[Plugin: Alkivia Open Community] Several Problems After Upgrade to .10

[cfisher]

I upgraded to the new Alkivia .10 today. I have 2 problems.

(1) The first is that all of the subscriber thumbnails have disappeared. The original photos are still in their user sections.

(2) The plugin expanded the user roles to: “Author|User role” as opposed to the original “Author.” This has thrown my alignment out of whack. Is there some way to remove the “User Role” part and just leave the actual assigned user role?

Thanks!!

cfisher: What WordPress version are you using? The ‘|User role’ part was striped in WP 2.9 when WordPress changed the roles translation method.

Are you using a previous version? Perhaps WP 2.8 ?

[cfisher]

I am using the latest version: 2.9.1. You can see this at my user community here: https://www.bmedreport.com/bmed-user-community

It’s a strange behavior as this strings are not present in 2.9.1.
Perhaps a fault uplgrade?

In Your site code says that you’re running “WordPress abc”. This is not an standard WordPress version. It reports as:

<meta name="generator" content="WordPress abc" />

When standard version reports as:

<meta name="generator" content="WordPress 2.9.1" />

What do you see when creating a new user or editing a user on the role box?

[cfisher]

Keep in mind that my WordPress version number is hidden due to a feature of the WP-Security Admin Tools plugin. The roles definitely do not include the ‘|User role’ part when creating a new or editing an existing user. Chris

[cfisher]

I deactivated the WP-Security Admin Tools plugin just to see if that interfered with anything and the ‘|User role’ still appeared so that is probably not it.

[cfisher]

The other question to consider is why these user role changes only appeared after a .10 upgrade. You would think that if they existed already they would have showed in .9, which they never did even after I upgraded to 2.9.1.

[cfisher]

Noticed you came out with a new version. I installed it. Nothing seemingly changed though I suspect this was a back-end change for the version number that gets changed with the WP-Security Plugin.

I still have the “|User role” problem. Does anyone else get this??

1 side note: I received an install error when I tried to do the auto-update to .10.3; however, all you need to do is deactivate the old version and then install the new one… no problem whatsoever after this.

When only changes the last version number it means is a bug fix version. No new features and no code change, just bug fixing or new translation introduced. You always have the changelog to see what has changed from one version to another.

About the string problem, I’m trying to figure out why you have this issue as I cannot reproduce it in any of my installs. The plugin just shows the translated role names as WordPress returns them, so I have to check within WordPress core why in you case returns a wrong translation.

Can you report here all your plugins list? Specially if you have any plugin related to users or roles.

No problem. Sorry for all this hassle. Here are my plugins:

Hi Txanny,

I thought I’d check in to see if any progress on the User Role issue discussed above? Thanks – Chris

[cfisher]

Txanny – Did you give up on my issue?

[cfisher]

Hi Txanny,

Any luck figuring out what causes this issue:
Alkivia expanded the user roles to: “Author|User role” as opposed to the original “Author.”

I really like to get this fixed if possible.

Thanks!
Chris
