    Hi, thanks for the reply. I managed to remove the plugin.
    I’ll try again when my shop isn’t busy – I only have a production environment so can’t test it offline.

    I quite like this plugin, but disappointed that users can’t be selected by role or group, or that the user’s name can’t be injected into the email (extremely easy to do with PHP). Guess I’ll just have to hack… ??

    Am looking to achieve exactly the same thing, and am very surprised there isn’t a plugin/extension to do this. Not sure how I would go about it with Gravity forms…. any clues?

    Thanks for that tip ??

    I meant to add, that the SEO plugin in question was persisting even after de-activation, I’m not sure why that would be and I’ve never encountered that before. Should I report that to WP themselves?

    Holy moly, this has been painful to debug!

    Turned out to be an issue with an SEO plugin which had been working perfectly on all my themes up until a recent update.

    Have notified them of the fact it’s injecting invalid markup. Tut tut!

    Thanks for your help anyways ??

    1) I haven’t changed anything – it’s a clean install
    2) My site isn’t online yet.
    3) I’m using a variety of plugins, but have deactivated all of them and the empty <head> tag problem persists.

    Hi

    What they said.

    I’ve just set up the plugin and I have customised various elements of the WooCommerce account pages.

    When ADMIN logs in, all the custom fields are correctly displayed.

    When any other user logs in, they see THE CUSTOM ADMIN FIELDS, not their own.

    I am not using multi-site WP.

    Please look into this.

    Thanks

    Thanks Marcus!

    I’m thinking I need a custom page template for this, with a customer header.

    I’ve made an action note to rip my template apart at some point and grab the bits I particularly like, and try to develop my own in due course.

    Thanks again for your help!

    Thanks for that Marcus, I’ll have to look into getting the most up to date version (though I’m not getting a plugin update notification on my dashboard).

    I had to take a slightly different approach, as my social media bar is in my header.php file and shared across the entire site.

    I’m NOT a php developer so please don’t mock me if this is totally the wrong solution – am always grateful for advice from those with greater programming skills ??

    echo esc_url("https://www.supporthandmade.co.uk" . ( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ));

    The reason I did this was that if I didn’t explicity put my domain at the front, I only got the ‘slug’. It does seem to work for all pages. What I don’t (yet) understand is if this is making extra calls to the server or extracting the information from elsewhere (sorry, I’m hopeless!)

    I’m beginning to think it’s my template that’s at fault, as it’s doing wierd things with my meta data too :-/ Sadly I’m so far down the design road now that I simply can’t afford to find a better template without switching the site off for a few weeks. In any case, having to fix things like this myself is helping me learn PHP.

    How the heck do you get the slug for the individual event pages?

    I’m using the_permalink() in my calls to the Twitter API, but all I’m getting is the top-level slug:

    https://www.supporthandmade.co.uk/events

    I’ve tried with title re-writing on/off and no change.

    Doesn’t seem to be much point in having social media buttons if you can’t actually grab the URL!

    Anyone know how to get the full friendly URL for a single event?

    I think we have it working now.

    Please remember I am a content manager and not a developer – we change the “file sharer” role throughout the code for the role we wanted to use in our set up. This role has all the same rights as your code sets for the default role, so this worked just fine.

    We have hundreds of registered users and want to roll out this service to them, but I don’t think they would be too happy with a separate account.

    My final question (and it is the final question) is why the page(s) can’t be be made for existing users?

    As for billing you to make this work, I wish we could – but we are a charity.

    Thanks for your help anyway.

    The plugin installs fine and appears to work ok (the UI is working for user and admin) BUT….

    I see this error at the top of every page where the plugin is used, and in the “Managed Files” view:

    Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in /homepages/19/d390752567/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/user-files/user_files.php on line 1516

    Warning: file_get_contents(https://www.whereyoursolutionis.com/ads/userfiles.html) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /homepages/19/d390752567/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/user-files/user_files.php on line 1516

    Although the plugin appears to upload files for user pages, and also appears to download them, ALL filetypes are corrupted – JPEG, EPS, DOC, TXT.

    On “Manage Files” in admin mode, the UI appears to let me upload a file for a selected user, but the file does not get uploaded at all.

    I added these to my php.ini:

    memory_limit = 100M
    upload_max_filesize = 192M
    post_max_size = 100M
    file_uploads = On
    allow_url_fopen = On
    allow_url_include = On

    Is there something else I need to change?

    Sorry, I am a content manager not a developer, so I need a little help with this!

    Thank you very much ??

    Sorry I forgot to say that I use:

    WordPress 3.2.1
    PHP5
    The latest version of this plug in (downloaded and installed today)

    missweblash

    (@missweblash)

    Using an unmodified version of the plugin, I did the following (using WP 3.2.1 and PHP5 on my server)

    Installed the plugin
    Activated the plugin
    Created a new user (default level Subscriber)
    Changed their role to “File Sharer”
    Saved the user profile

    The plugin continued to complain that there were no users in that role, and no page had been created.

    Another thing I found is that if I uninstalled the plugin, the File Sharer role wasn’t deleted. Each time I tried to get the plug in working, it created another File Sharer role; I ended up with 6 (at least), all of which I had to remove because I couldn’t tell which one was the correct one to apply to the user.

    Also, no WP File Share page(s) were created.

    Looking at the PHP code it seemed a fairly trivial matter to swap out the “File Sharer” role for the one I would like to assign to (and to disable the making of the File Sharer role in the first place). This didn’t work either.

    Just out of interest, is there any particular reason the plugin was written to be tied to one particular role, rather than a user-defined role with (say) matching capabilities?

    I would also say that having a webcast is a great idea, but many organisations block video content. A text-based version of the instructions would be awesome.

    As it stands, we’ve resorted to using user-role based forums for sharing images. It’s rudimentary, but it works.

    I can’t get this to work at all.
    Not for existing users or new users.
    Have deactivated, removed, reinstalled and reactived a gazillion times to no avail.
    I would also expect it to work for any other role specified (enhancement, perhaps).
