Thank you for answer. It is good that there are media/image settings to help me make a nice looking shop. (I know the “bigger” shop-plugin work the same way, and I think they have more sizes?

From your link (and a bit more thinking) I probably found the solution I am looking for:
I use Modern Grid, not Classic list. That means I can set Classic list media settings to zero, since I do not need that type/size. Haven′t thought about that before. One image size less in the uploads folder.

From your link I also see I can set Modern grid from rectangular to square size, with the help of a little code. That′s good, since my product images already are squares! (Up until know they have been cropped, wich I was ok with.)

If I make Modern grid square and set the same size as on single page, say 600×600, then only one “extra image size” will be saved in my uploads folder. Right?

I will have to test this to find the right size. Currently images in my lists and on product pages are always viewed smaller than 600. But I do not want to risk making them too small and blurry. And as far as I know it is good to have them “double” size for sharp images on retina screens (right ?).

I have no more questions!
??

Thank you, yes I did see that, but wasn′t convinced by the “I think” part…

Now I have moved to PHP 7.4, and as far as I can see everything is working smoothly, so I am happy! ??

(I have not done anything manually, not removed or changed any files, so I hope they won′t haunt me in the future.)

Good, I will choose NGINX, thank you for taking the time to help me!

So the support was right, that is also good to know ?? This is new to everyone and I could not find any specific info about it anywhere, so just wanted to be sure.

Question solved.

Thank you, just to be sure:
So the support at the web hotel that told me I should choose “NGINX” in your list was not correct. The right choice in your firewall web server config list is “Apache mod_php”, when using Wordfence together with WP Engine?
And after that the rest will work automatic?

I found the cause! (But there is no good solution yet)
It really is something with the latest Chrome and WordPress Gutenberg that don′t play well together.
Nice to know I am not mad…

Yes, will probably do.
Thanks and sorry for taking up your time.

Sadly the troubleshooting steps did not help. I tried it all on a staging version of our site. inactivated all plugins, also changed theme, reset all AIO SEO settings. Nothing helped…
But now come to think a bit more, it is not only the “panel” from your plugin, it is every advanced panel (or what they are called) in the editor that is wrong. Yours just happened to be the first in stack order (A…B, C)
I updated five different plugins yesterday, so who is to blame… But now all plugins are inactivated and the problem persist!?
I also re-installed WordPress, no change. I guess this is not related to AIO SEO after all, but what to do next…
There was also a system update yesterday, could it be Chrome or PC related??

Any tips welcome, but I guess your plugin is not to blame after all.

Yes, I have tried 1, but not with the result I wanted without lots of more work. 2 sounds promising.
I mark this as solved, as there are many good solutions (and maybe just a glitch on my side of the table…)

Well, that almost works. If I do that I will have only the sorted main categories on the catalog starting page as I want, good.

But now the sorted list of the main categories also show up at the end of every category page and every single product page…
I don′t see any change when I try different settings for “Category page shows” and “Show related”.
And if I try without the [show_product_catalog] the loop goes wrong and sends me to the front page…

Since this is no biggie I will drop this issue (and maybe try more in the future).
I still enjoy using your plugin! ??

If anyone want to try with better luck, the code I wrote above has a typo!!
It should be:
[show_categories include=”34,76,324…” orderby=”none”]

Thank you for answer.
First line at the web hotel alarmed, but second line said it should (probably) be just fine to go ahead. So I did. And it was!
We have now migrated to 7.2 and it is working very well! No problem at all with content aware sidebars or any other plugin.
Nice to finally have done the switch, and site is now faster.

Sorry, I searched earlier but did not find the answer. But now I got it: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/php-7-2-compatibility-5/

So I guess solved?

Thank you, now I know how to move further ??

(Our file is for clients who already knows what it is, not for just anyone. And I agree, there is a good reason why that file type is not generally allowed in WordPress. I would never allow it to be uploaded from the frontend by just whoever comes by…)

Thank you for your answer, I will do some testing of your plugin the next week or so and maybe get back to you. I just found our web hotel could help to increase the maximum upload file size, so that is probably solved.

The mime type we need is EXE and the simple TXT. But I know EXE is maybe not something you want to allow by default in your plugin, since it is a “powerful” file type?? If not, it seems we can solve it by adding some code ourself or use an extra plugin.

How about PHP 7, is your plugin ready for that?

HI I have done some more testing. Would be interesting if someone can tell me why our big file downloads like a flash lightning when I upload it like a single normal media file (thru ftp and with the help of “WP Extra File Types” and “Add from server”)? But thru WPDM the same file takes over a minute and many times throws an time-out-error.

So now I know there is no problem with the exe-file type or the large size of the file. (And there is no plugin conflict, I have tested without all other plugins).

I am looking for a general answer, is a file handled in totally different way throu download-plugin(s), maybe some tricky PHP-loop, than when downloading a file from a simple link to WordPress media manager/uploads? Is it counting the downloads and register statistics that takes time?

I like to learn the differens…

Thank you for reply. Yes that is the plugin a did see:

I see there is a plugin to allow more file-types in WordPress, so it could allow exe-file type, but would we risk security by doing that?? (Not so many people use that plugin…)

If we allow a file type, that WordPress does not, will that put our site into security problems? (We are on a safe web hotel and have security plugins.)

Someone want to share some thoughts on how we can set up a download counter to that file, if we just put it up like a normal download link, with the help of this extra-file-types-plugin?
