No loads fine with saved thumbs. If it saved its thumbs and used those that’d be prime, but if not a download button wouls sure make it less tedious.

In reply to: [Redirection] Google Maps errorI’m not sure what I got myself into, but I whipped up a key for myself and dropped it into the .js file – that got it working again.
I recall that being free in the past, but now it seems they will try to charge me at some point?
In any case, perhaps an option for users to enter their own google maps API key could be a solution? I assume if we all use YOUR key, they’ll definitely charge you (high volume plus youd have to leave it unrestricted.)
Problem was on the admin pages, and I saved all the generated thumbnails and switched to using those images.

I can tell the JavaScript is indeed generating the thumbnails over and over.

In reply to: [Link Library] Major Problem upgrading (39 links becomes 10000)After removing the 239 uncategorized duplicates of my links it is now working.
Thank god shift-click would select them in one pass so I didnt have to check 10000+ boxes manually.
For the record I did try “reimport” and delete 5.9 links under the update section in your plug in settings. That didn’t solve anything, but may have been important to the ultimate sucess of my manually removing the clones.
Final Suggestion: add a target to the FAQ link so it opens a new tab. Its annoying to discover I have to go back to get to my sites admin pages after consulting it, rather then just closing a tab.

In reply to: [Link Library] Major Problem upgrading (39 links becomes 10000)Well, and hour of my time later and I’ve removed the offending entries.
I’ve also trimmed the SQL size from 16,926KB to 2,494KB, so about 14mb of bloat was removed.

In reply to: [Big Cartel Product Importer] UselessToo late, I’ve moved on. But you may want to investigate https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Function_Reference/flush_rewrite_rules
you should change your naming scheme to include the original filename, such as coverimage_FILENAME.ext that way, a user would be “cache busting” by changing the image name, per the Jetpack Photon documentation.
As it stands, with the name ALWAYS being “cover_photo-???.jpg”, the Ultimate Member plugin is running afoul of Photon’s “Cached forever” design.
Turning Photon off and back on, doesn’t clear the cache and according to the docs online, nothing will except changing the file name.
(FWIW I’m disabling Photon, I like many of JetPack’s features, but this “we keep it forever” approach offends my sensibilities no end, as does the fact that you are opted in for other’s storing your images by simply saying yes to “enable default features” when you activate the plugin with NO notification.)

In reply to: [Franz Josef] Suggestion for "inc/header.php"That had validation issues… This one is better
<img src="<?php echo esc_url( $header->url ); ?>" height="<?php echo esc_attr( $header->height ); ?>" width="<?php echo esc_attr( $header->width ); ?>" alt="<?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?>" /></a><a href="<?php echo home_url(); ?>" class="hidden"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?>
It adds the alt tag, and prvides a hidden text for the site name, which is important for text browsers, readers, and spiders.

In reply to: [Video gallery and Player] Works wellOH…
Here I had been avoiding the “PRO Designs” link because, well, I didn’t want to spend money on this…Lo and behold, along WITH the advertising IS a guide to the shortcode.
So… You need a better name for that link.
I sorted out that one needs to install the “additional options” plug in to set up social network links for this widget. A little odd, especially since the description of the “Additional Options” plugin doesn’t mention that it’s linked to the built in top bar social links widget…
