Topic: new update crashed my sites
I have 3 websites and after the newest plugin update, the entire buddypress system crashed. All pages buddypress related give a fatal error screen. Activity, members page, profile, etc. I reverted back to the old version and it works fine again. I thought it was a plugin conflict but it is happening on multiple sites even fresh ones.
ThanksWordpress version: 6.4.2
Buddypress version with fatal error: 12.0.0
Buddypress version that works fine: 11.4.0Hey,
there seems to be something not working properly, independent from the theme I am using and with having no plugins activated at all:
When I enter my First and Last Name in the usual User -> Profile Dashboard from WordPress, ervything is fine. Let’s assume I choose a Nickname as well:
First Name: Tom
Last Name: Train
Nickname: TommyIn the Public Name dropdown, I choose ‘Tommy’.
Save it.Now I already have created some additional profile fields, like the gender.
If I change my data there now, from option 1 to option 2, and I save it, and I go back to the first “Profile” tab within the WordPress Dashboard, all my name declarations are gone, except Tommy.Is this a known problem for someone?
@sbanner26, my apologies for not posting this sooner, I was contemplating various scenarios based on the limited information provided and not having access to the BP Member Export Import plugin (it doesn’t reside in the official WordPress plugin repository). That stated, let’s see what you think about the proposed:
This solution is an attempt to mitigate risk for updating a user’s registration date by utilizing a WP plugin known as Edit Registration Date. This plugin adds an editable text box to each user’s profile page, as can be seen in the following screenshot:
This plugin is located in the WP plugin repository at the following URL:
The author of this plugin has only tested up to WP 6.2.3; meaning, I’m not sure why the author hasn’t tested, as of yet, to the current version of WP. As an aside, I tested it with WP 6.4.1 and it works as advertised. The plan would be to install stated plugin on both sites, perform a copy & paste and then update profile for each user. After completion, you can discard this plugin,, if you choose to do so. Albeit, this is a manual effort but, to reiterate, it presents the least amount of risk for updating a user’s registration date.
Having stated the previous, this now brings up the subject as to where the fault lies with the BP Member Export Import plugin by Wbcom Designs, if any. Was it a setting that needed to be set, i.e., use original registration date or make the dates all the same? Or, is it an actual bug? If it is a bug then, this bug should be reported, as such, to Wbcom Designs by someone who has actually witnessed this anomaly.
Furthermore, you may be able to determine in which process the fault, if any, may exist since there is, apparently, a 2 (two) step process, e.g., export and import: meaning, if you import the CSV file into a spreadsheet (MS Excel, OpenOffice/LibreOffice Calc or Google Sheets) the column that represents “registration_date” (the actual DB column name is “user_registered”) will indicate whether the dates are correct or not. If the dates are correct then the export process is not at fault and if the dates are not correct, you can infer that a fault may exist with the “export” process.
If by chance and assuming the dates are incorrect as indicated by the spreadsheet, the dates can be manually corrected in the spreadsheet and then save/export the corrections as a CSV file then, utilize the import feature of BP Member Export Import plugin. Note: The video for this plugin shows that there is a checkbox “Enable checkbox to update existing users data” thus, you should enable the checkbox since you have existing users.
Last but not least, there are other solutions that are applicable but, I’m not sure they are worth the effort (that is, my effort) to convey at a practical level given that your situation isn’t one that occurs on a regular basis, at least I would hope not, however, if this proposed solution is not practical, I may reconsider my position on this. Additionally, if this is truly a fault that lies with the BP Member Export Import plugin by Wbcom Designs then, reporting this fault to the developers of stated plugin would allow them to fix this fault and then you could use the new version to repeat the export/import process but this time it would work, given that no new bugs/faults were introduced.
