Utimate Member 2.04 Upgrade Broke My Site, Exposed Private Site

    I just checked my website that had UM 1.x installed. I was able to access the portal (Private site, requires login via UM) without authenticating. I logged into the Dashboard and saw error messages related to UM extensions.

    I checked my installed plugins, and UM was deactivated (It was auto upgraded to 2.04 by another plugin I have installed). I tried activating it, and then running the upgrade process, but it didn’t work. I had to disable the 1.x extensions first, and then the upgrade process worked. My guess is that the upgrade would have gone smoothly if I didn’t have the 1.x extensions installed.

    Hopefully none of my users’ private data was crawled before I fixed it…

    Hi @tekfused,

    Sorry for the issues. We don’t have the ability to auto update the plugin. This requires the user to click to update the plugin unless your host offers auto updating of plugins?

    Have you got the updates done ok now?

    Thanks

    Thanks for the response! Thinking about this more, I do have a plugin that auto updates all plugins when a new version is available… So what I’m thinking is that when the UM 2.04 was uploaded to the repository, it auto updated.

    When I logged in to the admin dashboard, I saw errors relating to the 1.x plugins and it said that they couldn’t work with 2.0. 2.04 was in a deactivated state because I had the 1.x UM extensions installed.

    So the problem is that the upgrade process doesn’t account for the 1.x extensions being installed. It should at least deactivate them so the upgrade can complete. That would be preferable than to lose all UM functionality.

    Does UM 2.0 not get along with User Role Editor?
