Slimstat 2.9.4 not working with W3 Total Cache (JS Mode)

Hi there,

the JS code in 2.9.4 is different, and I am honestly having a hard time understanding what the problem is, since you are not upgrading all the pieces consistently ?? You cannot expect to have a piece of 2.9.3 to work flawlessly with a piece of 2.9.4.

About the data deletion, you’re asked TWICE if you are sure, and WARNED that all the data will be deleted, so if yuu still go ahead and proceed, then there’s nothing that I can do about it. I cannot leave a ‘dirty’ environment when the plugin is uninstalled, that is against WordPress’ guidelines.

As for the detection issue, unfortunately the database SlimStat relies upon ( browscap.ini ) hasn’t been updated in a while, so the heuristic detection is triggered. Hopefully they will release a new update soon. You may want to ask them if there’s a timeline set for that already.

Cheers,
Camu

I don’t think you fully understand my problem.

What do you mean by I am not upgrading the pieces consistently?

Data tracking no longer worked for me after upgrading from 2.9.3 to 2.9.4 so I did a full uninstall and installed 2.9.3 (THE PREVIOUS VERSION) because it was working for me.

I’m not sure what changed in 2.9.4 for it to stop tracking data.

What is different in the JS code in 2.9.4 that causes the tracking to stop?
(This was not announced in the change log)

So right now I have 2.9.3 installed and I have no problems with tracking.

About the data deletion: Yes I understand, but for times like this when tracking doesn’t work, I had to reinstall an older version for tracking to work, which resulted in data being deleted.

About this iOS issue:
I found this bug report and the problem has been reported: https://drupal.org/node/1907886

And there is a discussion here:
https://groups.google.com/d/topic/browscap/GSgqVdYRt7g/discussion

Supposedly there is a fix if you add this line to the Mobile Safari 6.0 section, but the plugin uses a cache file that implements this different it seems so I can’t quite figure out how to add the line without messing anything up.

[Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone*CPU*OS 6_1* like Mac OS X*)*AppleWebKit/*(*KHTML, like Gecko*)*Version/6.0*Mobile/*Safari/*]Parent=Mobile Safari 6.0

I’m having the same problem I’ll have to go back to the previous version (2.9.3)

Any ideas as to why it broke in the new version?

This is happening to multiple people. Please don’t ignore this problem.

Post the URL where this is happening. Is it

If that’s the URL, please upgrade to 2.9.4 again so that I can see what’s going on.

Best,

Okay, I see what the problem is. You’re using the CDN, but unfortunately the javascript hasn’t still fully propagated, so disabling that option for a few days, should fix the issue.

Please keep us posted.

I’ll get back soon

And if it works, a vote for my plugin would be a nice way to say thank you ??

As for the iOS detection, this will be hopefully fixed in version 3.0.

Thanks it works now!

I would suggest putting a note by the feature letting users know that when the plugin updates, the CDN takes time to update.

Since I use CloudFlare, I guess I don’t need to use the CDN option because my site is already somewhat optimized.

Thanks for planning to fix the iOS detection! =)

I really like your plugin!

Thank you.
