Latest update broke the plugin

  • This was always a good plugin, until version 5. Now it’s broke, it mostly doesn’t even save the options. We also did tutorials on Youtube about this plugin, but now we are forced to tell our customers to use something else. It was good to control Cloudflare from WordPress, now it tries to force you into using the disk cache, injects ads and tries to upsell additional things.

    On top of this, options are now extremely hidden, and the form doesn’t save the changes
    “An invalid form control with name=’swcfpc_cf_fallback_cache_ttl’ is not focusable. ?”

    Hello,

    I am sorry to hear you feel that way, it would help to understand more about the browser you are using since I couldn’t replicate this.

    You had a value different than 0 for that field and >100 right? I believe we found the root cause and would fix shortly.

    Disk cache is not mandatory or “pushed”, the “upsell” is something a lot of people find useful, since in the pro version parameters like ?glid or utm_source, are not causing a MISS, so the hit ratio and speed would increase and this is worth it for some users.

    The quick response is admirable, the latest 2 versions though had tons of problems. I’ve bulk updated 30 websites 2 hours ago and had to roll-back the version to 3 versions ago to have all working fine.
    Version 4.9 was the last decent one .

    Ans why on earth did you delete all of the useful options that were in the advanced tab? It makes really no sense to me that a feature that is out and working fine gets removed with an upgrade.

    Javascript issue apart, since v 5.0 the plugin has been destroyed.

    Hey,

    I am sorry to hear that, we had some issues couple of releases ago, but almost none in the past 2 major releases.

    We shifted the plugin positioning in 5.0, that’s true and it’s fair that some people would prefer the old version, you’re welcome to keep using that and it is possible, we just think that more people would enjoy the new features and positioning vs before.

    Features are not removed now, we just moved them in the advanced tab, since for 90% of the users we estimate that those are not needed.

    I appreciate your feedback, but you can see in this video tons of options that disappeared. On the left of the screen, version 4.7, on the right, the latest version.

    Hey @qantumthemes,

    Those options appear now only when the respective plugins or providers are detected. The third party options tab doesn’t appear at all if none of the plugins are active, or the providers are not detected.

    This was done to simplify the UI as a lot of the options there might never be needed for a lot of people and they were overwhelming the dashboard.
