Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. You led me to the correct admin page. For this issue (needing to mass-delete pending users), the term to consider from the Users Admin Menu, not the resulting display, is “Manage Signups”. On navigating to that link at /wp-“admin/users.php?page=bp-signups” I was able to change the number of views, which was set at 100. I was then able to change that number up to a maximum of “999”. And, that truly allowed me to delete 997 in one block.

I love this forum because of the generous help I find from my WP Friends.

Thank you again!

I turned off the plugins, and that seems to have allowed me to upload new theme. I’ll upload the Health Check next and try to root out the evil-doing plugin.

Much appreciated.

Ok. I FINALLY have this situation resolved. Sadly, I will have to delete this plugin after consulting with my ISP.

I’ll miss not being able to “screen” new users prior to them getting activated, and watching live activity on the page.

Thanks for trying to assist.

It looks like I may have inadvertently neglected to select this box:
“Enable Front-end Lockout: [] Check this if you want all visitors except those who are logged in as administrator to be locked out of the front-end of your site.”

Is there a way to turn this “on” somewhere?

I’ve already tried renaming the plugins folder via File Manager in cPanel, and that didn’t work.

Good Morning, @mbrsolution!

Thank you SO Much for your reply. I was getting worried.

I’ve tried the “wp-login.php AND the “wp-admin.php” methods. Neither is working. I haven’t reviewed the settings in the associated dashboard in a very long time. So, I don’t recall if I had Brute Force activated, but I’m fairly certain I did not have rename login page activated.

I’m using GoDaddy cPanel. Is there someway to successfully check those two settings in the cPanel, under MyPHPAdmin, or inside the File Manager, and deactivate the offending setting? Or, temporarily delete the plugin?

I used to do this routinely with no problems. Not sure what happened.

Looking forward to your reply.

Have a great day!

I’m closing this support request. If the moderator could delete this, I’d appreciate it.

I made a mistake identifying Wordfence as the problematic plugin.
It’s actually a maintenance mode in All In One WordPress Security.

Fixed. It was a browser issue; not deleting the plugin properly.

I’m still having issues with this, and now, a new one has developed while trying to use the WP Dashboard to update see below:

Updating Plugin WooCommerce Blocks (2/2)
Downloading update from https://downloads.www.ads-software.com/plugin/woo-gutenberg-products-block.2.4.3.zip…
Unpacking the update…
An error occurred while updating WooCommerce Blocks: Could not copy file. woo-gutenberg-products-block/build/product-category.js

Here is what I’m getting on the original failure as of this morning.
Updating Plugin WooCommerce (1/2)
Downloading update from https://downloads.www.ads-software.com/plugin/woocommerce.3.7.1.zip…
Unpacking the update…
An error occurred while updating WooCommerce: Could not copy file. woocommerce/assets/css/menu.scss

“I just tried again…” See my last comment. I’m sure you could figure out what I meant, but I wasn’t able to edit my comment as I noticed my error too late.

Hello @riaanknoetze,

I’m simply using the plugin update process within the WP dashboard.
I just again, and received this error.

“An error occurred while updating WooCommerce: Could not copy file. woocommerce/includes/admin/settings/views/class-wc-settings-rest-api.php”. I am NOT hosted in wordpress.com.

I hope this helps you, RK. Thanks for the reply.

I apologize in advance. This site is ONLY open to users in the USA.

@macmanx Thank you for your reply. I apologize for my delay. I FINALLY got in touch with the current host, and was able to gain FTP access.

So, I hope this isn’t a stupid question. [Don’t you hate it when people start like that.]
Anyway, it appears there is an empty folder with a child theme with the same name.

I renamed the active theme per your suggestion. Unfortunately, the site didn’t revert to the default theme. When the page loads, it is simply a blank page. I’m glad that I have been able to change what viewers see, but I still need a nudge in the right direction.

Any additional thoughts come to mind?

@sterndata, Thanks for your quick response. Your solution solved
that problem wonderfully in terms of allowing me to change the admin email.
For some reason, however, I am still not receiving email notifications as I test a new plugin. The plugin uses a “[admin_email]” short code in a Formidable form. I think I’ll just strip that shortcode out until I can figure that out with Formidable.
For now, I’ll close this ticket since changing the account was the primary concern, and that is resolved. I’ll go to Formidable next.

@judgerookie, my apologies for not responding sooner. the app for Facebook seems to have worked perfectly. I still need to work on Linkedin.

Thank you very much for your kind assistance!

Happy New Year!
