Roles listing empty on MU admin pages

    I am trying to sort out some user issues with MU 3.1 install but the roles list (drop-downs) are empty.

    wp-admin/network/site-users.php?id=2 is one example page where this occurs.

    I have tried to add a user to a site and while it appears to be added (apparently successful) but no names appear in the user list and I think it is due to no roles being available to select during the add process.

    Of course, I am guessing, any ideas please?

    Thanks

  • It’s MultiSite now, not MU. Just FYI ??

    Also, shut off all your plugins (in both /wp-content/plugins and /wp-content/mu-plugins). Easiest way to do it is rename those folders, then load /wp-admin/network/plugins.php.

    After plugins are disabled, see if your user roles reappear.

    Try going to the actual site and adding a user there from the backend.

    (there’s more than one place to add a user to a site)

    I’m having the same issue here. I have disabled all plugins (also network disabled) and I’m still having the issue.

    /wp-admin/user-new.php – Site admin for the root site; Roles work fine
    /wp-admin/network/site-users.php?id=2 – Network admin; No roles appear
    /subsite/wp-admin/user-new.php – Site admin for ‘child’ site; No roles appear

    What could have caused this and how can I debug this properly?

    Thanks.

    I found my issue. The ‘wp_[blog_id]_options’ table was corrupted.

    How did you figure out your options table was corrupted and how did you fix it?

    My issue ended up being that I imported my wordpress tables from a local single install into my WordPress network. I updated the table names to include the ID for the site, but I missed updating the ‘wp_user_roles’ attribute in the options tables. So renaming that to “mwp_6_user_roles”, with “mwp_6_” being the prefix for my other site tables, the roles started to work.

    That worked! Thanks for the info.
