In reply to: Impact of Each Plugin on PerformanceGotcha, thanks! Right now I see:
<!– 75 queries. 2.146 seconds. –>
So I dunno what the queries are. Is it just a matter of process of elimination by enabling and disabling? What’s a good target number not to exceed?

In reply to: RSS Feed Conked OutYeah, sorry it’s Media Temple. Apparantly I’m not the only one with this problem but they’re not offering much helpful info. THere’s a thread going on over here:
If there are any other media temple folks out there, the conversation can be considered moved.

I never chose that wacky image and I can’t edit it. It acts like I’m not logged in.
Possibly related?

In reply to: File Permissions Ownership Nightmarewoah! that might have worked… thanks

In reply to: File Permissions Ownership Nightmarereset them? The setting seems to be correct. However, I’ve now graduated to 500 Errors instead of 404.
I’m fairly certain this all has something do to with the htaccess file and the permissions to write it… what should those be? How the heck do I figure out who the “owner” of wordpress is? vs. the “owner” other things?
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: File Permissions Ownership NightmareHmm…. what do you suppose might be causing that? The front page loads just fine, then all the article pages are 404’d

In reply to: [Plugin: WP Super Cache] DisappointedThanks!
I looked at those and all the gzip tests work fine for me, so I guess it’s correctly set up. SuperCache just did nothing to help in yesterday’s digg hit. The site was down in minutes.
I just spent a bunch of money upgrading to a new server and I guess I just have to cross my fingers that next time it will roll smoothly.
Is there anything else I can do to definitively prove that my lousy hosting environment was the cause? (This was a cheap shared hosting environment) Like those testing websites represented in the other threads?

In reply to: [Plugin: WP Super Cache] DisappointedReply from my host (Pair) –
We just attempted to re-enable the site with CBAND enabled; CBAND
throttles incoming traffic essentially. However, even with this enabled, your site consumes way too many resources to be re-enabled at this time, as load shot up to over 50 immediately after enabling the site.One problem that I see is that you are using php-cgiwrap on the entire
site; please note that running PHP as CGI is a lot more resource intensive and will definitely cause problems under the traffic you are seeing.However, I even tried commenting the necessary lines ouur of your
.htaccess file; after re-enabling the domain, load was immediately back up over 30, so it is clear that a large part of the problem is the site
software/configuration itself combined with the amount of traffic you are receiving.Unforuntely, while WP-Super-Cache does help in many instances, when
configured properly, it doesn’t always prove to be a singular fix;
there may be other problematic plugins or you may need to re-examine
your caching implementation.Does this mean my server sucks, or is there something else I can do? The reason I have that wrap thing on is because wordpress won’t do automatic updates without it.

In reply to: Authors Can Not Embed Video???Crapalicious… so it looks like Role Manager is not supported by 2.8x and the alternative is a hack. I’m wary of reinstalling role scoper. anyone got other ideas?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Authors Can Not Embed Video???this is a serious drag. I’ve seen crazy stuff like this before in drupal. What is the name of the wysiwyg software that WP uses? Is it TinyMCE? Could that be malfunctioning even though I’m in the HTML tab?
Here’s a clue – there’s an option here to allow “unfiltered html” for some uesrs –
http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Capabilities
According to that page “unfiltered HTML” is not allowed by Authors, so maybe this is actually a normal thing. I’m kind of surprised.
Is there a way to give all Authors this capability without a plugin?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Authors Can Not Embed Video???yeah, I did. Dang problem still persists. it’s totally bizarre. Can you think of anything that might fight with the editor like that? I know, for example, that it strips out iframe code if I try to use that, could something have triggered whatever that filter is to go haywire?
Did a second set of tests with new Author, bunch of different browsers. It’s definitely a consistent problem.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Authors Can Not Embed Video???The HTML Tab. I haven’t been running WP long enough to know if it ever worked for them. With editor/admin privileges I’ve never seen a problem with this. But I’ve definitely been able to reproduce the problem by creating a new author and trying to include emded code – bam, it just disappears the second you save a post.
This may be related to the “role scoper” plugin I installed, but I’ve since disabled it and the problem is still there.
