>> Backup and all role delete, Why ?

[Laurent_C]

Good morning,
I bought User-Role-Editor Pro to add, edit, copy import roles in my multi domain network.
I also use updraftplus, The World’s Most Trusted WordPress Backup Plugin and when I restaure, all role are delete.
Does User role editor Pro use a specific or new db ? If so, what is the db to add In the db to save ?
Thank you Vladimir (if Vladimir answer of course)

Hi,

User Role Editor uses the same DB as WordPress itself does. More, URE does not create/use any custom DB table. URE stores all information at wp_options DB table (db prefix may vary).
Roles are updated in place – the same db record where WordPress stores its own internal roles. So if you lost user roles changes after restore DB from backup – it’s an earlier made backup, or backup made from other site or subsite of this multisite network.

Good morning and thank for your reply
To solve the problem because I spend 3 days to restaure roles site by site in my business network (…. imagine …), is there a way to put roles in one time ?
Import role in all subsite in one time would be perfect because I loose too much time to restaure

Thank you

If you have the same roles at all subsites you can restore roles at the main site of the network 1st, and then replicate roles from the main site to all other subsites – go to the “Network Admin -> Users -> User Role Editor” page and click “Update Network” button.

There is no feature to backup/restore all subsites roles at once currently.

Thank you , I know this tips thank you.
Aout Plugin is really a great plugin.
An update to allow this is a must, do you plain to do it Vladimir ?
If so im ready to pay this function or add-on !

Thank you

[Vladimir]

Thanks for the good feedback.
I plan already to develop/refactor the export/import module:
– allow export/import of single role for single site;
– include to the export/import add-ons data. Currently only roles are exported.
and, thanks for your suggestions, I will add:
– export/import for all/selected subsites at once.
This work will require 1-2 months.

Idea, feeling & work is constructive 🙂
Thank you Vladimir.
