I’m posting this to help others who stumble across this solution. * I moved a site to a new server by importing the database and copying over the entire program folder. * The problem occurred because the server had a redirect of yourdomain.com to [http://www.yourdomain.com](http://www.yourdomain.com) and the wp general settings wanted it to be yourdomain.com (or vice versa not sure now). I could not get to the wp dashboard, so I changed the value of those“ options” in the database. * I made them both want to be yourdomain.com and everybody’s happy. * Good luck, have fun, hope this helps! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MailPoet Newsletters (Previous)] mailpoet and wp-crontrol](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mailpoet-and-wp-crontrol/) * Thread Starter [Ron Strilaeff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronstrilaeff/) * (@ronstrilaeff) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/mailpoet-and-wp-crontrol/#post-4828097) * Hi, I realized that I do not need to do anything special to make it work, and no hooks to set up in crontrol. * What I did was **un**-check “Enable MailPoet’s Cron” under the advanced “geeky options” and set the Send frequency (under the “Send with” tab) to whatever I want. The built in wp cron works perfectly since the website is pretty active and apparently that is enough to wake it up. * By the way, I think you guys should clarify that the Mailpoet Ping is simply a last resort if for some reason your built-in wp-cron is broken or you have almost no traffic. Currently it reads like a “premium” feature that we should use for better performance. Turning it on made my newsletter sending unreliable( maybe because the mailpoet ping never came some days? … who knows). * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Widget Title Links] Making the entire title-bar clickable](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/making-the-entire-title-bar-clickable/) * [Ron Strilaeff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronstrilaeff/) * (@ronstrilaeff) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/making-the-entire-title-bar-clickable/#post-4560407) * Thanks ragulka!

I immediately fell in love with this plugin by the way since I have numerous background functions to prepare meta data and cleanup garbage that I’ve been triggering off of periodic user or admin actions. It is nice to have a ui to keep track of them (and actually change them or execute manually ). Thanks for doing this. * I did not realize there were two parts to the built in wp-cron. * Now that you enlightened me that it won’t do any work (other than a quick check) unless it has an event scheduled, it looks like there is no significant advantage in disabling the built in wp-cron. * It would only take a few milliseconds for wp to check a few cached db records( the scheduled tasks). * From your experience, is it ever worth disabling? * Forum: [Hacks](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/hacks/) In reply to: [Custom users.php column to Order by user_meta](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-usersphp-column-to-order-by-user_meta/) * [Ron Strilaeff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronstrilaeff/) * (@ronstrilaeff) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-usersphp-column-to-order-by-user_meta/#post-4092525) * Hey Steven, * Did you figure out how to sort the meta value numerically? * I’m having trouble with “99” always coming before something like “673”.

If so, that is an obvious waste of resources. Does your plugin prevent that? * Thanks, Ron * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [pagination, JUMP to page xx](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pagination-jump-to-page-xx/) * [Ron Strilaeff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronstrilaeff/) * (@ronstrilaeff) * [12 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pagination-jump-to-page-xx/#post-3601206) * try changing this: * ``` if (isset($_POST['goto_Page'])) { goto_page() ; } ``` * to this: * ``` if (isset($_POST['goto_Page'])) { $pagefrominput = $_POST['goto_Page']; goto_page($pagefrominput); } ``` * to pass the value from your input field on the form to that function.

Any advice is greatly appreciated. * btw: I’ve abandoned my original strategy of using that wpsc_cachedata hook because I want to use the mod_rewrite method of caching. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Post UI Tabs] Showing as bulleted list](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/showing-as-bulleted-list/) * [Ron Strilaeff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronstrilaeff/) * (@ronstrilaeff) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/showing-as-bulleted-list/#post-4218530) * Did you resolve this? * I don’t see any tabs or bulleted list so on that page. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Widgets Reloaded] Be careful when updating !](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/be-careful-when-updating/) * Thread Starter [Ron Strilaeff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronstrilaeff/) * (@ronstrilaeff) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/be-careful-when-updating/#post-4234917) * Thanks Justin, I understand the trade off. * There was a silver lining for me though… one thing I was planning on doing with the category widget was to add the Term Group value to some of my custom taxonomy terms so I could order them more exactly. * But instead I realized since I only wanted to include a few terms in a specific order, the “Navigation Menu” widget worked way better for that. I just created whatever grouping and order of terms I wanted in a custom menu with the fancy drag and drop that is built in to wp admin and use it and change it on a whim. * Who was it that said “necessity is the mother of invention”? * Thanks for keeping up with things! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP-PostRatings] Change rating](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/change-rating/) * [Ron Strilaeff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronstrilaeff/) * (@ronstrilaeff) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/change-rating/#post-4245476) * There seems to be many legitimate cases were someone should be allowed to change their vote. * For example, I rate product 5/5 based on a friend’s experience. Then I decide to buy one and it realize that it has some serious design flaw that my friend did not care about. So I would like to change my rating to a 3/5. * This is not a matter of inflating a rating artificially because it is mine or whatever. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP-PostRatings] Ratings stopped working still Loading](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ratings-stopped-working-still-loading/) * [Ron Strilaeff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronstrilaeff/) * (@ronstrilaeff) * [12 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ratings-stopped-working-still-loading/#post-4223608) * No reason other than when I wrote that code I wasn’t quite sure how to use the json format and wanted to make sure that all my ajax responses were using json to eliminate anything unexpected. So I put in a $.ajaxSetup({…} call along with my serverside url and a couple other options. I was a little over-zealous to “ just make it work”. * In hindsight, the description and notes here says it is strongly **not recommended** [http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajaxSetup/](http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajaxSetup/) so I un-did all that and specified json right before each of my ajax posts or gets if it was truly required. * Thanks for your patience. Maybe this will help some other reader from the future.
