Useful and detailed server information

Hi @wpfangirl,
I’ve just pished a fix hoping that this will fix the notice dismissal issue you guys are facing. As I was unable to reproduce the problem on my end and none of you guys feels confortable on sharing the wp-admin login so that I can debug efficiently, I just had to work based on hunches.

Anyways, if you can please go and update your plugin to v1.4.9. After you try it out please let me know if this version fixes the annoying issue you guys were facing.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Sorry for the delay. I checked it again and it seems to be fine now. Thanks very much.

@wpfangirl Thanks for reconfirming. Can you please edit your review now? It would be really helpful.

Thanks.

Alas, the notice came back…though it’s possible it’s partly an issue of caching, even though so far as I know most caching doesn’t apply to the back end. It goes away when I dismiss it, but then tends to reappear.

Hi, if my guess is right then the notice came back after you run the WordPress update to v4.7.

If that is the case then I would like you to know that when you run WordPress core update, it clear all transients and object cache. That’s why it came back. Just click close and it will go away.

Hi @wpfangirl,
I have just released v1.5.1 with a complete fix for the welcome notice issue. Now no matter what server you are, what kind of caching system you have, once you dismiss the welcome notice, it will never show up again unless you delete the plugin completely and then again re-install it.

Please try out the new update and let me know.

Also I will really appriciate if you consider editing your review for this plugin.

I will test that right now. I haven’t actually upgraded to 4.7 on the site that I have it installed on, because I need to do some testing first. But I’ve done plugin upgrades. However, the notice seemed to pop back up whenever I moved to a new admin screen, without my having to make any updates. I should test in more environments (e.g. does this only happen on a production server on WP Engine, or does it also happen on a local dev server) but haven’t had time. I will do that and check back. And if it works now I will edit the review, assuming I can figure out how. (Never done that before.)

Hurray! It’s fixed now, and I think the new message is much better. Still looking for a way to edit the original review, though.

You can edit your review from here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/wp-server-stats/reviews/

Just click edit on the initial review. I’m still working of making it better without depening on any framework.

But please edit your review.

There is no edit button on the original review. I can only reply to it, not edit it.

Also, I’m getting a “plugin generated unexpected output” error:

wp-server-stats/wp-server-stats.php
Notice: A session had already been started – ignoring session_start() in /home/rhymesw6/public_html/wpfangirl.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-server-stats/wp-server-stats.php on line 40

This is not an error some other plugin that you use may have also use PHP session and it hasn’t closed the session properly. That is why when WP Server Stats telling PHP to start a session it is saying a session is already active, no need to start again.

Also regarding the review editing, when you visit https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/wp-server-stats/reviews/ and scroll down to the bottom, you will see a section like this: https://puu.sh/sPvl8/f5dcf3877b.jpg to edit your review.

Hi @wpfangirl,
have you got any time to edit your review yet? I’ve already mentioned the process about how to do that in my last comment. Also if you can, please consider donating some amount for the plugin.

Thanks.
