    After updating to the latest WP and e-Commerce, every visitor to my site is turning up on the Users list as an Anonymous user (starting with an underscore and random alpha-numerics) – It must have something to do with the _wpsc_bot user that turns up after each time I delete it…
    So after a couple of days, there are thousands of users registered as anonymous on my site….
    How do I stop it?

    Tell me if I’m wrong to do this:

    in WP-e-Commerce / wpsc-includes / customer.php

    comment out lines 98 to 116
    and comment out line 203

    what will be the long term damage to this?… so far it suits my purpose….

    After finding more detail and reading more about this issue, Im happy to wait for any further updates to help control this – even just reducing the time the ID is kept, or at least giving us an option to choose the time the ID is held…. Call me OCD, but I like to keep things neat.

    Hey dear I have the same problem here which annoys me so much and no one replied till now!!!
    did you solve it?

    For help with a plugin, you should be using the plugin’s dedicated forum:

    Posting your own thread is a better way to get help, BTW.

    As my original post says, I updated both WP and e-Comm at the same time – so was unsure what the cause was… it was only after about 6 hours of mucking around and searching that I found what the problem was and where it was… queeneve – leave it alone, it is part of the e-Comm code… nothing to worry about, just looks messy…. so dont look at it.

    I am waiting to see if the developers come up with a solution if any. I have reinstated the code that I commented out originally…. so far it does not affect the flow as much as I can see.

    Only problem I can see with the situation, is if a customer has a full cart, and then logs in at checkout as a returning customer, he loses his cart… has to go back and add items back to his cart.

    I prefer the old system…. but I will embrace the new… eventually.
