Hi I updated this plugin and my dashboard went blank!!! I do not know coding so I had to ask my IT person to fix it. what is causeing this problem? I only have 1 ad in it but I will have to delete it because of this. http://wordpress.org/plugins/ad-widget/ Same problem here after plugin update to 2.4.1 on WP 3.5.1. Had to delete the plugin via ftp to get access back. Tried rolling back to 2.3.1 to no avail. Error code is: Fatal error: Call to undefined function bs_editable_js() in /home/content/43/6675043/html/WP/wp-content/plugins/ad-widget/lib/Utility.php on line 275 OK, got it working again BY ROLLING BACK TO VERSION 2.1.6! Don’t have time to check right now, but I have a feeling that removing the plugin, then deleting all Ad Widget info from the database and reinstalling the new version AND rebuilding all your ads would fix the problem, as the file structure of the plugin has changed…… Hey everyone, this is such a simple plugin that it’s hard to imagine an update caused that much havoc. It think this might be a problem with WordPress updating, which I’ve seen with other plugins too.
