Syncing users overwritesall other child keys in database. #132

Closed MerlinOfCode closed 3 years ago

MerlinOfCode commented 4 years ago

I had to deactivate the user syncing feature, because everytime a user would login to the site, all the data they added in firebase would be over-witten with the data being synced from login. Is there a way to just update the existing nodes?

For instance, a user sings up, and this is sent to firebse:

wp-users:

    email
    displayName
    photoUrl
   etc...

If they then add more data in the app, such as background photo, about, etc.., when they login to the website again thru firebaseui_web, all the new nodes created in firebase get deleted and set back to the original map.

Is there a way to prevent this?

type of database that you are using (realtime / firestore)
snapshot of before and after the changes
