Upgrade to 1.4.02 broke my database

Sounds like a multi site setup, this plugin does not support WordPress Multi-site currently.

I am currently looking into supporting it, however that may be a little way off.

For the time being I’d recommend disabling the plugin and keep an eye on this thread.

It hasn’t broke your database, it simply halted because it couldn’t find the table it needed (due to the Multi-site setup). The plugin itself kind of supports Multi-site, it is just going to require some tweaking on my end before it works fully (e.g database updates as you have found.)

So yeah, keep an eye out – I will be adding a new branch for Multi-site development which you are more than welcome to test out once I make it live.

Thanks,

Thanks for the quick reply. I’ll keep an eye out

Good Evening @jshare,

I have just finished up a MS version of the plugin, would you mind taking a look on a test environment? It should be fine on a live environment, but, give it a go on a test one beforhand to make absolutely sure.

Will do, when I get a chance soon

Finally got a chance to test this!

This is what I did:

I uploaded the version you linked to above – 1.4.03 – with PHP Errors enabled. Before I activated it, WordPress told me there was an update. I checked the changelog and saw that Multisite support is now officially there, so I updated to 1.4.4.1 and then activated the plugin.

WordPress blocked the activation with this error:

There was a problem whilst updating the database. (Table 'mydb.wp_1_usermeta' doesn't exist)

And it’s true: there’s a mydb.wp_usermeta, but no mydb.wp_1_usermeta.

So I deleted the plugin and tried again.

This time I uploaded and activated 1.4.03 right away.

The ‘problem updating the database’ message didn’t appear, and the plugin activated and is working. For example, I can see who’s online in the bbpress forums.

If I now deactivate the plugin, upgrade to 1.4.4.1, and try to reactivate… it works.

What do you think?
