Thanks @dnutbourne,

The six Mingle Forum tables (wp_forum_forums, wp_forum_groups, wp_forum_posts, wp_forum_threads, wp_forum_usergroup2user & wp_forum_usergroups) are included in the WP database.

My WP phpMyAdmin contains these tables so UpdraftPlus will back them up.

Thanks Tobias,
I was getting my knickers in a twist!

BTW TablePress is a wonderful plugin!!

Hi Ryan,
Yes the last master.zip file has fixed it.

Many thanks for fixing my issue with Unique Headers & TwentySixteen theme, so quickly.

Cheers,
Chris Street

… so I now have 150 pages without any headers plus two pages with Unique Headers.

Hi Ryan,
The Unique Headers are now working eg https://farnhamu3a.org.uk/groups-index/literature-groups/shakespeare-with-mary-bell/ & https://farnhamu3a.org.uk/cycling/ – however all the headers on all the other pages have now disappeared.

Many thanks for looking into this matter. I’ll try your solution now.

Hi Ryan,
Did you get my login details to get admin access to the site?
https://farnhamu3a.org.uk/wp-admin/

I’ve experimented with this page https://farnhamu3a.org.uk/cycling/ and have added a Custom Header to that page. However its not showing up when TwentySixteen theme is used.

I’d really appreciate some help. What other info do you need?

I too can’t get Unique Headers to work with WordPress Twenty Sixteen theme. However it appears to work fine with WordPress Twenty Fifteen theme.

@ryanhellyer: Were you not able to make a permanent fix in the plugin? Or maybe it’s a Twenty Sixteen problem?
