Have you completely disabled all the third party plugins before rechecking? Make sure you run the upgrade.php script too. It will flush the file view and css cache.
If you find out that its issue with a core plugin, post it here so that how we can replicate it. Once some body else can replicate it, you can confirm it as a core bug and you can report it to the http://trac.elgg.org . But we dont think it as core bug as the error is not happening in our install.
Have you tried what happens if you completely replace the embed plugin folder in mods with the original date taken from the Elgg 1.8.1 archive (or whatever version you use currently)? Maybe something went wrong when you uploaded the files the first time and some incomplete file leads to the error. I would suggest to disable the embed plugin / delete the /mod/embed folder on your server / re-uploading it / enable the plugin.
Yes, will do to both TW and Iionly, thanks again for the feedback!
Cash: I was thinking (This is for 8th graders...) that it would seem more straightforward to do it this way, however, last night I was toying with it and did exactly as you said... that does seem to be MORE straightforward and simplistic <-- always a good thing when dealing with adolescents!
Iionly: I think flipping the system and uploading the file and THEN commenting on the specific file instead of vice versa works better (for my needs at least) and uses one less plugin anyways - BUT THANK YOU!
So, here is another question related to the above... and I think I may know the answer already but is there a way to DISABLE / REMOVE the "ADD BLOG POST" for all users but admin?
Is there a way to do this from a plugin or actual code modification if not through the admin tools?
Thanks,
