While using the well-known DBmanager plugin ( https://fr.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-dbmanager/ ) with Newspaper installed recently i had today a big problem. After simply using the optimize function, all posts and pages disappeared in my website (including in the admin interface). The menus too. I think nothing was “deleted” by the optimization (the size of the tables seemed the same, a bit lighter as they were cleaned), just WordPress was not finding / displaying them anymore. The admin interface of WordPress was still working normally.
Anyways, I had to use a backup to get everything back to normal.
With the previous theme i was using this plugin was working perfectly.
So, is there some incompatibility with this plugin ? Anybody else used it before with Newspaper ? I’m not sure exactly what happened, maybe this strange problem is not related to Newspaper.
What other database managing plugin could you recommend me (to avoid having to use PHPmyadmin) ?
Hello,
Unfortunately I cannot say for sure. We only tested these plugins: https://www.screencast.com/t/BqeaFBaM Any plugin that is not on this list falls beyond the theme support and we cannot say if it will work or not. Unfortunately not all plugins are compatible with premium themes. If a plugin works with one theme it does not mean it will work with another. Plugins are created on the WordPress default code while the theme code is custom.
The plugins we mark as tested and recommended are kept compatible on each update by making the proper adjustments in the theme on each update to maintain this compatibility. Unfortunately we cannot do this for a large number of plugins.
Thank you!
Hello
Thanks. I’ve seen this list. I fully understand that you can’t test everything, especially every plugins. And that Newspaper use custom code.
I’ll search for another similar plugin.
