ok it was because i had duplicate usernames for those. figured it out.
Doing more testing. I found that running the importer later if “update existing users” is toggled to Yes, then the importer will delete any previous users it conflicts with.
So if last week I had a user register with the email [email protected].
This week if I run the importer and there’s a user with [email protected], it’ll keep mail9.com user and delete the mail.com user even if mail.com wasn’t in that import because the update current users was selected. This isn’t so good.
I have tested a lot of ways to do this and have found that the best is to use Excel and save as HTML. Then that will give you your file_name.xlsx and a folder. Inside the folder is sheet.xlsx. Open that in a text editor and delete everything above the <table> and below </table> HTML tags so it’s just the table in HTML. Then using TablePress, you can import that html and it will keep the links as you had them entered in Excel.
Hope that helps someone. It’s much faster to do the HTML import if you have a lot of URLS than the other options: keying them in as HTML in TablePress or using an Excel macro to pull the urls into a new column so you have your link text in one column and the url in the next column. Just looks kludgy that way.

This thread on another plugin seems to suggest that the plugin needs to be updated to support OAuth 2.0 and that’s why the errors. I’m getting them too.

Hopefully the plugin can be updated.

In reply to: Plugins not updtingYeah, if you’re not comfortable with ftp and accessing the server directly might be kinda tough w/out hiring someone. I didn’t need to do the manual install, so it might/might not help. Hard to say til you find out the actual issue.

In reply to: Plugins not updtingHi. I had this same problem. My solution was a bit technical, but I thought I’d let you know even if you need help to do it.
I first went to the wp-config.php file and changed define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false); to true so that I could see what the errors being generated were.
In the errors, it said that the database user couldn’t access the table. I then went into my database editor and checked on the user access to make sure it had the correct privileges. It did but the error persisted, so I made a new user with a new password, granted the privileges to access the database.
Then I went back to the config file and updated it with the new username and password.
Then I reloaded the updates page in the site’s admin and it was working correctly. It now said that I was using an old version of WP and needed to update. I clicked to update and it worked as usual.
Hope that helps…
