wp-member shortcodes fails to bring login page

    I’m in 4.3.1 and perform wp-member upgrade from 3.0.5 to 3.0.5.1
    Now I’m getting the shorcutcodes instead of the actual login or even register page

    e.g.
    [wp-members page=”login”]

    so I’m logout from portal to even be able to change anything.
    Any idea how I can overcome this?

    thanks in advance

    If the shortcodes are not parsed then you don’t have the plugin activated; either that or you didn’t get a full download.

    First check to make sure you have the plugin activated. If you do, I would suggest downloading the plugin and transferring via FTP to make sure have the full package.

    Hi Chad…
    Indeed it wasn’t active… which is weird since during plugin upgrade they should be activated automatically.

    For those newbies like me:
    My main problem was that wp-member shortcode was my only way to access the portal.. but I’d learned that I could get to wp login page (it means not using wp-member plugin if I understand properly)…. for that you need access wp login page… it can be either of below:
    https://<wwwname>/wordpress/wp-login.php
    https://<wwwname>/wp-login.php

    as a piece of information… while searching around there is a command line plugin (wp-cli) that could help you to get control your wp instance from command line, I guess it could help when you cannot login to the GUI console… however, you will need to have ssh access.

    Good luck

    Chad… thanks for your help.
