i made a little video to explain the two issues better:
https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cFn3YloS2d

it would be great if there was a solution or trick for the missing css. this has been a stumbling “block” in other projects.

Hi Takayuki

i believed it’s not the plugin or theme, but it was ??

at the end an under construction plugin was the culprit – “5sec Maintenance Mode”. is a while that it’s been updated, guess it’s time to switch to a new plugin (this one has access link to show to customer, which is cool)

Thanks and have a nice day

ah ok, i get it now. Simply setting the right CSS for the logo when the update Screen page is loaded… doesn’t sound very “according to documentation”, but i take it ?? since there doesnt seem to be a cleaner path.

i think there should be a standard way to define the icon, especially since the code is actually there to pickup an icon in the plugin object. it could be done by default filename in the repo or local installation, or by defining it in the header of the plugin file (together with version, author etc.).

anyway, it’s a detail. Thanks for taking the time to explain a solution to me!

No worries!! ??

And happy holidays too!

Hi Kat

i checked it out on another page and BWP definetly does set max_execution_time generally to 0. i installed phpinfo plugin, as soon as BWP is active, max_execution time 0.

here is screenshot where you see the code that is running on every page in the backend and is setting the value to 0:

im not sure it’s a big deal. it just potentially opens up sites to infinite running loops on the server.

Greets!

Hi
how can it be applied to anything? i need to apply it to the plugin so it shows up in Update Dashboard (not in the admin menu on the left)

this is the function used in the example:
register_post_type( ‘Products’, $args );

how would i do the same with a plugin?

usually the icon would be copied to the assets folder in the wordpress repo and simply be named icon128-128.png (something like that). i tried this already, in the update target as well as on the testplatform).
but we are not in the wordpress repo. see screenshot:
https://wpretarget.codepage.net/plugin_icon.png

how would i get our icon showing up in the update list?

thanks!

Hi! Thanks. But this is somehow all for custom post types, not for plugins.
we would like to have a plugin icon here:
https://wpretarget.codepage.net/plugin_icon.png

is it even possible to get an own png or svg in there or only standard dashicons?

Thanks!!

it’s not fully automatic

Assuming full backup:
– Download backup zip file
– extract sql file from zip file
– delete all mysql db tables in phpmyadmin (or whatever you got)
– import previously extracted sql file

– delete all files in wordpress directory (or move them to a temporary subfolder, just to be sure…)
– upload backup zip file
– extract backup zip file

voila ??

but maybe there’s an easier way. but actually, it’s really fast and personally i apreciate that the plugin is not overloaded with code to automatically restore.

Hi Kat!
i did open support request. But this weekend i tumbled upon the problem:

his is a page im supposed to refresh. i copied the setup to have all customer data. some minutes ago i noticed, that wordpress settings for date/time are set to custom and are empty ??

i set them to default settings and after that the names suddenly apeared in bwp. everything has an explanation ??

i noted this in the request too.

Thanks!

Hi Kat. Thanks for replying. The names created and downloaded are fine. eg
neu-eve-event-info-1510778124-database-2017-12-03-00-33-02.zip

also content, all there. and no errors in console frontend or in error log on the servers

o.O

Hi Kat

fantastic. great. yes, the plugin is only on network-admin-level, which is perfect, all sites backed up from one place. but somehow it didn’t set the base-directory of the project right. this did the trick:

define( "HMBKP_ROOT", "/mnt/web223/c3/05/52842605/htdocs/testkompaktde" );

and the backup finally run thru and looks good, all backed up.

thanks!!

Thanks Kat!

Thanks Kat! Yes we are working on it. i got a feedback that it might be connected with my hosts running on litespeed. i tried the suggestions made by bwp from here:
https://bwp.hmn.md/knowledge-base/literspeed-servers/

i just tried htaccess tip on one page and it seemed to work. the backup run thru fast and without problems. i will test on other pages now.

Thanks! i did the activate support thing thru a page that is not working. hope we figure this out.

did you download the plugin from here, delete it in your installation and install the new download?
