In reply to: [Quick Page/Post Redirect Plugin] AvoidJust clear the cache
Same here… site has slowed right down… I’m about to disable it and move on like to know if there are any solutions that come about though… I love the plugin but it slows things down too much
Same as the rest here… it appeared to be working then upgraded at first it messed up sitemaps on two different sites now it’s slowing the sites down too much to be useable.
Been using for years and was thinking about buying 1 or two of the upgrades but it’s become a monster… too big and too long to load.
I’m about to disable and I don’t use w3 cache. Appreciate knowing if any fixes come along

In reply to: Should warn People !!!!Yer right… good experience, now I know all that 🙁 I think the part that caused me the most grief though was this automatic update… I felt I had to upgrade at least one site before the “automatic update” updated all four sites.
I know that it’s good experience however I would like to be the one that decides when I need to learn something. I don’t like this auto update and I still think there should be a warning when and if an update potentially effects the functionality as is the case with the issue many are currently having with the visual editor.
One of the themes I am using is itself beta and the use of some plugins is necessary for the theme to work. The theme author is already up to his ears fixing a wide range of bugs.
I realize now that the wp update won’t update major updates and that it is possible to turn the update feature off however I think that the update feature should have been optional and at the very least explained with the release of 3.7 or whenever it came out.
I mean to say, I can’t be the only person learning wordpress and I can see throughout this forum that I am not the only one having problems.
I sincerely do appreciate everybody on this forum and the help they provide live and learn I guess 🙂

In reply to: Should warn People !!!!Thanks for your thought Samuel. I tried all of the above mentioned to no avail so I deleted the entire site and reloaded an older version of wordpress. This has a least solved the problem on that particular site. One down 4 to go. Fortunately I only installed 3.9 on two of them.
Problem is I am not a programer and am just learning how to use wordpress, had I known this was a “major” update and possibly not compatible with plugins and or themes I would not have installed it… it’s that simply.
Your response to suggesting I’m “yelling it’s broke just fix it” is to me really quite immature and a dumb thing to suggest. I simply wish that whoever is responsible for making a new release of this magnitude had mentioned that there may be problems and to possibly wait and or try it out on a test site or something.
Enough said, so far I, personally, am not a fan of wp 3.9 because it just caused me 3 days of work that I could have spent doing other things and to realize that had a simple caution warning been put forth before upgrading would have helped the situation to the point where I wouldn’t have wasted three days of my life needlessly.

In reply to: visual editor disappeared when i upgraded to 3.9Yes I have seen this canned answer already. I am not a developer or programer and even if I were able to see a problem in the code, I wouldn’t know what to do.
I have ZERO plugins running and have changed to 2014, reloaded 3.9 and still the editor does not work
Please advise if and when there is a bug free version of 3.9 (or fix) available that works on all browsers without needing to do anything.

In reply to: visual editor disappeared when i upgraded to 3.9You are fortunate in that you are able to see errors… I don’t dare mess around with code issues because I’m not a programmer and don’t want to mess things up. Meanwhile the site seems to running OK, I just can’t edit anything or add anything, I hope there is an update soon that solves this issue.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Should warn People !!!!OK… you can move it where ever you want to Ipstenu, I really don’t care!
I am having “my own issues” with it and have made “a topic” unfortunately, people such as yourself are only able to offer the same ineffectual advice as you are.
I have ZERO and I repeat ZERO plugins running on a site that is using Customizer (I think over 500,000 installations +/-) and I have changed themes in addition to re-installing wordpress 3.9 and the visual editor is still not working.
Given the number of people having similar issues, I would suggest that a very clear warning about this update should have been posted and in this persons opinion wordpress should not be encouraging people to up date to 3.9 as it is.
The fact that you think this release is “just dandy” is subjective at best. At this point I would definately use other words to describe it because it has cost me many hours of frustration.
If you have anything constructive to offer as opposed to moving conversations around and deleting others I would like to hear a legitimate solution to what appears to be a widespread problem.

In reply to: visual editor disappeared when i upgraded to 3.9Has there been any updates on this ? I’m trying to follow about 10 different postings on the same subject 🙁
I wish I never heard about 3.9
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Should warn People !!!!Then it should be said this is a “ddevelopment version” and I was afraid this would update automatically and I would be in trouble on all sites, something else they should have explained before updating to version 3.7
Obviously I’m not the only person having this issue… http://goo.gl/UTnl0f What’s wrong woth leaving in Beta until known bugs are worked out?

In reply to: [Customizr] visual editor not workingDatabase corruption? doesn’t sound good 🙁
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: visual editor in 3.9 brokenI have deactivated ALL plugins, changed the theme to 2014 (visual editor didn’t work) 2012 (didn’t work) reinstalled wp-3.9 (still does not work)
At this point I don’t know what to do, I sure wish we had some warning this may happen, I simply would have waited for a while.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Visual editor not working after updating 3.9For those of us that are NOT developers, it would have been nice to know that perhaps we should wait for a while before updating… I have wasted the past 4 hours and still can’t fix it !
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Customizr] visual editor not workingI tried installing that but it didn’t do anything… still no editor. I have disabled all plugins and changed themes but it still doesn’t work. Even in text editor, it’s a blank page but the site is still visible.
Thanks for trying though 🙁
