Re: [1.5] Arras 1.5.0.1 and WordPress 3.2

It is stated that upgrading the WordPress to 3.2 causes the Arras 1.5.0.1 to have problems.
What about the Arras 1.4.3?
I have not updated my Arras theme for sometime and still has 1.4.3.
I haven't updated the WordPress to 3.2 yet either.

Would 1.4.3. also have problems updating the WordPress to 3.2?
Should I follow the instruction for 1.5.0.1 as well?

Thank you.

Re: [1.5] Arras 1.5.0.1 and WordPress 3.2

If 1.5.0.1 has problems with WP 3.2, it is likely that 1.4.3 will have problems as the code is dated older than that of 1.5.0.1. I'm currently running WP 3.2 with 1.5.0.1, but I've manually made the updates available in the latest version of Arras. I did this over a period of time therefore I cannot advise you on how to make the update safely.

I plan on upgrading everything to WP 3.2.1 and Arras 1.5.1.2 (The latest versions available) at some point in the near future, as both run the latest updated scripts with latest security fixes.

I advise everyone to do the same. The safest way to check for updates is by running a staging or development environment on a sub-domain or in a sub-folder of your domain that is an exact replica of your current public website. (As always everyone should have a safe backup of all their files and databases before making the update.)

Re: [1.5] Arras 1.5.0.1 and WordPress 3.2

Hey guys, 2 questions:

1. I am under the impression to NEVER change the code in the original theme, so should I copy widgets.php and throw it in my child theme and edit it from there? This is what i'm thinking i need to do...

2. Since I am using a child theme, if i want to update the actual arras theme to 1.5.1, as people are saying this will work too, Im thinking i need to activate my arras theme, then upgrade it, then reactivate my child theme.

Both of these make me a bit nervous being that i never know how wordpress is gonna react and when its gonna feel like just locking me out of my dashboard! If anybody has any advice to offer I'd really appreciate it. Oh, and yea, im asking cuz i also made the WP update and got the same error line 404 blabh blah blah! Just reverted for now.

Thanks-

Re: [1.5] Arras 1.5.0.1 and WordPress 3.2

1. This is probably the best idea for updating the theme outside of the user.css file.

2. Typically you won't have to do anything with regards to activating and reactivating themes. When you upgrade the Arras theme it only updates Arras files which the child theme simply refers to.

I do it, and recommend to others that you run a development site (exact replica) of your original site, either on a sub-domain or locally, and test ALL updates (plugins/wp versions/arras versions) and code changes the development site before pushing them live on your public site.

Assuming your talking about the widget error it's really quite easy to fix through a file manager (through your host) or via FTP. Please see http://www.arrastheme.com/forums/topic6 … ss-32.html

Re: [1.5] Arras 1.5.0.1 and WordPress 3.2

Here is a link to the source files. Simply overwrite them through the file manager or ftp.

Temporarily rename your plugins folder (using ftp or your web host file manager) to xplugins and report back.

Re: [1.5] Arras 1.5.0.1 and WordPress 3.2

I'm also have this issue (Fatal error: Class 'WP_Widget' not found in /home/period/public_html/wp-content/themes/arras/library/widgets.php on line 7) and I'm aware that I need to change the code. However I can't access my library through the wp-admin panel as it comes up with this message, equally with any url suffix (eg. /wp-content/themes/arras/library/widgets.php). I have access to cPanel, where is the best place to change the code?

Re: [1.5] Arras 1.5.0.1 and WordPress 3.2

I tried an auto download of a program to wordpress that is set up to work with 1.5.1 for a website that uses an ARRAS theme. Needless to say, wordpress defaults to version 3.2 so the download does not work. Does anyone know if wordpress is addressing this issue ?
