[Uncached] Snippets not rendering

I just reinstalled and updated to Revo 2.2.6 and nothing. The upgrade/re-install didn't work. What is confusing to be is that the latest posts widget works, but not the blog container. It's rendering the getPage code from Articles as if it were pasted in as the actual page content. Plus, my forms are not working either. I have one in the footer and another in a specific contact page that just renders the FormIt code as well.

This is very perplexing. Any ideas and I would be very grateful. Thanks for the responses so far. I really hope it turns out to be something stupid that I did wrong... Usually is.

When you say the upgrade install didn't work, do you mean that you got error messages in red during Setup (if so, what messages) or that Setup didn't finish, or just that the site doesn't work after the upgrade?

Everything works still, but it didn't change the snippet issue. It's still rendering the same way, in spite of the install working fine.
EDIT: I should clarify... The install went fine, no errors. The site still pretty much works except that those snippets are still being rendered as text on the front end.

Things suddenly changing does sound like something got changed on the server by the hosting people. Some kind of weird security setting? I would ask the hosting tech support if they made any changes, any changes at all, at that time.

Also try a full backup, and then install the backup on another server (localhost, maybe) and see what happens.

I played with the site a little and it's only the uncached tags that are doing this. It's as if MODX is delivering the cached version of the page without processing the uncached tags in it. I suspect CloudFlare.

Ha! I don't know if it's going to work, but my client logged into their hosting and enabled Cloudflare. How annoying is that? Very, let me tell you. Hopefully that does the trick. I just disabled it. I'll report back.

Well, I disabled Cloudflare with no change. The snippets are still rendered unparsed in the page. I though for sure that was it. When I got on the phone with the client and he mentioned the Cloudflare thing I thought, "Wow! That was easy!" But, to no avail. Cached snippet calls work, but uncached don't work. What in the world is going on here?

Thanks for all the help so far.

Have you cleared and deleted all the caches? You might need to clear your browser cache and cookies for the domain as well, although I don't know how "cloudflare" works.

Yes. I cleared EVERYTHING, both locally and on the server. No dice. I guess the Cloudflare solution had no effect on the site. It almost seemed too easy to be a fix.

I guess after all this it comes down to BobRay's comment that it's the cached snippets that are being treated correctly and uncached snippets aren't. Any takers?

I've cleared caches, flushed permissions, reinstalled, turned off CloudFlare, and looked through log files.

Any takers?
