 * Big thanks for the speedy and helpful responses! 
   I tried [@keraweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/keraweb/)
   second response, however it simply printed out the entire code on the page as
   is so the page loaded with neither the poster nor the video. _Note that Divi 
   builder offers a Code Module that should not affect text in any way so it’s not
   transcribing “[” into ascii codes and the like._**SUCCESS: **I ended up plugging
   the php code from [@pdclark](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pdclark/) into
   my child theme functions.php file and then adding the associated [video_upload]
   shortcode into a Divi Code Module. It worked perfectly! It’s a workable solution
   though it does enforce one widget in a completely separate location that has 
   to be remembered and is outside the pods / theme zone (regardless of whether 
   I used it as a plugin or via functions.php). **Thanks again for the helpful responses!**
   My content and layout needs are very simple for now so I can get away with this
   short term. Ultimately, the pods template is the better route that I need to 
   learn sooner as I add more layouts for related fields ideas and flexible index/
   search results pages and more as the project balloons.

 * Couple items of interest:
    1. I created a separate Email Notification profile titled **Instructor Notification**
       while disabling the default Admin Notification. This because I don’t need the
       site admin to receive notice, just the Instructor the form is meant for.
    2. The Instructor Notification > **Email Subject** field is using **{page_title}**
       Smart Tag. I’ve also tried **{post_title}** without success.

 * [2 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/payment-gateways-not-showing-on-donation-form/#post-17678393)
 * I found this very frustrating. It makes no sense to developers that functioning
   gateways established for many legacy forms won’t work with visual form builder.
   Why would anyone know they were separated in a buried global settings area of
   the plugin?
 * Furthermore, it’s not explained in the obvious place many would look: the [Give Help docs](https://givewp.com/documentation/core/give-forms/visual-form-builder/)
   
   Even if there’s a technical reason at least make a note in the builder! Like 
   so:
 * When building in a visual form > **Build** tab > **Payment Details** module, 
   show a note in the right column **Block** area: “**Ensure your Payment Gateways
   are enabled for Visual Form Builder.**” Then link to the **Give Settings Gateways**
   where the tab is.

 * Thank you, Priya!
 * I was using the shortcode above but events going back to 2019 were appearing 
   first in the list.
 * _The key here is **expiration**_. Unfortunately, I was NOT setting end dates 
   on any events with just one date so few were expiring automatically thereby showing
   when orderby=”event_start_date” is used.
 * Now my assumption is that by explicitly setting an end date on every event, they’ll
   expire and then fall off the list generated but the above shortcode.
 * **SIMPLE FEATURE REQUEST**
    Manually setting an end date on single day events
   seems redundant though. Why can’t the plugin assume the event expires after the
   day/time of the single date event?
 * Better yet, provide a setting that is default off for this feature but can be
   turned on. Something like a checkbox with this label: Allow single day events
   to expire automatically at the event’s start day and time.

 * Thanks, Mej! I haven’t much explored this aspect of WP maintenance and so don’t
   know the ins and outs.
 * I notice a popular db cleaner is Advanced DB Cleaner, but it requires premium
   version to identify tables by the plugin that created them.
 * Anyone know of a free plugin that can target tables by a specific plugin?

 * I found a workaround: grant donor users the customer role capability. Now I can
   now edit and switch to these donor users from the shopmanager.
 * Settings here: WP Admin > Users > [user profile] > Additional Capabilities > 
   Other Roles.
 * Unfortunately, this solution is dependent on the User Role Editor plugin that
   provides this capability.
 * Also, it’s not a future-proof solution because it requires remembering to manually
   activate on all forthcoming Donor users as well as tying me to yet another plugin
   I don’t want to keep unless I absolutely must.

 * John,
 * Thanks for responding!
 * My shopmanager role definitely has edit/list_users activated according to the
   Role Editor plugin and shopmanager’s own user profile page which shows Additional
   Capabilities > edit_users.
 * I cannot view donor users profile details page as shopmanager user. I can list
   them but all donor users show the name NOT linked (and the “View” link that appears
   under the name on hover only leads to a “No results found” error page).
 * Any other ideas on how I can force editing capability on users? Is there another
   route to giving user edit access to my shpomanager role?
 * I feel like there’s a clue somewhere in this situation with the give manager 
   user. It can edit donor and customers users. Yet, when I combine shopmanager 
   with give manager capabilities, shopmanager still can’t edit donor users. This
   seems to point to some fundamental break but I can’t figure out where.

 * No! wp-config did not have it. When I added back, the site works.
 * Thanks, [@donncha](https://wordpress.org/support/users/donncha/), for the timely
   help!
 * I can’t imagine why this isn’t happening to others just by deactivating the plugin.
   To be clear, I followed the instructions ([https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/#installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/#installation))
   and disabled + cleared cache first. Then, when I simply deactivated the plugin
   from WP Plugins menu, `<?php` was immediately stripped from wp-config, thereby
   killing the site.
 * Did I do something wrong?

 * Thanks again, [@matheusfd](https://wordpress.org/support/users/matheusfd/), for
   the excellent help!
 * So I fixed perms with the user profile for the database on the website (**Drop**
   was deselected as a permission for the user of the db).
 * After that the **Delete give_logs and give_logmeta tables** portion succeeded
   and everything is green on the **Tools** > **Data** > **Database Updates** section.
 * LOG ERRORS / PENDING ISSUES REMAIN
 * Afterward, however, I tested a donation using Stripe and the charge is not going
   through to my bank as there’s no record in my statement after about 20 hours.
 * The transaction in **Give Donations** > **Donations** continues to show as **
   Pending**.
 * Also, in **Donations** > **Tools** > **Logs**, I see two errors for the transaction
   in question. See the dump for more information:

 * MYSTERIOUS
 * I’m not sure what else to try here as I don’t know where the fault is. Is it 
   Give plugin(s), Stripe, db/its user, WordPress, plugin conflict?
 * VERSIONS
 * Here are all of the Give plugins currently running:
    - Donation Plugin v2.10.1
    - PayPal Pro Gateway v1.0.3
    - Per Form Gateways v1.0.2
    - Recurring Donations v1.12.1

 * Thanks for the critical help here. Your timely expertise is much appreciated!
 * I’m running v2.10.1 of Give and latest WP 5.7 with MySQL 5.7.31 on PHP 7.4.15.
 * I followed the directions and turned on **Adv DB Updates** to rerun **create_revenue_table**
   without problem in **Tools** > **Data** > **Database Updates**.
 * Before retuning the above, the following items were showing as **Pending**:
    - Delete give_logs and give_logmeta tables
    - Delete old synchronizer logs
    - Delete old email logs
 * All reran fine except “**Delete give_logs and give_logmeta tables**” which now
   is marked as **Failed**. Here is the data dump from this error: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/6noel6owi2pgk6t/gro-give-error-log-tools-data-database_updates.txt?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/6noel6owi2pgk6t/gro-give-error-log-tools-data-database_updates.txt?dl=0)
 * From **Tools** > **Logs** there is an error for a Stripe payment test from last
   week, April 9: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/v7hmz7pttiil477/gro-give-error-log-tools-logs.txt?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/v7hmz7pttiil477/gro-give-error-log-tools-logs.txt?dl=0)
 * At least the **problem running migrations** error is no longer appearing, though
   I haven’t tried a test donation with Stripe again yet.
    _______
 * OTHER (KINDA FOGGY) DETAILS
    Not sure if related but, around same time as migration
   error notice appeared, both Paypal and Stripe disconnected. After reconnecting
   Stripe, got the error in Tools > Logs mentioned above.

 * I got this perplexing warning too that is far from helpful or informative.
 * I don’t know if it’s related but either shortly before or after both PayPal and
   Stripe connections were severed and I was forced to reapply to both companies
   and verify identity (which suggests maybe it’s not related to the migrations 
   issue).
