 * We’re seeing a fatal error across multiple sites about a table that doesn’t exist.
   This is happening on version 3.8.2.
 * The error appears like the below (except with a different table based on the 
   site database):
 *     ```wp-block-code
       PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Exception: Table '1343223239287.wp_wc_orders_meta' doesn't exist in /srv/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/tutor/helpers/QueryHelper.php:1120
       ```

 * Hello [@um84](https://wordpress.org/support/users/um84/) ,
 * Thank you for pointing this out, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
 * I’ve already informed our development team about the issue, and it will be addressed
   in a future update. In the meantime, as a quick fix, you can go to **/wp-content/
   plugins/tutor/classes/WooCommerce.php** and remove lines **606–610**. This should
   resolve the error.
 * Best regards,
   Sunjida

 * Is there any update on when a fix will be released for this? The plugin appears
   to have dependencies for WooCommerce and HPOS tables. We have hundreds of sites
   throwing this fatal because they don’t have WooCommerce installed.

 * Hey [@mtg169](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mtg169/) ,
 * Thank you for reaching out. Please disable **WP_DEBUG** from your `wp-config.
   php` file if you are not using WooCommerce on your site, as the error should 
   not cause any functional issues at the moment.
 * Alternatively, you can **roll back to a previous version of Tutor LMS** if you
   are experiencing any visible issues on your site. Our development team is currently
   reviewing the problem, and it should be addressed in a future update. Please 
   keep an eye on the **changelog** for the latest updates and fixes.

 * The errors being logged isn’t an issue for us and WP_DEBUG isn’t enabled. 
   The
   issue just needs to be fixed in the plugin such as adding checks to see if WooCommerce
   is active, require users to install it before activating `tutor`, etc. This is
   happening since at least 2.8.2 and not fixed in 2.8.3 or 2.9.0. If Woo is a dependency,
   checking if it’s active is a core concept and requirement if you perhaps ever
   wanted the plugin to be listed in the Woo Marketplace: [https://developer.woocommerce.com/docs/extensions/core-concepts/check-if-woo-is-active/](https://developer.woocommerce.com/docs/extensions/core-concepts/check-if-woo-is-active/)
 * Since it affects hundreds of sites, we’ve been installing/activating WooCommerce,
   enabling HPOS to create the missing table, and then deactivating and deleting
   WooCommerce.
