Revisions not lining up with correct user

    Hi there,
    I’ve been having this issue with WP Document Revisions with the user not lining up correctly with the revisions made. This happens for comments too.

    Please see screenshot here: https://ibb.co/mzwyvd3

    In the example, Hamish didn’t enter the Barenbrug entries 4 days ago, Blair did.

    This has been a bit confusing for users.

    Could you please advise if this could be fixed?

    Thanks

    This problem occurs because the plugin corrects for a WP bug #16215. However this was fixed some 7 years ago. So now the plugin gives incorrect information as you have found.

    (Note that it is a display issue only.

    I have made a fix to the software held on GitHub wp-document-revisions/ a while ago but it is not currently released.

    Of course, amendments made prior to the WP fix will display incorrectly.

    @nwjames Thanks so much for the reply and explanation.

    Are you anticipating an official updated release of the plugin that has this fix in the near future? Or am I best to apply a patch until then?

    Thanks again

    I am sorry but I cannot say. It is a decision by Ben, the plugin author.

    There was some activity yesterday on the GitHub repository yesterday for updated translations, which may indicate a release soon.

    I have recently found that WP 5.6 will bring a breaking change to the taxonomy counting process and there should need to be a new version released.

    Sorry I cannot be definitive.
