Fixing a bug I’m not sure how I got.

I’m not sure what happened, but after I installed the “Currently Reading” plugin for Wordpress, I get this

“Warning: preg_match() [function.preg-match]: Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at offset 1 in [...]”

error on lines 104-105 of wp-includes/classes.php file. I deactivated the plugin (which was a complete mess on this layout anyway) and proceeded to delete the whole folder thinking it’ll fix the problem. It didn’t. Good thing I found a way: I checked the file and added “@” in front of preg_match.

So these lines:

104       if (preg_match("!^$match!", $request_match, $matches) ||
105           preg_match("!^$match!", urldecode($request_match), $matches)) {

are now:

104       if (@preg_match("!^$match!", $request_match, $matches) ||
105           @preg_match("!^$match!", urldecode($request_match), $matches)) {

problem fixed!

… BUT I STILL HAVE OTHER ISSUES on the site that won’t go away. WHAT THE HELL!

UPDATE!

Alright!! I finally fixed it by updating the permalinks.

TriScents Home Makeover contest

I came across this contest that is being run by Renuzit TriScents. It is for a fabulous home make-over that is worth a whopping twenty thousand dollars ($20,000)! Who wouldn’t want to win that when it is super easy to join?! Basically, all you need to do is to shoot a short video and write an accompanying essay that will creatively show and explain why you deserve to win a home makeover. The video has a 2 minute length limit and the essay should at least be 250 words long. If you are interested, you should see official rules for the contest.

If you aren’t familiar of Renuzit TriScents, you can visit their website and there’s a coupon that you can download and print. It’s for the Renuzit TriScents Starter Kit which you can find at your local stores. The starter kit includes a reusable plug-in warmer and a refill unit. You can get refills for $4.99 and they last up to 60 days.

Woulnd’t it be amazing to have a home makeover? Also, it’s with Tanya Memme who hosts the Emmy nominated show Sell This House, so I’m sure you’ll have good advice and help throughout the process.  So… what are you waiting for? Bust out that camera and pen and enter to win this amazing opportunity!
