Hi Hanna,
I am still struggling with this. I disabled all plugins related to widgets or any of the contents of the existing sidebars and there was no change in the Add Custom Sidebars behavior. When I hover over either button, AddNew and Remove, the link that shows and doesn’t do anything is javascript:(void)0; but the buttons do show hover appearance.
Thanks, Kathy

Problem is related to new templates in The Events Calendar with version 5. If I switch back to the older version user interface, access restrictions appear to work as intended. For now I can leave it this way as we won’t go live for another month or so.
Of course it would be great if UM could update for the new plugin version, since this is a very popular calendar plugin. ;^)

Clarification: In both cases, I set the access restriction in the UM settings > Access tab AND in the Categories control panels.
I hope there is a fix or workaround, or something else I’m missing. Thanks.

Hi Hannah,
Thanks for getting back to me. I didn’t see your reply until now. (WP doesn’t send me email when a reply is made.)
Virtue Theme version: 3.4.2
Caching plugin: WP Suoercache: I clear the cache frequently, after updates and when I’m seeing odd behavior like this.
WP version: 5.5.1
Best to you also,
Kathy

Great, thank you. I’ll give that a try.

I get it now. After examining the debug output (I don’t know any software languages besides xaml, which is why it took so long), I see that Postie only recognizes sig lines that
1) Start on a new line
2) Have a return/linebreak between the pattern and the signature text
I can live with the first restriction, but not the second because our website receives emails from contact forms that insert signatures (“– Forwarded by…”) and from individuals whose email apps add one-line signatures.
Please don’t force the ^ before the pattern or the $ afterwards, as those can be added by Postie users who need them and can be omitted by users that need more flexibility.
Thank you, Kathy

In my original submission about this issue, my double and triple hyphens all look like single dash characters, but in the Postie Message settings tab, they show up as repeated hyphens.

Thank you for the code, ldeschenes. Unfortunately, it didn’t work for me, or I did something wrong when I pasted it into MyCustomPlugin. I am not a coder but can sortof read the code with lots of google help. The first time I changed a member’s role using a dropdown control in the Profile form, it added the new role to wp_capabilities instead of deleting the old role and adding the new one. I saw this behavior before adding your code. **Meta for role did not change.**
Next, when I used the dropdown to unselect the role (click the X), it removed both roles from the wp_capabilities meta but again did not change role meta.
Now the dropdown control does not update any values. wp_capabilities is stuck at a:0:{}.
I hope UM fixes this soon. My organization allows only one role at a time, in keeping with UM pre-V2, so the adding of roles rather than replacing is also a problem with current UM behavior.

One more piece of info: If I manually add a record to wp_usermeta with a value for role, my non-UM displays that are connected to Role show that value, but wp_capabilities doesn’t get updated in wp_usermeta and UM controls that are supposedly attached to role meta value are not affected by the role meta value in wp_usermeta. Editing the UM controls for role does not affect the wp role meta value that I put into wp_usermeta.

I have this same problem. I deleted the “Admin” UM role so my administrators only have one role: “Administrator”, but this is not available as a checkbox for “Select which roles can access this content” when editing a page’s UM Content Restriction.
It is a problem that I am not allowed to view my website content without logging out from my administrator account and logging into my member account, then logging out of the member account and back into an administrator account, over and over and over.

I think I figured out how to get the images in using Cloudup.
I’m trying to use “Contains” to show an OtherChoice textbox When BucklyMyShow is checked.
When ONLY the Contains item is checked, the OtherChoice textbox shows.
works fine if only the “contains” item is checked
When any other item is also checked, OtherChoice disappears, but should show.
textbox should still show, but disappeared
Settings for the checkbox control:
settings for checkbox control
Settings for the conditionally shown textbox:
settings for conditional control
The other comparisons (IsEqual, IsNotEqual, …) seem to work fine. My problem is with Contains, and there doesn’t seem to be a viable work-around.
Thanks you.

Sorry the screenshots didn’t show in my previous message. I used the img button to insert link to four photos on a server, but it doesn’t seem to work. Neither does copy/paste. Can you recommend how to add images?
Thank you.

Hello, I am also having a problem, specifically with Contains. If checkbox “Choice” contains ONLY the tested value “BuckleMyShoe”, textbox “OtherChoice” (show if Choice contains BuckleMyShoe) is visible. If any additional boxes are checked then OtherChoice is not shown.
Screenshot with textbox showing when only BuckleMyShoe is checked:

If a second box is checked, the textbox goes missing:

Reading all those ticket updates made my head swim. REALLY appreciate Wayne Allen even more now.

Hello Wayne,
I first found and installed Postie a few days ago. Great plugin, especially compared to what I tried first using borrowed code from various websites.
However, my jpg images only go through at attachments. When I send an email with the same image pasted into the body I get “There was an error adding the attachement: Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons.” I’m using MS Word 2016 to send the mail.
I just installed the support add-on and enabled it before I ran debug for each of two test messages, one with attached image and the other with an inline message. The reports I received showed that you should receive a copy at help.postieplugin.com.
THank you,
Kathy
