Error after migrating WP

By Larissa Castanheira, 5 years ago. Last reply by Alex S, 5 years ago.

Hi, after WP migration I had to reinstall wall of it, and restore .htaccess

So, almost everything is working fine, except the accordions in this page:

http://www.gabrielaassmar.com.br/sobre/
When I access the admin, I can see the accordion there, on page builder, but can’t edit it. There’s this message:

“The class ‘SiteOrigin_Widget_Field_Text’ could not be found. Please make sure you specified the correct field type and that the class exists.”

How can I fix it? It’s a lot of text, and the reviews of the content were only at WP. I have a backup of the content (XML file), does it help? If I upload it, other content will be affected?

Please, almost 5h doing this migration, can’t stand anymore.

    Hi Larissa,

    The provided error suggests the SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle plugin files are incomplete. Please navigate to WP AdminPluginsInstalled Plugins and deactivate and then delete SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle. Click Add New and search for and install the SiteOrigin Widgets Bundle.

    Thank you, Alex, now I can access the widgets and edit them. But, look this form:

    http://www.gabrielaassmar.com.br/contato/

    I already edited it again, but it still with a messy layout. What can I do?

    And also the accordion still doesn’t work. I cleaned the cache, set up another accordion (with the same information), and when I open the page, it’s not working.

    So weird..

    I have a backup from UpdraftPlus. Is that helpful for this issue?

    Hi Larissa,

    Preface: If you need help with doing this, I would reach out to your hosting provider for assistance with this.

    Thank you for the links. Those widgets are displaying incorrectly due to missing widget CSS which is normally generated on load and stored. This issue is likely caused by incorrect permissions of the siteorigin-widgets css directory. Please FTP into your website and navigate to WordPress directory. Go to wp-content/uploads and ensure siteorigin-widgets is set to 0750 and the contents of the files are set to 0640. If there are no files present, that’s okay!

    Once you’ve adjusted the directory permissions please view one of the pages you linked too and clear any cache plugins. Does that help?

  7. 5 years, 8 months ago Larissa Castanheira

    Ok… the folder had 755 permission, so I changed to 750, but there was no files inside. Is that normal?

    So I after this changing, I tryied to put the contact form back, and still with error… I can edit on page builder, but the form is messed on page, not responding to the design config I set.

    I set up a test page for the form: http://www.gabrielaassmar.com.br/form-test/

    I send an e-mail, and nothing… before the migration it was working fine. Your plugin is the best! I already tried another, but none of them is good enough.

    Hoping can fix this. Already re-installed the WP… and also uploaded the plugins files directly from http://ftp...

    UPDATE: I got the test mail, it was in spam trash. So there’s just two things to adjust:

    – design of the form

    – how the mail arrive on main box (or at least on promotion or updates box) and not in spam.

    Hi Larissa,

    Thanks. Can you please check the permissions of wp-uploads directory. I ask as another plugin you have installed (useanyfont) is having issues storing its stylesheet. Does everything work when you navigate to WP AdminMedia?

    – how the mail arrive on main box (or at least on promotion or updates box) and not in spam.

    I would reach out to your hosting provider about this. You’ll likely need to set up SMTP mail rather than relying on your hosting provider’s mail server as it’s possible they may have been blacklisted due to spam – this is quite common with things like DigitalOcean.

    Thank you, Alex.

    wp-uploads – 755 (i’m afrid to change and than have errors in another things that is already working)

    useanyfont – it’s working fine, I set up only one font, that is needed.

    wp-admin –> media – the navigation is fine too. the url is “wp-admin/upload.php” and opens my library.

    About the mail box, I was doing some research, and have to relate this to GoDaddy, but thanks!

    So about the layout of the form, using widgets, is there any CSS that I can set up to test? Any class maybe?

    I really want to understand what is happening, and never do the same mistake again!

    I always use vantage theme with your native plugins.

    Hi Larissa,

    useanyfont – it’s working fine, I set up only one font, that is needed.

    That’s odd. It’s reporting an error for me:

    Can you please try changing one of the Contact Design settings in the Contact Form on the linked page?

  12. 5 years, 8 months ago Larissa Castanheira

    But I’m not using the “site” directory anymore, I moved the WP to the root… If you type this adress with the “woff” file, it will start a download.

    Whats is really odd… I moved WP from the “site” directory to root… and then deleted all “site” folder.

    But it keeps showing up, and I deleted it several times, it returns, and now exactly with the path “wp-content/uploads/siteorigin-widgets” and the files is

    – sow-button-flat-52cac46ddfee.css

    – sow-button-wire-01ac1ee7eb74.css

    – sow-button-wire-c773971cba49.css

    – sow-contact-form-default-812cdfdcf4d4.css

    – sow-image-default-31c423e8ff7c.css

    – sow-image-default-fae83571bfaa.css

    Should I copy these files to folder in root directory?

    Hi, I Work Here

    Hi Larissa,

    Your website still thinks it’s meant to be in the site directory. Please navigate to WP Admin > Settings > General and ensure there are no references to the site directory.

  14. 5 years, 8 months ago Larissa Castanheira

    Alex, I verified, but there’s no reference.

    I’ll try uninstalling some other plugins. Maybe another one is making this conflict.

    Hi Larissa,

    Hm. Do you have a custom UPLOADS configuration value in your wp-config.php?

    No, I always leave it by deault…

    Its better to copy wp-config here (hiding some key information)

    Is there anything missing? Or wrong?

    Hi Larissa,

    Thanks. Can you please clarify the path of that file? Is the WordPress index.php in the same path?

    We’re not too sure why this is happening, I would consider reaching out to WordPress directly about this issue as they’ll likely know why your website is still (internally) referencing your old path.
