All right, this is just annoying and frustrating... as every other site I try it on, it works just fine. But on this one - no go. Here's the problem - you notice the navigation menu - you see the top level pages, and categories listed underneath. Flip over to amember and navigation menu is totally different, if not non-existent. And all I did was integrate the wordpress section into the config.inc.php via: define('WP_USE_THEMES', false); require("/home/users/whatever/wp-blog-header.php"); and header template via: {php}get_header(){/php} (as you normally would...) What in the world could be causing this? I've seriously tried everything - reinstalling amember... moving/reinstalling wordpress... god knows what else... and now, 4 hours later I still don't have a solution. And this literally works on all other sites I've had it implemented on... which is the most annoying thing! Anyone experienced this before? Or any suggestions where to go with this, what to try?
If I had to guess, a permissions issue with the aMember dB user not having access to the WP database to retrieve the categories.
it should display for non-logged in users as much as for logged in users, but it doesn't work for either... so I don't think that's it. I cleaned out the "template_c" folder, as I assumed that might have been the case too... no luck. yes.
Everyone's out of ideas, eh? And it's a simple wp_list_categories() function that works just fine in wordpress, but no go in amember side... and only on this specific site for some reason.
aahhhhh! fack! that's what it was - they were installed in separate DBs... I just moved the wordpress tables into the amember database and voila - it all works. jesus... that was it?!! thanks skippy - you're a life saver!
