Media upload error in wordpress after installation of customized plugin

Media upload error in wordpress after installation of customized plugin
 
After installation of custom plugin in wordpress sometimes error occurs while media upload.

The reason is you have may be you have included '$' in js of plugin(replace $ with jQuery)  or might be you have added js in plugin_name.php file. 

      

To correct the error include your js of plugin in separate js file and put this file in plugin_name folder with plugin_name.php file.

And to use this js in plugin add the below function in plugin file.

function my_scripts_method() {
    wp_enqueue_script(
        'plugin_name',
        plugins_url() . '/plugin_name/plugin_name.js',
        array( 'jquery' )
    );
}

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_scripts_method' );



Hope this will solve your problem :)

GoDaddy, cURL, HTTP, and 403 Errors

I was recently coding PHP cURL functionality for a GoDaddy-hosted website and I kept running into an annoying 403 error. Essentially, GoDaddy’s proxy server (which they force you to use for cURL) was giving me a “Forbidden” error and wasn’t trying to hit the necessary server. Here’s the code that GoDaddy tells you to use for cURL transactions:

$URL='https://www.paypal.com';

$ch = curl_init();

echo 'URL = $URL <br>n';

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL, TRUE);

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE, CURLPROXY_HTTP);

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY,'http://proxy.shr.secureserver.net:3128');

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $URL);

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 120);

$result = curl_exec ($ch);

echo '<hr><br>n';

echo 'Errors: ' . curl_errno($ch) . ' ' . curl_error($ch) . '<br><br>';

echo '<hr><br>n';

curl_close ($ch);

print 'result - $result';

echo '<hr><br>n';

The problem is that since I’m not using SSL in this instance, I don’t need to use the following cURL option:

curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_HTTPPROXYTUNNEL, true);

Remember that if you receive this error from GoDaddy’s server. Hopefully I save someone a bunch of time with this
