Thanks for your quick reply Tobias ??

The sorting and search appear to have simply started working. The page must have been cached somewhere besides my browser, Litespeed and Cloudflare. Weird!

Hi Aaron

Thanks for your quick replies! Clearing the cache fixed it.

It seems to be working nicely.

Thanks!

Hi Adam

Well, I can do all that, but it’s time-consuming. I’m migrating about 50 sites to a WordPress multisite.

My shell scripts allow me to migrate most sites within 10 minutes. (The scripts deactivate Wordfence before migration.)

It would be really helpful to have:
– A wp-cli command to fix the wfHoover table problem
– A wp-cli command to remove extended protection (especially important for non-multisite migrations)
– or the linux command line equivalents

Thanks
Jackie

No problem ??

I didn’t really do anything that would have fixed this but suspect that dns was involved because the problems occurred within 48 hours of the multisite’s hosting transfer.

My primary domains were .com.au, while the secondary domains I checked were .com domains.

The .com.au domains started working immediately after the transfer (I’d lowered the TTLs a couple of days before).

From Australia, .com domains take a lot longer to ripple through the DNS than .com.au domains – about 48 hours.

At this point the only secondary domain that isn’t working is the one I was testing with. I deleted the A record and tried to create a CNAME to the primary domain. That didn’t work, so I replaced the A record. That’s the only significant change I made. The Cpanel alias, redirect and zone file resemble those of the secondary domains that are working. Therefore, I suspect that the domain isn’t redirecting because I deleted and recreated the A record.

So the upshot is, if you get this problem and you’re within 48 hours of an IP change, do nothing and try waiting!

I loved this plugin – until it broke when I upgraded to PHP 7.2. Had it running on 60 websites. I’d make a donation to get it running again.

Thanks Brandon, will do ??

Thanks Brandon, that’s good to know.

How come Wordfence is telling me that the Jetpack files in my installation differ from the ones in the repository? I have autoupdate turned on.

Thanks
Jackie

Same problem here – lots of bogus new admin email notifications from wordpress.com. Wordfence is also ringing alarm bells about Jetpack:

This file belongs to plugin “Jetpack by WordPress.com” version “6.1” and has been modified from the file that is distributed by www.ads-software.com for this version

Perhaps the release hasn’t been properly tested or managed. But I’m worried about a security breach.

I explained the problem to W3 Total Cache support but received no solution so I ended up replacing W3 Total Cache with WP Super Cache on my multisite blogs but leaving it enabled on my main multisite blog.

I have the same problem.

I can’t authorise W3 Total Cache’s Cloudflare extension on a multisite blog – the process hangs for a moment after selecting the zone, then returns me to the settings screen.

Any sign of a fix?

Thanks
Jackie

This was a weird one.

When I create a new website, I use software that copies a template WordPress website. The template website must have had Wishlist Member installed on it at some stage because there’s a file:
/home/bvat/public_html/wp-content/uploads/.htaccess

That contained:
# BEGIN WishList Member Attachment Protection
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|pdf|bmp|css|js)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?wlmfile=$1 [L]
# END WishList Member Attachment Protection
# Kill PHP Execution
<Files *.php>
deny from all
</Files>

We changed the RewriteCond line to:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|pdf|bmp|css|js|mp3)$

and mp3s started working again. I guess removing /home/bvat/public_html/wp-content/uploads/.htaccess would also work.

I still have no idea why mp3s were working a couple of weeks ago and suddenly stopped.

Hi jkhongusc

Ok, it’s working!

Yes you’re right, you can’t map your main WP multisite domain to another hostname.

I’ve set up my Cloudfront CDN distribution as ecommercewebsitedesign.webhive.com.au. Not the prettiest URL, but it contains my key words and should work.

I used the Multisite Clone Duplicator to copy the webhive.com.au to a blog on the multisite (origin.webhive.com.au). That’s now my Cloudfront origin.

I replaced WP Super Cache with W3 Total Cache to optimise origin.webhive.com.au and spent 2 days fiddling with the settings. W3 Total Cache sped my site up by a factor of four!

W3 Total Cache handles a lot of the difficult stuff. The settings allow Cloudfront to host images, CSS, Javascript, page content etc. W3 Total Cache updates the links automatically.

All good and now the site’s a lot faster!

Thanks!
Jackie

Hi jkhongusc

I’m trying to get my website to load in under 2 seconds. To achieve that, I’d like to store everything on a CDN.

My website is webhive.com.au. (No www).

I considered cloning webhive.com.au (the main blog on my multisite) to another multisite blog, let’s say origin.webhive.com.au and using that as the origin server for the CDN.

I guess the cdn distribution needs a different name again, say cdn.webhive.com.au. So cdn.webhive.com.au would copy the content from origin.webhive.com.au and serve that up. I’d need to ask search engines not to index origin.webhive.com.au.

All my marketing says webhive.com.au. I suppose I’d need to 301 redirect all webhive.com.au URLs to cdn.webhive.com.au.

Does that sound like it’ll work?
Thanks!
