(Quote) I'm testing and playing with the limits. Will post an extensive report ("review"). From the preliminary results - CPU is by far the greatest bottleneck for WordPress and forums (the stuff running on PHP). The rest are less critica…

(Quote) If you are moving to a cheaper plan, double-check > @Ympker said: (Quote) Yes, but if one website gets hacked, or has any other problems - every other website is likely to have problems. Again, related to viruses and hacks - fixing one w…

I've used BackWPup with great results, but such plugins are resource hogs. Besides, backup of WP is best done by the hosting server, not by WP backing itself up using a plugin. That's less efficient and more likely to cause errors (in my opinion and…
-
(Quote) Yes - no email confirmation even. I've sent them the feedback with suggestions - not that I expect anyone to actually read it (but I'd be happy to get pleasantly surprised). :)
-
(Quote) Ditto - thanks to your shared experience, I've finally decided to pay for the license. The website-provided info was too unclear for me (colour me dumb :) ).
-
(Quote) A lot longer, more tedious, but with instructions needed for cloning, not just migration (i.e. domain change): WordPress manual backup WordPress manual migration/cloning I've been using that for years, until @Ympker told me "the trick…
-
(Quote) Unless they change the prices (and/or resources again) - which seems to happen every few months :) my Enterprise Entry Reseller renewal should be under $ 330 per three years (with the discount, cut from 80% to 50%, but still a lot better tha…
-
(Quote) AIO "trick" stopped working? Hmm - that plugin has been updated 2 weeks ago. Now I'm not 100% sure whether I've last used it with the latest, or with the previous version. Would have to double-check. Does Updraft Plus free work fo…
-
Since you explained the "trick" for AIO WP Migration free version, I've been using that mostly. Especially for cloning websites - I still do migrations mostly manually. :) And still have WP CLI on my to-learn list. Here's the step-by-ste…

In case anyone else finds this interesting, here are the resource usage stats - total, for my entire reseller hosting account. Before, and after switching from Advanced Reseller to Enterprise Entry Reseller: (Image) With a full report in my HostM…
-
(Quote) I'm keeping an eye on the new reseller resource limits performance - to see if I'll hit the total account limit through regular use (2.5 vCPU, Enterprise Entry Reseller package).
-
(Quote) Here's my reasoning: The way I've configured it, AMP maintenance is done 100% automatically. Zero extra hassle. :) Which is the point of my starting this topic (and making the tutorial article). And it provides a super-fast user experienc…
-
(Quote) Well, for me, HostMantis reseller is still "the best" - i.e. what I'm using in spite of all the price/resource fluctuation (my HostMantis experience, documented :) ) Of all the providers I've been with (and even more I've had the e…
-
(Quote) For caching - LiteSpeed is where it's at. The way things are now - if the hosting server isn't LiteSpeed, I'd seriously consider switching providers (it's not be all end all, but it is very, very good - as long as the provider doesn't mess …
-
IMO, AMP is not a replacement for good (mobile) optimization. It's just an addition. I've seen stupider things done "for SEO" - "SEO" (and "social networks) is ruining the Internet, piling it with garbage. :) ( my long-win…
-
Yup - it's confirmed. :) Using my Advanced Reseller hosting account for an example: Old policy: potentially available resources - 75 x 1 vCPU core (if I really used that on a server with even 32 cores, it would be in trouble with my account alon…
-
(Quote) For caching, I prefer LiteSpeed. This is my article on WordPress caching options. In other words: CDN sort of comes "on top," or "alongside" caching, but it doesn't replace it. Even with Cloudflare set up like that, I th…
-
(Quote) If that is the case (waiting for confirmation), then Enterprise Entry reseller hosting - at $24/Mo, with 2.5 vCPU and 50 cPanel limit, is better for my use than Reseller Advanced - at $30/Mo with 1.5 vCPU and 75 cPanel limit. Considering th…
-
(Quote) I love the concept! :) Sacrificing a bit of the flashy design for the essence: the contents (article text and images) being loaded more efficiently. In the 7th chapter - "AMP ethical aspect" - I talked more about the whole concep…
-
(Quote) I opened a (low-priority) ticket to ask for clarification. If it is how I hope it is - with the Advanced reseller plan (with 1.5 vCPU per cPanel) I could, for example: set the cycling website to have 1.5 vCPU set my blog that no one reads t…
-
(Quote) It's all configured to take money - like everything else. Right from the start. Everything is free... until you need a WooCommerce webshop or a multilingual website - then 99% of the plugins and themes require you to pay, or code it all you…
-
(Quote) > (Quote) A few weeks ago I had a website go 50 to 100% CPU (full-retard! :) ). If that were the case, wouldn't all the other websites have been affected? I hadn't noticed any problems with any of the other websites. Still, I hadn't a…
-
Keeping it simple for now and sticking with Cloudflare free tier. I've tested a plugin that enables real CDN function for free: WP Cloudflare Super Page Cache
-
(Quote) No problem - it makes sense. Having a separate thread for each topic. That would make it easier to find the needed info later on.
-
(Quote) It's not explained clearly enough. It could mean at least two different things. For me, that would be a big step-down in the available resources - if you get say 1 vCPU and 3 GB of RAM to share between all the cPanel accounts. On the other…
-
An "idiot-friendly" (just how I like and need it :) ) step-by-step tutorial on how to add Google AdSense to a WordPress website. I've also covered the AdSense for AMP website versions - for those who use it.
-
(Quote) That doesn't sound good. Were you able to retrieve the backups, or get to log into your cPanel/DirectAdmin? Was it a shared, or a reseller hosting account? On that note - some providers (Veerotech for one) are fine with a user hitting their…
-
(Quote) In my experience, HostMantis has been very reliable (uptime, stability, even performance). Highly reputable (and a lot more expensive) hosting providers don't offer such packages. I've asked - had a project that needed more resources and wa…
-
(Quote) My bad - cPanel. DA is still not mature enough in my opinion. The "Entry" option looks good if you have a few websites that need more resources (2.5 CPU - since CPU seems to be the bottleneck with WordPress website performance, at…

How I built my website - theme, plugin choice, custom code etc: https://io.bikegremlin.com/22393/how-i-built-this-wordpress-website/ * As close as it gets to step-by-step without being too long. :)
-
(Quote) Updated: '. $updated_date . ' '; (Quote) Oh, I had tried that - that way the function doesn't do the job (but the error code does disappear :) ). It is my understanding that the variable should be defined first as an empty string: $cus…
-
(Quote) I'd be happy to, just please post the complete, edited code (idiot friendly) :) Here's the faulty original: // BEGIN Last-updated displayfunction wpb_last_updated_date( $content ) { $u_time = get_the_time('U'); $u_modified_time = g…
-
(Quote) From what I could gather - it's been a bad piece of code from the start. Just didn't get any warnings about it until now. And some themes and plugins seem to make those warnings disappear. :)

Here's the full, thorough report: Strange WordPress PHP 8.0 error
-
@PHP_Backend and @nickelodeon ... and the others who've contributed and helped: I am trying to do it all cautiously, by the book. Testing it first in a staging environment, staging on the production server, one production website, then the other pr…
-
A "Solomon's solution" - I've removed all the PHP and added this to the style.css: /* BEGIN updated date showing only */.posted-on .updated { display: inline-block;}.posted-on .updated + .entry-date { display: none;}.posted-on .upda…
-
(Quote) That didn't help with the error. :( Didn't hurt, nor take much time to poke a bit. :) Edit - PS: Removing only the first one reports the error at the line of the second one. However, removing the second dot prevents the function from doin…
-
Removing the dots in both places removes the error, but the function no longer works. Removing only the first one doesn't remove the error. What I mean: $custom_content .= '<p class and $custom_content .= $content; Those two .= replaced with j…
-
Thank you - I'll give it a try. Interesting (for me at least): The function does its job with no problems, even when that error gets reported in the root directory. When I install and activate a plugin called “Subscribe To Comments Reloaded,” the…
-
(Quote) Same setup - plugins, themes, custom code. One website has problems with PHP 8.0 - the others work fine. Well - no problems, all functions great in the frontend - but I get that PHP error in the error log. The function my custom code does …
