Settings keeps reverting back to default variables

[JoshWho]

Just test this feature

on a couple accounts, After changing the sub count for a test I change the view count of a video and that caused everything to reset to default settings.

I had to select my Avideo Custom Player again, re add back my cdn url, and still going through other things, trying to remember my custom css I had.

This really sucks

i don't even know what all got reset yet.

[JoshWho]

Why is there not a way to harden those settings to where it is read only or something?

[DanielnetoDotCom]

Josh, I do not see how all can be reset

I must be able to reproduce it to help you.

[JoshWho]

All you have to do is select a account that already has videos uploaded, give it 500k subs and click save. Now go to one of the channels videos and edit the view count. Tell me what it does.

Causes some kind of error and reverts everything to default

[DanielnetoDotCom]

what do you mean "give it 500k subs and click save"?

[JoshWho]

500000 subscribers https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/39392449/212324612-64229a74-e511-4c05-bffb-4303d87461ff.png

[DanielnetoDotCom]

I still do not understand what you mean.

can you please record a video?

[JoshWho]

Add 500000 subscribers to the account

Now go to that same channel and select a video and change the view count of it. After you click save, look to see if those subscribers that you just added are still there.

[DanielnetoDotCom]

Hi, you first said the issue is that reset all the plugins.

the problem is the subscribers count or the plugin's parameters?

[JoshWho]

That is the bi product. It resets everything back to default

[JoshWho]

Hi, you first said the issue is that reset all the plugins.

They are related. If done in that order i stated it resets everything.

[JoshWho]

Did u see what I am talking about when you do those steps?

[JoshWho]

All my settings got reset again today something is not right.,

[JoshWho]

What the helll did u try it on my site? Why is every back reset again now I have to fix it all again. 3 rd time

[JoshWho]

All my Customize Usersettings and Custom advanced settings are back to default info. All the settings I had including my encoder network url cdn url everything is all reset. This has to be HARDENED to READ ONLY that way it will never get changed ever again.

I don't even want to start putting anything back until I know for sure this will never happen again, because this is the 3rd time today now I have to add all my settings back.

[JoshWho]

When I save something it should be set in stone. This is crazy this still happens. Why can't these option be made to read only so it never goes back to default?????

[JoshWho]

Every time this glitch happens I have to change back

Confirm Email has to be re enabled Only Confirm EMail can Comment Only Confirm Email can upload CDN url Disabled Channel Home Tab Customize User setting Password Salt Re enabled Encoder Network URL Video CDN URL User Permissions have to re add back all the people I had as moderators. Player Skin changes My Custom setting for Checkmark1HTML keep s going back to default checkmark and not the checkmark circle I keep setting it for.. TimeZone had to fix Re enable Donation links Have to now re verify all the accounts I already gave checkmarks too.

Now when you click the Subscribers button it does this because my custom css is all deleted

This is getting ridiculous. All these settings need to be hardened and made read only

[JoshWho]

Ok well it just keeps getting reset even when I do not do anything. Everything just got defaulted again!!!!!! 4th time it reset today

[JoshWho]

@DanielnetoDotCom

[JoshWho]

Even the Custom advance upload menu is not reflecting what I have in the fields

[DanielnetoDotCom]

Hi good morning, I am testing it locally here now.

[JoshWho]

Even the Custom advance upload menu is not reflecting what I have in the fields

This last part just started reflecting. Might have been cache but the other issues are still there

[DanielnetoDotCom]

Just tested and I could reproduce the issue, thanks.

I could only confirm that the channels added count reset but not the plugin parameters. I am working on it and I will release a fix soon

regarding the plugin parameters, does this happen in all plugins or only in a specific plugin?

[JoshWho]

In all plugins some times Mostly Customize Advance

[DanielnetoDotCom]

This update resolves the channel count issue.

can you please check?

I am still not able to resolve the issue in the plugin's parameters.

[JoshWho]

checking now

[DanielnetoDotCom]

The second update will log any change made in the plugin's database. so we will be able to know who is changing what

[JoshWho]

I forgot. It deleted something you gave me to put in the footer code in Customize advance that makes the footer stay hidden in frame So I can't test this until I can get the the footer to hide there.

[JoshWho]

What was it that stopped the footer from doing that?

[DanielnetoDotCom]

Not sure. try to hide the footer if the screen is small like ...

@media (max-width: 767px) {
    footer{
        display:  none !important;
    }
}

im giving this a try

Worked perfect with the footer.

[JoshWho]

This update resolves the channel count issue.

This did the fix for the numbers changing. THank you.

[JoshWho]

I will keep this open for if or when it happens today.

[DanielnetoDotCom]

ok, once this happens check your logs for something like "Plugin updated"

will be some info about what happen

[JoshWho]

ok will do, thank you

[JoshWho]

Site under attack looked like this when it was viewable

[JoshWho]

It is like somehow they are knocking the settings off on everything and all the default stuff replaces it.

[JoshWho]

My settings are all changed again @DanielnetoDotCom

[DanielnetoDotCom]

I will check your logs now

[DanielnetoDotCom]

Hi, sorry I did not see the error. and looks like you did not make the git pull on my last update that catches the plugin's table modification.

I just updated your site and please setup again and let me know if the plugins configuration changes again

[DanielnetoDotCom]

to save your time you should MySQL dump the plugin's table only and recover it if need.

I am not sure the command line to do that, but I am sure you can find how to on google

[JoshWho]

Ok will do.

I must have ran the git right before u sent it.

Keeping an eye out

[JoshWho]

See how all this is back to default again

[JoshWho]

I had the home tab disabled the Circle Check Mark should be the only checkmark showing there.

[JoshWho]

Everything went back to the default

[DanielnetoDotCom]

Josh, thank you for your patience.

I found something that seems to be the problem.

I just sent you a fix. can you please keep the eyes opened again?

[JoshWho]

Sure,no probs. I just re applied all my settings again. I am watching

[JoshWho]

And I wake up and everything is reset again to default

[JoshWho]

Come one we have to make these setting read only

[JoshWho]

They keep disabling the passwords salts and every setting. I have to re enable this is repeatedly ridiculous and needs to be hardened.

Had to re apply setting to

Confirm Email has to be re enabled Only Confirm EMail can Comment Only Confirm Email can upload CDN url Disabled Channel Home Tab Customize User setting Password Salt Re enabled Encoder Network URL Video CDN URL User Permissions have to re add back all the people I had as moderators. Player Skin changes My Custom setting for Checkmark1HTML keep s going back to default checkmark and not the checkmark circle I keep setting it for.. TimeZone had to fix Re enable Donation links

Seems to be only plugin settings. Core settings do not get changed. Just the addons seems to be like a floating variable.

They are winning this war by making users think my website is not reliable. How can this be stopped? I think the only solution is to set my settings in stone. AKA harden them

[DanielnetoDotCom]

I suspect it is a bug, not an attack.

I still could not detect the error, I am so sorry. But I am sending new updates again to try to catch what happens.
