StudioPress support ticket submitted. Thanks, Christoph.

I just tried your link on FB and got a 404 in the FB preview.
I visited your link directly and everything displayed correctly.
I tried pasting another link from your site http://aquariumtidings.com/how-much-and-what-to-feed-aquarium-fish/ and the FB preview displayed correctly.
I tried a link from my own Genesis-powered site using the Sixteen Nine Pro theme and the preview came up correctly.

I suspect one of the following:

1. A plugin was recently activated that's interfering with the FB preview
2. There's something within the content of that specific page (maybe a shortcode that calls a new plugin or some code in the custom header/footer) that's causing FB to 404.

It'd be helpful if you posted some URLs that you're experiencing problems with so that others can test.

After experiencing problems with Genesis Latest Tweets, I gave up and started using Twitter's own Embedded Timelines in a Text widget.

UPDATE: Depending on when you downloaded Sixteen Nine, you may or may not experience this problem. Check the file date/time of style.css
8/7/2013 10:36AM - Simple Social Icons widget disappears upon resize down
8/26/2013 7:22PM - fixed

Anyone who downloaded Sixteen Nine in the first 19 days after its release on 8/7 will continue to experience this problem. And since the update was silently released and not assigned a new version number, users will not know that the problem was fixed.

Which brings up another point... whenever ANY change is made to a theme, no matter how small, the version should be incremented. And there should be a changelog to document those changes.

Personally, I use WampServer to test locally. I'm not sure what the differences/advantages are between WampServer and XAMPP and would be interested to hear opinions from others with more experience.

I included a link in my original support ticket. Still no response.

[brother7]

It's been 4 days since I submitted a support ticket about this. No response yet.
Advertised response time is 24-48 hours. Should I resubmit or wait longer?

[brother7]

Support ticket has been submitted. Stay tuned for updated status.

I like BBQ:Block Bad Queries by Jeff Starr. His website Perishable Press is a valuable resource, especially about .htaccess.

Searching for "Sixteen Nine", I found that at least one other person has this problem. Can anyone else confirm?

[brother7]

I have no personal experience using it but I was researching the same thing and came across Q and A FAQ and Knowledgebase for WordPress.

EXAMPLE: Genesis framework 1.9.0 was released yesterday, 1/7/2013. The next day, it was updated to 1.9.1. But the update wasn't announced anywhere as far as I can tell. I just checked the StudioPress Twitter account... no announcement. I checked the StudioPress blog... nothing. If the core framework is updated, doesn't that warrant an announcement?

 

[brother7]

I like to have the latest and greatest. If it's important enough for StudioPress to release it, then I want it.

With stealth, unannounced releases, it makes it hard for users like me.

Click the link in my original post.  Just above the article title "Plugins", there is a menu with 4 choices: Color Palettes, Genesis Tutorials, Web Graphics, WordPress Plugins.  Click "Genesis Tutorials" and you will get a 404 error.

[brother7]

Thanks! That did the trick.

BTW, I wish each theme could be discussed in its own sub-forum, like the old forum was organized.

[brother7]

I second this sentiment. I liked getting support from the Studiopress community, as well as the staff.
