Thanks, but none of suggestions seem to address HOW WordPress user accounts are being created. The site has 2 administrative user accounts and these fake orders created 3 additional accounts. In the past 24 hours I’ve been hit with 50 rankmath attempts, which I assume are trying to elevate the bogus user accounts. In all of the entries in the Failed Orders – Fake Information thread, most of the fake orders have timed out and auto-cancelled. Nobody else mentioned the added user accounts, which I think is the real reason behind the fake orders. So my question remains: How can an (fake) order be used to create a new WordPress user account?

If you are running the free version of Wordfence, I would recommend manually refreshing the firewall rules every so often. Automatic refreshes occur on a weekly basis, and with all this going on, you want to be as safe as you can. I’ve had 45 of the rankmath hits in the last 24 hours. My last Fake Order was 2 days ago. NoCaptcha may be helping there. I’m still trying figure out how the WordPress User accounts got created. Not many people have reported them. Store accounts yes, but not User accounts.

In the past week I’ve 3 of these fake orders with the same info as the OP. In addition, I found that along with each of the orders, a new WordPress User account was created with the Role set to Customer. Right after the 3rd Fake Order, my WAF blocked a rankmath attempt. (was blocked by firewall for WAF-RULE-233 at https://blackwatercreatures.com/wp-json/rankmath/v1/updateMeta) What’s even more interesting, while typing this post, I’ve been hit with 15 of these rankmath hits. Three cheers for Wordfence.

Joey,

Thanks

Joey,

Thank you. Will I have to set this for each order, or will it remember the ‘last’ order?

I got brave and thought I’d try the update to WP 5.1.1. I once again got the error message about line 73 REQUEST_URI. This time nothing worked to make it go away and I couldn’t even get into the CP. I found this post https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/warning-use-of-undefined-constant-request_uri-assumed-request_uri/ which talked about putting ‘ ‘ around REQUEST_URI in line 73.
Might not be the same error you’re getting, but seemed to fix it for now for me.

I just had the same problem after updating to the latest levels of NextGen Gallery and NextGen Pro. I deactivated, then reactivated both plugins and the problem resolved. Uldis23, you should give it a try.

Oliver,

Thanks for your response. Rank amateur, keep confusing similar named plugins. ?? I’ll have to give your plugin a look when I get back in range of descent internet service. I’m currently enduring xx Kbit service on an island in the Philippines.

I’m having the same problem, but only with Internet Explorer and Edge. Chrome and Firefox work OK.

When I expanded the last field of the exported csv file I found the product id, which was not the same. I changed that, and a few other things to match the newer records. I imported the changed file with update records. All looks good now, but will keep an eye on it so it doesn’t bite me.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
@bobwey1

OK. Well, thanks for the help. Could you also consider showing the order_number instead of the order_id, for cases where people are using sequential numbering plugins because random numbers were bothersome?

Thanks again.
@bobwey1

That’s it!!. Is there a way to re-sync??

Hey @kokomoweb

I had already tried displaying all states, as well as changing the state of a non-displaying order to processing and back to complete. Didn’t help. I also exported the current orders and compared the csv file to the file I used to move the orders over. I can see no difference in the the content in the columns. I was hoping for a flag I could set. I moved the orders early enough after creating the new site that the order_numbers and order_ids remain the same. I have some subsequent orders where they are different. I’m using a sequential number plugin. On the Product page, your plugin is displaying the order_id field.

Thx
