Having problems getting Stripe working.

Joomla: 3.9.4
CiviCRM: 5.11 (is this a problem?)
Stripe extension: 5.3.2
Stripe API: 2019-2-19

Getting this result on the contribute page:

  Failed to create Stripe Customer: Payment Response:  Type:
  invalid_request_error Code: resource_missing Message: No such token:
  Stripe Token

Stripe shows this:

  Request POST body {   "description": "My test name (CiviCRM)",
  "card": "Stripe Token",   "email": "tester@jonssweb.net",
  "metadata": {
      "civicrm_contact_id": "15"   } }

  Response body {   "error": {
      "code": "resource_missing",

      "message": "No such token: Stripe Token",
      "param": "card",
      "type": "invalid_request_error"   } }

I've been scouring the forums for ideas to try and have checked my API keys many, many times.  We have Stripe working fine with Wild Apricot.   Any ideas would be appreciated.  Thank you!

texts: New install, system status says "cron not running" and "timestamp mismatch"

texts:
Running CiviCRM 4.7 on WordPress 4.7.3, hosted on a shared Linux server at 1and1.com. The WordPress site is using PHP 7.0 but apparently the latest version I can use from the command line is 5.5.

Two problems (perhaps related?)

The system status screen says "Cron not running". Cron is running.  I currently have crontab sending me an email every 15 minutes using the cronTest.php file which contains this:

<?php mail('cronuser@gmail.com','Cron Job Test Script',phpversion()); ?>

That is working, sending me the email and reporting PHP version 5.5.38.

I'm also trying to use cli.php to execute the CiviCRM Job, but that doesn't seem to be working.

Here's my whole crontab (with sensitive info changed):

*/15 * * * * /usr/bin/php5.5 /mysharedserver/homepages/34/d11111111/htdocs/cronTest.php
*/15 * * * * /usr/bin/php5.5 /mysharedserver/homepages/34/d11111111/htdocs/mysubdir/wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm/bin/cli.php -s mydomain.org -u cronuser -p cronuserpassword -e Job -a execute

I have also tried wget in crontab without success:

0 * * * * wget -O - -q -t 1 'http://mydomain.org/wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm/bin/cron.php'?name=cronuser&pass=cronuserpassword@&key=mysitekey

I also tried wget with the single quote after the site key.

The timestamp error in CiviCRM system status says:

Timestamps reported by MySQL (eg "2017-04-11 14:58") and PHP (eg "2017-04-11 18:58" ) are mismatched

I have checked the PHP time using date_default_timezone_get() in the folder where WordPress is installed, and using SQL CURTIME() and CURDATE(), the times and dates match -- both show the time and date in New York. I have also created a php.ini in the directory where WordPress is running, with a directive setting the time to America/New York:

date.timezone = "America/New_York"

So CiviCRM must be getting its PHP time somewhere other than in the directory where WordPress is installed? I thought maybe that would be the directory where PHP 5.5 is running, so I tried running the PHP function date_default_timezone_get() in /usr/bin/php5.5 and got:

X-Powered-By: PHP/5.5.38 Content-type: text/html date_default_timezone_set: America/New_York

Using this SQL command:

SELECT @@global.time_zone, @@session.time_zone

I get SYSTEM for both values. I haven't pursued the SQL question any further than that, since the SQL time seems correct (New York time).

I'm looks to me like the PHP time is the problem, but I'm not sure where to go from here.


texts: Cron job fatal error - scheduled emails won't send. AddThis 5.0.7 issue

texts:
I updated AddThis for Wordpress 4.0.7 to AddThis Sharing Buttons 5.0.7 and scheduled emails stopped sending. I determined that the cron job was getting a fatal error.

Job path -  "https://www.xxxxxx.org/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm/bin/cron.php

Fatal error:  Call to a member function getConfigs() on a non-object in /home/xxxxxx/public_html/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/addthis/addthis_addjs_new.php on line 57

Here is a snip from the file that caused the error:

    // We haven't added our JS yet. Or at least better not have.
    $this->_js_added = false;

LINE 57:       $this->_options = $addThisConfigs->getConfigs();

    // Version of AddThis code to use
    $this->atversion = $this->_options['atversion'];

The cron job was referencing a file in our AddThis plugin folder. It seems to me that file and plugin should have nothing to do with sending email from CiviCRM. I am not well versed in how cron jobs work, so any information you can provide would be appreciated. The day that this plugin was updated to the latest version 5.0.7, which included the file shown in the fatal error above, is the day scheduled jobs stopped sending and the cron job started erroring out. I deleted the updated plugin and reinstalled 4.0.7, the known good version, which did not contain that file. Scheduled emails now send.

texts: CiviContribute Thank You Letter not emailed - using CiviDesk SparkPost

texts:
CiviCRM 4.7.22

I am trying to send CiviContribute thank you letters by email using this workflow:

Find Contributions > Actions > Thank-you letters - print or email

Invariably, I get the following error:

  An error occurred when CiviCRM attempted to send an email (via SMTP). If you received this error after submitting on online contribution or event registration - the transaction was completed, but we were unable to send the email receipt.
  The mail library returned the following error message:
  The SparkPost service is unavailable due to a sending error, and the backup mailer is not enabled or not configured.
  This is probably related to a problem in your Outbound Email Settings (Administer CiviCRM » System Settings » Outbound Email), OR the FROM email address specifically configured for your contribution page or event. Possible causes are:
  Your Sendmail path is incorrect.
  Your Sendmail argument is incorrect.
  The FROM Email Address configured for this feature may not be a valid sender based on your email service provider rules.

I am using CiviDesk SparkPost for my emails.  I am able to successfully send transactional and CiviMail emails.  My email address works just fine for these, and it is configured in the FROM email addresses.  I am a site administrator, so full permissions.

Any clues?  Thanks for helping me troubleshoot.

Update: I tested again using this workflow:

Find Contributions > Actions > Email - send now

And the Thank You emails went out without incident.

So it seems to me that my email setup is perfectly fine.  This must be an issue with CiviContribute and the Thank You Letter workflow.


texts: How can I record a partial refund for a membership?

texts:
A user has just renewed their membership, and inadvertently opted for the default amount (60) rather than the correct amount for their particular situation (30). The contribution page offers two price options.

We've actioned the partial refund to address the overpayment, but I need to make a record in CiviCRM of this partial refund.

Right now it looks like the simplest option is to create a new manual contribution record with a negative value, assuming that's do-able, but it's far from ideal. Is there a better way that enables me to keep the membership and the record of the credit card payment already made?

texts: Is "Total Paid" in a report really supposed to show Amount Paid plus fees?

texts:
I am for the first time retrieving payment data for event participants through CiviReports. One of my columns is Total Paid, but for those who registered and paid online, this column shows numbers like "$409.10", which is the amount they paid $400 plus the $9.10. The Net Amount correctly shows $390.90.

I'm thinking this is a bug, but maybe there is another field I should use?

[edited to add:]
I'm very sure this is a bug at this point, and I'll add it to the issues board. I'm running 4.6.8 and I can replicate it on the demo site:

texts: CiviMail Unsubscribe link goes to an empty Wordpress page

texts:
How do I troubleshoot a non-working Unsubscribe link through CiviMail?

In using CiviMail to send a mass mailing, the required Unsubscribe function creates a link like this: http://get-hope-global.org/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/mailing/unsubscribe&reset=1&jid=23&qid=42&h=68396bb3066b85d5

texts: Currency in webform billing items always dollars

texts:
In my installation, under admin/setting/localization, I have enabled multiple currencies. The default is $. The monetary amount display is %c %a.

If I create a new contribution page in CiviCRM, I can choose a currency for that page. I've chosen €. Regardless of the setting, it displays $ in the contribution page edit form, but on the preview and live links in CiviCRM, it shows €.

If I create a webform to use that contribution page, the contribution amount widget shows $. Also, in the webform output, the #wf-crm-billing-items table shows the amount in dollars, see below.

I haven't tested, but I expect it will actually charge € from the webform. I also want it to display €.

I have cleared all sort of caches. Is there a setting I am missing or is this a bug ?

PS - interesting little snippet I can do in the console on that page :

CRM.formatMoney(9.99)
"$ 9.99"
CRM.formatMoney('init', false, '€1,234.56');
undefined
CRM.formatMoney(9.99)
"€9.99"


texts: Why do front end dashboard/profile views create a duplicate Civi contact?

texts:
Civi 4.6.8 on J! 3.4.4

I have synced J! to Civi contacts. J! users can log in to see additional menu options including view Civi contact dashboard and use a profile search form to see other contacts.  For some users - but not all - using these Civi functions creates a new Civi contact with their email address.  First, I can't see why a contact should be created at all simply by viewing; second, I don't understand why this happens for some users and not others. I think they all have the same permissions. Can you advise me where to look to troubleshoot?

Thanks

We transitioned from MailChimp to Mosaico - overall is been okay - but there is a report we were asked to generate that I can't seem to figure out.

Somewhat related: How many new subscriptions (added to group) since last mailing to group. (I can do the math - but it would be nice if it was a report so I can have it on their dashboards.)

I'm trying to code a custom search (CiviCRM 4.7.11 - WordPress)  and I keep getting

 Unknown column 'contact_a.id' in 'field list'

I built the search by civix as per docs and that created a contact search by default

I stripped out the form code and have even simplified it all the way down to one column

The meat being as follows and should just list hello thousands of times

function &columns() {

   $columns = array(
  ts('Hello') => 'hool',
);
 return $columns;
}

*/
function all($offset = 0, $rowcount = 0, $sort = NULL, $includeContactIDs = FALSE, $justIDs = FALSE) {
// delegate to $this->sql(), $this->select(), $this->from(), $this->where(), etc.
return $this->sql($this->select(), $offset, $rowcount, $sort, $includeContactIDs, NULL);
}

/**

 function select() {
   return ' "hello" hool';

function from() {
   return "FROM civicrm_contact";
}

/**

function where($includeContactIDs = FALSE) {
 return "1";
}

But I get

I don't understand what is trying to create the SELECT count(distinct contact_a.id) as total  with an invalid column and how to stop it?

texts: CiviMail tokens to share the public mailing URL on social media

texts:
As a site admin using CiviMail/Mosaico, is there an easy way to add links to share the mailing content on social media?
I am guessing I could write HTML using a link such as:
http://twitter.com/share?text={mailing.subject-if-it-exists}&url={mailing.viewUrl}

and then also the equivalents for Facebook etc.
Are there extensions that already do this in a more user-friendly way? (I will write an extension otherwise, feedback welcome)

texts:
I have a list of 36 contacts. When printing labels using Primary address it only prints the first 14 (first based on contact ID number, not alphabetically). When printing labels using Home address it prints all of them. All contacts have home addresses, all set to primary. Nobody has any contact restrictions. An export from the address table showed no commonalities between those that did or did not print other than the order of their contact ID number. This problem seems to be new/unique to 4.7.23 (Drupal) as far as we know (ie we didn't notice it happening before). The 4.7.25 sandbox does not seem to have this same quirk.

Summary question: What would cause Civi to print labels for only a subset of valid, mailable addresses?

Where are these settings actually used? I changed the date format for both of these, cleared CiviCRM's caches, and headed over to the contact summary, expecting to see the new date formats on the Activities and Contributions tabs. Instead, I found no change at all.

texts:
Our organization hosts events and has memberships individuals sign up for on our website. If someone signs up for a membership or registers for an event online they have two options for payment. They can choose to "pay now" on the registration page or they can choose "invoice me". We do not currently utilize the invoice feature in Civi. Instead we have our accounting department send an invoice to the requesting party. We would like to begin using Civi Invoice. However, we noticed there is no online payment functionality (i.e. payment link) in the link or email.

Is this something we would need to enable or is there a plug in that would allow us to send invoices that contain a payment link in the invoice or email? If not, does anyone have a work around process for allowing members to pay for membership online via an invoice.

So for example I want that regular contact will be able to see only their own (created by and registered) events while the Volunteers will be able to all the events in the system.
This is mean that I have also to provide permissions for all authenticated users in Drupal? or the ACLs in CiviCRM is enough?
I tried to do that with the CiviACLs but for now without any success.
BTW, I'm using the drupal/civi with rest API calls from JS client.

texts: CiviEvent Confirmation Email causes Time-Out

texts:
I'm using wordpress 5.11 and CiviCRM 5.8.2.
I am trying to get a CiviEvent to send confirmation emails but when I select the confirmation emails, the session times-out for the user (error 504).  The registration does go through, but no email is sent.

Some observations, turning off the confirmation email works.  Registration completes and it goes to the completion page.

I can go into Find Participants, Edit their payment and send a confirmation email from there and it works.

I'm configured to use CiviSMTP as my email host.  I have no issues sending out bulk emails or day to day processing emails like renewal notices.

I have checked the logs and there is nothing reported.

I found a similar post here that suggested modifying/adding session.saved_path=/my/temp/dir which I put in as displayed here.  I'm not certain that is the correct format.  As displayed it made no difference.  The 504 Timeout is consistent and happens every time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated - this is a big event and it opens on Friday so I would really like to have this working by then.  I don't really want to have to do manual confirmation emails!

Thanks

I am using CiviCRM 4.7.21, on Drupal 7.56.
I am attempting to send a monthly mail-out.  If I choose last month's mail-out and click the "re-use" button, I get a blank screen:

If I go to mailings->draft, my new mailing is listed there.  If I then click "continue", it goes to the same blank screen.  If I try using mailings->new mailing, again the same blank screen, and a new draft mailing that I can't edit.
This problem seems to have come up since I updated from 4.7.20 to 4.7.21 (updated 2 weeks ago, but this is the first new mailing we're trying to create since then).
If more information is needed in order to reply, please tell me how/where to find it.

thanks,
CMD

texts: Can any New Zealand-based NFPs share their CiviCRM experiences?

texts:
In the absence of a "users" mailing list where I would normally post this, I'm based in New Zealand, and I'm looking for New Zealand-based end-users or administrators of CiviCRM happy to share some experiences off-list about how well (or not) it's working. I am absolutely not interested in talking to any vendors or consultants, only folks who are actually using and supporting it in house (either hosted on on-premises).

Ideally your organisation would be at the medium end of the size scale (at least in NZ terms). Any experiences at all though would be welcome appreciated.

If any folks out there are keen please let me know.

Cheers,
Dave

texts: Adding contributions doesn't work for certain currencies

texts:
I noticed importing or adding contributions in Serbian dinars (RSD) doesn't work. I tried using API Explorer to create a contribution that way but I get the same error I get when I try to import contributions.

{"sequential":1,"financial_type_id":"Donation","total_amount":100,"contact_id":2,"currency":"RSD"}

  "error_message": "Currency not a valid code: "

I then tried to find out are there other currencies that don't work and I tried importing a file with donations in all currencies in the civicrm_currency table. It turns out that there three more currencies which don't work.

The currencies affected are:

Serbian Dinar (RSD)
Venezuela Bolivar (VEF)
Azerbaijanian Manat (AZN)
Mozambique Metical (MZN)

When I try to add a contribution manually through the form using these currencies, CiviCRM disregards my selection and uses the default currency.

There is a workaround. You can set any of these affected currencies as default, and then leave the field for currencies blank for that currency when importing (or leave default when adding a contribution manually). CiviCRM will then assume you are using a default currency and import or add it correctly. Still there's a problem if you want to use other currency for default (USD for example) and add contributions in affected currencies.

What could be causing this?

I'm using the current version of CiviCRM (4.7.29)

texts: Can you use VBO to update activities on cases?

texts:
I'd like to be able to bulk update the status of activities (that happen to be on a case) from a view.
I can get the status to update but the problem is it loses the Case ID along the way. For example, prior to updating the activity, say it was connected to case 1234. After I run the Bulk Update to change the status of the activity, it sets the case number to 1.
Any idea how to overcome this? (I'm in Drupal 7.)
Update: When I add the CiviCRM Activities: Case ID field to the view I get an error:
SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'civicrm_activity.case_id' in 'field list'
The field should be civicrm_case_activity.case_id but I can't find in the code of CiviCRMEntity where to make that change.


texts: Membership report showing different status than membership dashboard

texts:
We customised the names of the membership status rules to better suit our needs.  For example in the membership status rules screen, 'New' was changed to 'New Members' and 'Current' was changed to 'Paid Up.

On the membership dashboard, the revised names for membership status rules show up correctly.  However, when I run membership reports, it's still showing the original names of 'New' and 'Current' in the Membership Status column.  I've run Update Membership Statuses but no change in any of the membership reports.  Am I missing something here?

Thanking you for your time.

texts:
We have 2 relationship types : A and B. We have about 500 contacts with A-relationships already set, and for each we need to create a B-relationship with the same contact. For example :

We already have :

Bob -> A -> Alice

We need to have :

Bob -> A -> Alice

Bob -> B -> Alice

It could be done manually but I thought I could write a custom cron job which does this :

loop over contacts in a particular group (we already have this group)
for each contact with a B-relationship and without a A-relationship :

grab the A-relationship target contact (let's call him C)

create a B-relationship with C

end for each

How can I write a custom cron job for CiviCRM ? Is this a good idea ? Is there a better way to achieve this ?

Thanks

texts: How to log by hours instead of minutes in CiviVolunteer

texts:
Using CiviVolunteer Version 4.7.31-2.3.1 / CiviCRM 4.7.31

"Log Hours" and "Volunteer Report" have Duration in minutes instead of hours.

Is there a way to change to "Hours" instead? I tried Administer "Word Replacements" with the below but it doesn't seem to change all the instances.  The Reporting especially is still showing a label of minutes.

minutes / hours / exact match
  Minutes / Hours / exact match

I want to avoid volunteers getting confused by the difference in language, and volunteering is set by hours only, not minutes. Also for Reporting the managers want to see hours.

texts: Proximity search doesn't always work for towns

texts:
I'm noticing that the proximity search doesn't seem to work quite as well on towns as it does for postcodes.

I've seen this behaviour sporadically. For some contacts it's not an issue, for others it is.

For instance, if I do a search for 30km around Chester it won't find a person who's in Chester, but will find them if I search for postcode CH2.

In this case, the contact's address is simply 'Chester, Cheshire, UK', with no postcode supplied. Nevertheless, the Map icon in their contact record is successfully placing them in the middle of Chester.

The same occurs for other contacts with the same non-specific Chester address.

However, it doesn't occur for other contacts with similar address formats if they are in nearby towns. For instance, people with addresses such as 'Liverpool, Merseyside, UK' are found by the above search.

Having said that, if I then do a search for 30 km around Liverpool, I do get correct results!

We are using Google as our Geocode provider, Civi 5.3.1, Drupal 7.58.

Could it be that the Proximity search fails if the distance from certain towns is zero? And works for other towns? Or something else?

Does anyone have a suggestion where I should look to fix this? Or is it a known issue with the proximity search?

Thanks!

texts: CiviMail does not use the editor set in 'Display Preferences'

texts:
I'm on 5.17.4 on drupal8 and civimail is working, html editing and all. But I don't know why. CKeditor loads and it's clearly not the drupal one (minimal), but it also doesn't fully match the editor config under Display Preferences. There are no console, server or civi log errors. It does take part of the preferences into account though; I can break the editor by choosing a skin or plugin that's not available.

The pressing problem is that the toolbar does not contain the link buttons and there appears to be filtering involved, so even in the source view, adding anchor elements manually, eventually just filters them out, replacing them with the tag's content. So no way to add html links.

So where is this third config coming from? Would this be the default CKEditor ships with and is somehow used instead of the civi provided one? What are the expected lookup paths?

EDIT: I can even use 'CKEditorCustomConfig' => "adasdada" in Resources.php and it changes nothing. I also tried hacking away what I found of ACF code in the drupal plugin part of CKEditor, but that didn't have an effect either.

texts: Is there a Notification Setting associated with "potential" Duplicates

texts: New to CiviCRM and learning the ropes. I know how to search for duplicates and merge them but wondering if when CiviCRM finds a potential duplicate on its own is there a setting where I can be notified by email or within CiviCRM when I log in to the Dashboard where a "cache" of potential dups is waiting for me to inspect?

How do you fix this? I looked at the CiviCRM demo and the same issue is happening. Is this a bug? or is it just me? This is a screenshot of the html on the Contribution Dashboard page, the second receive is suppose to be Thank you date.


texts: What are the Attributes for the Reserved DeDupe Rules

texts:
The reserved dedupe rules don't tell us what they are doing behind the seens. The name and email (reserved) rule says:

  This reserved rule is pre-configured with matching fields to optimize
  dedupe scanning performance. It matches on:

  Email
  First Name
  Last Name

But it doesn't reveal the length, weight or threshold?

I'm kind of assuming that all three have to match exactly for civi to not create a duplicate record (unservised) or for it to not pop-up a duplicate warning (supervised).

Am I correct?

Thanks

The result is that it is very easy to miss those errors to which Jenkins objects. Does anyone know how to solve this?


texts: How can I deal with a missing or corrupt binary ("advanced") log table?

texts:
Sometimes I install an extension that creates a new MySQL table, but it breaks because I have binary ("advanced") logging enabled. CiviCRM tries to write to the binary log, and it fails because the table doesn't exist.

Other times, there's a corrupt binary log table, which I can only fix by dropping it.

In these situations, I know that disabling and re-enabling binary logging will fix the situation, but then I lose my existing logs!  Is there another less destructive solution?

On my Joomla install, confirmed on sandbox:

I go to Administer->System Settings->Option Groups then scrolling down to Custom Search and click Options.  I try to edit an existing option or add a new one.  When I click Save, I get the error "Value is a required field."

I assume the form should display the Value field as many other forms do.  Or if it's not meant to be user editable, it should be a hidden field and submit invisibly with the rest of the form.

I can work around this with direct sql queries as described at http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Create+a+Custom-Search+Extension

texts: Dequeue Backbone from theme load and load CiviCRM Backbone

texts:
I've got a WordPress theme that's giving me issues with the Backbone JS module.  According to https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-17352, it's because CiviCRM isn't running Backbone in no_conflict mode.  Unfortunately, I'm not familiar enough with all of this to figure out where the no_conflict() call would be placed in the code.

According to Backbone isn't loading on Civi 4.6.11/WP 4.4.1, Andrew West suggests dequeue-ing the theme's loading of Backbone, and enqueue-ing the CiviCRM backbone.  I get the concept, understand how to limit the if statement to the civicrm base page, and already have the child theme, but I'm unclear of how I tell it to enqueue the specific version of Backbone for CiviCRM?

EDIT:  Adding var Backbone = Backbone.noConflict() to wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm/packages/backbone/backbone.js blows up in an impressive array of 15 errors on the Manage Online Event page, with Backbone Undefined.  Scary thing is that it seemed to render more of the page, but still not correct.


texts: Relationships not available on household imports

texts:
We have an import that we do a few times a year that I set up about 2 years ago.  Until today, it's never had an issue.  We are using v4.6.3, and the last time we did it we were using a 4.5.x version.

When importing households, we have some custom relationships defined.  They are Individual to Household relationships. These relationships do not show up in the selector for the mapping the imported data.  Some relationships DO show up; Household member and Head of Household, plus two other relationships in which contact a type is not set.

The relationships that don't show up are useable in all other contexts that I have tried.  They are enabled.  I have gone so far as to compare the relationship type records in mysql and I see no obvious issues.

I've also searched the Jira to see if there's a known issue but I don't see any.

Suggestions?


texts:
I use Drupal 7.43 with CiviCRM 4.7.2. My task is to create a little form for ordering items. It is just one single item which can be ordered and the payment can be done later on via bank transfer.

I only need to track how many of these items get ordered (up to 10) in each transaction by a (most of the time) newly added contact. Both, the person who did order the item(s) and the web page owner should receive an email after sending the form.

I want to offer a sum in the email since there will be a delivery fee too.

So far I figured I should use a CiviCRM profile. It was easy to create a custom field for the amount of items. But I shouldn't attach this custom field to contacts since contacts should be able to make as many orders as they want and new orders shouldn't overwrite older orders. I don't understand how I can collect order details independent from contacts within CiviCRM. Of course all orders should have a unique ID.

In addition to that I don't get where I am supposed to do the actual calculation for the sum.

Do you know any guide I could follow? Fully fetched shop systems clearly would be much more than I need. I want to keep it as simple as possible.

Or should I work with Drupal contacts instead? I do use CiviCRM mainly for its comfortable mass mailing capabilities.

Our process now is to import the contacts without activities then exporting them to get the Contact ID then importing activities with the Contact ID that was assigned in the initial contact import.  Is it possible to import new contacts with activities so that we can avoid the export and second import step?

I'm trying to save time and possibly automate this process.
We have to do the whole import, export, import thing a few times as different groups and activities are specific to each source we pull from.

Any tips or tricks are greatly appreciated.

Thanks


texts: Can I apply a CiviDscount discount when embedding a contribution page in a WordPress page?

texts:
It took me a while, but I figured out how to get CiviDiscount to work when providing the link directly to the contribution page, however I'm trying to use a shortcode to embed the CiviCRM contribution page into a WordPress page.

The generated shortcode looks like this:

[civicrm component="contribution" id="2" mode="live" hijack="0"]

I modified it to look like this:

[civicrm component="contribution" id="2" mode="live" discount="pkpwpabs7" hijack="0"]

I took a guess, but my guess was wrong. Is there a way to do this?


texts: How to decide between using a custom Relationship and using a custom Contact Reference field?

texts:
This is admittedly open-ended any may just depend too much on use-case. I am looking for advice on when it is preferable to create a custom Contact Reference field instead of just creating a custom relationship.

If you have an example of a situation where you chose one over the other, that would be helpful.


texts: What could be causing Wordpress to create user accounts for members?

texts:
We are running CiviCRM 5.13.4 on the lastest version of Wordpress.  We have just moved over to Wordpress, so by rights there shouldn't be many Wordpress users registered.

We have CiviCRM Wordpress Member Sync installed.  We have two types of membership - Full, and Associate. Wordpress Member Sync is setup to change the role on any matching user to either 'Full Member' or 'Associate Member'.

It is not set to "Create WordPress Users - Create a WordPress User for each Membership when one does not already exist."

However, bit by bit the number of users in our Wordpress system is climbing - and it's only members who are having accounts mysteriously auto-created. Yesterday there were 180 members with user accounts, today 227.

We can't think of anything we're doing that would trigger these accounts to be created, and as every account has some sort of membership attached to it we can only think that the culprit is something buggy in CiviCRM Wordpress Member Sync, but could it be anything else?


texts:
I seem to be regularly running into problems with file permissions running on WordPress. The two specific examples are that image browsing and upload didn't work in KCEditor (due to permissions for KCFinder) and the tracked links in bulk mailings were failing. In both cases I got 500 errors from the browser. I found that I needed to change directory permissions to 755 from 775 and file permissions from 664 to 664 in appropriate places. It seems rather random whether directory/file permissions are 775/664 or 755/644.

I think this is due to the way my hosting provider sets up WordPress and does not allow 775/664 permissions and from what I read this will be a common situation with hosting providers that use suexec.

Changing file permissions manually is a work around, but tedious and unreliable. I may be missing some and things not working properly because of this, but not being so obvious. And when it comes to an upgrade I'll have to go through it all again.

Is there a reason why the WordPress CiviCRM is distributed with these file permissions? Is there a reason for the variation in file permissions (and what is the logic)?

If this can't be changed in the distribution, can I safely change all 775 to 755 and all 664 to 644 and how might I do this?

I don't think the versions are relevant, but this applies to CiviCRM 4.7.24 and WordPress 4.9 and also other recent versions earlier this year. The hosting provider is SiteGround.


texts: How can I automatically redirect anonymous users to a login page?

texts:
I'm using WordPress. I'm setting up various directory pages for registered users at URLs like mysite.org/directory. If a user is not logged in and navigates to that address they'll get:

This message is not useful to users. I would like instead for something like an automatic redirect of anonymous visitors to wp-login.php. Or failing that, simply change the link "Return to home page" with a link to the user login page.

More Info: Using a plugin to restrict access to profiles to logged-in users does not work as the Civi error overrides any page permissions. This is true regardless of the hijack content option.

Also checked out the page redirect extention but it doesn't appear to be for WP.

texts: Advanced Search/Smart Group returning wrong results based on participant role (CiviEvent participant roles overlap?)

texts:
We have a number of participant roles setup in CiviEvent, with IDs ranging from 1-10.  This includes a "Participant" role with ID 1 and "Sponsor" role with ID of 10 (and various roles with IDs 2-9 in between).  The Sponsor role is not counted, all other roles are counted.

When I run a search for contacts with the only criteria being Participant Role = Sponsor, I get the one contact currently assigned to that role.

When I run a search for contacts with the only criteria being Participant Role = Participant, I get all of the contacts assigned to that role, PLUS the contact who has the role Sponsor on one event.

I have triple checked and the "Sponsor" contact only has one event and his only role in that event is Sponsor.  He should not be showing up for the search where the only role selected is Participant.

The only thing I can think of is that the search criteria is erroneously returning any ID with "1" in it?

Any other thoughts or ideas?

texts: Pre-fill custom field value on advanced contact search form

texts:
I have a custom field that I want to be searched when a user chooses a custom quicksearch option. I have the autocomplete working with the custom quicksearch option, but I want the behavior of pressing enter to act like the default quicksearch options where the advanced contact search form loads with the user's entered quicksearch text driving the results.

I am currently trying without success to use the buildForm hook to set my custom field value. The issue is that the presence of a default value for a custom field is apparently not enough to cause the additional sql to run which includes the custom fields' joins. I saw that the queryObjects hook might could be of assistance, but I was hoping there was a core BAO query or method that could be invoked to add the necessary joins into the advanced search query which would then work with my custom fields default value.

Does anyone know a way to use buildForm or another hook to programmatically modify the search criteria based on a custom field?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

texts: CiviEvent 4.7.7 Issue with Repeating Event

texts:
I cannot find any reference to this issue in 4.7.7 mentioned here. My "Repeat Event" tab appears different than in test - with additional options.

Situation: As expected, there should be an enforced error check between radio buttons "Repeat On" and "Repeat By". Repeat On is once a week or once a month or year, or whatever day you select. Repeat By could be the 1st of each month, the First Sunday of every month, etc. The two options (Repeat On and Repeat By) are mutually exclusive.

HOWEVER - the error check is looking at the two options within "Repeat By" and ignoring the fact that Repeat On is selected. It throws the error that I must select one option (see attached pic) in what appears to be the Repeat By section.

There is not an option in Repeats By for "Every" - only specified regular intervals excluding weekly. Options are First, Second, Third, Fourth, Last. No option for EVERY.

FURTHER - when I select "Repeat By" and hit Save, despite what appears to be a successful save, IT IS NOT SAVED. No errors. No repeating event confirmation. And the tab is cleared

The behavior I expect is that I can select Repeat Every 1 Week Repeats On Sunday Ends On or After.

Or am I missing something?

Thanks


texts: I want to Coordinate civiCRM mailing list and SimpleNews Mailing list

texts:
I send mailings two ways: via civiCRM newsletters and via SimpleNews newsletters. The problem is that I then have two different email lists, one in civiCRM and one in Drupal for SimpleNews. If users want to stop receiving emails, they have to unsubscribe twice. I would like people to be able to unsubscribe from either list, and be removed from both. So there are two parts to this: (1) on unsubscribe from SimpleNews, remove from civiCRM mailing list, and (2) on unsubscribe from civiCRM mailing list, remove from SimpleNews mailing list.

For (1), I was trying to create this rule: When an email is unsubscribed from SimpleNews (Action), then the email is also removed from civicrm group (Event). But I receive an error message: Data selector site:current-user:roles: for parameter contact is invalid. What should the data selector be? The only one that comes up as an option is "site:current-user:roles"

For (2), I have no idea how to do this. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Final Note: What I am trying to do may not be possible without using some third party such as MailChimp to coordinate email lists.


texts: How do I access the JavaScript API via a WordPress theme template?

texts:
I've taken a look at the docs here under "Use on Non-CiviCRM Pages" but I'm coming up empty when trying to access the CRM object via JavaScript.

http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Javascript+Reference#JavascriptReference-UseonNon-CiviCRMPages

In functions.php I've tried this:

civicrm_initialize();
$manager = CRM_Core_Resources::singleton();
$manager->addCoreResources();
$manager->addScriptUrl(path-to-ajax.js);  // looking around through the available scripts this seemed the obvious candiate

I can get it to load scripts via wp_enqueue_script, but I have no idea which scripts it needs. The docs appear to suggest that it should just magically load everything into the header but that isn't the case for me. The CRM object is never defined.

What I want to do is grab the event list in JSON format.

Any clues? What am I missing?

Before installing I checked with my hosting provider that I had all the other specs listed on the page to install and their support person confirmed that I did, fwiw.

I downloaded the CiviCRM folder, then uploaded it via sftp into the wordpress plugins folder, after changing the permissions for that folder. I tried both writeable and executable permissions.

When I log in to my wordpress site with my administrator credentials CiviCRM does not appear in the plugins directory anywhere, or in the plugins editor dashboard.

texts: possible bug: when using External ID as matching method, imported contributions can get matched to contacts in the trash--would expect error instead

texts:
I have a client whose accounting team has run into the following issue (admittedly an edge case but causes a lot of confusion and troubleshooting time for the team so we want to fix). Following the bug reporting instructions I have replicated this in two demo instances (dmaster and wpmaster) and now want to know if anyone else has experienced this. Here are the conditions/steps. To your knowledge is this a known issue?

The import matches contributions to contact by External ID
A given contact has been de-duped and the External ID needed for correct contribution matching has been overwritten by a different External ID
The contact record with the correct External ID is in the trash
The contribution import runs without throwing any error message
The contribution does not appear in the contact record because its External ID does not match, and it DOES appear on the contact record that is in the trash (soft delete).

To summarize: When contributions are imported matching to External ID, expected behavior to get an error message and failed import line if I import a contribution that matches to a contact that is soft-deleted. Instead I get no error message and a successful import matched to a soft-deleted contact.
System info: The client is running Civi 5.31.0 on WP 5.5.3 but since I replicated on dmaster and wpmaster that seems less relevant.
Other relevant info: When using other methods of matching to a contact, the system behaves as expected (i.e., gives an error message and does not import the contribution):

Email address as matching method gives "No matching Contact found for ([EMAIL ADDRESS])"
Contact ID as matching method gives "Invalid Contact ID: contact_id 204 is a soft-deleted contact."


texts: In CiviCRM Event Paypal payment not reflecting multiple participants

texts:
In CiviCRM - We have an event with multiple participants.

texts: Why do I get `(Object) CRM_Contact_Page_DashBoard` at ~/dashboard?

texts:
I'm running Civi 5.19.alpha1 locally, installed using buildkit with drupal-clean on my laptop running Ubuntu 19.04.

So I just manually installed or updated a bunch of Drupal modules (I started off just wanting to install webform-civicrm and ran down the rabbit hole of other required modules).

I now see only (Object) CRM_Contact_Page_DashBoard at http://localhost:7979/civicrm/dashboard.

I also see this message at http://localhost:7979/:

hook_civicrm_pageRun called. This hook is called before a CiviCRM page is rendered. Note that this does not execute on every CiviCRM page in the general sense. CiviCRM's pages are classified as either 'Forms' or 'Pages', and this only runs on pages classified as 'Pages'. If you are not sure if a particular page is a Page, test it by adding some temporary debug code to /CRM/Utils/Hook.php

I've run drush updb and get No database updates required,  drush cvupcfg and get Config successfully updated.

Been Googling around, looked in Civi docs, checked StackExchange, not figured out the problem yet.

I could and maybe just should go back and uninstall/delete the modules I just installed, of course, but prefer to not have to re-install later.

UPDATE: see the answer below. I had enabled the Drupal civicrm_developer and Devel modules, though of course, I did not have to, to enable the webform_civicrm_integration module. I was enabling other Drupal modules that looked useful.

I have tried reading on setting up a cron job and managing Scheduled Jobs but can not really understand. I am running CiviCRM 4.6.3 and Drupal 7. I have admin privileges and can access command line if need be.


texts: Custom API not recognized by explorer/cv

texts:
I'm troubleshooting an issue where some custom APIs (v3) via an extension are not recognized by the site, either in the API explorer or when attempting to run them via cv. The situation is puzzling:

the extension has multiple APIs, some of which are recognized and working
the working/non-working APIs are structurally identical (except for the different action value). in other words, the file location and functions have a matching structure (they use the same entity value).
I tried creating some test APIs via civix directly on the server, and they are not recognized
What's more confusing is that the APIs do show up when I install the extension on another site. So site A registers some of the APIs; site B registers all of them. Identical code, and nothing particularly odd about the server environments.

I've checked the obvious -- cleared caches, etc. For some inexplicable reason, some APIs are recognized, others are not. Any suggestions on further troubleshooting?


texts: CiviMember permission issue on net new Wordpress install

texts:
I am working with a test installation of CiviCRM 5.33.0 on Wordpress 5.6 on a local Debian 10 install, MariaDB database.  Vanilla Wordpress, no additional plugins other than CiviCRM.  Configuration checklist is clear, showing no errors.  I have successfully imported 4200 sanitized Contacts with no issues.  Now looking at Memberships.  Membership Dashboard shows a blank page with only the title, nothing else.  New Member gives the "You do not have all the permissions needed for this page" error.  There is exactly one user in Wordpress, my admin user login, and I have explicitly enabled the Member permissions.  I have looked through similar cases listed on StackExchange and while I see things that are similar I do not see any particular "fix".  Can anyone point me in the proper direction?  I see there are two minor updates available for CiviCRM but I don't want to complicate things further by applying them unless so instructed.
All other enabled modules appear to be functional, it is only Memberships that is causing me grief.  Any guidance would be appreciated.


texts: CiviEvent - Unable to select profiles - get 'custom field is not assigned to the event' warning even though no profile selected

texts:
Possibly since the last versions of 4.6 but certainly in 4.7 we're unable to select any profiles for the online registration screen for events. Even for a new event we get the "The selected profile is using a custom field which is not assigned to the "Event" being configured" warning, and we can see only two profiles (Discount Codes and End Dates) - we get this warning even though at this stage we haven't picked any profile.

This is Joomla 3.4.8 and Civi 4.7.1. It's a default Joomla template and I've removed all Civi extensions for the moment. I'm accessing as a SuperUser so it isn't a permissions thing.

Unfortunately the demo server is running Civi 4.6 so I can't try to replicate the issue there.

Any suggestions where I should look?


texts: Schedule Reminder executed but no email sent out

texts:
I had a scheduled email reminder, which will trigger reminder email when it is 2 week(s) before Membership End Date. Repetition is enabled, to repeat every 1 hour until 1 day after Membership End Date.

"Send email" option is checked, with email subject and content.

When I execute this schedule reminder, it runs and below message is shown in job log:

Summary
Finished execution of Send Scheduled Reminders with result: Success (1)
Details

Parameters parsed (and passed to API method):
a:1:{s:7:"version";i:3;}

Full message:
Finished execution of Send Scheduled Reminders with result: Success (1)

No email is triggered for my test account, which will expire in 3 days.

However, other scheduled job (mail_report) is able to send out email.

I'm not sure what's wrong. Any idea to figure this out?

I'm using CiviCRM 4.4.6 in drupal 7.


texts: Activitiy's email content - how is it generated and can it be changed?

texts:
When assigning an activity in CiviCRM to a contact using the field "Assigned to". Unless deactivated those contacts get send an email.

My question is, how this email is generated - is there a template somewhere? Or any other way teh email could be changed?


texts:
I have a contribution page set up for users to sign up for memberships. There are several ways in which the presentation could be better. To give some examples:

Users have the option of contributing in addition to membership. This
is currently labeled "additional contribution" and I would like to
change the title to reflect the fund they are contributing to.
Users have the option for auto-renewal. This auto-renewal box is currently under the "additional contribution" which makes it appear to the user that they will be billed the additional amount each month as well. I'd like to moveh te box to make it clearer.
We are using CiviDiscount, and I'd like to change the placement on the page and the language used for this as well.

Is all this customization something that can be done? How would you go about it? I'm in Drupal 7, and if there's a way to do this in webform I'm happy to, but I'm not sure how to include the discounts...thoughts?
