Just upgraded to 5.0/ WP 3.3 -- When the Widgets plugin is active, my posts and pages have no content. When I look at the HTML code in the browser, I see <!-- article-content --> where I should see my article.

I disabled all SP plugins and activated them one by one...my site only works correctly when the Widgets plugin is deactivated.

I use Artisteer to write my own themes...I really hope it isn't a theme issue.

well, we certainly arent putting that article content in there... but that said, we had one other user report the same problem, but we have not been able to track it down since we cannot duplicate ourselves...  working it...

can you go to forum - integration - page and permalink and see if the multiple display and display in loop options have any effect?

Both settings had no effect...I need 'display in loop' ON or the forum appears before by page, not on it.

I had 'allow multiple' turned off, and turning it on had no effect on anything.

I deactivated the widget plugin to get my site back to normal.

Also, the <!– article-content –> is there when the site is working properly, right before the content.

 

UPDATE -- I tried disabling all WordPress plugins...only SimplePress plugin active...problem still exists.

I also tried (while WP plugins off) deactivating all other SP plugins...problem still exists.

There appears to be an incompatibility with my theme/config somewhere.  Any ideas on what to look for?

Not sure you saw this...since I edited it at about the time you replied.

you can try the default wp theme temporarily to see if it is the theme... would be another data point...

Andy has been working this issue and will be back in AM to work it some more I believe...

at some point, if we still cannot duplicate, would it be possible to get some access to your site and see it happening and be able to upload some debug code? account to site to post and potentially ftp access to upload the debug code would be best... certainly understand if thats not doable... if it is, you might pm yellow swordfish and mr papa the credentials...

Here's another data point...

I set up SP5 on a demo site that I upgraded to WP3.3...The article content disappears when the Recent Forum Posts widget is added to the page.  The SP widget plugin can remain enabled.  Content does not disappear until the recent posts widget is used.

I have set up access for you on this demo site...I will PM the info.

I forgot to mention above that the Twenty Eleven theme works properly...so it's most likely an incompatibility with themes generated by Artisteer.  The demo site is also an Artisteer-generated theme.

If you need info about Artisteer, their site is http://www.artisteer.com/

I can't speak for Steve but I suspect the only way this can really be debugged properly is if I can have a full working copy of the theme so I can install locally and put it through it's paces. And that has to be up to you. It seems ironic that probably 90% of the themes we have problems with are commercial. I will answer the PM as well.

Just wanted to let you know that I am looking at this theme code. Actually been looking for over 2 hour now. It is just about the most convoluted and long winded theme code I have ever seen 🙂

I can solve the problem i think - well I have in a way - but haven't yet managed to ascertain why there is a problem in the first place which is more important.
