Thanks, @jeffpaul. I will look into it.

A question for those who have switched after the WP User Avatar fiasco: Did you have to recreate all of the user avatars that were already in place with WP User Avatar? I have several membership sites each with several hundred users so manually recreating the avatars would be difficult.

I have received an email from the Woocommerce team explaining the situation. I have updated all of my sites to the latest version in their current branch. (Many had already been updated automatically.) I will update them to the latest version after I can test the update on my dev sites.

I never did figure out how to allow subscribers to upload an image from the frontend, so I ended up giving them access their profile on the backend, and they can upload from there.

Resolved.

Thanks. That allowed me to move it. It was difficult, however, to move the value from the top of the 500 entry list to the bottom, but it did work. Thanks again.

Some additional information on this. I can upload an image as a subscriber from the backend, that is in the user profile, but it doesn’t work from the avatar_upload shortcode used on the frontend.

I am having the same problem. Works for admin but not subscribers. Any word on this?

@kimabaghdasaryan the updated plugin still has the problem. Here are some more details.

Wordpress version 5.2.1 running Sparkling theme (same issue with 2019 theme)
PHP version 7.1 with All PHP Options + OpCache EasyApache profile
All plugins deactivated except Photo Gallery and Really Simple SSL
381M of photos in the uploads/photo-gallery directory
Free version of Photo Galley plugin
Photo Gallery sidebar widget with Type: Gallery Groups; Gallery Groups: All Galleries; Sort: Random; Count: 12; Dimensions: 70 x 70; Themes: Theme 2
There are 10 Galleries defined
No errors in the error log.

Going to a page with the widget on it takes about 4.5 minutes to display. Going to a page without a widget loads immediately. Removing the widget allows the page to display very quickly. Deactivating Really Simple SSL allows the page to display quickly.

I don’t know what happened, but the problem is not there in version 1.5.23.

Do not delete the plugin via the plugins page. You will lose everything if you do that. What I am suggesting is to use FTP. Via FTP delete the files in the plugin/photo-gallery directory. Download and unzip the desired version of Photo Gallery off of the developers page (see my previous post). Upload those files to the photo-gallery directory. You should now be running the older version of the plugin. You might want to try the updated plugin mentioned above first.

@kimabaghdasaryan I will try the new version later today and let you know how it goes.

Mine also eventually loads after more than four minutes. The problem is with the gallery widget. I assume you have a gallery widget on the page that is slow, correct?

No, you will not lose you photos if you install an older version of plugin. The plugin files are under the plugins directory and your photos are in your uploads directory.

Any update on this? The bug still exists in 1.5.27.

@ctruc You can get previous versions by going to the advanced view https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/photo-gallery/advanced/ and at the bottom, select the version you want and select download. You will need to manually install the old version by deleting the current version and ftping the old version to your server.

This used to be a decent plugin, but it has gone significantly downhill the last few versions.

Yes, I am sure. With Really Simple SSL activated, it takes 4+ minutes to display. Deactivate it and it displays quickly. Please note, that the conflict is with Really SSL and the Photo Gallery widget. You must have the widget on the page you are trying to display to see the problem. Also note that in this case, there are thousands of photos it is working with, so that may contribute to the issue.

Neither the plugin in your link above nor the recently released 1.5.26 fix the issue. If the widget is used, the page display time is over 4 1/2 minutes.

It is set to https as it should be.
