Weekly reports setting changing when upgrading

  • Each time a new version of the plugin comes out and I upgrade my multisite install, I find that the setting under Notifications / Weekly Reports / Enable reporting has flipped to on. If I turn if off, that off setting works fine… until the next plugin update, when doing the update flips it back to on.

    I think this counts as a bug, as updates should leave user settings alone, or at the very least prompt the user to check if they want to change their setting?

    Those settings are enabled by default on a fresh install only, upgrading plugin should not change plugins settings at all. Probably this is a bug that is related to multisite installation or a multisite WP bug can cause this. I’ll look into it ASAP.

    In case it’s useful to know: this problem happened again when updating to the new 7.8.5 (i.e. the fixes in there didn’t resolve this for me). Thanks.

    How did you update the plugin? Manually? Please explain.

    I clicked the update option from the plugins admin page (i.e. I didn’t download the zip file and then manually update the plugin).

    Hi – this bug is still there I’m afraid. I just updated to v7.9.7 on WordPress 5.0.3 and the same thing happened with the setting resetting itself.

    Does it happen only to that particular setting?

    Yup, it looks to be just that one setting which resets.
