    what would happen if you change server domain name within WP?

    I noticed with the waterfall in a page tester that the default image for the grid still has my server IP (https://IP/~username/) and not the domain (https://domain.com) i just bought?

    I dont know if its linked but I have now lost my external featured image on the grid for NEW posts
    The old grids from the start is still pulling in the external featured images

    I hope this helps to debug it

    PS. dont forget

    update_option('siteurl','https://domain.com');
    update_option('home','https://domain.com');

    Hello,
    Changing the URL only like you described is not enough, please read here a complete recent manual to change your domain name.

    Again here … if you are using a caching plugin it’s unpredictable how this react by changing URL’s.
    I know this because it was resolved in time, without changing anything.
    Unless you have a slow hosting, don’t use the caching things … ??

    one last question if i may: you are pulling the 20 latest posts from the database yes? so max 20 posts from the database are the latest posts?

    If you choose latest post with short code: [gridwud slug=”wud-latest”] then the order of the tiles is most recent first, which is the standard order from WordPress if latest post is requested.
    The quantity to show is not 20, the 20 stands for the maximum loaded CSS values, if 20 is reached it starts again by CSS value 1.

    There is no maximum to show grids, there it loads only the tiles which are displayed at the moment.
    The read more button shows the next level of grids and loads them only if clicked.
    This is the reason why Grid WUD does not consume too much resources, there it loads only the items which are visible at that moment.

    Concerning the latest posts … same way to load/show the grids.

    Is this an answer to your question?

    I actually need a two tier filtering….

    1. pick latest 20 (value set in the admin) and randomise the display.

    2. pick the next 20 and then random that display

    Hello,
    This cannot be done, because it’s build on the WordPress Latest Post structure.
    The FIRST 20 grids you are showing, we can randomize, but the second (after read more button) not.

    This because he will randomize all grids by every click on the read more button.
    Sample with 5 grids and +5 by every button click:

    First view (ok):
    a1 a5 a4 a3 a2

    Click once on the button (ok):
    a1 a5 a4 a3 a2
    b5 b3 b1 b2 b4

    Click again on the button (not ok):
    a1 a5 a4 a3 a2
    b3 b5 b4 b1 b2 <- randomized again …
    c4 c3 c2 c5 c1

    From row 2 he will randomize again … all the grids …

    So this is not possible, the first 20 will be included in the next release to show in random order.
    After clicking the read more button it shows the new added grids in date order.

    New version ready: 1.3.9
    * Correction: Short code [order=”99″] works now also with slug=”wud-latest”.
    * Correction: Random order disabled by Read More button click.
