In reply to: [WP Fastest Cache - WordPress Cache Plugin] Preload not workingAlso, when running it as a cron job, it just keeps replacing already-made cache files that are just fine. This seems to waste resources.

In reply to: [WP Fastest Cache - WordPress Cache Plugin] Preload not workingI have WP_CRON disabled in wp-config.php, then call wp-cron.php with a system cron job every half hour. I did schedule a post as you asked, and it was indeed posted on the half hour when the cron job ran.
I think I’m beginning to understand how WPFC works with preloading. I edited the cron job to save the response html file with a time stamp, so I can see them all and see what it is doing each time.
When the Preload dialog is set to “6 pages per minute”, that is not what happens. The preload just tries to cache 6 pages, then it stops dead, until it is called again. If some of those pages are excluded, doesn’t matter, they count toward the 6.
I don’t understand why it works like this, certainly not from the documentation. When you preload, why not go through every post type that is checked, and if the post is not cached, cache it. Don’t just do 6 and stop. Keep going until the job is done.

In reply to: [WP Fastest Cache - WordPress Cache Plugin] Preload not workingWell . . . it doesn’t, on my site.

In reply to: [WP Fastest Cache - WordPress Cache Plugin] Preload not working15 minutes is the most frequent the hosting will allow me to do a cron job. But what difference does it make? When it starts a preload, shouldn’t it go on and cache all pages on the site until they are all cached?

In reply to: [WP Fastest Cache - WordPress Cache Plugin] Preload not workingThat doesn’t seem to help. I modified the cron job (every 15 minutes, the fastest allowed) so I could see the page response and a log:
wget -O ${HOME}/logs/preload-page.html -o ${HOME}/logs/preload-log.txt "https://forestpathology.org?action=wpfastestcache&type=preload"I cleared the cache in WPFC settings and watched the cache in FTP. It’s building slowly still like before, most popular pages first. The response page mentions 6 forum pages, but there are 50 or more regular pages still not cached.

In reply to: [WP Fastest Cache - WordPress Cache Plugin] Preload cacheThanks. Sorry to be a pest, but could you clarify what happens every 5 minutes, mentioned in the quote above. “Preload runs every 5 minutes”, sounds like the cache gets replaced every 5 minutes, but that’s not what happens.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [WP Fastest Cache - WordPress Cache Plugin] Preload cacheSo in the first case, if you clear the cache, preloading won’t start again? What does the 5 minutes refer to in
The preload feature stars to work after delete cache.
When the Preload feature calls the urls, the cache of urls are created automatically. When all the pages are cached, the preload stops working. When the cache is clear, it starts working again.
The Preload runs every 5 minutes.

In reply to: [TablePress - Tables in WordPress made easy] Console js errorThank you for the quick diagnosis. That’s an easy fix.
You’re right, the Verboten error was a much more serious problem. Turns out I had some code to stop people hijacking images that wasn’t right. I cringe to think how long that was going on. I never thought to check links in other sites.
Best wishes,

In reply to: [TablePress - Tables in WordPress made easy] Console js errorOh sorry, I put the wrong URL. And there is something else wrong! I’ll come back when I have that issue fixed.
EDIT: I don’t know what’s going on there. The page has a Referrer Policy header “unsafe-url”, and somehow that results in a 403 error.
The actual URL is https://forestpathology.org/general/fungi/
You may need to paste that into your browser to make it work if clicking the link still gives an error.- This reply was modified 5 years, 8 months ago by Jim.

In reply to: [WP Fastest Cache - WordPress Cache Plugin] Preload cacheThe labeling and description of the preload options are confusing, at least to me. Here’s how I’m guessing it works. Please correct me where I’m wrong.
When you enable Preload, it starts creating cache files for all the checked post types, at the rate selected.
RESTART AFTER COMPLETED NOT SELECTED
When it’s finished preloading, it checks every 5 minutes to see if the cache has been cleared. If so, preloading starts again.WITH RESTART AFTER COMPLETED SELECTED
I’m sorry, after reading the documentation on this option several times, I still don’t understand what it does.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Stop __cfduid cookie?OK, good info, thanks. As I say, I quit going through Cloudflare about a month ago. That article says they put that cookie on people’s devices. Consistent with that, I was seeing the cookie in the browser I usually work with (Firefox), but not in another browser.
I searched for cookies on Firefox. There was no __cfduid, but there were some Cloudflare cookies that had been updating minutes ago. I deleted them, cleared they browser, and they’re still showing up.
I read somewhere that cookie has a 6-year life! Some images:

In reply to: [Broken Link Checker] False ‘broken’ with doi.org linksOK, thank you Patrick. The doi.org links are puzzling. I’ll have to investigate whether the server IP is blacklisted anywhere.
EDIT – Okay I checked several sites that will search for an IP on dozens of widely used blacklists. The server IP looks quite clean. For example here:
https://www.ultratools.com/tools/spamDBLookupResultMy own internet service provider IP is listed 3 times (but all those lists have the same root domain). My hosts server IP is completely clean.
