Adding an existing guest author when network user isn't added to subsite error

Open owaincuvelier opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

An Invalid user parameter(s) error is thrown when adding a guest author that exists on the multisite network but the user isn't a member of the current subsite. Autosuggest doesn't display the existing user, but trying to add a user with an existing name throws an error.

Steps to reproduce:

  • On a multisite install with 2 subsites:
  • Add a guest author called "John Guest"
  • Change to the other subsite
  • Try adding a guest author called "John Guest"
  • Request shows an "Invalid user parameters" error
