In our case, we’re receiving emails from My Ticket like this:
PayPal receiver email did not match account or payment currency did not match payment on 122608126362 Array (

We're getting one for every eBay sale and I assume that this is because My Ticket can't match the transaction to one of it's own ticket sales.
Final post on this for now – don’t have to double-click, just moving the mouse around in the IE window advances the percentage bar. Obviously some loop is running that needs JavaScript events to be fired before it can advance?
Later… looks like it’s only with IE11. Works fine on Chrome. Just started import again as I started typing this later and it’s already at 40% in the first stage of the import process. It’s now accessing those same TMP files at a much higher disk write speed.
Just to clarify, the problem is only with the initial progress bar before you get prompted about overwriting your files.

Hmm, okay so I’ve got it past that first progress bar – and it’s now restoring 3483 files – at a reasonable speed. In fact, it’s finished whilst I was typing this message. So the quirk was that whatever that first stage was, it ran really, really slowing and only really worked when you double-clicked on the status bar.
One little extra bit of information – after the import finished and one is requested to save permalinks twice, I had to update the database first.
So it’s possible I’ve got a different version of WordPress, PHP & MySQL running on this new server. It was installed from Microsoft Web Platform.
It’s currently writing lots of phpXXXX.tmp files to C:\Windows\Temp. Double-clicking on the status bar definitely seems to be spurring it on. Now at 90%
Hmm, interesting – a spurt of speed? It appears that if I keep clicking on the status display, it moves along…
So 5% in nearly 30 minutes. Something must be wrong… there is no disk activity at all now
Here I am a while later and reached 55%
I’m trying to carry out a test import of a 180MB file. It exports from my main file server in seconds but its very slow importing into a new Windows 2012 server build (as a VM). Been going for about an hour so far and it’s at 40% – there is very little activity going on. CPU 2%, memory 1,4GB out of 3GB and a very low speed write to the .wpress file in the new website folder (wp-content, plugins, all-in-one-wp-migration, storage, [random folder], backup.wpress

In reply to: No input file specifiedThis appears to be a very common problem on WordPress on IIS and like you, I’ve tried much the same as you. I had one system that just wouldn’t log on at all (very disconcerting) on new devices but the 4.6 upgrade seemed to help that. Except the client has just reported “No input” on Firefox trying to open an approval link from email – although opening the website and logging on via http://www.website.com/admin worked fine. So still not 100%. I even managed to logon to the admin screen through my 7″ Android tablet with 4.6 – never been able to do that before!

In reply to: HTTP error 404 on wp-login.phpWell I was about to throw the towel in with WordPress as the above error had become endemic on all new computers that attempted to login to the site. Anyone already logged in was okay but if they logged out – bang! No chance of getting in.
Except v4.6 arrived today and after backing up, I upgraded. It looks like this fault has been fixed so one suspects it might have been a bug. Hope I’m not speaking too soon and it’ll break again later…

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Calendar selector doesn't work very well on ChromeErr… this is on a Windows 10 PC so Chrome is always in desktop mode 🙂
I’ve done it again today and got a different screenshot:
Calender shown this time but will rather wide
But was only able to get that once. After grabbing the screenshot, I tried it again and got this:

In reply to: [The Events Calendar Extension: Registration] Notification email formattingIf one customises class-event-registration-public.php, will it be overwritten if the plugin is updated?

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Find events date not in UK formatAhh, think I’ve found this. As the events I’m working on are in the future, I’m using the functions.php method of setting the default date which sets this line:
$_REQUEST[‘tribe-bar-date’] = ‘2019-09-01’;
That was a cut & paste job from the help pages. I’ve changed it to this format and it still works.
$_REQUEST[‘tribe-bar-date’] = ’01-09-2016′;
As a programmer, I know that date parsing is always a nightmare! I kind of thought that one should stick with UTC format behind the scenes for the setting of the tribe-bar-date but that the rendering would sort out the localisation.
Whether my site will work in the USA is moot as it’s unlikely you’ll be visiting Bollington 😉

In reply to: [The Events Calendar] Dates not in UK format when entering eventAhh found it, didn’t twig that the plugin has it’s own settings page where you define the format for the drop down date selector when adding an event.
