Brought my site down too, yesch… If only a fraction of the seven thousand sites had auto-update on means they are all white page of death.

As an aside – if you only have one author on the blog, you can get rid of the blog author link on every post by modifying “content.php”, line 31 by commenting out the PHP that generates the link:

<p class="author alignleft"><?php //_e( 'Posted by', 'mystique' ); ?> <?php //the_author_posts_link(); ?></p>

Same problem – subdomain dashboards worked, but logging into a secondsite domain dashboard did not, got cookie errors.

Changed to false in wp-config.php:

define(‘SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL’, false);

And the dashboard of all of them now work.

It is a quirk of the way the SSL certificate works via Cloudflare (as elaborated on above, WordPress doesn’t know it is running SSL) and that I use a SI-Contact shortcode in a custom theme which loads the contact form on every page.

Done

I have been using the Google calendar for a month now and haven’t look back. After I disabled this plugin, I was using Google Webmaster Tools and noticed that the number of pages/links on my site dropped by over 50,000. In other words, the Google bot was indexing a crap load of calendar links. I was glad to get rid of the useless pages.

Yah, that worked for me too. The IPN was reporting:

Validation error: PayPal IPN response from a different email address () Order status changed from pending to on-hold.

Oops.

I think the most recent version of W3 Total Cache fixed this problem.

@qrafts – I added code that does what you want to the post you referenced.

A simple filter to disable a user-specified payment gateway when a product with a user-specified category is added to the shopping cart

/*
 * A simple filter to disable a user-specified payment gateway when a product with a user-specified category is added to the shopping cart
 *  - Note:  If multiple products are added and only one has a matching category, it will remove the payment gateway
 * Requires:
 *    payment_NAME : One of the five hardcoded Woocommerce standard types of payment gateways - paypal, cod, bacs, cheque or mijireh_checkout
 *    category_ID :   The ID of the category for which the gateway above will be removed.  Get the ID by clicking on the category under Products -> Categories and reading the "tag_ID" in the address bar
 *                             i.e. https://ubuntu.humble.lan/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?action=edit&taxonomy=product_cat&tag_ID=20&post_type=product <-- the tag_ID is 20

Add it to your theme’s functions.php

I will turn it into a plugin for a few $$$ if anybody is interested.

Likely due to a recently introduced database caching bug that leaves a growing number of files behind (tens of thousands of them) in the cache directory.

See https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/cache-not-clearing-get-white-screen-instead?replies=8

to clear the cache manually if the plugin can not.

Sean.

Lol, that won’t work because there are way too many file to clear the cache which times out PHP…

I’ve been clearing the cache via an SSH bash script:

#!/bin/bash
echo "Running clear command"
rm -rf /home/<complete directory to your blog/>/blog/wp-content/cache/*
echo "Cleared"

and replace “<complete directory to your blog>” with the exact directory, i.e. /home/myusername/http/wp-content/cache/*

Few shared hosts give you access to the command line though.

(FYI – Running a bash script via PHP, although possible, will likely fail too)

GL.

No, W3TC needs the config folder

Either through FTP by deleting everything under the cache and w3tc directory or through SSH.

FTP will take hours if the cache is large as it has to recurse into the directory.

Best is probably to ask your host to do it, as it’s in their best interest not to have a huge number of useless files floating around.

Likely because your cache is humungous – https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/wp-contentcache-folder-at-20-gb

W3 database caching creates an enormous mess.
