On my heroku-hosted site, I have a Wordpress Blog. Every time I push to Heroku, my permalinks for the archives and categories are reset and those links are broken. Additionally, the settings for some of my plugins (WP Super Cache) are reset and that plugin is turned off. Although I can easily fix this by going to the Wordpress admin page and turning those settings back on, does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?
It's writing settings to the file system which is reset on each push/restart. The file system is temporary and should not be relied on.

I installed the plugin but I am unable to edit the settings of the plugin, I activate it. But the plugin is not showing on the menu bar and if I try to access the setting from the installed plugins page, the setting is still not showing. What to do?
Which plugin is it? first you should check if the plugin is compatible with the version of WordPress and the theme you are using.
in any case the reasons can be numerous.
Sometimes it happens that it is a server setting problem, especially the memory limit. Other times it can be a user permissions issue.
I hope you can help.
I've installed Woocommerce for Wordpress and have the following problem.
When a user goes into the page to edit billing address it logs the user out - refreshing the page or saving the new address takes you back into the login screen.
I have no idea how to debug or fix this.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
The best way to debug this is to
Change to one of the default WordPress themes. If you are not using a default WordPress theme, deactivate and activate one of the default ones (i.e. Twenty Twelve)
Deactivate any additional plugins (other than WooCommerce).
If it is working that means there's a conflict with either the theme or with one (or more) of the other plugins you are using.
First, re-activate the theme you were using and check. If the error continues, then probably the theme is creating the problem.
If it works fine with the theme, move to the plugins. Start activating one at the time and test. See which plugin is causing the problem.
I have developed a wordpress theme and have uploaded and chosen that at http://www.digitalmanager.pk/ The problem is, when I am logged in my wordpress acccount on this sight, it shows the correct theme i.e. the one that I have chosen. But as soon as I logout of my wordpress account, it shows the default 2014 theme. Below is the screenshot, when I am logged in:
And the other one you can check for yourself by visiting the site at http://www.digitalmanager.pk/
P.S. I have removed the cache and tested but nothing changed.
It may be due to WP Super Cache Plugin. Just deactivate the WP Super Cache plugin from the Installed Plugins. Then upload upload your theme again.
I've made a clean install of Wordpress on my server and added WooCommerce plugin. Now, some of the pages in the admin panel doesn't display correctly (Dashboard, Media, WooCommerce, etc.).
This is a clean install, only WooCommerce plugin is active.
Do you have any idea why this is happening?
Thanks
Ok so there is VERY little information to go on here so here is the general "Wordpress Broke" debugging guide.
Disable WooCommerce and see if Wordpress goes back to normal. If this is the case then you have to Reinstall WooCommerce. This is where http://docs.woothemes.com/document/known-conflicts would come in handy
If it is still broken without any plugins then you have to check your directory permissions, file structure, and URL Structure.
99% of the time chrome devtools will be your best friend for debuging these problems. It looks like you are not loading some of the core CSS files so lets look to see if you have a a 404, 403, or 500 error when chrome requests them.
Open up chrome and go to the Wordpress admin
Right click anywhere on the page and "Inspect Element"
Look for the red error icon on the right side (top/bottom) and click it to expend the console.
You will probably see the failed requests in there. Make sure the requests are for the correct urls, such as: http://yourdomain.com/wp-admin/load-styles.php or http://yourdomain.com/wp-includes/js/thickbox/thickbox.css
If that are valid URLs and you have verified that the files exist on the server then you have to check directory permissions: http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions
Best wishes, let me know how it goes
I have seen that problem quite a while right now. You can try adding a specialized theme that has WooCommerce support like BootFrame Core theme. Or any other themes supporting WooCommerce -> https://wordpress.org/themes/search/woocommerce/ . Once, I used a WooCommerce, installed the plugin before changing any theme and had to create a new DB because the one I made before got corrupted due to the theme not working with WooCommerce. It's just a rare case but it can happen.
I bought a theme for WordPress and when i try to edit the theme it would not change a thing.
i even deleted images and background from the theme and it somehow still shows up on the page like its being cached somewhere. I cleared my browsers cache and just to be sure i tried to visit the my website on a different computer and the same page shows up.
My question is does WordPress cache images somewhere automatically? if yes is there any way to flush it?
WP doesn't cache anything unless you have any caching plugins enabled. Try disabling all plugins and double checking that the files you deleted are really the ones that you're seeing in your browser.
Right click on any images to get their source then compare them with the path of the image on the server, are they the same?
