enduro bikes

It’s a shame the support is terrible for this plugin. I really liked the features but without support it’s basically useless. It would be good if someone else could buy it and take over the development from here and support.

endurobikes, what version were you using previously? What version are you using now, that is 80% slower?

woolfcom,

Hi, I think the best version was 3.3.9 with WP All Import – WooCommerce Add-On Pro 1.3.5

A couple of features were added or improved with the next versions but they seem slower and I found the interface much better in this version as it’s cleaner and I like how all of step 3 is on one page.

I also don’t especially like how you are forced to use the /plugins/wpimport/upload directory now in new versions, I liked to choose to use the wp-content/upload directory. If I try to choose that directory now it has many problems.

I have yet to test it more before I can assess the slowness part. I will try it on various options to see if it’s a setting issue that can now be changed. It has changed a lot since earlier versions last year and I have found you need to rebuild some parts of the process. For example when I used an apostrophe in “replace queries” in taxidermies it now would not let you do that in later versions, you had to use double quotes. There were other things too, can’ remember off hand! I had to rebuild some of my imports but I will be putting it through some hard testing over coming weeks and I will then be able to determine how slow it is etc.

I did notice there was a new setting for images that you can select to allow the plugin to search for other files. You might want to try turning that off and see if it improves it.

have you tried the pro wp all import 4.1.2 version which I think was only released a few days ago?

I have to say though it’s a great plugin, probably one of the best I have seen and I have used many wordpress plugins over the years. It’s good they have added new features and improved it little by little and all the issues I had with it have had fixes in the later releases. Just the little things that they have improved has made it very nice now. I will try the new version when I get time, hopefully that will fix the slow performance issues…

I’m not sure I like the step by step method in later versions, I might have preferred the simple 3 step process how it was before with all the main features on step 3. Now it seems a lot of steps, sort of noob friendly. But they have made some big improvements with the features.

I also find the newer version extremely slow. I will revert back to old versions as it’s that slow. Maybe it is 80% slower now.

OK, I added the code from the 2nd link to my theme child theme functions.php. it did not work so I deleted it and tried direct in the parent theme functions.php. It still did not work so then I activated the default WordPress Twenty Fifteen theme, refreshed and tried in that and it still did not work.

This is using a Linkshare Datafeed.

But then I tried the first link to the code as below:

/**

 * Convert ampersands.

 * 

 * Changes "&" to "&".

 */

add_filter( 'wccal_filter_url', 'wporg_6700183_handle_ampersands', 20, 2 );

function wporg_6700183_handle_ampersands( $external_link, $post_id ) {

    $external_link = str_replace( "&", "&", $external_link );

    return $external_link;

}

and it now finally works, thank heavens, thankyou!

Ok, thanks for the reply, I will test this out soon and get back with my experience.

Yep affiliate links for Linkshare still don’t work and probably ShareAsale too. I’m surprised others have not posted how they also don’t work? I import my links into wordpress with a datafeed import plugin. I wonder if there is something I need to change with the affiliate_url field? It’s frustrating that this still has not been addressed after nearly a year now.

great support ha, time to find a better plugin that works with support…

OK, I have realized this is not working properly as if I click my logo or the home link (after going to the search page) it seems to be inside a frame or something.

Maybe if I post everything I have so far it might help (replaced some private details with “x”:

This is my webpage with the code below https://www.sydneytravel.info/hotels/ :

<div id="SearchBox">&nbsp;</div>
<script src="https://xxxxxxxxxxx.SearchBoxV2.1.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var AgodaSearch = new AgodaSearchBox({
cid: xxxxxx,
filterCityName: 'Sydney',
fixedCityName: false,
fixedCityNameVisible:true,
hotelID: '',
checkInDateBefore:3,
night:2,
language:1,
currencyCode: 'AUD',
newWindow: false,
header: 'https://www.sydneytravel.info/?header=1',
footer: '',
style: 'Default',
Element: 'SearchBox'
});
</script>
<!-- Default,CmsLanding,Style1,Style2,Style3,Style6-->

this is the part I have in my child functions:

add_action( 'parse_request', function() {
	if ( !empty($_GET['header']) ) {
		get_header();
		do_action('wp_footer');
		die;
	} elseif ( !empty($_GET['footer']) ) {
		do_action('wp_header');
		get_footer();
		die;
	}
} );

OK, I just used the header as when I used the footer it seemed to show the whole page as the footer. I was not able to put it in an iframe as I don’t have control of the external site and the ad code would only allow a link, not an iframe.

But anyway it seems to be working OK like this so that should do , thanks for helping.

Ok thanks for that code. What else do I need to do? Would I need to edit the .httacces file?

OK thanks, I probably don’t need to now anyway as I have added more content to the page but it would be a good option for the future.

That sounds like a good idea using the endpoints. I looked it up but I have not found an easy way to do this. Would anyone know the best way to make the endpoints (in the .httaccess file I assume)?

I think we are all getting a bit confused here. Just forget that they are images, think of them as files. I want to stop people getting access to these files?

I know this can be done with .httaccess or through root access which I have to my VPS. I thought people here might know, maybe not, I might need to try a hosting forum or something/…

thanks anyway
