(Quote) Good reminder to update my plugins list page. :) This was created using List category posts plugin (free): https://wordpress.org/plugins/list-category-posts/ This, on the other hand: https://bike.bikegremlin.com/reviews/tools/ is a page, …

(Quote) GDPR is a nightmare (and bullshit) IMO. :(

(Quote) I'm having problems when importing a (developed) website from MyW to HostMantis. Server just blocks the connection. Similar problems with some WP management plugins. Couldn't pinpoint the problem, but it exists. :( Just installin…

(Quote) Smaller reseller account got a hike from 20 $ to 50 $ in 2019, and now to 200 $. However, storage space got up from 25 to 50 GB - which doesn't change a thing for me, but it's only fair to say. :) Still early to make any plans (s…

My renewal price went from 100 to 600 dollars. :)

(Quote) Makes sense - I see how it might be tricky if you offered no email whatsoever. Haven't used (found) a shared host that doesn't offer emails, but if there was such - suppose it might make things more complicated. Having said that -…
-
(Quote) In the past I've used "terminal" from cPanel. Some providers offer that. I'ts not SSH, but it works wonderfully for DB migrations. Likewise, control panels have their own file managers, so any file copy/move on the server…

(Quote) Suppose a caching plugin that works with Redis is the sensible option. LiteSpeed is such, there may be others.
-
(Quote) I have several (stupid) questions: How does the python script get automatically run? Can it be configured on a (shared) hosting server? If one uses Cloudflare caching, then B2 charges are not very likely to affect them?
-
Not strictly WP related, more huge-file related (not sure if it is a good option for "regular" CDN of optimized images etc. What? BackBlaze B2 storage (very cheap, and very reliable) + Clouflare caching: https://help.backblaze.com/hc/en-us…
-
(Quote) In software development, it is often the case that the last 10% of a project take almost as much time as the first 90%. Still, the important thing is that it's being worked on, because that way it will get done - sooner, or later. Reall…
-
(Quote) First and foremost - thanks for reaching out. I had given up on JetBackup (and Softaculous for that matter) with DirectAdmin. They work very well on cPanel, but last time I tried on the DirectAdmin hosting I'm using, they wouldn't…
-
(Quote) I mean server load stats shown using PhpSysInfo (link with the pic), or within cPanel/WHM (cPanel itself shows it to users/customers), as shown here: (Image) (Quote) Yes, caching doesn't do much for the backend. Also, when doing majo…
-
(Quote) Have you checked server load stats? Because, everytime I check, server CPU is not even 50% loaded (unless cPanel server load info is lying). Also, for WordPress, depending on how one does the caching (and other optimizations), LiteSpeed that…
-
(Quote) Related to the parts of your post concerning shared (vs VPS) hosting: I would say it depends. I wrote here about VPS (vs shared). I would also add that there are good, and poor quality shared, as well as VPS providers. I've seen WP site…
-
(Quote) So, if I understand correctly, provided there's enough space for all the files (and backups), any extra storage does not affect performance? Another question: have you noticed any measurable performance gains from allowing WP to make m…
-
Goes without saying, but worth noting nonetheless: good work @vyas Question(s): How does the storage size play? I.e. why 5 GB for SSD, and 2 GB for NVMe? Small WP site takes under 200 MB of storage. I did notice problems when using backup plugins…

(Quote) Couldn't get it to work properly (probably due to not still patched to work with DirectAdmin control panel).
-
.> @bibi said: (Quote) For backups - there are practical upsides to automation. Because people make mistakes, and/or forget. Over the year's, I've made sure to have at least one remote copy always automated. This can be achieved withou…

(Quote) To quote myself? :) "Here is how to migrate from practically any SEO plugin, to practically any SEO plugin"
-
(Quote) In practice - LiteSpeed performance is very close (at least from my testing). In other words: if they both cost the same, or were both free ( :) ), I'd go with WP Rocket. Otherwise, I don't think it's worth it. Besides - Lite…
-
@Fritz If you are on a LiteSpeed server, think there's not much speed to be gained from WP Rocket - so in that case it's not worth it (IMO). But if not - it's probably the best (and very beginner friendly) caching solution. Here is …

(Quote) If you take care of that latter part, she might stop complaining about the former. :)
-
(Quote) I wrote about my Google AdSense setup (experiment). TL/DR: no Autoads - but did test that for a while. The theme is GeneratePress. Free version. As for your other questions: * The above linked article on AdSense shows speed test compariso…

My thoughts on The SEO Framework Pro (i.e. the paid version) plugin - for SEO, what else? :) Some months after having written on the free version of TSF.

(Quote) As far as I'm concerned - any hosting company could deadpool - nothing is guaranteed. Backups, always, prepared to move... I do currently host with them. Have more than a year of subscription left (until spring 2022). So, during 2021, I…

(Quote) Haven't you noticed these things (disk size, account number, and prices) change on the go? Check again in a month or two, to see what the situation is like. :)
-
(Quote) I think that's beautiful. :)

(Quote) It's Serbia - we got them smugglers! :) Mostly from German companies, they seem to replace hardware after only 3 years. Or people have become surprisingly good at stealing from banks. :) "Come to Serbia - your bicycles are alread…

For me, the best laptops for the money are used (2nd hand) company laptops, the business models (Dell, HP preferably). Paid some 350 euros for an i5, 8 GB RAM, discrete graphics card, 500 GB SSD - and the battery still in a surprisingly good conditi…

(Quote) Hardware solution - duct tape over the screen areas where ads are usually shown.

(Quote) I had to plug in the coffee machine somewhere... It'll be back on line soon. ... one sugar spoon, or two?

(Quote) On a more positive side - imagine you never had any millions to loose. :)
