update to 2.0 messed up my site, shop, events page, payment gateways

Hi,

You have posted a review instead of a support request. 1 star reviews are not incentives to give assistance..

Your problems are not even due to the core WooCommerce plugin. Your issue is the developers of your plugins have not updated them for 2.0 compatibility even though they have > 3 months of betas to test against. The author of BitPay needs to fix this.

Thanks

I did not post a support request. I simply gave an excerpt of my issues list to indicate all the work that is ahead of me.

And please do not take me for a fool. If my problems are due to BitPay, then how come that when I change WooCommerce_Widget_Cart() to WC_Widget_Cart(), I regain access to the WC settings in Dashboard and the message dissapears only to be replaced by “Warning: ksort() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given in /home/vrielanc/public_html/ayurveda-hengelo.com/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce/classes/class-wc-payment-gateways.php on line 58”?
Excuse me but this does not seem to be a Bitpay issue to me.

And regarding the one star: I also give one star to myself for having “upgraded” to 2.0.

Thanks

I saw this the “Fatal error: Class ‘WC_Bitpay’ and assumed. The original comment was not well formatted, sorry if I misread ??

ksort() expects parameter 1 to be array, null given would only occur if there were NO gateways present OR if you had some custom code loading gateways when they shouldn’t be loaded.

The error obviously isn’t caused by core or we’d have had more reports by now, so it will be either 1/ A plugin you have installed or 2/ Some custom code or 3/ Your theme.

You said you had to rename a widget from ‘WooCommerce_Widget_Cart’ – this means the theme adding that widget hasn’t been tested in 2.0.

I’d suggest turning everything off, re-activating things one by one to identify the culprit(s) and then either updating those (assuming the authors have tested 2.0, it was in beta/RC for 3 months after all) or letting the authors know.

Please read these too:

I wonder, did you find the issue?

And regarding the one star: I also give one star to myself for having “upgraded” to 2.0.

Me to, this platform is joke for any business. But that’s again my fault for choosing it!

Thanks for your interest.
No I didn’t. I deactivated all plugins related to my shop and reinstalled Woo (and all the related plugins) from scratch (2.04). I can afford this since it is only a low profile shop. After this, there were some issues with Pronamic Ideal and also the suspected Bitcoin… which I resolved by changing (not updating…) thosed plugins.

The update to 2.05 gave me the usual php editing, like removing

<?php
/**
* woocommerce_sidebar hook
*
* @hooked woocommerce_get_sidebar – 10
*/
do_action(‘woocommerce_sidebar’);
?>

from the archive-product.php and single-product.php pages for example.

I will leave the updates for now. The shop is working again and the major woo change has blown over. See you at 2.5 :-).

I should like to change my star rating to 3 because I was all shaken up at the time of my initial post (people wanting to order and all, pretty hectic). Woocommerce is a very good plugin, and like all the other plugins and themes it comes with issues. Progress never goed without them…

Thanks for your help and interest! Keep up the good work!

Thanks, that would be appreciated.

A small tip, instead of updating those files, how about adding this to your theme functions.php file?

remove_action( 'woocommerce_sidebar', 'woocommerce_get_sidebar', 10 );

Should do the trick ??

Thanks, I will try that. But my Woo is outside my theme (Atahualpa), will it work then?

I am far from being an expert on php…

I think that should work. Worth a try anyway.

ok thanks

Thanks for that. It may also be useful to update the original review slightly, just so its more useful to those browsing through (the errors are ‘scary’ and they probably won’t dig through this thread to find out about the two plugins which broke this, not to see you resolved the issues!).

Cheers

It may also be useful to update the original review slightly

sure… but how? I cannot find an option to edit my original review

I have no idea ?? I’m sure there has to be an edit button somewhere, or perhaps you use the same form you submitted it with before. I’ve seen people change them in the past ??

When I set up a website for a client, I actually create 2 sites – a LIVE site and a SANDBOX site. Separate installs of WP, separate instances of the database, etc. Even on shared hosting, you should be able to do this.

Especially on an e-commerce site, this is a necessity. I really recommend it to anyone using WooCommerce or any other plugin/theme.

The SANDBOX site is testing grounds for any upgrades, code tweaks, etc. It insulates my clients’ live sites from any issues. Granted, I might have to upgrade twice, but it’s worth the headaches to ensure the LIVE sites work well.

I also allow my clients to train on the SANDBOX site, so if they mess up any orders don’t mix with live orders, they can practice adding products, editing, and so forth.

Hi Everyone.

I received a “Update” note on my admin page this morning. so i clicked update to 2.1. something. my website came straight back and gave me this error:
