Re: Troubleshooting: Moving a txp site for a dear old friend...

Hi and welcome to the Textpattern forums.

Looks like the cause of that error is the rss_auto_excerpt plugin. If you log into the back end of Textpattern and head to the Admin->Plugins panel you’ll be able to find the plugin there and disable it so it’s not Active. Although that won’t show you the excerpts any more on your site, at least it won’t throw ugly errors.

Then you have a few option: upgrade the plugin or implement a plugin-less solution. Both options are mentioned in this post (though you may have to upgrade Textpattern to v4.8.0 for the plugin-less solution to work, which is recommended after backing everything up).

As you deal with any fallout like this, you may find that other plugins or code doesn’t quite work any more. You can deal with any plugin errors in the same manner as above: temporarily disable them and then come back here to check if there are updates available or if there are workarounds available.

If you can’t find anything mentioned in the forum about a particular issue or plugin – some of those plugins on the site are pretty old and many are not required on more recent hosts and versions of Textpattern – then by all means post here and someone will endeavour to help you resolve it.
