Title: Buggy plugin Last modified: September 2, 2016 --- # Buggy plugin * [knightmetal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/knightmetal/) * (@knightmetal) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/) * I don’t know if it was just me but I found several bugs in this plugin without trying too hard. * 1. I created a new user account in the admin console but it never got added to my list of new users. I thought I had just made a mistake so I tried creating the new user again. When I did, I got this message “Email address is already in use another Client or standard WordPress user. Please use a unique email address”. So Basically I couldn’t create the user anymore under the same email address. * 2. After managing to create a new user, I went to the login page and this is what I get when I enter wrong credentials “$data[‘error_msg’]”. How horrible that is! Users don’t need to see that kind of a message. How about a “Wrong username and/or password. Please try again.” ? * 3. When you click the LOGOUT link I’m taken to a 404 page (the standard Windows 404). I guess I should be taken to the Homepage or something? * There’s actually a few more but I guess those three are enough. I think you need to spend a bit of time working on the bugs before offering a PRO version? By the way, considering the number of bugs found and after going through the plugin features I’d say the Lite version is “VERY Lite”. Not much offered!

This is a native WordPress restriction. In the documentation, you would have found that you should have used our “Convert to Client” feature which allows you to use an existing user as a client. * 2. This is an error we haven’t seen… possibly a theme/plugin conflict. * 3. Possibly your permalinks set incorrectly, or an invalid value in the logout redirect setting within WP-Client. * Did you contact support at all before this review? * Thanks * [WordMonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) * (@wordmonkey25) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783263) * Any fix for this error message yet? * I too receive this message when incorrect login info is input. * “$data[‘error_msg’]” * Plugin Author [wp-client](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wp-client/) * (@wp-client) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783264) * [@wordmonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) On which page are you seeing this error message? “domain.com/portal/login-page” or “domain. com/wp-login.php” or another, or all? * Thanks * [WordMonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) * (@wordmonkey25) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783265) * “domain.com/portal/login-page” where i’ve added to short code to create the login page. * domain.com/wp-login continues to function normally. * Plugin Author [wp-client](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wp-client/) * (@wp-client) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783266) * [@wordmonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) Can you please verify for us, what version number of WordPress and WP-Client Lite are you currently running? Thanks. * [WordMonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) * (@wordmonkey25) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783267) * wp-Client lite: Version 0.0.6 * WordPress: 3.8, but problem existed in previous versions as well. * Plugin Author [wp-client](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wp-client/) * (@wp-client) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783268) * [@wordmonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) Thank you for your feedback. We will address the Dev Team about this issue, and we will work to resolve it in the next version of the plugin. * Thank you for your patience. * [WordMonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) * (@wordmonkey25) * [12 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783269) * Good to hear. Thank you. * [richdykins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/richdykins/) * (@richdykins) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783274) * [@wordmonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) [@wp-client](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wp-client/) * I have had a similar problem with the WP-Client Lite plugin. I am running WP v3.8.1 and the WP-Client Lite v0.0.6 * When a visitor tries to login to the portal the following message displays if they enter invalid login information: * $data[‘error_msg’] * Obviously this is incorrect and should be some human friendly error message. * I have found where the problem is. In the plugin folder navigate to: * /forms/login_form.php * On **line 25** you’ll find: * `
$data['error_msg']
` * So the problem is that the $data variable wasn’t placed inside tags and _echo_ needs to be added. So to fix the problem replace the line above with: * `
` * This will then output a human friendly message saying that the user supplied incorrect login information. * I hope this helps in case anyone else is still having the issue. * Cheers * Rich * [WordMonkey25](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wordmonkey25/) * (@wordmonkey25) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-plugin-3/#post-7783275) * Wow, thanks a bunch for finding and posting this.
