Hi Alberto,

Good to hear from you! No e-mails were not being received after registration. Right now I have configured the plugin for immediate login after registration so it is normal that no e-mails are being sent on registration at this time.

Hello,

The problem seems to have resolved itself! Not sure what happened but things are back to normal.

Hello,

Thank you for the suggestions. This issue has now been resolved. It did appear to be a caching problem because I cleared all caches (server and local) and then this message disappeared. Your responses are much appreciated.

Hello again Alberto,

Further investigation shows that if I choose the option of logging in after registration (instead of verifying e-mail after registration) then there is no problem. In that case the user is properly registered with default Subscriber role and can log in and log out as desired. It is just the option with verify e-mail after registration that is not working. Any insight on this will be greatly appreciated. I have temporarily switched to the log in after registration option so that the registration and log in functionality for new users is at least working but I would prefer to use the verify e-mail option, as before.

Also, could you tell me what does the Remember me? checkbox on the log in form do? If I check it then during the next log in attempt I still have to enter all of the log in credentials so I am not sure what difference it makes.

Regards,

Faiz

Thanks, Alberto. Much appreciated.

Hi Alberto,

You are absolutely right. I found out that this functionality is not coming from the WordPress core but from a plugin called MemberPress that I have on my site. I’ll now ask them about this issue as now it is clear that their plugin only records number of logins for any user if login is performed from wp-admin script but not if this is done using the Clean Login plugin. Let me investigate this with them and then I’ll get back to you.

Hi Alberto,

Thanks so much for your offer of help. Let me describe this issue in more detail.

I can go to the ‘Users’ tab (at the left of the screen on the WordPress Dashboard) to see a list of all registered users, their assigned roles, last login dates and #login (number of logins). This is a core WP functionality so any WP administrator can do this.

I see that if I login using WP native php (using the link /wp-admin) then that login attempt is properly recorded in the Users tab (complete with last login date, number of logins etc.)

However, if I login from the front of the website (using the link /login) where a login page with Clean Login shortcode is used then although the login itself works without any problem the login record in the WP Users tab is not updated. So login with Clean Login plugin is essentially not counted! I do not know how this can happen unless Clean Login does not do something that the WP native code does on every login attempt. I have tested this several times and this is the behaviour that I get.

I can confirm that user registration through Clean Login works well and all details appear in the Users list (like date of registration). It is only the login process through Clean Login that fails to update the WP Users table.

Let me know if you need any further information. I am sending you two screen shots through your gmail e-mail account. These show what I see on my WP dashboard for you to get an idea. Again, thanks for your help.

Faiz

Resolved.

It turned out that this problem was being caused by improper caching. I use WP Fastest Cache plugin. There is an option there to ‘show cached pages to logged in users’. This was turned on and this caused users right after logging in to still see the page as they had not logged in. On removing the check mark from that option the functionality returned to normal.
