S3 Total Cache Issue

    Hello,

    We are testing out this plugin to use across many of our WordPress sites. We use W3 Total Cache to bulk upload all media assets to S3 and also automatically upload any user uploads as they occur.

    After some testing today, the automatic upload does not seem to be happening. I can confirm that the optimized file is on the server, but the unoptimized files are uploaded to S3. This automated feature of W3 total cache is very valuable to us.

    Is there something I can change in the configuration to make this work. Is suspect that these plugins use a similar hook and one is fired before the other.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Not used W3 Total Cache much.

    Have you looked at using WP Offload S3 Lite

    Since it makes more sense you are storing the images in a S3 bucket to use CloudFront as the CDN.

    Yeah, I just looked at that a bit ago after reading another post on this support forum. The first issue is that we would have to switch on quite a few sites. A pain, but doable.

    The main issue is that the licensing for the pro version of that plugin won’t work well for us. If it was by site, or a one time fee, that is fine. We have too many sites to limit our S3 usage to the number of media uploads. :/

    We also like to have the caching potential of the plugin as needed.

    There are a lot of other caching plugins which support push CDNs.

    So when did it stop working?

    It was never working. We are considering using the Tiny PNG compression plugin across many of the sites at our agency, but we are already using W3 Total Cache. I did some tests today to see if the two are compatible after contacting [email protected]. These plugins seem to be about 90% compatible, but the single upload feature is the only thing that doesn’t seem to be working. Total cache works perfectly, and Tiny PNG works perfectly, they are just mistimed, so the file Total Cache uploads is not the file that Tiny PNG optimized.

    Current order of operations:
    – User Uploads Image
    – Total Cache Uploads Image to S3
    – Tiny PNG Optimizes Image

    Correct order of operations:
    – User Uploads Image
    – Tiny PNG Optimizes Image
    – Total Cache Uploads Image to S3

    For your information:
    The order of wordpress plugin execution is determined by two things:

    First and most importantly the hook on which the plugin is registered. For the TinyPNG plugin this hook is wp_generate_attachment_metadata.

    Secondly, the execution order of all plugins on the same hook is determined by priority rank. The TinyPNG plugin has the default priority value of 10.

    I hope this helps you on your way to resolve the conflicts between the plugins.
