r/Wordpress

Quick question

I'm only a year into all this after having the company website dumped on me after the website manager left and I can't stand the way the site has to clear the cashe every time I update a plugin as the site seems slow on mobile anyway so my question is do I have to clear the cashe every time,

I have made significant changes since I was asked to do this but so much is new to me not having any previous experience.

Thanks in advance

Do people have test sites for testing random plugins etc?

Might be a silly question, but do people have test / dummy WordPress sites for testing stuff? I'm not super experienced so apologies if this is rookie.

I'm often reading about a plugin / theme and thinking I'd like to test it. I have a Cloudways server - should I just have a dummy site on there that I keep for testing stuff like this? Is that normal or is there another way?

FYI I'm not talking about staging sites, I get about those. I'm more thinking about a total 'testing ground' type idea which will never be a live / used site, just somewhere for a designer / dev to test new tools

Thoughts about ACPT plugin as an alterbative for ACF

Im a Freelance website developer who builds website using elementor and bricks builder

So Im specialized in building dynamic sites for clients as it is the easier way for the clients to handle posts, services, testimonials, portfolio etcc..,

So as of now im getting crocoblock from my friend as he has license for that but the crocoblock has a lot of features so i think i dont want to use that for these dynamic sites

So i searched for alternatives and i get to know that there is a plugin named acpt.io

So is that a reliable option to go with...an i can buy lifetime plan on that

Also my main need is repeater fields and gallery fields

Edit: is acpt support with Elementor and Bricks?

DigitalOcean setup for WordPress plugin store (~7k visitors/month) — need advice

Hey everyone,

I run a WordPress site where I sell my own plugins (not huge traffic yet, around ~7k visitors/month). Currently planning to move to DigitalOcean and trying to figure out the right setup.

My main questions:

  • Is a 2 vCPU / 4GB RAM droplet enough for this kind of workload?
  • Is it okay to run MySQL on the same droplet, or should I consider a managed database?
  • Any recommended stack? (NGINX vs OpenLiteSpeed, caching, Redis, etc.)
  • How does this setup usually handle plugin downloads + some logged-in users?
  • Rough monthly cost I should realistically expect?

I’m comfortable managing a server but don’t want to overcomplicate things or overspend at this stage.

Would really appreciate hearing from people running similar setups 🙏

WooCommerce v10.7 is all about performance improvements

WooCommerce v10.7 is a major performance release, slashing database queries by 51% on HPOS orders and up to 39% during checkout with object cache enabled.

The Store API caches the Last-Modified timestamp on the products endpoint, further reducing database load for repeat requests.

Other improvements include enhanced order tracking, more powerful analytics exports, accessibility enhancements, and incremental improvements to the email editor.

Created a very minimal plugin to lock WP plugin update, and add a note as to why

Site admins can easily lock the plugin update and add a note next to it as a reason why the plugin was locked.

Use case.

I recently had an issue with a plugin, where the latest update cause color leak into the Gutenberg editor. So I reverted back to the previous version, but it now show, the usual update available notice.

Now a few days later, I might visit the site again, see the update notice and will update again. When you manage many sites, trying to remember each such cases is difficult.

What to do?

Just lock this plugin. And write a note reasoning, why I locked it. So next time I see the update notice, I can't update. Neither individually nor as bulk update. Once I make sure in a test site everything is working I can update.

Avada builder is not working

Hello, I was asked to update this website, and it uses Avada Builder, which seems to be a frontend builder, but it isn’t loading. I’ve already cleared the cache and looked for solutions online, but nothing has worked so far. I’m still getting this kind of error:

Experimenting with Woocommerce-compatible 3D Product configurator [Live Demo]

I’ve been experimenting with a more interactive approach to product pages..

The idea is to make the product page itself more engaging and easier to interact with, rather than relying only on static woocommerce images.

Live demo: https://aecync.com/170426

How something like this would fit into a real store?
