Thanks for the reply @TheTux. Did you do an xml site map and have google index your site? I’m thinking that’s really the only way they can know what’s going on with the content… curious.

See the code Gonçalo posted on the above link. perfect…resolved.

I was saving theme options to theme_mods_mytheme and every time I would save, I would end up overwriting the Menu locations “nav_menu_locations”.

I just used a different option name for my theme options to avoid conflict.

Instead of

$settings = ‘theme_mods_’.get_current_theme();

I’m using

$settings = ‘theme_options_’.get_current_theme();

Nice tutorial on options here….

(not my site.)

Detective work complete.

My objective was to do a query_posts using meta_key and meta_value_num based on the most recent comment. So I’m storing a timestamp in the postmeta. Here is the code I can up with and it’s working great.

function recent_comment_timestamp() {
	global $comment_post_ID;
	$meta_key = 'recent_comment_timestamp';
	$meta_value = time();
	update_post_meta($comment_post_ID, $meta_key, $meta_value);
}
add_action( 'wp_insert_comment', 'recent_comment_timestamp' );

If any comes across this scenario, I’ve got the fix.

A user fills out a registration form and becomes the default role, mine is set at subscriber. After they’ve registered for the site and consequently become a subscriber, I am directing them to pay for a membership, (In My case using paypal). I’m updating their status to “Paid Member” in user_meta AND elevating their role to a custom role I’ve created called “Member”

You must set their role using set_role in the WP_User class. If you change their role via wp_update_user, you will lose any “CUSTOM” user_meta information you may have collected in a CUSTOM registration form.

I needed to update this new user’s role so I used the following…

$new_role = ‘Whatever’;
$user = new WP_User($user_id);
$user->set_role($new_role);

This updated my newly paid Member’s role without disturbing any of my CUSTOM user_meta information I have collected.
