In reply to: [TubePress] Tubepress makes wesbite slowWe provide some performance tips here: http://tubepress.org/documentation/Customize:Recipes#Optimize_Load-Time_Performance
TubePress should only have a negligible effect on the performance of your site (both client and server side). We would have to perform some measurements to identify the bottleneck. Can you provide a link to your site?
Could you be more specific? What happens when you type
[tubepress]onto a page?
TubePress shortcode for each gallery
I meant to say “playlist”, not “gallery”
Oh! And here I thought you were trying to show a gallery of your videos that you favorited.
I think the solution instead, then, is to simply have a separate TubePress shortcode for each gallery. For instance
[tubepress mode="playlist" playlistValue="PLEJnEE9s54a3KgPiMwPvuizZSVWmNlTYc"]Does that make sense?
Nothing from YouTube yet :/
Could you post a list of the videos that are favorited by the user tridudas? Even a subset of the list would be useful. I’m curious if there’s some privacy settings on the individual videos themselves.

In reply to: [TubePress] API cache not workingSounds like this could be a bug. I’ll check.
Glad the cache is working, though!
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [TubePress] API cache not workingThe system temp directory is usually at /tmp or /var/tmp. On Windows servers (less common) it’s usually at C:\temp. But it really varies from host to host, so this isn’t an exhaustive list.
You can verify if the cache is working or not by looking at TubePress’s debug output. And here are some general performance tips that we recommend.

In reply to: [TubePress] cURL Failed errorThanks to the generosity of cinitriqs, I believe we may have found a fix for this bug.
Please see http://community.tubepress.org/topic/1790-curl-failed/?p=6314 for the details. It’s a one-liner.
If you would report back with your results, and assuming it seems to work for everyone, we’ll release an updated version of TubePress that includes the patch.
Thanks!

Thank you.
This appears to be a bug with YouTube. In fact, if you try to fetch the favorites of *many* YouTube users (not just tridudas), you’ll get the same error. But weirdly it still works for some YouTube usernames.
I’ve filed a bug report with YouTube. Please “star” that issue to both follow updates to it and draw YouTube’s attention to the problem.
Can you think of any privacy settings on youtube.com that you might have set? What does your privacy settings page look like?

In reply to: [TubePress] cURL failedSounds great. Thanks very much!
Hi oquiroga,
Could you re-enable debugging for me at WP Admin > Settings > TubePress > Advanced? That will help me get a better look as to what’s going on under the hood.
It sounds like you’re doing everything right, so we may have to open a bug report with YouTube.
Thanks!

In reply to: [TubePress] cURL failedHi,
I just replied over on the other thread – see my post here.
In short, we are eager to fix this bug and desperate for access to a test environment. Do you think you could help us with that?
To disable cURL manually, you can comment out or delete line 194 in this file. Ideally though we could fix the cURL bug and not have to bother with disabling it.
Thanks!

In reply to: [TubePress] cURL Failed errorHi folks,
I’m sorry that you’re still experiencing trouble with cURL. We try our very best to make sure that TubePress works on all server configurations, but obviously we aren’t 100% bug free. I would still very much like to solve this issue once and for all.
We don’t mean to blow off reports about this bug. To be a bit frank, it has been low priority because 1) thousands of sites are using cURL with TubePress without any trouble and 2) it’s been impossible so far to reproduce reliably. I know that doesn’t make it any better for you, but hopefully this adds some context to the situation.
So, how do we fix the bug? Best case would be shell and/or FTP access to your site. That would allow me to run some tests to find out exactly what’s failing. Is it the network? PHP’s configuration or version? The hosting provider? If you feel that you could provide this, please feel free to contact me privately over at the TubePress Community site. My username there is “eric”.
Thanks for your understanding and I look forward to nailing down this issue once and for all!

In reply to: [TubePress] style sheet and img issueHi,
wp-content/plugins/tubepress/sys/ui/themes/default/style.cssfor TubePress 2.4.5 and below, this path is valid and should return a 200. The use of custom CSS in user themes is indeed deprecated, but this version of TubePress still uses this stylesheet to do the bulk of its styling. If you customize TubePress’s CSS, you should only put your *modifications* into your theme’s style.css. Not the entire TubePress stylesheet. Does that make sense?
wp-content/plugins/tubepress/sys/ui/themes/default/img/bullet.pngThis looks unfamiliar to me. I’m guessing that it was added by someone that had customized TubePress? Probably safe to get rid of that reference if everything else is looking good to you.
