In reply to: [Conditional WooCommerce Checkout Field] Included in ExportThis should be possible, although I haven’t used the CSV export extension myself.
According to their documentation, you can add custom meta keys to the export.
The plugin saves the customer’s input as a custom meta field with their order. The custom meta name that you would use would be the title that you entered on the Conditional Field’s settings page.
Again, I haven’t used the export plugin, so I’m going off of their documentation only. It seems like you would simply enter the CSV’s column heading, select “Meta field…” from the drop-down menu, then type the meta key in the box below.
Using the example in the screenshot on the link I provided above, “CustomerIP” would be replaced with what you want the column heading on your CSV file to be, “Meta field…” would be what you would select from the drop-down menu, and “_customer_ip_address” would be replaced with whatever you entered as the Title field from the Conditional Checkout Field settings. Enter it in exactly the same as it is in the settings (i.e. don’t add hyphens or underscores if there is a space in between words).

In reply to: [WordPress CRM Plugin - WP-CRM System] Assigned function broken?In the WP-CRM System Dashboard page, is the box next to “Searchable Menus” checked?
If it is, uncheck it and save the changes. Then try again.
I’m wondering if there’s an error with the script that is loading the menu.
As for your database tables, it shouldn’t matter what the prefix is.

In reply to: From domain to localhostWhen you import the database into the localhost, you’ll need to update the
siteurl
andhome
options from thewp_options
table. I’m guessing these values still have your old site’s URL. Change it to the URL you would enter into your browser in order to access the site on your localhost setup.Also, the wp-config.php file will need to be updated with your localhost database’s name, username, password, and hostname. You’ll find these in the lines that look like this:
/** The name of the database for WordPress */ define('DB_NAME', 'your-old-database-name'); /** MySQL database username */ define('DB_USER', 'your-old-database-username'); /** MySQL database password */ define('DB_PASSWORD', 'your-old-database-password'); /** MySQL hostname */ define('DB_HOST', 'your-old-database-host');
Change all of the “your-old…” pieces to the appropriate values for your localhost database.
This should, at a minimum allow you to log-in to your site. The site may not display 100% correctly, though. For example, some images may have to be updated as they are likely referencing your old domain (i.e. https://youroldsite.com/wp-content/image-name.jpg needs to be updated to https://localhost/new-site/wp-content/image-name.jpg).
An easy way to fix this in bulk is to use the Better Search Replace plugin. Enter the old domain as the “find” string, and the new, localhost domain, as the “replace” string.
I’m hoping you also backed up the wp-content folder from your old site? This is where all the plugins, theme files, and images “live” on the site. If you did, you can swap out the backup copy of wp-content for the new site’s wp-content folder.

In reply to: SMTP IssuesIt seems as if there’s a disconnect between your site and the email server. Are you certain that the SMTP settings are correct?
If so, try disabling all plugins other than the SMTP plugin. Do some action on the site that would prompt an email to be sent (i.e. create a new user account with a valid email address, use the “Forgot Password” link, etc.) and see if the email goes through.
- If email does go through, try reactivating plugins one-by-one, while attempting to send an email as described above after each plugin is activated. The last plugin activated when the emails fail to send again will likely be the one causing the issue.
- If the email doesn’t go through, make sure that the domain for the email address matches the domain for the site (i.e. [email protected] being sent from example.com). Sometimes a mismatch in the domains causes the email to not be delivered.

In reply to: Need to allow group members to edit their own pagesAuthors are limited to the following capabilities:
- Edit their published posts
- Upload files (i.e. images that can be used in their posts)
- Publish posts
- Delete posts
- Create new posts
Contributors are even more limited:
- Delete posts
- Create new posts – posts are submitted for review to a higher level user (i.e. Admin) as Contributors can’t publish posts.
In both cases, the user is automatically assigned as the author of a post/page when they click the “Add New” button and create a new page or post. As a Contributor or Author, they will only be able to edit the pages and posts that they are the author of.
If you have pages/posts that are already on your site that you want to assign an author/contributor to, you can change the author by:
- Edit the post you want to reassign the author of
- Click the Screen Options tab at the top right of the post edit page
- Make sure there is a check in the box next to Author
- Scroll down to the Author section, and select the Author from the select menu
- Save/Update the post
You can’t assign a user to a specific section of text within a page or post, though. They either can edit everything on that particular page or nothing at all.
Oh, and you asked about whether or not the content was the same as a post. Here is a great tutorial on the difference between a page and a post.

In reply to: [WordPress CRM Plugin - WP-CRM System] Assigned function broken?Are you sure that the companies/contacts you have created are set as “Published”? Draft, Pending Review, Scheduled, or any status other than Published will cause the record to not show up in the select menu.
Great, if it doesn’t fix it, please let me know and I’ll dig into it a bit more.
Thanks!
The fix I suggested above was released in version 2.0.23 of the plugin.
I’m marking this resolved, but if the issue persists, please open a new support thread.

In reply to: Need to allow group members to edit their own pagesIf you can edit their user role to Author, they will have the ability to edit only their own posts.
Authors have the edit_published_posts capability, which should allow what you are looking for.- This reply was modified 7 years, 12 months ago by Scott DeLuzio.

In reply to: Cannot login after deactivating plugins..Can you try logging into your site via http://yoursite.com/wp-admin rather than https://yoursite.com/wp-admin
If not, try restoring the database from your backup, then you should be able to login again like normal.

In reply to: Can’t update to WordPress 4.7.3. nor update pluginsWho is your host? I know GoDaddy managed WordPress disables WordPress core updates by the end user (you), and they push the updates out on their end.
Another possibility is that you are nearing the max limits of your host’s storage. When the updated ZIPs are downloaded to your site it may hit the max storage limit then fail to update.
