I'm receive this message in my PHP error log, it only appears when I press save, but all the settings DO save and the filter works as expected. Any recommendations?
[15-Apr-2026 16:54:05 UTC] WordPress database error Table 'xxxxxxxxxxxx_wrdp.wp_woof_front_builder' doesn't exist for query SELECT id FROM `wp_woof_front_builder` made by do_action('woocommerce_page_wc-settings'), WP_Hook->do_action, WP_Hook->apply_filters, WC_Admin_Menus->settings_page, WC_Admin_Settings::output, include('/plugins/woocommerce/includes/admin/views/html-admin-settings.php'), do_action('woocommerce_settings_tabs_woof'), WP_Hook->do_action, WP_Hook->apply_filters, WOOF->print_plugin_options, WOOF->render_html_e, include('/plugins/woocommerce-products-filter/views/plugin_options.php'), do_action('woof_print_option_advanced'), WP_Hook->do_action, WP_Hook->apply_filters, WOOF_FRONT_BUILDER->global_options
Hello
The error is caused by a missing database table wp_woof_front_builder which should be created automatically on plugin activation. This can happen if the plugin was updated without the activation hook running.
To fix it, please deactivate the WOOF plugin and then reactivate it. This triggers the installation routine and creates the missing table. Your settings will not be lost.
Alternatively, you can try navigating to the Front Builder tab in the WOOF settings and saving a layout there, which may also trigger the table creation. However, deactivation and reactivation is the more reliable method.
If the error persists after reactivation, please let us know.
The error persists.
Steps taken
1. deactivate > reactivate which triggered the error
2. went to settings saved a change triggered the error
3. created a new section also triggered an error
4. deactivated and uninstalled the plugin completely > reinstalled the plugin > activated triggered the error
5. went to settings saved a change triggered the error
Hello
Please try creating the table manually via phpMyAdmin. Select your WordPress database, go to the SQL tab, and run this query:
CREATE TABLE `wp_woof_front_builder` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`name` varchar(64) DEFAULT NULL,
`selected` text DEFAULT NULL,
`options` text DEFAULT NULL,
`layout_options` text DEFAULT NULL,
`sections_options` text DEFAULT NULL,
`sections_layout_options` text DEFAULT NULL,
`viewtypes` text DEFAULT NULL,
`additional` text DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci;
Make sure to replace the wp_ prefix with your actual WordPress table prefix if it is different.
After running the query, go to WOOF settings and save. The error should be gone.
If you do not have phpMyAdmin access, please contact your hosting provider and ask them to either create the table or grant the CREATE TABLE privilege to your WordPress database user.
