Please disregard this comment. I worked out solution. Thanks!

Same thing happens to my site. Having the background image flash before page content does not look good at all. Is there a workaround or way to fix this?

Thanks

Yeah 3.3 is a slight step backwards imho. Still love WordPress, but with the same config, optimizing tables, running w3tc w/ XCache, minifying and combining scripts and stylesheets, along w/ just about everything else it takes to improve page load speed, #page take forever to load in my twenty eleven child theme.

You’re right ipstenu… my bad. W3TC is cool. It was WP Link Directory… what is now becoming a fossil plugin. I’m going to see if there is any magic I can work to bring it up to speed with multisite or atleast see if the developer can point me in the right direction.

My apologies blasting this thread, but something tells me this latest update bug is an issue with W3 Total Cache. I was in the process of reactivating my plugins and the error reoccurred when I attempted to activate W3TC.

With this otherwise incredible plugin, I have had quite a few problems with W3TC and multisite, particularly with writing .htaccess, and object cache bringing 404 errors on my subdirectories.

A fairwarning to all multisite newbies: If you are using W3TC make sure it is deactivated EVERYWHERE before updating.

Ok all better. This is like multisite 101. When all else fails make sure to manually disable all plugins across your sites by going into MYSQL and running this query for each of your sites:

SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name = ‘active_plugins’;

Then reinstall WordPress and refresh the page. This is the quintessential step in updating anything multisite and the one I seldom remember. Live and learn I guess.

I’m totally lost. I just went to update my multisite install and recieved the error Call to undefined function wp_get_current_user(). I went into phpmyadmin and manually disabled all plugins (which is what I should have done beforehand, but hindsight’s 20/20).

Now I can’t access my root site or any of my sites in sub-directories. I’m having flashbacks to the white screen of death.

If anyone can help I would truly appreciate it.

Check out CloudFlare. They are a free cloud-based proxy server that acts like a CDN. I noticed a tremendous boost in my page loads. Might not be ideal for larger sites, but if you’re just starting off I like this option.

Hey Everyone,

Arne, first off thanks for the great work you did making this plugin and for returning an email regarding a suggestion I made to load JS in the footer with wp enqueue script.

Going to the original Colorbox website they seem to be able to load iframes through Colorbox using . This sounds like a parent/child nesting hierarchy issue in the coding of the plugin.

I’m not a programmer, but I have some design/development knowledge and that would be my guess.

I use XCache as my opcode cache and have tried both WP-Supercache and Hyper Cache with Thaya Kareeson’s Wp-Minify plugin along with Wp-Smush It for image optimization. I should probably do some benchmark testing and since I just started looking into W3TC there is more to unveil…

I do believe the universal name of the game is to use gzip/mod deflate, have both a static and dynamic cache, and limit HTTP requests, load external css at the top, external js at the bottom, use CSS sprites and keep your files small. This might be an over simplification, but sometimes I just have to remind myself of what has already worked. I tend to over engineer my blog sometimes.

Best of luck and please let me know how it goes.

I prefer hypercache over super cache, but that’s just me. I would also check out Yoast’s rundown here.

Opcode caching with Xcache will greatly reduce your overhead. Some hosting companies do not allow you to set it up. If you are running on a shared host you would want to contact them first.

To set up xcache on a shared host follow these directions.

Wp-minify is a good plugin, but it doesn’t work well with many plugins. Use with caution.

Best,

Dustin

Figured it all out. They all were great together. Now I just have to get Viper’s Quicktags and Wp-Minify to play nice with eachother.
