  * Updated environment setup instructions
  * Replaced Docker commands with Cloudways staging equivalents
  * Added Cloudways-specific troubleshooting guidance
  * Updated access points and URLs
  * Added best practices for staging environment

Next Steps:
1. Identify Docker-related code files and scripts
2. Update or deprecate Docker-related code
3. Create new scripts specifically for Cloudways interaction if needed
[2025-04-23 23:16:44] - Completed test user creation on staging server.
[2025-04-23 23:16:44] - Troubleshooted and fixed plugin deployment script (`deploy-plugin.sh`).
[2025-04-23 23:16:44] - Fixed test user creation script (`setup-staging-test-users.sh`) role name mismatch.
[2025-04-23 23:16:44] - Updated E2E test runner script (`run-tests.sh`) to use SSH and explicitly pass staging URL.
[2025-04-23 23:16:44] - Increased Playwright timeout and enabled debugging artifacts in `playwright.config.ts`.
[2025-04-23 23:16:44] - Updated documentation files (`docs/mvp-integration-testing-plan.md`, `wordpress-dev/README.md`, `wordpress-dev/MIGRATION_GUIDE.md`) with test user setup information and corrected numbering in `docs/mvp-integration-testing-plan.md`.
4. Test all updated documentation and scripts
[2025-04-23 19:12:33] - Completed identification and deprecation of all Docker-based commands and configuration. Removed Docker variables from dev-env.conf and replaced wp-config-docker.php with a deprecation notice. All workflows now use Cloudways Staging exclusively. Task complete.
[2025-04-24 05:21:00] - Identified database connection issue on staging environment causing E2E test failures. Analysis of Playwright debugging artifacts revealed that the application is unable to connect to the database (`Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'`), preventing the rendering of critical UI elements that the tests are waiting for. Updated `docs/mvp-integration-testing-plan.md` to document that backend issues like database connection failures can cause E2E test failures.
[2025-04-24 05:37:00] - Created `fix-db-connection.sh` script in the `wordpress-dev/bin/` directory to address the database connection issue on the staging server. The script checks and fixes database connection settings, including verifying SSH connection, testing database connectivity, checking WordPress configuration, searching for hardcoded credentials, and fixing configuration files. The script includes options for verbose output and a dry-run mode, and creates backups of any files it modifies.
[2025-04-24 06:17:00] - Executed `fix-db-connection.sh` script on staging server. Script reported successful database connection.
[2025-04-24 06:17:00] - Re-ran E2E tests after executing `fix-db-connection.sh`. Tests failed due to incorrect URL configuration in test files (expecting localhost instead of staging URL).
[2025-04-24 07:03:00] - Updated E2E Test URL Configuration
- Modified E2E test files to use relative paths instead of hardcoded URLs:
  * dashboard.spec.ts: Changed localhost URL fallback to empty string and updated URL assertions to use relative paths
  * login-page.ts: Changed hardcoded URL to relative path `/wp-login.php`
  * registration-page.ts: Changed hardcoded URL to relative path `/register`
- Re-ran E2E tests with updated configuration
- Tests now correctly navigate to staging URLs but still fail due to missing elements
- Root causes identified:
  * Database connection issue fixed by fix-db-connection.sh script
  * URL configuration issue fixed by our code changes
  * Remaining issue: Expected elements not found on pages, possibly due to differences in page structure or rendering issues

Next Steps:
1. Further investigate why expected elements are not appearing on pages
2. Check for differences in page structure between local and staging environments
3. Verify that all required plugins are properly activated on staging
4. Consider updating test selectors to match the actual staging environment structure
[2025-04-24 07:27:00] - Identified Root Causes of E2E Test Element Not Found Errors
- Discovered specific elements that tests are failing to find:
  * `#tribe-community-events.tribe-community-events-form` on /manage-event/
  * `table#tribe-community-events-list` on /my-events/
- Identified URL format mismatch issues:
  * Tests expect relative URLs (e.g., `href="/manage-event/"`)
  * Staging site generates absolute URLs (e.g., `href="https://wordpress-974670-5399585.cloudwaysapps.com/manage-event/"`)
- Determined that The Events Calendar Community Events plugin may have activation or configuration issues
- Recommended solutions:
  * Verify plugin activation status on staging
  * Update test assertions to use `expect.stringContaining()` instead of exact matches
  * Review WordPress site URL and home URL settings
  * Enable WordPress debug mode to identify plugin rendering issues

Next Steps:
1. Verify plugin activation status on staging server
2. Update test assertions to be more flexible with URL formats
3. Check WordPress URL configuration
4. Debug plugin rendering issues
[2025-04-24 14:53:18] - Completed plugin verification script updates, Playwright E2E test runs, and debug artifact capture. All plugin activation issues resolved; `[tribe_community_events view="list"]` rendering and E2E test failures remain for further investigation.
[2025-04-24 22:19:54] - Advanced Debugging Session Halted and Memory Bank Update Triggered
- Enabled WP_DEBUG and WP_DEBUG_LOG on staging server for real-time PHP error logging.
- Injected diagnostic error_log statements into TEC Community Events shortcode handler (`do_shortcode`).
- Verified debug log is writable and active (other logs present).
- Triggered shortcode via WP-CLI as both unauthenticated and test user; handler not executed in CLI context.
- Ran full Playwright E2E suite; `[TEC CE DEBUG]` logs still not present, confirming handler not executed in E2E context.
- Confirmed plugin and page initialization logs present, but no evidence of TEC shortcode execution.
- Most likely root causes: E2E tests not reaching Community Events pages due to navigation or login failures, or plugin/theme/template override preventing shortcode execution.
- User requested to halt debugging and update Memory Bank.
[2025-04-27 14:29:33] - Began implementation of Order Summary Page feature: new trainer-facing page to display order and attendee details for event transactions, per requirements and implementation plan.
[2025-04-29 19:09:15] - Debugged Playwright test failure for event creation: determined the publish button selector was incorrect. Confirmed via debug logs that the correct selector is #post or .events-community-submit. Recommended updating the test to use this selector to resolve the failure.
