[Plugin: Allow Multiple Accounts] Does not work with MultiSite Network v3.1

Hi everyone,

Lorelle has succeeded in badgering me to paste the patch into pastebin.com

(Lorelle, apologies if I seemed to give you a hard time. I’m hoping I’ve got the link right.)

https://pastebin.com/Ubm6fyak

I have uploaded the full code of the patched “allow-multiple-accounts.php” file so all you need to do is download /copy & paste the code in its entirety to “allow-multiple-accounts.php” and upload it to your server overwriting the original.

Alternatively you could unzip the original plugin, replace the original “allow-multiple-accounts.php” with the new one, zip it up again and install it on as per normal.

Lorelle: if you have no joy in contacting the original author, perhaps you can advise me on how to either take over the plugin or create a new entry in the repository. Perhaps some of the gurus at www.ads-software.com could point me in the direction of the replacement to the now undefined function user_row() so that I can come up with a more permanent compatible fix for WordPress 3.x

Happy pasting!

Jeremy

You rock!!! It looks brilliant. Going to try it this afternoon. This will help so many. I’ve let the author know about all your hard work. Scott is one of the most prolific WordPress Plugin authors in the community and maintaining all of them can be a headache. I’ve pointed him in your direction. Thank you so much!!!

This will be less of a headache for you, I’m sure. You are the best!

Hello,

I make a version slighty different than jtarrier version.

You can see it on pastebin :

PERFORMANCE are BETTER when you have a WordPress with many users !!!
(i only get users with email counter > 2)

Hello Amaury,

Thank you for posting your new and improved version. Your efforts will be greatly appreciated by everyone following this support thread.

The code I posted on PastBin was simply a consolidation of the code snippet kindly posted here by @cassiedong (it’s since been removed due to the posting rules) so that the plugin “just worked” with the emphasis on the word “just”.

All the very best,

Jeremy

Don’t you just LOVE the WordPress Community. ?? You guys are awesome. Thanks so much.

@lorelle … ditto here on LOVE for the WordPress Community … as fyi, i have had a lot of experience over the years with differing tech communities and i am truly amazed (a good thing) at the generousness, professionalism and responsiveness the WP community seems to resonate with …

technically, my only regret is that other teams, like local, state, national, and international governing bodies don’t follow same suit of openness, transparency, accountability and just plain professionalism as exhibited here in these forums …

all the bogus emotional tirades, petty bickering, ineffective management, etc in US political channels certainly could learn a thing or two from mirroring WordPress community but i digress :>)

having said that, the good news is that i think i read that massive amounts of gov’t agencies are adopting WordPress for various internal and external networks … so who knows, maybe our civic leaders will be inspired with elevated professionalism given their increasing participation with the rest of the WordPress community …

and no, i’m not picking on governing bodies as certainly their jobs are complicated and probably a great portion of them are under appreciated efforts … yet when you look at Congressional Weiner’s out there, who yell, lie, etc, you wonder if their game couldn’t be improved by taking a page or two from WordPress community realities and best practices … to be continued … cordially, chuck scott

I’ve just released Allow Multiple Accounts v2.5. There were a number of bugfixes and improvements. Compatibility has been extended through WP 3.2.1 and compatibility has been added for BuddyPress (1.2+ and the coming 1.3).

It fixes the user_row() bug many reported, and some things not mentioned. To the best of my knowledge, I’ve fixed all outstanding issues with the plugin. Please let me know if any further issues are encountered.

Hi Scott,

Great to have you back at the wheel again.

Thanks for the new release. I look forward to downloading it shortly. It really is a treasure when creating and testing sites.

All the best,

Jeremy

And thank you Jeremy for providing help to those who were having problems with the plugin due to its delayed compatibility update. All should be set right once again, or let me know if something hasn’t been.

Thanks, Scott, for the update. For those tracking the conversation, this is the link: https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/allow-multiple-accounts/
