Hi,

Thank you for the quick reply!

1. The plugin is GeorDirectory

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/geodirectory/

URL: https://wpgeodirectory.com/

2. This is a brand new site so there is not much there. I am trying to get if off on the right foot. I expect that the site will have A LOT of photos and many of them will be uploaded by users (meaning customers) so I want to make sure that the photos get optimized automatically and cannot let “heavy” photos be on the site and slow it down.

3. I did not put the path in the folder until AFTER I tried to optimize the first time and it looked like the newly uploaded photos were all optimized.

I added the below to the folders to optimize under the Advanced Setting then ran the Scan & Optimize and the newly uploaded photos were optimized along with some theme stuff – so I guess it worked.

/home/woofalis/public_html/muttmaps/wp-content/uploads/2014/10

Now as I understand it the photos uploaded using the above path with only get optimized hourly (or longer between depending on site visits) or I suppose I can manually run the scan & optimize, but I am looking for a solution so that the uploaded photos will be optimized automatically as we expect a lot of photo uploads coming from many different users (customers).

Can you help me with this?

Now in November I should change the folder path to account for the month change & can I delete the October path?
BTW, the guys at GeoDirectory are awesome!

Cheers,
Stacey

I went into my cPanel then file manager located the plugin and deleted it – it worked! Thanks to help here I was able to do this and resolve not being able to login to my site which was really freaking me out (nothing like this ever happened – yes bit of a newbie). I sent in a bug report to iThemes on this and am interested in how long if ever it takes them to respond.

I bought a multi site license for backupbuddy previously – interested to see if that helps me get an answer from the devs.

I haven’t been very impressed how they have handled this based on what I have seen here.
