ATTN: Action Required if you have upgraded WordPress to version 4.3 on your site.
\n<\/span><\/h3>\n

A new feature in WP 4.3 is designed to send out a ‘password changed’ email to subscribers in the event that an e-mail or password is changed directly in WP.\u00a0 But this feature is triggering an unexpected ‘password changed email notification’<\/strong> to members during login.<\/p>\n

What’s causing this issue?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

DAP does a full sync of the user account to WP (including password) during member login. The new version of WP is treating the sync similar to a ‘change password’ event and sending out an automatic and unexpected ‘password updated’ email to your DAP users (directly via WordPress).<\/p>\n

This will confuse your DAP users as they did not request a password change or update their password.<\/p>\n

This email is getting sent during DAP \/ WP login.<\/p>\n

What’s the Fix ?<\/h3>\n

We have released a new version of DAP LiveLinks plugin (version 1.12.1) to address this issue. It will suppress the WP password-change email from being sent to your users.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Suppressing this email is not going to cause any security issue because DAP does not allow users to update their password directly in WP. The password field is hidden from the subscribers in the WP profile page. The users can only update their password in the DAP user-profile page.<\/p>\n

IMPORTANT NOTE: You must be on DAP v4.8.1 or DAP v4.9.1 to use this new version of LiveLinks v1.12.1.<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

How can I find my current DAP version number?<\/h3>\n

You will find the DAP version number in your DAP admin dashboard -> footer section.<\/p>\n

My site is already on DAP v4.8.1 or 4.9.1<\/h3>\n

No need to update DAP.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just download LiveLinks v1.12.1 <\/strong>zip file from your member’s area<\/a> on our site. Extract contents of the zip file to your desktop and upload it to \/wp-content\/plugins folder.<\/p>\n

That’s it.<\/p>\n

My site is on an older version of DAP (v4.7.2 or below)<\/h3>\n

If you are not on DAP v4.8.1 or v4.9.1, then you will have to first upgrade DAP to 4.8.1 or 4.9.1<\/strong>.\u00a0 Then upgrade LiveLinks to 1.12.1<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Here’s the upgrade steps :<\/strong><\/p>\n

Download DAP v4.8.1 (OR v4.9.1) <\/strong>and LiveLinks v1.12.1 <\/strong>zip files from your member’s area<\/a> on our site.<\/p>\n

a) You can use the DAP Easy Installer<\/a><\/strong> plugin to upgrade DAP and LiveLinks.<\/strong><\/p>\n

-OR-<\/p>\n

b) You can use FTP to upload the files.<\/p>\n

1. Download dap 4.8.1 or 4.9.1 zip files from your member’s area<\/a> on our site.<\/p>\n

Extract contents of the dap 4.9.1 zip file to your desktop and upload it to the root folder of your site, overwriting the contents of the dap folder.<\/p>\n

2. Download DAP LiveLinks version 1.12.1 from your member’s area<\/a> on our site, extract contents of the DAP LiveLinks zip file to your desktop and upload it to \/wp-content\/plugins folder.<\/p>\n
