Topic: After renaming WP tables (different prefix), IP addresses not showing as admin

[hightechdad]

I recently renamed my WP database table prefixes (for better security) and since doing that, have not been able to see the IP addresses of my online users. Here is what I have done to troubleshoot:

- completely uninstalled the plug/wp db tables
- did a clean install
- did the tweaks to the wp-useronline.php page as suggested in various threads on the forum

I do not, by the way, have a table called "wp_user_level" in my DB. I would create it but don't know what the fields are (without stepping through the code which I might do).

My admin use is showing as a level 10 in the "usermeta" table.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

What tweaks did you make?

This?
Find:

Code: [Select]

$user_level = intval($current_user->wp_user_level);Replace:

Code: [Select]

$user_level = intval($current_user->lr_user_level);
You can create a row in wp_usermeta table using phpmyadmin.

umeta_id = LEAVE_IT_BLANK
user_id = 1
meta_key = lr_user_level
meta_value = 10

Where lr is your table name.

Ah! That was it. I didn't realize that in the code you needed to change the "wp_user_level" to the new prefix "XXXwp_user_level". I didn't have to change my DB, just made the code change to include the prefix as you outlined.

Thx!
