 * My registration page was working but stopped after update.
    Ive tried both old
   and new shortcode with same results [wp-members page=”register”] [wpmem_form 
   register]
 * I get the following error
 * Warning: include(simple_html_dom.php): failed to open stream: No such file or
   directory in /home/content/a2pnexwpnas01_data02/00/3492300/html/wp-content/plugins/

 * Your missing file simple_html_dom.php isn’t part of WP-Members and you’re calling
   it from wp-members-pluggable.php, which also isn’t part of the plugin.
 * wp-members-pluggable.php is a filename you can use to automatically load custom
   versions of pluggable functions in the plugin. But anything you’ve done in that
   area is your own customization, so this issue is actually outside of the plugin.

 * Hi Chad,
 * Thanks for the rapid reply. I am not sure what was done prior, (i.e. customization).
   What is the best way to go back to the original default plugin setup and start
   building from there?
 * Should I delete plugin, delete folder and re-install?
 * Thanks
    Ruben

 * You probably don’t need to delete the plugin (in fact, that wouldn’t remove the
   pluggable file you have causing the issue since it’s outside the plugin).
 * The file you want to get rid of is wp-content/plugins/wp-members-pluggable.php
   You’ll probably need to do that via FTP. It’s not part of the plugin; it’s a 
   file for storing custom versions of various functions in the plugin.
 * Before you delete it, though, you probably want to make a local copy so you know
   what was attempted to be done. Like I mentioned, this is a file for loading custom
   functions, so I wouldn’t know what was in it. If there might be something in 
   there you want to fix or re-do, you should save it so you can do that later.
