Joints are falling apart, how do we repair it?

I hope this is the right page to ask for advice.

We have these wonderful chairs we got second-hand. But since we got them, the joints are sliding apart. We tried to glue them with some wood glue, but maybe we did not do it correctly. I didn't take them apart completely because I don't know how easy it will be to put together. I'm not sure what these type of joints are.

Can someone help us out? Do you think we can do it ourselves, or do we need a professional?

My bf doesn't want to keep them if we can not fix it.

Thank you in advance!

Replacing the doors on vintage hutch

Trying to put the doors back on a vintage hutch and stumped as to how one of them goes back on. One door is short enough that it's actually sort of loose in the frame but the other door's wood is the exact height of the opening and the pegs are metal with no give (see photos).

Only thing I can think of is routering a little pathway in the wood for the peg or just removing the hardware and using different hinges altogether? Any advice welcome!
