Hi @vbarros123 , can you share some more information? I suspect the domain you mention is no longer pointing at the WordPress install, I can’t think of another reason for this 404 to appear, also because the server says it can’t find a 404 error document, this hints at an unconfigured (virtual) server. Does the page work on your normal domain?

Hm, that is unfortunate. Is it offline / in draft? Do other pages work? The 404 error is a hard 404 from the server, and not from WordPress, is the domain still pointing at the location where your WordPress install lives? I have to go now, will look into it in more detail this evening.

Hi @dimitrow , no problem. I’m glad it worked out. Please consider leaving a 5 star review if you have the time, it might help someone else find this plugin.

Have a great day!

Hi @dimitrow , tried to reproduce the issue on my local dev machine by moving the main site, but everything kept working.

However, the landing-page domains (such as mshapes.eu in your case) must point at the new root to be picked up by the WordPress install, which is in your case /home/username/elis.betaone.eu (if that is indeed where your WordPress is installed).

^ I am guessing this was the problem? I see mshapes.eu is working at the moment.

Did you fix it permanently or are you still working on it? Are you still using the plugin?

Sorry I could not get back to you sooner, had a lot of work that needed attention.

Let me know how you fixed it, kind regards, Joeri

Hi, I see what you mean, thank you for clarifying.

I am not really grasping the config yet, is betaone.eu a different website from elis.betaone.eu? Are you positive the domain mshapes.eu is pointing at the same webspace as elis.betaone.eu and there is the WordPress site with my plugin on it? Or is elis.betaone.eu something different?

Hoping to be able to solve this, Joeri

Hi @dimitrow , thank you for using my plugin and contacting me about this.

Looking at your shared page / domain, I also get a 403 error. My plugin can not trigger a 403 error as far as I know, so I am suspecting a webserver configuration error.

Can you reach your main domain and see your website, in a private browser window or in a new browser or device?

Can you see the pages alright if you access them directly (eg https://main.domain/secondary-domain in stead of https://secondary.domain )? And if not, do they work when you switch off Each domain a page?

Can you share your main domain ( new.domain2.com ) with me?

Hmmm… did you maybe create a new virtual host for your new domain, with a new root folder, and the other domains (of your landing pages) are still pointed at the old virtual host / root folder? (This can happen behind the same external ip.)

How did you move your site (which steps did you take)? Maybe it can shed some light on what is happening…

Let me know,
Kind regards,
Joeri

HI @tabasko ,

Thank you for using my plugin!

#ruigehond006_wrap is the correct element if you want to hide the bar.

Over the course of the evolution of the reading bar, elements have had to be added, to make it work consistently in a variety of situations. Now it consists of 3 elements, of which #ruigehond006_wrap is the outermost one, and indeed the one you want to hide. To minimise the chance of styles to clash I try to use unique prefixes in all my plugins, starting with ‘ruigehond‘ + plugin number. I am assuming nobody else uses those ??

Let me know if this satisfies your inquiry.

Have a great day!

Hi, I will close this thread now, as I believe your scenario works.

Please feel free to re-open or open a new thread if in fact it does not work, or if you have anything else you need assistance with.

Kind regards,
Joeri

Hi @uacl312 , great that it worked out! Many thanx for your kind review!

Hello again, turns out I made a little mistake while debugging the bar on your site. It works when you attach it to #main-nav, because that element actually sticks. The element you are using now, keeps scrolling (even though I understand you would use it because of the suggestive class names) hence the bar also keeps scrolling (until it reaches the top).

You can also switch off stick_relative in the reading bar settings as it has no effect I believe.

However there remains a small css ‘problem’: the direct div descendants of your #main-nav get a large padding left and right, this makes the reading bar (that is targeted by that rule) not start at the left. You can fix this simply by adding the following css (untested, let me know if it does not work):
#ruigehond006_wrap { padding-left:0; padding-right:0; }

Hope this restores a happy experience with my little plugin.

Love the site design btw, nice work!

Kind regards,
Joeri

Hi @uacl312, thank you for using my plugin and contacting me about your issue!

I see what you mean, this is not how I would like the bar to behave, so this will probably be a bugfix on my end. Working on it now. Will keep you posted here.

Kind regards,
Joeri

Hi @tenserd, thank you for sharing your experience and the function you created.

As my plugin is slightly more complicated I’d need to change some more internals to accomodate this functionality (it also keeps a list of valid posts for instance), but it definitely seems feasible.

Thanks again, kind regards,
Joeri

Hello @wpwebfix , thank you for using my plugin!

Is your homepage a page? Or a special post type? Or maybe an archive? It should behave the same as other pages, posts and archives.

If your homepage is a ‘page’ and ‘page’ is not activated in the wp-reading-progress settings, you can edit the homepage and check the box in the ‘WP Reading Progress’ meta box and hit save, to activate the reading bar on that page only. (Same for other post types.)

If your homepage is an archive it is more complicated but I don’t think yours is.

As it stands now, the reading progress bar is not outputting anything on your homepage, so it is considering itself switched off there.

Let me know if this doesn’t help, I’d be happy to take a closer look.

Kind regards,
Joeri

Ah yes, thank you for getting back to me with that. Good luck finding the plugin you need. Thank you for trying mine.

Your use case is interesting, so I looked into my code. Unfortunately, it is not as simple as I hoped, I would have to change quite a bit of stuff. Might be a nice addition though, contemplating it. Please let me know if you find another plugin that does what you need.

Kind regards,
Joeri

Hello again @jofranlirio , did you test your scenario?

I was thinking, since the plugin solves situations with TLD’s like .co.uk correctly it will probably handle subdomains out of the box as well, and indeed it does on my test server. However, when you install WordPress at a specific subdomain, I don’t know whether other subdomains work, I think they will, as long as the request reaches the WP installation. Each domain a page does not ‘do’ or ‘check’ anything, it just reads the request to find a corresponding post.

Can you check if it works on your install?

If it does not work, is there a specific reason you installed WordPress on a subdomain?

Kind regards,
Joeri
