Unable to upgrade NewsLetter Plugin

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 16

I just upgraded from Newspaper 9.1 to 9.6 and the NewsLetter plugin was corrupted and had to be deactivated. The new NewsLetter plugin in 9.6 cannot be installed and activated and gives the following error message.

“Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page”

I have disabled and reset the Newspaper license code but it still won’t allow me to install the NewsLetter plugin. It was working great in 9.1. The other 9.6 plugins work fine.

Thoughts?
Thx,
Gary

Hi,

You need to remove that plugin and install it again from here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/jIKy0OXYAL1

Catalin,

This is precisely where I went to install the plugins in the new 9.6 version. As I said above, when I attempt to install the plugin from this location (from within “Admin>Newspaper>plugins”) it returns the following message.

“Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page”

Why would I not have permission to load a plugin? How do I get it to recognize me as a paid user? I have disabled then reset the Newspaper key. Other features of the theme upgraded to 9.6 just fine.

Thx,
Gary

Hi,

That would be a common issue with wordpress, it can appear in various situations. For example here are some similar topics

You could check these out, maybe try what is suggested. Or install the plugin manually, not from the theme plugins panel, here is a guide

The newsletter plugin is provided in the theme package, plugins folder
