In reply to: [Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster] Stay AwayHi again,
Unfortunately I cannot upload screen captures but you can find them here:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/xuisddeqzuc9sn9/Screenshot%202019-04-02%20at%2015.58.38.png?dl=0I already wrote that, upon installation, the plugin creates a second option page that you can see in the captures. The page is then deleted. The only function of this page is to spam you and make you download another plugin. The form clearly uses Dark Patterns to trick you. I don’t know if it also gets the admin e-mail to send you unsolicited e-mail, as the guy here (https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/the-constant-spams-and-nags-are-very-annoying/) seems to imply. I almost submitted the form when the Network Monitor app on my testing machine stopped me. You can be certain that the plugin owner gets a cash back from the users he manages to pass to Freemius. Is this practice acceptable?
I use this WP account since 2008 and I’m a member of the community since the very early days. I’m not the type of person that goes around blaming fellow developers for spamming users. But it is clear to me that we must draw a line here.
And this is all I had to say on the matter. I’m not going to continue arguing on what is spam and what is not. You are the moderator @jdembowski, you decide.

In reply to: [Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster] Stay AwayHi all,
On installation the plugin directs you to an option page that requests you to install a plugin outside the ww.wp.xz.cn. To my book this is spam.
Also @jdembowski, isn’t you who is responding to a similar complain?

In reply to: [Disqus Comment System] Plugin won’t save my API Access TokenThe issue has to do with Cloudflare. I have the same problem on a site using a Cloudflare paid plan. On the staging version though, that bypasses the Cloudflare service, works fine. This almost certainly has to do with how Cloudflare handles SSL. I also found here (https://www.howson.me/fixing-disqus-comments-when-using-cloudflare/) that in order to run the Disqus scripts you need to add data-cfasync=”false” to bypass Cloudflare’s rocket loader.

Thanks.

In reply to: [Page Transition] Dequeue StyleThanks for your swift reply 🙂
@shaver Thank you for the link I’ll sure take a look.
I understand developers don’t like to spend their time explaining things but since there is some type of documentation, I can’t see why they do not share it in the description of the plugin?Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Custom post types not showing on category archive pagesTo make custom post types to show up in a regular category archive you have to add to the query your post type.
For example try this:
http://www.site.com/category/category_name/?post_type=my_post_typeYou can use a pre_get_posts filter to add the required post type information. Read this for details:
