Not enjoying Buttonizer 2.0?
We're sorry to hear that! But no worries, you can still migrate back to version 1.5.7. We backed up the button data before migrating the buttons to the new version.
If you have any feedback concerning Buttonizer, missing features or bug reporting for example, don't forget to let us know at our Feedback forum!
Note: The 1.5.x version won't receive any updates. Version 1.5.7 will be the latest version of the v1 series.
Note two: For security reasons, it is not wise to have older versions of plugins installed, although there are no security issues known in 1.5.7. It's up to you if you want to proceed. It is not our responsibility if something goes wrong in the future with the outdated version.
We'll provide updates for Buttonizer 2.0 every one or two weeks. So stay tuned if you are waiting for a feature or bugfix!
Step 1
The first step is to delete Buttonizer 2.0 from your WordPress website.
Step 2
If you're a free user, you can download Buttonizer 1.5.7 via the WordPress plugin page. Go to this page and scroll down to 'Previous versions' and download 1.5.7.
If you are a premium user, you can contact Buttonizer support to receive your protected download link.
Step 3
Upload Buttonizer 1.5.7 to your website and activate it. You will see that there are no buttons available.
We'll delete the 2.0 data and migrate back to the settings of 1.5.7. Go to your database manager and run the following queries.
DELETE FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_buttons';
DELETE FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_buttons_published';
DELETE FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_schedules';
DELETE FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_schedules_published';
DELETE FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_rules';
DELETE FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_rules_published';
DELETE FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_has_changes';
DELETE FROM `wp_options` WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_settings';
UPDATE `wp_options` SET `option_name` = 'buttonizer_buttons' WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_buttons_backup';
UPDATE `wp_options` SET `option_name` = 'buttonizer_opening_settings' WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_opening_settings_backup';
UPDATE `wp_options` SET `option_name` = 'buttonizer_page_categories' WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_page_categories_backup';
UPDATE `wp_options` SET `option_name` = 'buttonizer_general_settings' WHERE `option_name` = 'buttonizer_general_settings_backup';
Step 4
Now your buttons and old settings will appear again. Don't forget to let us know why you switched back to 1.5.7 at our Feedback forum!
