In reply to: [Preload LCP Image] Browser Console ErrorHi Eric,
Thanks for your patience.
I’ve got a fix, but I’ve been unable to push it to the WordPress repository just yet, but I’ve uploaded it to Github if you want to preview it and comfortable with downloading a plugin from there?
I should push it in the next week or two when my life is a bit less hectic!

In reply to: [Preload LCP Image] Browser Console ErrorHi Eric,
Are you using any plugin to generate any sort of WebP? Or serve images differently?
I think there’s a potential bug in something like WebP Express in that it doesn’t detect the file type. I am working on a fix that will allow you to specify the file type explicitly, which will be a bit of a workaround but seems to be a bit of an edge case (though oddly reported twice in the last 24 hours, so I suspect it may be something to do with WordPress 6.4.3…).
The mobile image will only be preloaded on mobiles (or if you send a mobile agent, basically usingwp_is_mobile()
), so that’s expected behaviour.Forum: Reviews
In reply to: [WP eBay Product Feeds] Not very good for listing your own ebay productsHello Internet,
As the plugin author I’m just to expand on this review based on questions asked as it isn’t entirely accurate.
My plugin does allow you to list an individual seller’s auctions. However the solutions I’m aware of tends to use affiliate feeds that previously used eBay Partner Network (ePN) to display the feeds. This was unacceptable to the OP as detailed in this thread here – https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/how-to-show-products-from-my-own-ebay-store/ . I offered solutions that do exist, such as RSSGround, which – whilst require generation of affiliate feeds, does require a paid for account.Alas when the original description was written the preferred way to generate feeds (using affiliate feeds using ePN, which 99% of the users of my plugin used at the time) was closed down by ePN. Many sellers have used other feed generators (such as RSSGround, but there are others) to create and maintain their shops using WP eBay Product Feeds.
Auction Nudge, whilst a free service, does disclose that they take an affiliate commission on any product sold through their plugin – https://www.auctionnudge.com/about, using ePN.(For the avoidance of doubt: I don’t begrudge or in any way criticise Auction Nudge! They are open and transparent with their offering. It’s a solution that works for them and their clients! We tended to operate in different markets anyway and is a good solution if you’re not bothered about giving away affiliate income).
So I’m a bit baffled as to why the OP was so insistent in finding a solution using my plugin but not giving any affiliate income away to a third party, only to do it and promote it. If they’ve had a change of heart, then that’s fine and I welcome their decision, but it seems unfair to mark down the review in that case.If they didn’t know and they now do this approach (which suggests a lack of research), then I’d encourage the OP to code their own solution, as somebody who operates in this market, I don’t believe anything solution exists out of the box.

In reply to: [WP eBay Product Feeds] How to show products from my own ebay store?Hi There,
Let me explain that line.
For the longest time the easiest way for individuals to sell was to sign themselves up as an affiliate on eBay Partner Network themselves and create a feed of their own products to sell. In effect there would have been an affiliate middleman but the middleman would be you. This was done as a lot of the solutions in the place at the time would – I’ll be honest – lie to sellers and cream off the affiliate income themselves.eBay, in about 2021, switched off the feed part leading the Partner Network, meaning there was a scramble to create and maintain a way for sellers to sell. Sadly most of them have closed, which is why I recommend RSS Ground as it seems to be the one that mimics the original functionality closest that is still going. Alas it’s a paid for service.
There may be other solutions, or seller feeds that exist within eBay that will allow you to create your own feed without going through an affiliate. However I’m not aware of them.
I hope that clarifies things.

Unfortunately, we use the affiliate system to use this. I don’t think there’s a way of generating your own feeds to the best of my knowledge.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Preload LCP Image] what if my LCP is text?Hi There!
Text isn’t the reason for this plugin. From running the link you shared through the Google Pagespeed Testing Tool, you don’t get the warning “Preload the image used by the LCP element in order to improve your LCP time”.
This plugin solely fixes this warning, as you don’t have this warning, you don’t need the plugin ??Hi there,
Doing some digging, it wasn’t a huge upgrade (3.2.6 > 3.2.8), however we went from v2 (Legacy) to v3, to use the reCAPTCHA.
It was the free version.
Obviously if it’s our setup then that’s totally understandable ?? (I inherited the site), but I cannot imagine why it would be “None”.Hi Jesse,
Thanks for the purchase! It’s always appreciated.I try not to answer premium enquiries on the free forum – as to be honest I check this only occasionally, and there are better ways to get premium support (via email for example – see here – https://www.wpemailcapture.com/support/). But to give you an answer: I don’t know. It’s quite a low priority at the moment.
Could you however use the GDPR and a privacy policy fields to mimic said signup?
Hope that helps.Hi there,
Yes! You can make them mandatory.
As of right now they’re only text fields, however I’m looking to extend to other fields as well.Thanks.

In reply to: [WP Flipclock] Countdown from 5 minutesHi there,
Yeah it only counts down to a date.
What I would recommend is a small bit of PHP to determine 5 minutes for the user, and then feed that into the shortcode using<?php do_shortcode ?>
Hope that helps.

In reply to: [WordPress Email Marketing Plugin - WP Email Capture] reCAPTCHA not showingHi there,
It appears to be showing correctly. I can see the reCAPTCHA icon on the page.
Within v3 reCAPTCHA it’ll appear to the bottom and to side, not near the form (you can see an example here – https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/v3.html?ref=techmoon – look in the bottom right hand corner for the icon.Your site has a similar icon (though it his hidden behind a cookie popup on load). Hope that helps!
