Currently, the WP Statistics plugin attempts to create a .htaccess file to restrict public access to certain directories. This functionality leads to increased costs due to the repetitive creation of the .htaccess file, impacting users regardless of whether they are using Apache or Nginx.

To accommodate all users, it would be beneficial to implement a way to disable this functionality. Possible options include:

• A new setting in the WP Statistics settings page to enable or disable the creation of the .htaccess file.
• A WordPress hook that allows developers to programmatically disable the creation of the .htaccess file.
• An environment variable that can be set to control this behavior without modifying the code directly.

Acceptance criteria

• A method is available for users to disable the creation of the .htaccess file.
• The existing functionality for users who need the .htaccess file remains unchanged.
• Clear documentation is provided on how to use the new functionality.

How To Test

1. Go to the WP Statistics settings page.
2. Look for the option to disable .htaccess file creation.
3. Change the setting to “disabled” and verify the behavior.
4. Test the hook and environment variable to ensure they function as intended.
5. Monitor the number of .htaccess files created in the specified directory before and after the change.

Please use your Order Number (available once you place order) as the payment reference.

After paying, please come back here and place the order below so we can start processing your order.

So on one hand it asks you to provide information only available after placing your order as the payment reference, but also tells you not to place your order until you’ve paid. I think what should happen is it should say “after placing your order please send zelle payment using the order number as the payment reference”. And there can be some better details about that on the order-received page

Anyone else find the current language confusing?

I am using the Appointment Booking Calendar Plugin and Online Scheduling Plugin and need to know if it’s possible to set different working hours for each service offered. Specifically, I need to configure the schedules as follows:

• Service 1: from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
• Service 2: from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM and from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM

If this functionality is available, could someone please explain how to set it up? Thank you very much!

Any suggestions would be great.

I am reaching out because I am attempting to connect my website to the Fediverse/Activity Pub and there seems to be a direct conflict coming from this plugin and I am not sure how to fix it.

My website seems to partially connect to ActivityPub, but Shield seems to be blocking access to https://thecozy.cat/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct%3Aaevisia%40thecozy.cat which needs to be publicly viewable in order to work. When the Shield plugin is activated, my website throws a critical error when accessing that link. When I disable the Shield plugin, the link works fine and as it should, so it must be something Shield is blocking that is preventing access to this URL. I’ve gone through and tested all the settings I could think of that could be causing this issue, but am having no luck.

I am hoping support may be able to point me in the right direction to resolving this so I can continue to use ActivityPub with my website as well as keep my website protected. Thank you!

EDIT: This screenshot is what is visible when the shield plugin is deactivated, in case this information is needed.

I’m currently using the Lightbox with PhotoSwipe plugin on my WordPress website and I’m encountering an issue. The plugin works perfectly for images in WEBP format but does not seem to activate for images in JPG format.

Here is the HTML for a WEBP image, which works fine:

<a  
   data-lbwps-width="4160" 
   data-lbwps-height="6240" 
   data-lbwps-srcsmall="https://mywebsite.com/path/to/image.webp">
  <img decoding="async" 
       src="https://mywebsite.com/path/to/image.webp" 
       alt="" 
       class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4203">
</a>

And here is the HTML for a JPG image, which does not activate the lightbox:

<a >
  <img decoding="async" 
       class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4224" 
       src="https://mywebsite.com/path/to/image.jpg" 
       alt="">
</a>

Both images are inserted into posts using the same method. The plugin seems to be adding the necessary data- attributes automatically for the WEBP image but not for the JPG image. I have checked my settings and do not see an option to choose which image formats should be processed by the plugin.

To troubleshoot the issue, I have deactivated all other plugins and switched to a default WordPress theme, but the problem persists.

I would appreciate any help or suggestions to troubleshoot this issue. Thank you in advance.

I have a website salty.co.in for which I have added the plugin autoptomize

I am confused with the setting and would really appreciate some help. Can you let me know if I should select the below option in JS and CSS

JS – Also aggregate inline JS?

CSS:
Eliminate render-blocking CSS? or Inline all CSS?

Looking forward to your help

“There has been a critical error on this website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.”

Checked dev and it’s running PHP version 8.08.

My local dev saved fine when in PHP 7.4.1. When changing to PHP 8.0 I get the same critical error when clicking “Save” button in default settings along with following PHP error:

“Uncaught Error: Non-static method Locate_And_Filter_Admin::locate_anything_sanitaze_option() cannot be called statically in /Users/andrewtrecha/Local/broadstone-mcdowell/app/public/wp-content/plugins/locateandfilter/admin/class-locate-and-filter-admin.php on line 412”

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

In the Contact Form I created, using the default template, in “Edit Form > Appearance”, the following custom section settings do not work at all:

• Colors
• Fonts
• Form Container
• Custom CSS

The “Design Style” section does work.

As a note, in the Custom CSS section, when I click the basic selector button: “Form”, all it inserts are a pair of curly brackets {}, nothing else. The other basic selector buttons do insert the respective property name along with the curly brackets, but despite that, the Custom CSS section of the plugin does not work at all.

If I use Additional CSS in the theme customizer, that works fine with the form, but this should not be needed if the plugin provides its own Custom CSS method.

— Tests —
I did the plugins deactivation and switched to the WordPress default theme twenty-nineteen, there was no difference, the issue remains.

I purged the server cache and browser cache each time I changed the custom settings, it made no difference, the issue remains.
