I have set Updraft to make one backup of the entire website and two backups of the database and this is daily for both. But once a backup is done, the old backups are NOT deleted and the Google Drive gets filled up and I have to delete manually. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin] Excess backup files](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excess-backup-files/) * Thread Starter [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/) * (@lethalmiko) * [3 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excess-backup-files/#post-16486389) * [@bcrodua](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcrodua/) after some investigation, it seems the problem arose because a caching plugin consumed too much disc space and Updraft backups were failing to complete as you suggested. * However, the plugin in that case should not just keep adding incomplete backups forever when this happens. The space it was consuming from incomplete backups was more than twice the size of the website. * It should be intelligent enough to calculate that the space consumed by the incomplete backups is sufficient for a normal single backup and it should delete them all automatically and then create a single full backup as per settings. * At the very least, it should throw up warnings in the Admin area about low disc space and failed backups. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Paid Memberships Pro - Content Restriction, User Registration, & Paid Subscriptions] Missing fields on Order page](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-fields-on-order-page/) * Thread Starter [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/) * (@lethalmiko) * [3 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-fields-on-order-page/#post-15962427) * I figured out what was happening. It was an issue with manually created orders.

Perhaps that is a good compromise between the two positions. Thanks for your help. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Paid Memberships Pro - Content Restriction, User Registration, & Paid Subscriptions] How do I set default access settings?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-set-default-access-settings/) * Thread Starter [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/) * (@lethalmiko) * [3 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-set-default-access-settings/#post-15919541) * Thank you [@andrewza](https://wordpress.org/support/users/andrewza/) for your guidance. However, please note that in my testing, the user does NOT have an active subscription initially. All they are doing is registering and then creating an order that goes into a pending state and yet they have access immediately that pending order is created. * I do not believe this should be the case and the `$hasaccess` parameter should be set to false by default for all users unless they have a successful order, without having to code a custom access function. In fact, for the pay by check addon, this is precisely what happens as orders go into a pending state but no access is granted until the admin marks the order as successful. May I suggest that you consider adding this no-access-by-default setting to the core plugin codebase. Or maybe write a guide on your website since it is a core plugin issue. * And finally, I am not asking for support for any paid addons, so I am not sure why there is a constant reference to it. I reiterate that I only mentioned the addon to give extra information that may be deemed relevant to my problem. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Paid Memberships Pro - Content Restriction, User Registration, & Paid Subscriptions] How do I set quantity for membership level?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-set-quantity-for-membership-level/) * Thread Starter [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/) * (@lethalmiko) * [3 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-set-quantity-for-membership-level/#post-15917640) * Thanks. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Paid Memberships Pro - Content Restriction, User Registration, & Paid Subscriptions] How do I set default access settings?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-set-default-access-settings/) * Thread Starter [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/) * (@lethalmiko) * [3 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-do-i-set-default-access-settings/#post-15917413) * Thanks for the reply. * I only mentioned Approvals Add On in case it is relevant information to my issue, not that I am asking for support on that. My experience is that users have access just by creating a pending order and that is not the expected behaviour. That is a core plugin matter. * My question thus remains unanswered. - This reply was modified 3 years, 10 months ago by [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Paid Memberships Pro - Content Restriction, User Registration, & Paid Subscriptions] Problems with expired accounts still working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-expired-accounts-still-working/) * Thread Starter [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/) * (@lethalmiko) * [4 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-expired-accounts-still-working/#post-15319324) * I will revert if I discover anything new about the disappearing cron jobs.

I did not have to disable any other plugin. I have 70 plugins installed and the process of enabling one by one is rather tedious. When I tried it today, I could not find the offending plugin. I shall try again more slowly this time. * Thanks a lot mate.

Here the URL of the link I want > to publish on my Facebook page”. Facebook visits the provided URL, collects > title, description and image from OG metatags and than publishes the link with > collected from OG tags title, description and image. * [@nextscripts](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nextscripts/), you are basically claiming that the mechanism Facebook uses to automatically pick data from the OG tags doesn’t work correctly after receiving the URL from your plugin, yet the mechanism works when someone posts the exact same URL manually on a facebook page. If this is true, then you should get in touch with Facebook to alert them about this and ask them to fix it. * It is simply **NOT TRUE** that the OG tags are not set correctly or that they are missing at time of publication. Insisting on believing in something that is demonstrably false makes it impossible for you to get to the bottom of this problem and solve it. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[NextScripts: Social Networks Auto-Poster] Facebook autopost not displaying featured image](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/facebook-autopost-not-displaying-featured-image/) * [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/) * (@lethalmiko) * [8 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/facebook-autopost-not-displaying-featured-image/page/2/#post-9389317) * By the way, whenever I post an article manually on Facebook, it picks the correct featured image every single time but the autoposting doesn’t work. So if it is true that this plugin merely sends the URL to Facebook which then picks the details from the OG tags on the story, then logic dictates that the result should be exactly the same in both cases. If autoposting fails to make Facebook get the data from OG tags, then even posting manually should also fail since the OG tags are incorrect or not there. - This reply was modified 8 years, 10 months ago by [Lethalmiko](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lethalmiko/).
