In reply to: Error: Are you sure you wanted to do that?
@lmstearn: Thanks for that info on the php code.
Here’s some info I found previously on this error (but you probably already knew this).
The ‘Are you sure you want to do this? ‘ error usually appears when nonce verification fails, and the most likely candidates for causing this error are plugins and themes not using this feature properly. Nonces are unique keys that add a security layer to protect WordPress URLs, forms, and Ajax calls from abuse.

In reply to: Error: Are you sure you wanted to do that?@Imsteam I’m still getting these occasionally when I reply to a topic. I’ve gotten in the habit of saving my reply in notepad, especially if it’s a long one. Sometimes I can fix it by clearing the cache for that page (I use WP-Rocket). The solution you found looks interesting but it’s for a local install. I wonder what the change would be for a hosted site.
In reply to: Error: Are you sure you wanted to do that?the error is when the ‘nonce’ does not validate.
I suppose I could try using translation to make it a friendly message but would rather try and fix it.
function my_nonce_message ($translation) { if ($translation === 'Are you sure you want to do this?') { return 'Please try again.'; } return $translation; } add_filter('gettext', 'my_nonce_message');I’m on WP Engine, maybe something on their end. It had been working in the past though. Glad to know I have a workaround.
Thanks again.
Ah, good one. Missed trying on the front end and that works on the live site with current theme and all plugins.
Thank you Robin!
Yep, did all of that. Deactivated all plugins and changed to Twenty Twenty theme. Still the same problem.
Never mind, seems to have corrected itself. Must have been some sort of caching issue.
In reply to: Security Advisory: Stored XSS in bbPressThanks, wasn’t sure if that Sucuri notification was for 2.5.9 or a previous version.
Finally solved my issue by “beating on it”! Thought I would share my answer in hopes others might benefit.
To recap I was getting a 404 Error (Page not found) when trying to access “All Replies” from the admin screen.
I set up a test site, transferred a backup of the site using VaultPress, which made it particularly easy, but any method will work. also made sure I updated the URLs on the test site.
After disabling the plugins I was still getting the problem but could see enough of the “All Replies” page (could not with plugins enabled) to notice that there was 1 item in “draft” and “trash” each. I could not access them from the munged up “All Replies” page I was looking at. I then logged into my cPanel and phpMyAdmin and went to the wp_posts table. Using “Search” I first searched for post_status = draft, post_type = reply I then deleted that record. I next did the same for post_status = trash, post_type = reply.
Problem Solved!
Hope this helps someone else.
Thanks Robkk, tried a number of these but no luck. All was working fine until a couple of days ago when a table for a plugin got corrupted. That was restored and everything is working well. It’s an active site so tough to do too much on it. I’ll keep beating on it! 🙂
In reply to: bbPress 2.3 now available!“I can confirm @aburi‘s solution for getting the Admin menus back. I went to Settings/Forums, ticked the check box for Auto Role, saved. The menus were back.”
Yep, me too.
Thanks!
In reply to: bbPress 2.3 now available!Having problems.
Lost admin panel widget for “Forums, Topics and Replies”. Getting this cryptic message error “Cheatin’ uh?”. When trying to access Forums, Topics or Replies through “Right Now In Forums”.
Where can I get 2.24 version?
Same here. Displays in Safari (PC), IE and Chrome but not in Firefox (19.0.2)
Using Swift theme.
Update per John: Only an issue with Firefox. Reverted back to original for now though nothing appeared to be broken.
Okay discovered the problem. On line 815 of the .css file change “clear: none;” to “clear: both;”. No quotes of course. Hopefully that will not break anything!
Thanks to labsecrets on the earlier tip about line 78. Led me in the right direction.
Anyone?
Page source shows the content is there but it’s not being displayed, only a blank page.
In reply to: Legacy versionsAhh, thank you!
