Hey Ben,
Can you give me a little more info on that?
1) What version of WordPress
2) What version of WPRollback
3) Local install, or live site?
Any other relevant details would be helpful as I haven’t seen this behavior and no one else has reported it yet. Thanks!
I haven’t change anything on the site, but the Rollback button is now showing. I had suggested it to a user who couldn’t find it either, so I’m not sure if this was exclusive to my site.
Here’s the info requested:
1) 4.2.4
2) 1.2.4
3) Staging site with WP Engine
If it comes up again, is there anything in particular you want me to check for? I hate to introduce a bug that may or may not exist – these kinds of things haunt me lol.
Funny, we actually chatted with the WPEngine folks a while back and they said they love this plugin and they use it themselves regularly. I’d chalk it up to code gnomes for now.
Definitely let us know if you find something reproduce-able. Thanks!
Will do, thanks for your support!
No problem. If you’re enjoying WP Rollback and have appreciated our support we’d love a kind review from you:

Thanks!
Okay it happened again and this time I believe I know why.
When I activate it on a new site, it displays this message in the bottom-left corner of the theme modal windows:
“No Rollback Available: This is a non-WordPress.org theme”
If I run the “Force Plugin Updates Check” plugin to check for updates, the Rollback buttons then display in the bottom-right corner of the modals. If I deactivate and reactivate the plugin, the button continues to show properly.
It sounds like it waits until the first update check to figure out if the themes are from the repo or not. If someone is quickly installing this for a rollback, then that could be a problem. Maybe it could force a check on the activation hook like the Force Plugin Updates Check plugin?
That’s good info. We’ll dig into that and see if we can reproduce. Thanks for following up on this for us.
