Site breaks/500 Error on 2.1

Thanks Predag 🙂

Is there any ‘auto updating’ built into CoursePress as well? The last few days, even after I’ve put 2.0.7 back, when the built in wp_update_plugins cron, the plugin looks to have been auto updated and so crashed the site.

I’ve disabled WP Crons and it didn’t update today! I’ve never had plugins auto update via the default update plugin cron before…

Hi Kasia (my mandolin is called Kaisa!!!).

The 2.1.0.1 update was working until I logged out and then it all went wonky again! There’s this error message now:

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘class’ (T_CLASS), expecting identifier (T_STRING) or variable (T_VARIABLE) or ‘{‘ or ‘$’ in …serverstuff/public_html/wp-content/plugins/coursepress/2.0/include/coursepress/view/front/class-student.php on line 6

So I’m currently putting 2.0.7 back again…!!!

I’m guessing that:
add_action(‘coursepress_after_settings_username’, array(CoursePress_Helper_UI::class, ‘password_strength_meter’));

needs to be:

add_action(‘coursepress_after_signup_email’, array( ‘CoursePress_Helper_UI’, ‘password_strength_meter’));

But I’ll let the devs push out a proper fix…

Thanks for clarifying the updating issue. I thought it was unlikely to be CP doing the update. Very strange, I’ve never known plugins update themselves like it was doing. I’ll check with the host and see if they’ve got any strange force update thing configured in their cloudserver set-up…

Best wishes,

James
