[SOLVED] In WP MultiSite all icons are missing

[moderater note] see post #7

On my WP MultiSite setup all the Montezuma Theme icons are missing. That is there are no icons on my two websites (multilanguage) that I am trying to create using WP MultiSite. My Montezuma test setup that I run locally on a VMWare Player using TurnKey WordPress has no problem.

I just updated everything to WP 3.5 but I am not sure if the icons went missing when I did that or if they were already missing. :confused:

Is there some known MultiSite problem that I should be aware of or did this happen with the update?

There does seem to be a problem. I've let the develper know about this.

@helga:
I had the same issue using the multisite setup, but seem to have found a temporary workaround using the single-site setup version of the Montezuma theme (which, as you suggest, performed the dual-color span tag input correctly). I'm no 'code poet' or anything, but here's what I did:

I backed up then replaced wp-content/themes/montezuma/admin/default-templates/javascript/javascript.js, and the default CSS file wp-content/themes/montezuma/admin/default-templates/css/grids/resp12-px-m0px.css with the code from style.css and javascript.js found in the single-installation wp-content/uploads/montezuma folder.

For me, it appeared to involve being able to write a montezuma theme folder to wp-content/uploads/ - despite already having the necessary permission to do so. See, e.g., starting at line 22 of wp-content/themes/montezuma/functions.php, which looks something like this:

Code:

21        /*************************************************************************

22        Default CSS served INLINE because wp-content/uploads is not writable.

23        This will change once wp-content/uploads is writable

24        **************************************************************************/

25        ';

26                $bfa_css .= implode( '', file( get_template_directory() . "/admin/default-templates/css/grids/resp12-px-m0px.css" ) );

27                foreach ( glob( get_template_directory() . "/admin/default-templates/css/*.css") as $filename) {

28                        $bfa_css .= implode( '', file( $filename ) );

29                }

30                $bfa_css = str_replace( '%tpldir%', get_template_directory_uri(), $bfa_css );

31                $bfa_css = "\n<style type='text/css'>\n" . $bfa_css . "</style>\n";

32        }

And so, for whatever reason, since the theme is not able to write to wp-content/uploads, it uses the CSS and JS from admin/default-templates/. I wonder if it is the Montezuma theme lacking write permissions, or if it has something to do with setting site/theme permissions from the WP "Network Admin" backend?

In any case, hope this helps.

hi
I'm new here. I use also the theme MONTEZUMA (is wonderful) and Wordpress 3.5. When I changed my site to multisite, I have the same issue. Has anyone found a solution to this issue.

Thank you very much

Can you please share the code in the files you mentioned in uploads/montezuma? I have that directory, but its empty.

inkdork - that directory will only be empty if the process running wordpress does not have write access to the directory. You may need to change the file permission to '777'

I also had this problem (on WP 3.5.1), but solved it by:
Network Settings -> Upload Settings -> Upload file types: add "css js", making it read something like "jpg jpeg png gif mp3 mov avi wmv midi mid pdf css js"
Then forced generation of the CSS and JS files by simply changing one of the CSS files (e.g. various.css) in [My Site] -> Appearance -> Montezuma Options.
All the best!

Note: For this method to work, you must make changes in any of the css files as mentioned above. I am running a multilingual multisite and I wondered why it did not work for one of the sites. Then I realized that I had not made changes in any of the css files. In my case, it did not matter what changes and where I made them, so I think it can be any.
Thanks again!:)
