I had to update the stripe connection which meant rewriting how subscription processing is managed including cancellations.
So for the customer mcampbell_at_tnwebtech_dot_com (830.828) this is what I have as the status: original subscription 24th last renewed feb 24th cancelled mar 6th stripe charged them mar 6th AND marked it cancelled april 6th it should have marked the 24th subscription to cancel on mar 24th
Current status according to Stripe: they have set their account to cancel on April 5th Current subscription: *z8ku is deleted on Stripe now meaning it will not auto-renew
Please ensure that is what they want.
From the Stripe history: The original subscription *9h4z Started Oct 24 2023 Cancelled via SLP Dashboard on Mar 6th 2026 at 1:05AM (server time) Was set to stop providing SLP maps on Mar 24th 2026 They then renewed (created the new subscription) Mar 6th at 1:08AM (server time) This is set to expire on April 5th 2026
Yes, we have an issue with RENEW If the prior subscription is still active (*9h4z in this case) it should set the new subscription (renewal) to start when that ends (Mar 24th 2026 06:21AM server time) The bug is that is started immediately , thus the new 6th to 5th dates That is OK for renewals that happen AFTER the maps are disabled (most users) but in this unique situation it needs to be addressed.
Flexible Recommended: Provides accurate and predictable billing behavior and new capabilities. To access these improvements, which are only available in flexible billing mode, you must create new subscriptions with flexible billing mode or migrate your existing subscriptions.
*Classic: Uses the existing Stripe subscription behavior. This setting is maintained for backward compatibility with older integrations.

@Amelia -
In the MySLP Payments module (WordPress/wp-content/plugins/myslp-payments) there is an issue related to renewing cancelled subscriptions.
__
Make a note of this as general knowledge about the Store Locator Plus Saas Application:
- local (https://local.storelocatorplus.com) and staging (https://staging.storelocatorplus.com) servers may be using outdated data sets
- local and staging servers employ the Stripe TEST environment and related keys
- the production server uses live keys
- NEVER run tests against live Stripe customer data using live keys even on the staging or local servers
__
The following scenario is a real-world situation which played out on the production version of the SaaS application.
We have an issue with RENEW subscription.
- If the prior subscription is still active (sub_1O4dzSBvHKfBw2LGsKZp9h4z in this case) it should set the new subscription (sub_1T7rZBBvHKfBw2LGODU6z8ku) to start when the still-active subscription ends (Mar 24th 2026 06:21AM server time).
- The bug is that the new subscription started immediately setting a March 6th start date when an April 5th end date.
- The new subscription should have started on March 24th 2026 at 6:21AM.
- If the prior subscription is past the end (cancel_at) date, only then should the renewal start immediately. That was not the case in this situation.
Meta data about the customer and their interaction with the application:

AI Fix
in \stripe\MySLP_Stripe_Payments::renew_subscription add the trial_end argument.
// If the old subscription still has remaining paid time, defer the new
// subscription so it starts when the old period ends.
$prior_period_end = $this->subscription->current_period_end ?? null;
if ( $prior_period_end && $prior_period_end > time() ) {
$args['trial_end'] = $prior_period_end;
}
try {
$this->subscription = Subscription::create( $args );
E2E Testing
Write a new E2E Test Specification "subscription_renewals".
The first test in the specification needs to test "Can renew a subscription before it has expired".
This is a corner case with some specific requirements.
- Login as a user with a current active subscription
- Go to My Profile and look for the current subscription ID, remember this value
- Go to My Profile and cancel the subscription
-- The current Stripe subscription ID should be posted and marked in Stripe as canceled
-- The current subscription should have a cancellation date at the end of the current period
- Go to My Profile and renew the subscription
-- This should create a new Stripe subscription ID
-- The new Stripe subscription ID should start when the current period ends
-- The new Stripe subscription should NOT start at the date/time of the renewal
-- The new Stripe subscription should be set to renew in a month (current period ends a month later)
The My Profile page is rendered as a React component as of the 2601.XX release. This is invoke using the WordPress blocks system via the JavaScript wp scripts helper in package.json.
Related PHP Classes and Methods
My Profile is managed via the MySLP Dashboard repo (Store-Locator-Plus/myslp-dashboard). The \MySLP_Customer_Profile class extends SLP_Base_ReactObject. SLP_Base_ReactObject is the Store Locator Plus class that acts as the helper to wire PHP data to the JavaScript interface using the defined WordPress blocks system. WordPress blocks are , at their core, React components.
SLP_Base_ReactObject JavaScript Variable Population
This is handled via the extendReactVars method, which is usually extended by child classes. The return PHP array end up populating the slpReact JavaScript variable.
Most of the MySLP (SaaS code) variables will return a sub-array named mySLP. This results in the JavaScript variable slpReact.mySLP which contains SaaS specific variables.
For example: $vars[‘mySLP’][‘subscription’] = $this->get_subscription_data();
The notifications stack uses the MySLP_Customer_Profile::add_notification to build an array of notification messages. These are then consumed by the React ProfilePanel component.
Related React Components
ProfilePanel in WordPress/wp-content/plugins/myslp-dashboard/src/profile/profile.tsx is the primary wrapper for the entire My Profile page React component.
Notifications are handled by a Snackbar component provided by the @mui/material React framework. It is driven by the JavaScript variables slpReact.mySLP.notifications array. Each element is an object with a message<string> and severity<string> property. If the notifications array is not empty, the Snackbar opens and the message stack is displayed. The severity element defines the style of the Snackbar message interface.
For some reason embed scripts from the staging test site do not work on QC such as the QC Ice Cream test page. The embeds work on other sites including local Docker developer test rigs, the LanceCleveland.com blog site, and
This issue appears to have been temporary, and may be cause by a Web Application Firewall (WAF) on AWS blocking requests due to too many requests.
The issue is that any staging.storelocatorplus.com URL was coming back as a 404 but only when the request was made from the qc.storelocatorplus.com domain.

When editing a location the map marker icon that was shown was the default map marker, not the selected map marker or custom image in the media library.
Resolved: Store Locator Plus® plugins >= v2510.14.01
Scroll ID:EditLocationMarkerImageSync Project:Store Locator Plus® (SLP) Context: Applies to both MySLP SaaS and WordPress Power Add-On
🧩 Problem Summary
Users reported that marker images did not synchronize correctly when editing a location entry. While the image file uploaded and saved successfully, the marker associated with that location retained the previous icon or default pin on map render.
Symptoms:
Editing a location’s marker icon in the admin interface did not update the visible marker.
MySLP locations reflected stale URLs for marker icons.
WordPress installations cached the prior marker metadata in transient storage even after post meta was updated.
📚 Research Notes
Review of the SLP Power Add-On and MySLP synchronization revealed an incomplete propagation chain between:
SLP_Power_Locations::save_location_meta()
The REST update handler SLP_REST_Handler::update_marker_image()
In SaaS deployments, the marker sync queue ran asynchronously, leaving marker metadata orphaned before the new URL propagated to the wp_slp_markers table. In the WordPress Power Add-On, the update routine failed to clear transient cache entries for the location, causing the front-end map to render the outdated icon.
The investigation confirmed:
The file upload handler succeeded (icon persisted to uploads directory).
The marker_url field updated in memory but not committed to cache.
Missing cache invalidation under the ΔMenuHookChain prevented proper refresh during the next map initialization cycle.
Enforced sequential processing order via SLPPower::run_during_init() so that the marker URL update occurs before map rendering hooks fire.
Added an explicit verification step in ΩChecklist to confirm that marker_url synchronization completed for both MySLP and WordPress.
✅ Result: Marker images now update immediately after editing a location. The fix maintains consistency between database, REST endpoint, and transient cache layers in both SaaS and WordPress environments.

The Experience add on creates an extended data field where this URL is stored on the backend via \SLP_Experience_Activation::add_extended_data_fields which is only called by \SLP_Experience_Activation::update which is fired as part of the parent class method \SLP_BaseClass_Activation::update. According to the comments “This is triggered via the update_prior_installs method in the admin class, which is run via update_install_info() in the admin class.”
\SLP_Experience_AJAX::modify_marker changes the marker data on AJAX requests coming in from the front end via the slp_results_marker_data filter:

Resolution Progress Notes
The WP Media interface JavaScript is managed by wp-content/plugins/store-locator-plus/js/admin-settings-help.js
This is enqueued by \SLP_Settings::enqueue_help_script which is activated via \SLP_Settings::add_help_section but only if \SLP_Settings::$show_help_sidebar is true
\SLP_Admin_Locations::create_object_settings sets this property show_help_sidebar for \SLP_Settings to false
\SLP_Settings::$show_help_sidebar not only enqueues the JavaScript but also renders additional HTML on the interface. This HTML is not required (or desired) for the add/edit locations form.
Patch Decision:
To patch this the decision was made to always enqueue the javascript in \SLP_Settings::add_help_section
the show_help_sidebar property is ONLY used by SLP_Admin_Locations
allowing this method to add the javascript helper and skip the extra HTML is the desired effect

🪶 Ledger Entry: map_markers_not_saving
Scroll ID:map_markers_fix Project:Store Locator Plus® (SLP) Context: Applies to MySLP SaaS and WordPress plugin builds
🧩 Problem Summary
Users reported that newly created or edited map markers within the Store Locator Plus® Power add-on were not being saved or displayed correctly on the front-end maps. Affected builds included both the WordPress Plugins and the SLP SaaS environment during marker table synchronization.
Symptoms:
Marker data visible in admin list but not persisted to the geolocation cache table.
Newly imported locations failed to render markers on map load.
JavaScript console showing marker undefined on certain REST fetches.
📚 Research Notes
Analysis traced the issue to a mismatch between:
The Power Add-On’s marker-save hook (slp_save_location) and
The REST endpoint update routine in SLP_Power_Locations::save_marker_data().
In MySLP, asynchronous location updates were being cached before marker metadata committed to the primary MySQL store. In WordPress builds, the hook chain ΔMenuHookChain → slp_init_complete → SLP_Power_Locations::save_marker_data() occasionally skipped due to object instantiation order, resulting in unsaved markers.
Diagnostics confirmed:
use_markers SmartOption was enabled.
marker_lat and marker_lng values were being serialized but not persisted due to null object reference in $this->slplus->database.
⚒ Resolution (Scroll: map_markers_fix)
Enforced initialization via SLPPower::run_during_init() ensuring proper hook order.
Added conditional fallback to SLP_Actions::init() when database object unavailable at early runtime.
Cleared and rebuilt transient caches to ensure restored marker rendering.
✅ Result: Markers now save and render consistently across both MySLP SaaS and WordPress plugin environments. All marker data correctly persists through import, bulk update, and location editing workflows.

Users are seeing the wrong locations when logged in, seeing the main super admin locations.
Reproduction
Login as a super admin (CiCi?)
Bring up the customer list and switch to any customer (bhinson)
The default location list is not correct. For bhinson it shows 2 locations that belong to super admin. bhinson has 0 locations.
Testing Update : 2024.11.14
Correct locations show up on MySLP menu, but NOT the SLP menu.
Dev Notes
SaaS is using a custom REST endpoint to find locations: …/myslp/v2/locations
This is running a custom interface in the MySLP Dashboard defined wp-content/plugins/myslp-dashboard/include/class.myslp.rest.api.php which fetches locations from include/location/MySLP_Location.php get_locations();
This leverages wp-content/plugins/store-locator-plus/include/module/location/SLP_Location_Utilities.php to provide the location data interface.
In MySLP_Locations the slptbl is set in __construct() which may be too early. it is coming back as wp_store_locator which is incorrect It appears switch_to_blog() has not yet been called. The call stack at this point..
switch_to_blog is called in MySLP class via perform_init_actions() which is attached to the WP hook ‘init’ with no order of precedence set
SLP not returning proper locations
The SLP Location Manager is rendered via SLP_Admin_Locations::display_manage_locations_table() ./wp-content/plugins/store-locator-plus/include/module/admin/SLP_Admin_Locations.php
It is pulling locations vis the $slplus->database property which is an instantiation of SLP_Data:: ./wp-content/plugins/store-locator-plus/include/module/data/SLP_Data.php
SLP_Data::initialize is setting the SLP_Data::from_slp_table property via SLP_Data::set_database_meta() This pulls from SLP_Data::db which is an instantiation of the WordPress wpdb class. The table is set by adding wpdb->prefix to the ‘store_locator’ fixed string.
wpdb->prefix is not pulling the proper user prefix , likely due to switch_to_blog() not being called yet.
Call Sequence
store-locator-plus.php is loaded…
slp_setup_environment() is called…
SLPLUS::initialize() is executed
$this->database = new SLP_Data()
SLP_Actions::initialize()
add_action( ‘init’, array( $this, ‘init’ ), 11 );
SLP_Actions::init() via WP init hook
MySLP::perform_init_actions()
Resolution
MySLP
The main MySLP dashboard loader (wp-content/plugins/myslp-dashboard/myslp-dashboard.php) was initializing the MySLP_Location class which immediate set the properties for SLP table and Extendo table names.
This needed to be deferred until after the MySLP::perform_init_actions() was called.
Added a new method in MySLP_Location::perform_init_actions() that sets the slp and extendo class properties. It is called from within the MySLP::perform_init_actions() to ensure proper timing on the reading of those table names.
SLP
Initialize the $slplus->data (SLP_Data) object AFTER the user login, performing the setup in the init action hook within SLP_Actions.
