 * Hi,
 * I use AMR Users to export user lists that I later use to populate a complex map.
   I am happy with it and do not want to change, but I can’t use it any more.
 * AMR users seems broken on my WordPress : I can’t create a new list nor edit an
   old one.
    I tried to uninstall and got this error message at uninstall : Échec
   de suppression : Deleting number of lists and names in databaseDeleting cache
   status in databaseRemoved scheduled action{“success”:true,”data”:{“delete”:”plugin”,”
   slug”:”amr-users”,”plugin”:”amr-users\/amr-users.php”,”pluginName”:”amr users”}}
 * Thnaks in advance for your help, I’ve spent the day on it and am really stuck
   here.

 * Hi,
    I quickly retested locally and remotely and are not seeing any problems 
   adding or modifying. Which usually means it is some problem local to your system.
   Is there anything unusual about your setup ? # of users, lists?, php version?
   lots of plugins? whats your wp memory? If you goto yoursite… /wp-admin/admin.
   php?page=amr-users&tab=userdb&config=select (use url – the ‘tabs’ got broken 
   it looks like in fixing the previous bug (sigh)), you’ll see lots of info.
 * A good way to isolate a system specific problem is also this: [https://webdesign.anmari.com/2932/debugging-a-possible-clash-between-plugins-andor-a-theme/](https://webdesign.anmari.com/2932/debugging-a-possible-clash-between-plugins-andor-a-theme/)
 * RE Delete message:
    The message looks like a oddly displayed confirmation of 
   the cleanup actions. It’s not actually an error. In my testing (just retested)
   it does do the cleanup and then deletes the code. If it has not deleted on your
   system you can always delete via your control panel file manager or ftp.

 * Hi Anmari,
 * Thanks for your answer.
    I agree with you there probably are some corrupt files
   in my config, that even prevent me from doing a clean install.
 * Below is the results of running “[https://e-nable.fr/wp-admin/admin.php?page=amr-users&tab=userdb&config=select&#8221](https://e-nable.fr/wp-admin/admin.php?page=amr-users&tab=userdb&config=select&#8221);.
   
   Please note also that although using the above url works, clicking on any tab
   in AMR’s interfaces leads me to the main tab and I can’t change tab any more 
   by clicking on the tab’s name. Tested on Mac High Sierra on Chrome, Firefox, 
   and Opera latest stable versions. Thanks for your help. ______________________________________

 * Hi, I strongly suggest you upgrade your php version. See [https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/](https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/),
   
   Also memory limit is on the small side [https://www.google.com/search?q=wordpress+memory](https://www.google.com/search?q=wordpress+memory),
   although it doesn’t sound like a memory problem.
 * The can’t create / add sounds more like some kind of clash with other plugins?
   something messing with form submissions perhaps? or cacheing. Try the debugging.

 * g’day Anmari – from NZ 😉
 * Not sure if I should start a new thread but my problem seems similar to theozefrench.
 * Firstly, your plugin is lovely.. it is everything I would want an export plugin
   to do and has saved me a pile of pain. Thank you… except for a wee problem.. 
   when I migrated to my live site I can no longer create a list or rename a list(‘
   Overview & tools’ tab). Ive been developing locally using XAMPP and it all works
   perfectly.
    Theme and plugins are the same except the live site has Wordfence
   and UpdraftPlus.. which I have tried de-activating. Tried your ‘reset all option’
   button and ‘rebuild cache’
 * With ‘debug=true’ in config.php there are no messages in debug.txt
 * My environment looks like this:

 * Hi Jerry, well WordPress Memory limit: 40M is on the low side, however when I
   google things like [“wordpress options not saving”](https://www.google.com/search?q=wordpress+option+not+saving)
   or [“wordpress updates not saving”](https://www.google.com/search?q=wordpress+updates+not+saving)
   and look at situations where it’s happening to main wp, or previously working
   theme or plugin, then the sorts of suggestions that come up are mostly around
   cache either cache plugins or browser cache or possibly php max_input_vars. There
   are other suggestions as well.
 * Try using a totally new browser for a quick test.
 * To reset all amr% options, you can go into phpmyadmin to the wp_options table
   and search on ‘amr%’ and delete all those options. Plugin will then revert to
   default. You’ll have to find meta, fields etc again.
 * Please do post back if you figure anything out.

 * Hi Anmari,
 * I’ve been doing a bit of digging and may have found something.
    Recall that I
   have a working configuration locally and a broken one on my live site. I’ve been
   focusing on one action that doesn’t work, namely the ‘Add new’ button on the ‘
   Overview & Tools’ page. I see a difference in the $_POST object in the two configurations
   that seems pertinent: Working: [action] => save Broken: [action] => um_update_field
   um_ is the prefix for the Ultimate Member plugin. I now recall that I have different
   versions of UM installed in the two configurations. Investigating further and
   looking into the page source (via Firefox) I notice that the amr form that is
   defined by the following line: <form id=”userlist” action=”/wp-admin/admin.php?
   page=ameta-admin-overview.php” method=”post”> has no closing tag ‘</form>’ and
   I suspect that the <input> ‘action’ is being overwritten by a subsequent form
   which happens to be a UM generated form. I’m happy to keep digging however I 
   wonder if you could shed some light on this as to whether you believe this to
   be an amr bug or not…
 * Cheers and thanks for your time,
    – Jerry

 * ps. I can confirm that when I deactivate the UM plugin that amr-users now functions
   as expected. At least I have a work-around for now 🙂

 * Ahh Jerry, thank you. You’re right. UM seems to be adding it’s own html form 
   to the wp admin footer which then appears at bottom of all settings pages and
   combined with the unclosed tag on that page, that seems to be what’s stopping
   the submit working.
