Robin

That solves it. Thank you very much for your super quick support :)!

That’s wild: The update to Version 6.0.7 has done it for me!

And just to answer your question: I don’t use WP-Optimize as a caching plugin, but only for its database cleanup :).

Everything seems okay now, after I’ve contacted my hoster. Thank you for your assistance!

I notice that there are no .js files under “/wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/(.*).js”. Does the expression “(.*)” really account for subfolders?

Because if not, maybe there need to be several .js and .css exceptions, all of which point to the files under “/wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/vendor/” and “/wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/src/resources” individually? And the same for the Event Tickets add-on?

I had this notion because my front page sometimes throws a console error now that points to “var tribe_tickets_rsvp” in a minified .js file. I wondered how this variable could come up in a minified .js file even though they should be on the exception list.

Hey Chad!

There is no point in time where I remember this working correctly. However, this whole website is relatively new, so I don’t know if that means much :-/.

I have already done what you suggested, as you can see under point 3 of my OP :). While this has taken care of a lot of other problems (no styling, search not working, etc.), this one still persists.

Thank you for your assistance!

I cannot find any other .htaccess files above the public_html folder.

Neither could I find much relating to static files in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf nor /etc/apache2/sites-available/jadestartupbox.jade-hs.de.conf.

My site is a subdomain of our university hosting structure. I have a virtual server via Virtualmin.

I am starting to think, that only our university data center can help me out as the problem seems to stem from the server configuration?

As it is not possible to upload images here, maybe this link will help you instead – perhaps even more so?

When you look under Waterfall -> Fonts, you can see that gtnicon.ttf is exceptionally large in comparison to all my other fonts.

Thank you for considering my issue :)!

And yes, all “Set cache control header” options are enabled and set to “cache with max-age”.

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

I never did thank you: One version later and my first point has already been taken care of. That’s support :)!

I hope it is in your interest that I am writing this here instead of opening another thread :)! It seems closely related to me, as I have the following problem/request:

In my icon box, I want only the button to link to another website. As of now, however, the icon and the heading are both anchored as well, since I have to link via parent. Maybe you could implement a link field in the button block of the icon box?

Fixed! Here’s what my host has found out:
“If namebased virtual hosts are used on a Debian or Ubuntu server and the DNS entry of the virtual server is a CNAME then the website cannot be accessed locally on the server. Of course this also applies to curl.”

Thank you for chiming in, Tom, but that’s our old website which is not hosted by the same group as our new website. jadestartupbox is the subdomain for jade-hs.de. Formerly, jadestartupbox was its own domain.

My cURL version is 7.68.0, about 2,5 years old. Unfortunately, my host will not update it in our Shared Hosting environment.

He’s also stumped for an answer if it comes to WordPress and cannot tell me why the loopback is failing. He wants the URL that cURL is accessing from me to look into it, but I don’t know what URL that would be. Do you?

This was way too easy… and exactly what I wished for. Thank you so much!
