Yeah, there are browser plug-ins like Dark Reader, but then you have to turn it on for admin, turn it off when you view the site itself. It’s just aggravating. * I’m honestly not sure who enjoys blinding themselves with white backgrounds to begin with. It’s why we use dark themes when coding and why OSs and apps finally started providing dark theme options. * Forum: [Developing with WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/wp-advanced/) In reply to: [Hooking into the Media Library template and Custom Post Edit screen, Meta Column](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hooking-into-the-media-library-template-and-custom-post-edit-screen-meta-column/) * Thread Starter [liquidRock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liquidrock/) * (@liquidrock) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hooking-into-the-media-library-template-and-custom-post-edit-screen-meta-column/#post-14997514) * Thanks [@bcworkz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcworkz/) * Yeah, I figured it would be complicated to sort the column this way, but not sure how else to accomplish it. I don’t know SQL at all. I’m wondering if there’s some way to append an incremental data-attribute using a counter and sort by that, although not sure if it’s possible to apply the sort once all the tables have been populated and that attribute created. idk. I might just have to wait until I can hire someone to do this properly. * As for the **document icons**, I don’t get errors from the core media folder images, I’m replacing them with custom images. * Here is the code I’m using. * ``` add_filter( 'wp_mime_type_icon', function( $icon, $mime, $post_id ) { if( 'text/plain' === $mime && $post_id > 0 ) $icon = get_template_directory_uri() . '/library/images/icons/txt.png'; if( 'application/pdf' === $mime && $post_id > 0 ) $icon = get_template_directory_uri() . '/library/images/icons/pdf.png'; return $icon; }, 10, 3 ); ``` * ` * The above code works fine if you view the Media Library in grid mode. There are no errors and the custom images load for the documents. However, view in list mode, it throws errors, looks for the image in the core folder, and no image is loaded at all. * Forum: [Developing with WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/wp-advanced/) In reply to: [Hooking into the Media Library template and Custom Post Edit screen, Meta Column](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hooking-into-the-media-library-template-and-custom-post-edit-screen-meta-column/) * Thread Starter [liquidRock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liquidrock/) * (@liquidrock) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hooking-into-the-media-library-template-and-custom-post-edit-screen-meta-column/#post-14995589) * I managed to solve the first 3 problems by filtering `wp_get_attachment_image_attributes` finding the `src` array key and then modifying it and returning the `$attr`. * Still would love to know how to sort a column the way I proposed in point 4. * Forum: [Developing with WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/wp-advanced/) In reply to: [Hooking into the Media Library template and Custom Post Edit screen, Meta Column](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hooking-into-the-media-library-template-and-custom-post-edit-screen-meta-column/) * Thread Starter [liquidRock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liquidrock/) * (@liquidrock) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hooking-into-the-media-library-template-and-custom-post-edit-screen-meta-column/#post-14993587) * For some reason I can’t edit this post, but besides modifying the `src` for the images mentioned above (points 1 and 2), I would also like to add a class to them. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[W3 Total Cache] Cache Header date, Minifying, and file permissions](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cache-header-date-minifying-and-file-permissions/) * Thread Starter [liquidRock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liquidrock/) * (@liquidrock) * [4 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cache-header-date-minifying-and-file-permissions/#post-14988266) * I tried those settings for minifying CSS. It may just be my file. Not a huge deal. I can just minify it myself manually to ensure it works. The caching of CSS works just fine. * As for the **Headers**, I think you misunderstood, so I’ll clarify: * I have mod_expires directives set in Apache includes. This works fine across all domains on my server. However, your plugin overrides what I want set, AND WordPress Core seems to override the max-age for type text/html and sets the HTML file date to January 11 1984, forcing the browser to keep fetching the html even if it hasn’t changed and is cached by W3TC. * Inspecting headers for HTML gives the following with or without W3 TC activated: * ``` cache-control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0 expires: Wed, 11 Jan 1984 05:00:00 GMT ``` * This is forcing HTML files not to cache in the browser even with your plugin active. I thought you guys might know how to stop WordPress from doing this. * I’m also curious if W3TC can use MY expires time for HMTL, CSS, JS and fonts or not override them as there’s no reason to—i.e maybe it would be nice to have an option for users to NOT set a new expires time via checkboxes for those common file types: • _use existing expires for CSS_. I want them set to 6 months or 1 year, because I have versioning setup with my enqueued CSS files based on file modification date so that if I update them the browser will automatically dump the cached version and download the new one as WordPress enqueue will tack on a new version and it will appear as a new file. * CSS versioning example: `/library/css/style.css?ver=1634718926` * The primary thing is HTML though. Seems wasteful to have users keep downloading the HTML unnecessarily if no new posts have been published and no changes to templates have been made, especially for mobile users where speed can be less than desirable. * Hope this makes more sense.

Can’t access my server right now but will test it as soon as I can. * Also, 1 note: It seems that PHP-FPM is also installed on my server. The techs said that the way it’s configured, the server chooses whether to use FPM or FCGI( whatever is faster for a given task). I tested disabling FPM in case it was conflicting with the plug-in, but it didn’t make any difference. * Will keep you posted on the test. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[W3 Total Cache] Can’t Enable Validate Timestamps](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-enable-validate-timestamps/) * Thread Starter [liquidRock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liquidrock/) * (@liquidrock) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-enable-validate-timestamps/#post-14964520) * Here’s the output: * ``` Array ( [opcache.enable] => 1 [opcache.validate_timestamps] => 1 [opcache_reset] => 1 ) ``` * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[W3 Total Cache] Can’t Enable Validate Timestamps](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-enable-validate-timestamps/) * Thread Starter [liquidRock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liquidrock/) * (@liquidrock) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-enable-validate-timestamps/#post-14964517) * Sure thing.

ContactFormX still works 🙂 * If anyone else is interested who uses WHM/Cpanel, search for “Firewall” in the sidebar and you’ll see “ConfigServer Security & Firewall”. Once there you can run a test with “Check Server Security” button for suggestions. * For this, scroll down and click “Firewall Configuration,” which gives you a GUI for all settings. Search for “SMTP_BLOCK”. * I used the following settings: * ``` SMTP_BLOCK = On SMTP_ALLOWLOCAL = Off SMTP_REDIRECT = Off ``` * After making these changes make sure to scroll aaaaaaall the way to the bottom and click the “Change” button, or nothing will be applied. Learned that the hard way. It’s easy to miss and the page is a mile long. * On may be 1 and Off may be 0 if you’re using SSH or something, but I used the GUI. My normal email still works (I have it setup as IMAP with SSL) and ContactFormX worked on my WordPress installs just fine and the email came through instantly. - This reply was modified 4 years, 10 months ago by [liquidRock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liquidrock/). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Contact Form X] Possible to use Contact Form X with SMTP Restrictions?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-to-use-contact-form-x-with-smtp-restrictions/) * Thread Starter [liquidRock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/liquidrock/) * (@liquidrock) * [4 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/possible-to-use-contact-form-x-with-smtp-restrictions/#post-14960615) * Okay, I’ll try it.
