Hi Dave

Yes, I do have FORCE_SSL_ADMIN set to true.

Curious that it works on the page you linked to but not https://www.cadbloke.com/autocad-lt-missing-plot-styles/ nor others I looked at. I thought I saw it work intermittently, then I thought I was going mad. I suppose this is still not guarantee that I’m not going mad but at least I was right about that.

Let me know if you want me to test a version before you release it.

cheers

ps – sorry for the delay – I actually had a holiday, yay!

Hi Dave

My site is https://www.CADbloke.com I had a look with Fiddler and it doesn’t seem to be sending the request data. The spinner comes up in the search box and it connects via an SSL tunnel but the request seems ot have no body – nothing happens after that. Note that the SSL cert on my server is not in my site’s name because it is a shared server.

If it’s just me then it’s probably an ajax thing. I’ll look into it further over the xmas break (if I get around to it) and let you know if I find a clash

b3 Works on my site. eg. https://www.cadbloke.com/installing-acne-on-windows-7/

I haven’t added any new posts (long story :/) but it seems ok. Nice one. Thanks for fixing it so quickly, @mitcho.

Hiya

I’m also not getting any related posts but I spotted this error on my page…

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /...path.../yet-another-related-posts-plugin/class-cache.php on line 231

Running WP 3.3, Hybrid News – chile of Hybrid 1.0, I have a db prefix, wp super cache. YARPP 3.4.3b2, hotfix.

I tried the experiments plugin – it won’t build a cache.

I’m running it on https://www.CADbloke.com but I’ve disabled it for now – not too keen on directory listings in my posts.

I hope this helps you track down the problem.

Bump – this plugin is triggering warnings in Chrome about loading insecure scripts. I deleted it. I’m not so keen on getting hacked just because the dev ignores or doesn’t understand this post.

No “yellow” – good ! In that case, crisis over.

Thanks again, Dave

Hi Dave

It as working fine until either the upgrade to 3.1 or to the latest version of live search. I did them both at the same time so I can’t tell you which one changed things.

… Stop the presses, I think you can blame me for this one. I checked it in Chrome, where I am logged in and the search results returned drafts. Then I thought I’d check it in a browser where I wasn’t logged in so I used the Chrome Canary build. It runs as a separate process but it perhaps seems to share a cookie or 2 with the Mainstream version of Chrome. I’m not actually logged in in the Canary build. Odd

It behaves as expected in Internet Exploder (not logged in).

… ah, dammit, This just gets silly now. I’m thinkong of blaming WordPress at this stage. I tried it in Firefox, not logged in, and got all the drafts. Cleared all my cookies, got all the drafts. I cleared the active logins & restarted the browser – same thing. The page is cached and is the same html in Canary, Fireofx and IE8 so I dunno why IE doesn’t work the same (ok, I do but it’s not a nice thing to say).

I added the extra line from your first post and now it works fine, as expected. It shows me the drafts if I am logged in, which is kinda nice but was unexpected after I added the line to filter only published posts. I wonder if it’s a regression bug in WordPress?

I was testing it by searching for “yellow” at cadbloke.com. Let me know if it returns anything because, if it does, they’re all unpublished drafts, probably riddled with swearing.

I got this behaviour too but it was my fault. I was logged in as admin & I added a test-subscription using one of my email addresses. Clicking the confirmation link took me to the situation described above. Clicking the confirmation link in another browser where I was not logged in worked perfectly.

This is the behaviour I would expect. ie., it is working perfectly.

I wrote this just in case someone did the same thing.

Vote: Five stars! Great plugin.
Thanks

I’m getting the same warning, set to bleeding-edge after updating today. It says I’m using “You are using a development version (3.2-bleeding).”

The best tool I’ve found for compressing image sizes is RIOT at https://luci.criosweb.ro/riot/ It is also an Irfanview plugin. Both versions are free.

I compress things like screengrabs to 256 color PNGs with RIOT – it saves a lot of bytes for a barely noticeable difference.

Don’t let the PHP server compress them – it is far-less sophisticated than a good image editor

+1 I have this problem too. It’s a real shame that such a simple thing can derail such a useful plugin. I guess we’re getting what we paid for. ??

I was going to mention Mashable but it is broken there too. The images fade in but they are all pre-loaded.

donncha – I don’t cache the html for more than about 30 minutes. It’s the CSS, JS and image caching that buys you the speed. They’re generally static and safe to leave lying around. I wrote a post about it at https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/199/what-steps-can-i-take-to-optimize-wordpress-in-regard-to-server-load/340#340

That whole thread may be of interest to you. Actually, that whole forum would be of interest to all of us.

@donncha – wp-minify works really well with super-cache. The only tricky performance tweak I suggest to exclude any page-specific css & JS and just cop the hit on those pages. If you keep the combined & minifed CSS at the highest common denominator then you’re not continually downloading a new combined-minified file for each page simply because you need to add 1 or 2 files to it for that specific page. Wp-minify has settings to specifically include & exclude files

Client-side caching helps a lot here too. I find it makes the biggest difference of all. There’s nothing faster than a download that doesn’t need to download, or even ping for a 304. Hy host is a cheap, shared host. Have a look at the Pingdom graph on my blog post to see the difference it made. Ignore the rest – you probably already know this.

… answer – yes, it does cache per mobile user agent, as per https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/339075?replies=24#post-1493138
