# Users issue

 * Hi,
 * Within the multisite I have a specific issue on one site with the display of 
   users on the users list. There must be 3 users assigned to the site, although
   the users listing says 3 items (in the top right above) the list is empty.
    When
   I check the users on network level the users are visible in the list. If I want
   to add a new user, the rule option setting is not working on this site. This 
   issue does not appear on the other sites within the network.
 * I deactivated all plugins and changed to the default wp template. But none of
   these changes made the issue disappear.

 * Try running a repair on your database. One site implies that something there (
   obviously) went corrupt.

 * Hi,
 * I did a repair but no changes in WP users.

 * Do the users appear in /wp-admin/network/site-users.php?id=1 replacing the siteid
   with the correct one for the problem blog? If so, remove them from there and 
   re-add. They’ll be missing some meta information in the DB that will be recreated
   when they are added again.

 * Hi Ed,
 * The users do NOT appear. Although it states that there are 3 items.
    The users
   are ONLY visible in network admin.
 * If I want to add a user in the affected site, I cannot select the role.
    And 
   the added user does not appear in this site, only the network admin.

 * How hard would it be to export and import the content to another blog, remove
   the original one and import it back again to re-create the entire blog?

 * Well this could be an option, I will do some research for this and let you know.
   
   Thanks!

 * 3 items? You mean it says there are three users but no one shows up?

 * Hi Ed,
 * As you mentioned to export, delete the blog and import the data in a new blog
   this seems to be very tricky. As there a lot of plugins in this affected site
   so all settings will be lost. It would be a major job to get everything working
   again.

 * Yeah, that would be an issue. Best thing would be make another blog/site and 
   copy all the settings across to it first then delete the old one and rename the
   new one in network admin. There might be a plugin somewhere that can replicate
   the blog with a couple of clicks, like Blog Templates plugin or something. You
   would be best doing it by hand though to make sure it wasn’t actually a plugin
   or setting that was causing it.
