really nice script but high loading times

Hi

Thanks for your feedback.

The script doesn’t take time to load, but it may take a while to retrieve the status of your Twitch channel from the twitch.tv API, especially if you have many ones. It’s why the status tags may take up to a few seconds to show up.

It would be a bit complicated to add the status tags in the HTML generated by the server because there is a lot of different cases to deal with (menus, posts, widgets etc) and it would be no longer possible to add the tags wherever you wants using jQuery selectors.

However, the channel statuses are cached and it should be easy to add a cronjob to update it for example every 5 minutes, then use the cached values when loading the script before retrieving the actual statuses in AJAX.

I currently have some spare time to work on this project so I’ll see if I can improve this easily.

I improved the plugin to reduce the loading times to the minimum. Please upgrade to the latest version, you should see a significant improvement.

Hey Nicolas,

the plugin is still causing really high loading times on our website. “ajax.php” script of your plugin is loading to long or it does not respond at all.
