It should certainly work on hostgator, actually the latest update was built and tested on a hostgator server.

Could you please provide the output of the tests this plugin does, excluding any identifiable info?

Thanks to the developer for such excellent feedback.

I would make an educated guess and say that the white page issue is related to the php binary timing out. This indicates you have some inefficient actions going on, usually this is caused from inefficient plugins that add a lot of filters or add inefficient actions to key filters.

That is likely what is happening, the workaround is to increase your php max_execution_time, within your php.ini or try modifying the ini_set in the plugin. 120 would be a good start.

The other possibility is that your webhost has used linux kernel limits to limit how much mem/procs/stack your php binary or apache thread is allowed to use.

Regardless, any problems with this plugin whatsoever is a high indication that there is some limiting factor with your current site. Whether it is a greedy plugin/theme function that is called by a filter or hook, or an expensive/redundant Database query, there is certainly room for improvement. Per the suggestions by the developer, you should attempt to track down the issue, using xhprof/xdebug or an sql profiler such as SQLmon. Or try deactivating every plugin until the problem goes away, which will tell you which plugin is poor. I would also suggest taking a look at the list of registered filters and actions such as using the AA Debug Viewer plugin, which can also help pinpoint the bottlenecks.

This happens when it’s redirected.

So if you goto https://x.com/wp-login.php and it redirects you to https://www.x.com/wp-login.php it will prompt you twice, ditto for https redirects so if you goto https://x.com/wp-login.php and it redirects you to https://x.com/wp-login.php it will ask you twice.

I avoid this by using SSL like this: https://www.askapache.com/htaccess/htaccess.html#Fix_double-login_prompt And by making my bookmarks point to the final url and not a url that will be redirected.

Yeah it appears your htaccess file has malware in it.

Done. Future version will give more control over this, and test for it, since it depends on the Apache setup and Order configs.

Please upgrade to the latest version. Also, what are you trying to do with a short code? There is no short code for this plugin and never has been one, I will look into possibly adding one though.

Ya photoM it’s a 1-off procedure, from now on you can upgrade every time a new version comes out without having to do anything. The goal was to be able to just hit update and not have to re-configure or enable anything.

This is a big update, it will allow me to develop it more actively, and finally start adding some great new features I’ve been thinking about.

Sorry for the trouble, please continue to share any and all feedback/issues you have with it.

There ya go, fixed in 5.0.0. Please try it out and let me know of any other issues.

To recover your old settings you need a backup of the database. It would be stored in wp_options.option_name = “askapache_google_404_options”;

Fixing now…

Thanks Jan. Hey try the new version and see if that fixes the problem.

Hmm. Very strange, I just released a major update with many new modules, and added some additional code to fix this issue. Thanks for the clear bug report.

Works now, and is much faster.

Install Firefox firebug extension or use chrome developer tools. Then clear your browser cache and exit the browser. Then start the browser and open the net panel of firebug or dev tools. Now goto your homepage and you will see which file is causing this.

My guess is a plugin or theme js or CSS file, Ajax request, or maybe it’s just happening to you as a logged on user..

Fixed.

Look for an update within 2 weeks.
