You can use this plugin to do a rollback to an older version of UM:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-rollback/
The plugin will give you a new link in the list for all your installed plugins
to rollback to any old versions.
Thanks for the suggestion, I actually have Rollback installed and had forgotten about it. Unfortunately, the downgrade did not resolve the issue. Does anybody know what could have caused this?
Hi @fethomm
Does your theme support shortcode in the widget? It looks like it doesn’t apply the shortcode to the widget that’s why it only shows the plain text.
Regards,
I read a lot on the weekend and tried to set my login/register widget up again after it being broken after moving WordPress to a new server. Instead of the shortcodes, that I enter into the widgets text field in the backend providing the functionality it is supposed to, it just prints the shortcode in the widget on the website. (see screenshot link in my opening post). Any idea why this happens? Would removing and reinstalling the plugin be an option. What do I have to backup to keep my members during the reinstall?
Thanks for coming back to me. It worked for a couple of months on the old server with the same theme, and it worked for ~ a week on the new server with the current theme. Unfortunately, I do not know exactly when it stopped. But there was no update of the theme involved. And contact forms still work, so it should not be the theme, as far as I understand.
Besides that, it works just fine to add the forms to the menus, no problem there. But that is not where they need to be.
