Spam Karma Blank Page Problem
I faced a strange problem with the Spam Karma plugin for WordPress: It showed a blank page when invoking the setup. Dave, who did the plugin, sended me a debug version, and I managed to trace the problem down. Since Dave seems to be on holidays and some people already mailed me for the solution, I publish it here:
It is quite simple.
- Open wp-content/wp-plugins/spam-karma.php in a text editor
- In the 5. line - starting with “Description: ” - move quite to the end and replace wp-content/plugins/spam-karma.php?spamk_setup with wp-content/plugins/spam-karma.php?spamk_setup=1 twice (both as the href argument and between the <a>-tags).
That’s it, as far as I see :-)
The reason is that the parameter spank_setup, which invokes the setup, isn’t recognized by older PHP versions if it has no value assigned.
If you have version 1.14 alpha 5 of SK (most recent, I think), this is already replaced once, but not within the href-parameter. Looks like Dave found the solution faster then I did...
Update: The issue is fixed in version 1.14 alpha 6, which was uploaded today. You can get it here.
