meetingguide

Hm, that sucks! Caching in and of itself is not a bad thing, but it does need to be refreshed.

Does your site use the upcoming meetings widget or having the upcoming meetings view?

I think if the cache were updated every hour then we might be ok.

Is there a setting you can set to have it do that?

Or is there a way we can ask/trick GoDaddy into refreshing?

I don’t know if this will work but a comment at the bottom of this page (https://cantonbecker.com/etcetera/2014/how-to-disable-wordpress-caching-at-godaddy/) suggests that if you visit your site with a URL like http://www.url.com/?GD_NONCE then that might refresh it.

If that works, then maybe using a site like uptimerobot.com to check your site on an automated hourly schedule would work?

Hey Tim,

I’m afraid there’s nothing I can think of to help with that aside from turning the caching off, or seeing if there’s a way to exclude, for example, the /meetings route.

The plugin itself recently introduced its own file-based caching, so it really shouldn’t be necessary for the server to provide its own.

Ok! Well one day hopefully we’ll have a system that allows people to override Google, but not sure an ETA on that.

Until then, some sites do send me coordinates when they need to request an override.

Not currently, no. In cases where there is a weird address, please let me know and I can work with you. In some cases we can do an override of Google’s info.

It’s working again, that’s great.

Something odd is going on with the paths on your site. Looks like it got moved recently and the server name hasn’t been updated. Instead of trying to load the CSS from

http://nnig.org/plugins/wp-content/12-step-meeting-list

it’s loading from

http://box5737.temp.domains/~nnigorg/wp-content/plugins/12-step-meeting-list

That discrepancy is what’s causing the problem.

I think if you go to WordPress > Settings you should be able to change the URLs there and fix it.

We’d love to also add you to the meeting guide app if/when you’re ready 🙂

Hi Dave,

There’s no shortcode to show the meeting finder, but what you could do is link to the main meeting list, pre-filtered for Joburg, eg /meetings/?tsml-region=johannesburg

Yes, when you visit the page it looks up the address and tries to place it on the map. Then you just have to hit save and it gets saved.

Not sure how it got messed up for those meetings. You’d only really need to do it for the ones that don’t have maps on the detail page. And you’d only need to do it once per location and it’d fix the other meetings at that location.

I’ll let you know when the bug you found is fixed!
