In reply to: [PhastPress] Unauthorized exceptionSo the “connect to PageSpeed” pop-up is something I had overlooked. It is found using a mouseover of the Exclamation sign, just to the right of “PhastPress optimizations”.
PhastPress v1.72 is working well and the Plugin is a keeper at this point.

In reply to: [Outdated Plugin Notifier] A Must HaveI mentioned 3 yrs. as a starting point as I wasn’t sure if you had already been thinking about this. Glad to hear you are.
Once you get into 3 colours it can get a bit confusing. After some thought on this, I’m thinking a background colour is the way to go. Easy for you to incorporate and no need for On/Off options.
1 yr.
background-color: #fff8e5;2 yr.
background-color: #f56e28;Remember that without being to remove these colours, they need to easily seen and only the 2 yr. will be obtrusive. And obtrusive is what a 2 yr. notice should be, urging that something be done with that Plugin.
The 1 yr. is the same colour already used by WordPress for Update Notification and I’m thinking most people will start to use the new “Auto-updates” feature so it won’t be seen that often. And if it is, it is not that jarring of a colour.
Hope this helps.

In reply to: [PhastPress] Unauthorized exceptionv1.7.1 fixes the Retina error problem. Thanks.
Curious also that the “connect to PageSpeed” pop-up showed automatically and I wonder if that is related to the WordPress version used? (pop-up=yes WP v5.5 … pop-up=no WP v5.2.7)
Regardless of version though, there is no visible option for it?

In reply to: [PhastPress] Unauthorized exceptionSorry but I beg to differ.
PhastPress uses __p__ when rewriting images (from jpeg to webp) and because it is also trying to rewrite Retina images (the @2 tells us it is a Retina image) there is a problem somewhere.
The error_log file also appears to be written by the plugin because if plugin is Disabled, no image recoding and no errors. I haven’t checked everything to see what connection the plugin is making with other plugins as this is a Client site and I need to move with caution.
I know this plugin is doing some things not documented or mentioned because it also has some sort of feature to connect with Google PageSpeed. Only happened once so far, automatically, and I know it is the plugin because it provides a msg. window with two links to PageSpeed. One link appends “?phast=phast” to the end of the URL (PhastPress Enabled) and one link appends “?phast=-phast” (PhastPress Disabled) so the difference can be seen.
A somewhat interesting feature but a bit of a surprize because the site it happened on was Apache Password Protected and PhastPress obtained the login so PageSpeed could connect and work.
Be a good idea to get some Documentation going ASAP so people can better understand the Plugin and not have to go through any surprize features. Again, you’re off to a good start but still more work to be done.

In reply to: Optimize my WebsireRemoving unused code “can” increase page load depending upon whether the code is a linked script and blocking page load. For that you may have to make changes in your Theme, to load certain scripts or find a replacement for Autoptimize–which I know is a good Plugin but perhaps changing some of its Options may help. Sometimes you gotta play around with Plugin settings to see what works best for “your” site.
From what I’ve seen, most people would be very happy with a site that loads as quick and presents as well as yours does. Follow my earlier recommendations and you should be well on your way. As this point I wouldn’t say you have any “problems” but rather some necessary “tweaking” to accomplish your goals. And that is a necessary part of running any website. 🙂
