Simple Membership Plugin Conflict With JetPack

  • Hey Simple Membership plugin!

    Great work! I’ve been using this plugin for a few years now and it’s been great. Thanks so much for putting it together. I’d be happy to write a plugin review provided the bug mentioned below is able to be fixed.

    Recently, I ran into an issue with your plugin update. Specifically, plugin versions 3.8.9 and 3.8.4 of Simple Membership conflict with the most recent version of JetPack. I’m currently using version 3.8.2 of Simple Membership as a workaround, but it would be great to get this bug sorted out so the newest versions of your Simple Membership plugin can be accessed while also using JetPack.

    The bug I am experiencing is with WordPress admin log-in. I’m able to log into WordPress just fine, but after about a minute (or a few clicks around my dashboard), I’m booted out of my WordPress account and prompted to log-in again. This happens to no end. After several device reboots, cookie/cache clears, redirect checks, and chats with my hosting provider, I disabled all plugins and discovered that the issue occurs when the newest version of JetPack is active at the same time as either the 3.8.9 version or the 3.8.4 version of Simple Membership. Both plugins work fine on their own when activated while the other is deactivated.

    I should mention that I’m aware that not all plugins work well together, and I know it’s not your responsibility to make sure the Simple Membership plugin works with all other plugins in the repository. However, since JetPack is such as widespread plugin and a staple of so many WordPress sites, I hope this particular conflict encourages a bug fix. I’m not a developer, so unfortunately I cannot offer more details about what specifically is causing the bug. Would it be possible to check the conflict out on your end? I’m happy to continue using the older version of the Simple Membership plugin (3.8.2) for now, but don’t want to for too long as best practices support keeping plugins up to date.

    Thanks so much for any bugs you can fix or any new plugin versions you can create that don’t conflict with JetPack. I don’t want to switch membership plugins as I’d much prefer to use yours if I can. Let me know if you have any specific questions that I can answer to help solve this problem.

    Thank you! ??

    Hi, thank you for contacting us.

    Have you also created a support ticket with JetPack forum?

    Can you share what features “plugins/addons” in JetPack you are currently using? Also, what features in our plugin have you activated?

    The above should helps us further understand the issue.

    Kind regards

    Hey mbrsolution! Thanks for your response.

    I haven’t created a ticket in the JetPack forum but I’ll do so now.

    I was using a few different features in JetPack (under their Security / Performance / Writing / Sharing / Discussion / Traffic headings), but I disabled all of them and the problem still persists. Regardless, let me know if you need me to send you a detailed list of all features I had turned on previously. They’re currently turned off.

    For active (i.e., “checked”) features I’m using through the Simple Membership plugin, these include:

    GENERAL SETTINGS

    “enable more tag protection”, “hide adminbar”, “show adminbar to admin”, “default account status” is “active”, “members must be logged in to comment”, and “enable debug”.

    EMAIL SETTINGS

    “send notification to admin” and “send email to member when added via admin dashboard”

    ADVANCED SETTINGS

    “enable expired account log-in” and “allow account deletion”

    To confirm, I have no “addons settings” through the Simple Membership plugin.

    I should mention that soon after I started this support topic I noticed that the problem still occurred with the 3.8.2 version of the Simple Membership plugin, so it can no longer be used as a workaround. I also rolled back JetPack to try the last few versions of that plugin with the Simple Membership plugin and nothing seems to work. All combinations of the two plugins boot me out of WordPress admin every time I try to do anything within the admin, including accessing a new page, saving a change, etc.

    If I could just disable the JetPack plugin to keep using the Simple Membership plugin I would. Unfortunately, my site is comprised entirely of portfolio projects, which require JetPack to run (i.e., when I disable the JetPack plugin, my site’s content disappears). When I disable the Simple Membership plugin and instead keep the JetPack plugin enabled, I can see my site’s content (when “portfolios” are enabled as a feature in JetPack), however no membership features work because the membership plugin isn’t activated. That means all of my portfolio content–which is supposed to be available to paying members only through the Simple Membership plugin–is made public for all to see. ?? If I enable both JetPack and the Simple Membership plugin at the same time, everything looks/works well on the front end, but I’m unable to access the site’s back end.

    Please help! Thank you! ??

    Thank you for sharing the support link to JetPack.

    Hello,

    I am also having the same issues. Is there a work around in place or an update coming out soon to address this? JetPack seems to have hit “solved” on their page but they haven’t really provided a solution other than it seems to be WP Simple Membership.

    Thanks!
