Simple Pages conflict?

Troubleshooting
1

Using Reclaim Hosting. Everything is working (and appears to be doing so beautifully) with one exception. I cannot activate the Simple Pages plug-in.

Thoughts?

2

No conflict. My best guess is that the pluginā€™s folder name is wrong (e.g. /plugins/SimplePages-master) and/or is incorrectly nested (e.g. /plugins/SimplePagesPlugin/SimplePages). Are you seeing an error?

There is a simple pages within the curatescape theme directory as well.

The /simple-pages directory in the theme is just a theme template that tweaks the container HTML to fit the themeā€™s layout. It wouldnā€™t prevent you from activating the plugin.

Sounds like this issue on the Omeka forum:

good catch. where might I find the table? in the database? any ideas?

In the database. Youā€™ll need to log in to your Reclaim account, go to CPanel and find PHPMyAdmin in order to alter database tables. If youā€™re not sure what to do when you get there, submit a support ticket to Reclaim. They should be able to help.

And, you win the award for incisive advice. I did a quick search and found it in PHPMyAdmin.

Somehow the install created an ā€œaboutā€ page that prevented the simple pages from working.

Good call. thank you.

I deleted only the offending ā€œaboutā€ page, not the entire tableā€¦ and that worked. I did not need to delete the table itself.
