Title: Beta Testing / Issue Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Beta Testing / Issue * [jlbrown1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlbrown1/) * (@jlbrown1) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/beta-testing-issue/) * Allen, * I saw your post about having limited people interested in beta testing. I have been using your product for about a year and keeping it up-to-date. I downloaded your Beta to help you out (didn’t know how to contact you to let you know). * I have an issue with the new version. For some reason, when the plugin is active, it deletes information from my website. It removes all of my images and deletes other records from my databases (I have wp-invoice installed and it deletes all of my invoices). It appears to happen when your plugin attempts to clean out old posts per the defined retention policy. * I would love to keep beta testing, but I had to disable the plugin until we figure this out. Other than this one issue, everything else is working brilliantly. I have tested many of the different shortcodes and display options, etc. * Thanks! * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-rss-multi-importer/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-rss-multi-importer/) Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) * Plugin Author [Allen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amweiss98/) * (@amweiss98) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/beta-testing-issue/#post-5151182) * How long ago did you download the beta…is it the most up to date version? * Thread Starter [jlbrown1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlbrown1/) * (@jlbrown1) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/beta-testing-issue/#post-5151191) * July 20th is when it was downloaded/installed. Subsequently removed on Wednesday of that week after working with hosting provider to determine how files and database records were getting deleted. * I had to restore my website from backup 3 days in a row. 🙂 * Just haven’t had time to reach out to you. * Plugin Author [Allen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/amweiss98/) * (@amweiss98) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/beta-testing-issue/#post-5151199) * ok..I found a bug a few weeks ago that might have cause this unfortunate deletions… this was fixed in a version I put up probably after when you downloaded it. * Here is the most recent version I put up yesterday * [https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3132388/beta/nextgen/wp-rss-multi-importer.zip](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3132388/beta/nextgen/wp-rss-multi-importer.zip) * If you do use this, please let me know if you keep running into this problem as this is a serious bug I want to make sure was fixed. * Thanks * Thread Starter [jlbrown1](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlbrown1/) * (@jlbrown1) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/beta-testing-issue/#post-5151245) * I will try that later this evening.
