Marked approved, but not showing in list

  • For some reason, new signups are not showing up on the non-admin lists. They show as “approved”, but are missing using the pdb_list function.

    If I edit the record (making no changes) and save it – then they appear in the list. I need all signups to show up in the list. I am not sure if this has to do with the “approved” field or not, but I have it set as a default to “yes”.

    I have to track down each new entry now, and count entries to see if any and how many are missing. There is no way for me to tell from the admin list which are omitted from the pdb_list.

    When you are filtering by the “group_and_team_assignment” field, it is assuming there will be the “1-unassigned” value in there, but that value won’t be in there until the record is saved in the backend.

    This is partly due to the way this version of the plugin works, but it’s probably desirable because if a spammer discovers you are publishing unmoderated content, you will be flooded.

    Yeah, I thought about the spammer issue – this is another reason I protected the pages, only registered users can see these pages.

    So, sounds like there is no way around this approval process? I’m still having to open each record and saving it before they show up in the lists. Can you tell me why these people (those who I do not open their record and save) show up in the complete list – and do not when I put any filter on it?

    Right now I have to go in and count them all and compare it to the filtered list to see if any are missing, and if so, hunt it down.

    Is there is no easy solution here? If so I can live with it – there is certainly plenty of value here to put up with a few things like this.

    Thank you!

    If there is no filter, all records will show in the list. The shortcode filter is the only place where the “approved” feature is enabled.

    If you’ve got no filter set in the shortcode, and yet some records are not shown, it’s for some other reason, but I’m not sure what that would be.

    Understanding what a particular filter setup is doing sometimes requires knowing exactly what is in each record…and the best way to do that is to use a database tool like PHPMyAdmin.
