So I’m trying to move a site to a new server and the tagdiv composer plugin instantly locks the site 100% if I enable it after the transfer. From the debug logging, it looks like the plugin is somehow finding absolute URLs (bad programming) in the database and trying to use them to find its files. I’ve tried the usual steps of installing the theme and plugins anew, but the issue persists. So I can only assume that somewhere in the database it’s storing absolute URLs to its plugin files (no idea why any programmer would ever do such a thing).
Can you please guide me to where in the database it’s storing these URLs? I need to update them to change the path to the proper /wp-content/plugins/td-composer folder and not to an old absolute URL that never should exist in a WP database.
It’s a large site/database, so searching the entire thing is cumbersome to say the least. I’m guessing it’s somewhere in the wp_postmeta???
Hi JaredP, our theme do not store the paths for plugins in database, those are set in the theme files. Maybe the problem is relate to the path, but it can be displayed from a plugin. Can you please provide some screenshots or a link where I can investigate the problem. Maybe this is an worning displayed because the debug is set on true, also it can be related to php version (if this one is different then the one from old website).
Thank you!
Fyi, the DUPLICATOR plugin is useful for moving a website as you can set it to fix old URLs in dbase to the new one. (e.g., moving from muppetcandy.ooo to mupppetcandies.uuu)
