Ok, interesting … but that didn’t work. I tried it on just that line — then took it one step further and changed all the lines that had the same situation – quotes inside quotes.

Any other thoughts? I can’t seem to find anything – and I know php enough to make some changes and sometimes troubleshoot – but in this case I’m stumped — so any thoughts/suggestions are much appreciated.

Liz

Sorry, I just realized the line numbers aren’t there — specifically line 15 is:

'menu.topItemBegin' => "<span class="l"></span><span class="r"></span><span class="t">",

but I know that just that line of code won’t be very helpful.

Thank you!!

Perfect thank you … notifly was what I was looking for …

Thanks!

Liz

no, I do have Simple:Press Forum installed though ..

Oh, ok. No that isn’t happening. When the user over writes the admin — they overwrite the admin user at the level they are coming in at.

Could be a Wishlist Member issue, I’ll check with them to see if they have any “insight” or ideas.

I’ll also check the logs.

I did look at the user lists and the 66th member was the first one that had the issue, then it was the 90th member and then 137th … so no pattern there.

I will let you know if I find anything from Wishlist Member (that is the plug-in I’m using to manage the membership area) or from the logs.

Thank you for your time!

That would be fine if this were a constant problem. As in, once it happens it happens every time a new user signs-up. But it isn’t. I can’t disable a plug-in for a week or more and see if that is causing the problem.

It happens, I fix it and add the person the right way – appending them as a user to the table, and then it doesn’t happen again for quite some time. 10 or more people can sign-up before it happens again – and the number doesn’t seem to be consistent.

Has anyone else had this issue? Someone else told me they thought they had heard of this with WordPress Mu – but wasn’t sure if it was exactly the same. In this case, they aren’t setting up a site at first, I set-up the site for them later….

I have only the plug-ins that I absolutely need enabled. Is there any other way to troubleshoot? Perhaps, can I give you a list of the plug-ins I’m using to see if you have heard of a known issue?

Liz

What is completely confusing is that everything was working perfectly fine for 70 or so member/user sign-ups … then randomly one person “overwrote” the admin. Then it was fine again … then it happened again last week. Then again it was fine until this afternoon and happened again.

Now, at the time of the first issue – I don’t believe I had made any plug-in changes … at least not that I recall – but it was a few weeks ago so I might have made an update, I’m not sure.

Liz

Sorry I have not replied sooner …

what is happening is that a new user signs-up and their information (username, privilege level, e-mail, name, etc…) goes into the “wp_users” and “wp_usersmeta” database tables in the first “line” in place of the admin information that was originally in there … as the first user.

It happened again this afternoon. Several users can be added and then all of a sudden someone signs-up and their information goes into that first “spot” in the wp_users and wp_usersmeta database tables.

I cannot find a pattern in when it happens.

Liz

Ok, I restored the database from early this morning …

but does anyone have any thoughts on why it happened and how to make sure that it doesn’t happen again?

Does anyone have any suggestions or thoughts as to why I can’t change the category of a post? It happens with new and old/imported posts. I also tried adding a new category thinking it might have been an issue with the imported categories, but that isn’t working either.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Liz

I figured it out. The wp-config of the main hosted domain – not the one I wanted networked – got changed somehow.

Thanks.

Ok, I’ve got the main site back up – had to change the wp-config/restore it to before I enabled multi-site.

So, when I enable multi-site this is what it tells me to add to the students.rhysthomasinstitute.com wp-config file:

define( 'MULTISITE', true );
define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false );
$base = '/';
define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'students.rhysthomasinstitute.com' );
define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/' );
define( 'SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
define( 'BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );

But if I do that it effects the install at https://www.rhysmethod.com (the base hosted domain). Here is what I changed it to:

define( 'MULTISITE', true );
define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false );
$base = '/students/';
define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'students.rhysthomasinstitute.com' );
define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/students/' );
define( 'SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
define( 'BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );

Here is what it says to put in the .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

this is what I changed it to:

# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^/students/index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?files/(.+) /students/wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

# add a trailing slash to /students/wp-admin
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
RewriteRule  ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-]+/)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
RewriteRule . students/index.php [L]

# END WordPress

But with those changes I am getting the error “can’t access the database” …. does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Liz Martinez

nevermind …. it was my wishlist member plug-in … that one wasn’t deactivated the first time I went through … Thanks.

neither of those made a difference … deactivated plug-ins and the page still didn’t show … then I set it back to the default theme and still no change. This is very unusual and frustrating. I just can’t figure it out.
