Re: Private: Twitter Apps Can Only Grow so Far

ok, I see you have a real problem now.
my guess is this is either a temporary problem and it will be fixed once they manage to upgrade their system to scale better
or it's the first step to paid API access

isn't this limit per account. And if it is then why not use your user's credentials to do the api requests.
If it's a per ip limit just get more ips, they are relatively cheap .
Of course this is a short term solution, they are probably going to charge for extra api requests.
But you should have seen this coming, it's impossible to handle any number of api requests from anyone. there's no such thing as scaling a system to infinite and for free too.

Re: exim and domainkeys on debian

if it shows mailed by it means something is not working at the domainkeys level. Look at the message source if it has the signature in there maybe something's wrong with the DNS entries.

Re: XML Sitemaps for Pligg

Make sure mod_rewrite in .htacces or virtual hosts configuration works first. If you managed to have pligg friendly urls work then this should work too.
Look into the module's configuration it explains clearely what you have to put into .htaccess to have a nice looking sitemap.
The final sitemap is actually a sitemap index ( this is the one that ou'll be sending to the SEs ) and it should be http://www.gevaldigg.com/sitemapindex.xml
Good luck.

for this to work you need to have certain rewrite rules set up. The examples for apache are in the module configuration. My guess is you didn't set them or there's something wrong with the way you set them.

sometimes people say 'no' because that's what they want everybody to hear. He ( the ceo of Biotech ) must have his good reasons for that and it's unlikely to change. But I don't think that there will be any legal consequences if somehow you manage to administer the drug

if it's sending to you it will probabbly do the same for your visitors.
You have to check is there is a table named wp_cr_emailed in your wordpress database
If there isn't you'll have to create it ... read the comments on this post http://patchlog.com/wordpress/more-optimization... to find out how to create it

Re: Xml Sitemaps pligg module v0.9

symx — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 08:14:10 -0000

if you really don't care about which page has higher priority and you just want variety then this will work for you:
replace those two lines with this one:
$pri=rand(1,1000)/1000;

Having an interface where you could have better control would be nice but I don't have the time to do that right now.

That sitemap is just the one for pages like main mage, upcomming, categories and maybe others. It doesn't seem like it's missing anything but there are more sitemaps that you have to send to google. The other sitemaps will be named sitemap-x.xml ( where x is a number starting with 1 )
like this one: http://www.santabarbara.net/sitemap-0.xml
You will have to send a sitemap index to google ( http://www.santabarbara.net/sitemapindex.xml ) . The sitemap index will contain links to all those sitemaps.

Your sitemap is correct. Just because you sent the sitemap to google it doesn't mean your pages will be instantly indexed.

Re: More optimization for comment relish plugin

symx — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 02:46:30 -0000

The only problem that might exist but may now show up for everybody is that the plugin doesn't create the database when you install it.
You can check your wp db after you install it. If you see a table named {wp_prefix}_cr_emailed then it's ok.If not then you should create the db manually by running this sql in a mysql client like phpmyadmin or whatever you use:

CREATE TABLE {wp_prefix}_cr_emailed (
emailed_ID mediumint(9) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
time bigint(11) DEFAULT ‘0′ NOT NULL,
email varchar(255) NOT NULL,
UNIQUE KEY emailed_ID (emailed_ID),
INDEX ( email )
);

WP_PREFIX is the prefix that all wordpress tables have. By default this is 'wp' .

You can rewrite the formula as you wish. but if you have 40000 links and the votes range is small how is giving the votes 60% going to improve the uniqueness of the priority ?

Re: Xml Sitemaps pligg module v0.9

symx — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 09:21:51 -0000

Temi, please look at the discussions above about changing the formula if you really care about turning off those warnings.

You should also read google help that says that a waring is just that ... it's not an error and it doesn't mean they will not process your sitemap if you have those warnings. The only problem is they don't know which is more important to you.

Re: Xml Sitemaps pligg module v0.9

symx — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 13:41:36 -0000

the fact that you divided by 3600 gives the priority more decimals ... maybe too many... And I think google doesn't like that

use : $v=round((time()-$link->date)/3600,3);
instead of what you used before and let me know if you still have a problem

Re: Xml Sitemaps pligg module v0.9

symx — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 13:31:13 -0000

That's not your sitemap. It's the sitemap index. IT only contains links to other sitemaps. Go to the links in it and you'll see the actual sitemaps.

Re: More optimization for comment relish plugin

symx — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 23:05:24 -0000

You could do that if you would create a system to send emails in batches ... right now the plugin hooks into the comment posting function so it would be unacceptable to make the user wait for 2-5 minutes before his comment is posted.
