No – as far as SP capabilities are concerned you have what you need.
As far as WP capabilities go then I can not be certain but I can think of no reason why you should be thwarted. My own personal knowledge of multi-site is not really up to much diagnosis but I would have thought if you were the main site admin there shouldn’t be an issue.
Steve (Mr Papa) knows a little more than me regarding MS so I will ask him if he has any ideas.
This is what they’ve said:
The wp_capabilities in wp_usermeta table contains the following. From what I see it is missing the role for managing “Importer”.
a:14:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;s:18:”SPF Manage Options”;s:1:”1″;s:17:”SPF Manage Forums”;s:1:”1″;s:22:”SPF Manage User Groups”;s:1:”1″;s:22:”SPF Manage Permissions”;s:1:”1″;s:15:”SPF Manage Tags”;s:1:”1″;s:21:”SPF Manage Components”;s:1:”1″;s:17:”SPF Manage Admins”;s:1:”1″;s:16:”SPF Manage Users”;s:1:”1″;s:19:”SPF Manage Profiles”;s:1:”1″;s:18:”SPF Manage Toolbox”;s:1:”1″;s:24:”SPF Manage Configuration”;s:1:”1″;s:17:”SPF Manage Themes”;s:1:”1″;s:18:”SPF Manage Plugins”;s:1:”1″;}
Could you please check with their support.
As I have already said, the Importer does not require its own capability. Only that you are an SP Admin.
Thank you. Is there any way I can add additional capability to the above block to see if that is the issue?
In terms of SP you have all the capabilities that are defined. And you are a WP Admin. Again I am adrift a little with MS and need Steve to chime in on that one.
By the way I would like to stress one thing. It is WordPress stopping you here not SP. SP has it’s own access messages and this one is pure WP…
I tried the importer on our multisite test install and it works just fine… so a few questions…
did you do network activate of simple press and/or the importer? or just on blog 1? since its blog 1, I assume you were logged in as the super admin? also assume this is on a virgin simple press install… assume wp 3.3+? and sp 5.1.1?
guess the next step would be to see if you can create us a temp wp super admin account (or use yours) and see what is going on ourselves… if that works, please pm the credentials to yellow swordfish and mr papa with a link to this thread so we are sure what its in regards too…
Ok, cool we’re getting there. I had Network Activated the Importer but not Simple Press itself…
Now I can get into the importer, but now I get this error when I try to import:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function sp_forum_ahah_support()
No data comes in after it’s displayed this message multiple times.
Using wordpress 3.4, SMF V2.0.2 & latest version of Simple Press too.
Thanks
Justin
whoops. apologies. looks like the importer is using a deprecated
function from simple press that was removed last version. Andy will get
that fixed up in the AM. but definite progress.
argh. btw, if you want of to fix it yourself, just change the function call to sp_forum_api_support()… but we will get it fixed..
Whoop! Success 🙂
Fantastic… worked a treat… I can now get this forum up and running properly. Never did like SMF 😉
Thank you so much!
