Not sure why the other user’s comment was removed, as this is clearly related to the same issue. Users who register through the Simple Registration form are now being given the “Subscriber” capability, which is breaking causing conflicts all over the place.

Interesting. I’d also like to know if this latest release is the same 1.5.8 as the github master one here?https://github.com/Astoundify/wc-simple-registration?(?https://github.com/Astoundify/wc-simple-registration?) as I had lots of issues trying to get that working a few weeks ago where roles didn’t assign correctly but rolling back to 1.5.6 solved the issues. In my case it was with WP Job Manager roles where normal behaviour posting a job made the user an ’employer’ role, else default role they would all be ‘candidate’. On the 1.5.8 version from github with no changed settings all new users registered via the job posting or other registration forms all had ‘subscriber’ status issued instead, so had to reassign them with python. Sticking with the old one for now.

The new plugin is also ignoring the default role for new accounts settings from Settings -> General, and giving all users “No Role Assigned For This Site”

Same issue here. Needed to revert.

Same issue here. It has also broken the WooCommerce product editor form.

I suspect what’s on the forum is only the tip of the iceberg, Personally, my phone has been blowing up all day with people desperate for help with their dead WooCommerce site.

Seems to be fixed now, thank you.

Site health as requested. Note that I’ve rolled back BetterDocs to the previously working 2.3.7:

@tnightingale please say thank you to your hosting provider for me:

This is the ModSecurity rule in question. Disabling it gets the pagination links working again.

Obviously I’d still like to see Events Calendar fix this. It’s a default rule in one of—if not *the*—the most commonly used WAF packages.

Are you referring to proxy_cache (for NGINX) or something else? As far as I can tell, there’s no software called ProxyCache.

Hi Chad,

Just to answer a few things raised in your messages:

1. CloudFlare has not been re-enabled again.
2. Caches were all cleared.
3. Permalink flushing made no impact

Permalink settings added below, as requested.

Working fine now, thanks.

@joomla-is-better

Also, your contact form is broked.
[contact-form-7 404 “Not Found”]

Thanks. Weirdly just saving the contact page again fixed that.

Fixed, thanks.

Per my initial message, it happens within a few seconds of updating the plugin from 4.5.x to 4.6.x

No clue what query it is. MySQL crashes before any serious troubleshooting could be done.

Clearing the logs does fix it, so I assume whatever processing of that table you do on update/activate is what’s causing it.

Issue found. There was 1.5 million lines in wp_download_log; which the old version had no issue with but the new version clearly does.

Can confirm that 4.6.1 is absolutely destroying performance.
