SteveMTNOParticipant
I just replaced the existing contents of the front-end-pm-pro folder with the files from the new zip file. I made a backup on the folder first.
Everything looks good, but all of the existing messages are gone. What do I need to restore to get the old messages back?
SteveMTNOParticipantI only have one site environment – there is no test/stage/prod.
Should I just backup the plugin folder, then install the new version and restore what gets affected?
Are there any template files from 8.3 that won’t work anymore in the new version?
SteveMTNOParticipantAny idea why the error message came up in the first place?
SteveMTNOParticipantIt’s working now.. what was the problem?
SteveMTNOParticipantI just clicked on the link above and this time the extra filed appeared. But the expired license message still appears on the dashboard after saving…
SteveMTNOParticipantThis reply has been marked as private.SteveMTNOParticipantTried that, didn’t make any difference..
SteveMTNOParticipantIt says this at the top of the dashboard:
“You have invalid or expired license key for Front End PM PRO. Please go to Licenses page to correct this issue.”
But when I go to the Licenses page, it has the correct license number displayed.
SteveMTNOParticipantAll I had to do was select the roles to send the announcement to and the emails started to go out. 🙂
SteveMTNOParticipantYou can delete this topic. My mistake…
Sorry for the inconvenience..
SteveMTNOParticipantThat was my bad. I was copying the updated template files to the /templates folder instead of the ?front-end-pm folder of my child theme.. oops! 🙂
It’s working perfectly now.
I think I’ve got just about all of the items above taken care of now. I’m going to mark this issue resolved.
Thank you again for all your help, Shamim!
SteveMTNOParticipantHmmm, that didn’t work.
I also tried it like this (this is how it’s done on newmessage_form.php – line 7):
<h2><?php _e(“Send a Message”, ‘front-end-pm’); ?></h2>
but that didn’t work in directory.php either..
btw – thank you again for all your help!! I really appreciate it!!
SteveMTNOParticipantI bought the Pro version (mainly for the support), but most of what I’m doing right now has been in the “regular” version. Right now, I don’t need the added functionality of the Pro version, altho that may change in the future. Overall, I’m very happy with your plugin.
I’m currently in the process of doing an update on my site and Front End PM is a central part of that update (replacing the existing PM plugin that I was using). In general, I have been able to make all of the styling changes that I want (to make it fit in with the style on the rest of my site), but some of the verbiage changes I want to make are outside the /template folder.
As for the <h2> tags that you can’t find – that’s because they aren’t currently there. I was wanting to add them to make the appearance on those pages consistent with the other pages in the plugin. The other pages have an <h2> header at the top of the page – but the message box, announcement page, and directory page do not.
Thanks for the placeholder code. I’ll give it a try and report back.

SteveMTNOParticipantThis reply has been marked as private.SteveMTNOParticipantHi Shamin,
Here is a list of the changes I’d like to make in my child theme. I figure it’s best to have them all in one place. Hopefully you can help me with these. Thanks in advance!!
