark images don't load.

However, if I back out of those settings by going to any other WP control panel pane, then go to Forum > Plugins first, I get this URL:

http://beta.waywordradio.org/w.....lugins.php

And the images load fine. Then, if I go to Forum > Themes, the URL stay the same but now the theme preview images don't load.

so yeah... seems like something is blocking the ajax loading of stuff...  a bit confused as to how some of the content might load but not the images...  quite strange...

dont worry about the url not changing... when you change admin panels via the accordion, ie with ajax, the url does not get updates, but new content is loaded in the admin area...  we have high hopes of being able to update the url in 5.2, but is a tough problem and the correct manipulation of the DOM (or other) has eluded us thus far...

but the key point is that in none of the last couple posts did we see a wp-content under wp admin...  which is good... 

so when the image shows, what do you get for a url to it? compared to when it does not?  and the images are not loaded via relative paths, they use full urls...

I assume you have done at least one browser cache clear since the upgrade?
