I am using Ultimate member plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/ultimate-member/

The only issue I can see is that it blocks the admin popups for payment editing. so you cant edit, add or delete a payment. Instead of the popup all you get is a grey bar at the top of the screen

Its not a big deal as I can just disable the plug in for the minute or two it takes to do this. But its one that could be added to the conflict list.

On the other hand if there is something I can do to fix this that would be great. Otherwise I will be looking at other options to Ultimate Member when I have time.

Hi Russell,

We recently had another user report the same issue with Ultimate Member:

https://eventespresso.com/topic/apply-payment-button-shows-a-broken-modal/

We tried removing all Ultimate Member scripts when working on the transactions page but the same happened so I think its adding code directly to the page that casues this (I may be wrong)

Ideally Ultimate Member should not be loading content within pages it has no need to.

Yep that’s it exactly! Sorry I didn’t spot that post myself!

No problem 🙂

I did manage to narrow this down to single filter, although for some reason I can not figure out how to remove the action!

\ultimate-member\admin\core\um-admin-dragdrop.php
add_action(‘admin_footer’, array(&$this, ‘load_field_order’), 9);

Needs to be removed from the admin when visiting the page – ‘event-espresso_page_espresso_transactions’

There should be no reason for Ultimate Member to load scripts and embed code within all pages within the admin, the drag & drop feature that they are including isn’t used on our pages so it could be removed completely from that page.

You could request further details from UM on how to remove that feature if you prefer to use that plugin.

Thanks Tony, I have posted this in UM support as well so fingers crossed!

I have also just found that the embed button from the events screen doesn’t work with UM active. Guess for the same reason

This is interesting. Please let us know what Ultimate Member say.

So no reply from UM yet. I have just tried commenting out the filter in \ultimate-member\admin\core\um-admin-dragdrop.php

Happy to report this fixed both the payments and the embed pop ups.

I cant see any errors in UM ether in admin or front end. I don’t know enough about programming to know for sure if this creates other issues, but it fixes the one I have (for now)

Modifying core files of a plugin isn’t really recommended.

If the plugin is updated the modifications will be lost and it can often have unexpected results elsewhere within the plugin. Although you appear to have tested this and not found any problems as of yet its still not really recommended.

I’m glad its working for you, just something to remember.

Hi Russell, another member that is using Utilmate Member shared a workaround here:
