Comment (by aubreypwd):

 I can confirm that the below solution worked for me in using:


 {{{
 define('WP_PLUGIN_DIR',
 realpath('/home/152858/domains/example.com/html/all/wp-content/plugins')
 );
 define('WP_PLUGIN_URL', 'http://example.com/all/wp-content/plugins');
 define('WP_THEMES_DIR',
 realpath('/home/152858/domains/example.com/html/all/wp-content/themes') );
 define('WP_THEMES_URL', 'http://example.com/all/wp-content/themes');
 define('WP_CONTENT_DIR',
 realpath('/home/152858/domains/example.com/html/all/wp-content') );
 define('WP_CONTENT_URL', 'http://example.com/all/wp-content');
 }}}

 > I resolved all my plugin problems caused by symlinks in the wp-content
 path by using the realpath() function in my wp-config.php. I simply
 replace this:
 > {{{
 > define('WP_CONTENT_DIR',$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/wp-content');
 > }}}
 > With this:
 > {{{
 > define('WP_CONTENT_DIR', realpath($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/wp-
 content'));
 > }}}
 > Thought that might help anyone ending up in this ticket when
 troubleshooting.
