That’s unfortunate because this the safest place. I hope the developer may address this issue in a future update. * Fabrice * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Knews Multilingual Newsletters] Please help.

Any value defined here sets the default speed to `2 test mode` in the admin. * However, I found the source of the tracking pixel problem thanks to your last post: “simply define it on wp-config.php on root”, you wrote. “on root”. Wordpress installation allows, and even recommends, that we put the wp-config.php OUTSIDE the root folder. Into the root’s parent folder if we have permissions to do so. I do that because it’s far more secure and anybody being allowed to do so should. Bringing the wp-config back to the www folder bring back the kitten but I won’t do it. I’d rather keep the wp-config at the top level. Do you think you can change that? * Regards, Fabrice * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Knews Multilingual Newsletters] Please help.

As for the tracking pixel issue, it worked once, but now it’s gone. I guess an htaccess rule prevents it to work properly. I’m reluctant to work on it right now know because the website is in production. * 1) What I’d like now, is to get a valid `KNEWS_CUSTOM_SPEED` constant. But when I define it, it’s just ignored. 2) As I wrote earlier, the `subscribe` form on your website is totally broken for me. It’s a shame for a website dedicated to a newsletter plugin and a bad signal for customers. * Thanks for your time, Fabrice * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Knews Multilingual Newsletters] Please help.

I just updated now, removed the silly wp-conf but still no luck with tracking pixel. Frankly, I’m not willing to put much effort with this plugin. At least it works for the most part and I’m very doubtful it is reliable at this point. 1) No kitten. 2) No change log for 1.7.7 update. 3) Stupid forgotten php file. 4) The first custom constant I tried to configure (following the examples [here](http://knewsplugin.com/the-knews-config-constants/) is just totally ignored. 5) Did you try the ‘subscribe’ form on their website? Lot-of-fun experience for me (tested with Firefox 40 and Safari 8 on Mac). * Thanks, Fabrice * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Knews Multilingual Newsletters] Please help.

Actually I found your post shortly after I posted this. Removing the forgotten wp-config file did solved the problem. * Ironically, now it’s broken again for me.

WordPress doesn’t allows you to ditch the title. This info is needed to construct the slug, view your posts in list, as well as retrieving the post by name or title; you have to keep it and I’d suggest you find a good use for it. However, the editor can be disabled. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[MailPoet Newsletters (Previous)] "Oops!
