Unable to fetch Page Speed results.

  • I have already setup PageSpeed API key but when I set “Accept requests from these HTTP referrers” values in Google APIs website, The w3tc dashboard said “Unable to fetch Page Speed results.”
    If I leave “Accept requests from these HTTP referrers” blank in the Google APIs, it just works. But I don’t want to leave this blank.

    What referrers I can set to make it works?

  • As you once stated, when I remove all defined referrers in the API config, w3tc is then able to fetch Page Speed results. Add the http string back in, and it breaks again. :/

    Sure wish I knew more about this.

    I confirm, this worked 10 hrs ago… I checked several times over half an hour, and added a second website to the API referrer list, which also worked. I thought I was done.

    Now, broken.

    My websites are hosted at GoDaddy… not the the Managed WordPress service, but the general cPanel web hosting service.

    I know for certain that GoDaddy cPanel hosting is not designed for heavy loads… but my sites have zero activity. I don’t think it’s a performance issue… and also, with no referrer, it works, so, performance isn’t the issue.

    It is quite likely related to the way the request is being made.

    Still, it makes no sense that I had it working last night, and now it is broken. I wasn’t drinking! It really was working. Long enough to setup another website.

    Very strange.

    Kimberly clearly has the true fix for the HTTP referrer issue, but for those of you looking for a quick and simple fix: if your site has a static IP, go to the API Manager in your Google Developer’s Console and switch from HTTP referrers to IP addresses and enter it there. No / or * after the final number.

    That should do the trick.
