What is the best plugin for taking purchases for a 12 week online training program? Need to collect as much info on the customers as possible and have to be able to track conversions with Facebook pixel and Google ads tag. Not looking for a LMS, just to take payments and collect info. They will be emailed a link with access to the program with their login.

I am not able to edit my last question..
I was able to get my site load to 0.7s tested by Pingdom, but my google page insights score got worse. I set up AMP by some tutorial I found if you have one I would highly appreciate it, but my google page insights score for mobile did not improved

 

[fullwall3t]

Also amp is not loading if I visit my site via mobile by direct url or when I google search my website.. But if I ad /amp it loads. But without any ads on my website.. I have no idea what to do even thought I was googling it quite a lot

Contact form 7 is the simpliest and easily modified. If you need something advanced -Gravity forms

Thank you for your prompt response.

Yeah, currently I am using Uptime Robot for a little Server check.

Do you use any special tool to monitor all your Wordpress? recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Hi @ther3frigerator - I am sorry for the late reply. I am not using a particular monitor tool especially for WordPress.
All of my websites are being monitored by Pingdom: https://www.pingdom.com/product/uptime-monitoring/

Any plugin recommendations for stripe integration on buttons ?

Yeah sure!

Thanks @Festinger for the prompt reply.

The website name is americanmam.com, you will notice that it's still under design and most data are just sample data, the Arabic text on the middle is a part of the website but it don't have to be placed there, I'm just testing the alignment with it.

How to you think I should proceed?

Best regards,

You will be better of with a premium theme, instead of a free one. As far as I can see, this theme is not supporting RTL.

Hi Festinger, can I have your thoughts on stuff like this: https://codecanyon.net/item/mass-site-visitor/18207656/comments

Are they useful for boosting site visitors?

What's the point of bringing fake traffic to your website with the notice that no 'bot' visitor will convert in a sale?
I wouldn't use it (except for Alexa Ranking) as it ruins your Google Analytics data as well.

Need fast magazine theme for mobiles.
Now I'm using Magone theme and managed to get 95 by Google pagespeed on desktop version, but on mobile i;m struggling with only 45 ...
Any recommendations?

I would go for NewsMag theme: https://themeforest.net/item/newsmag-news-magazine-newspaper/9512331

How can I improve my website speed for mobile devices? If I test my site via PageSpeed insights
For desktop/pc devices I score over 90 all the time, but for mobile devices I score under 40.
I have tried amp and wp touch, it did not improve my mobile speed and made my pc score worse.

Google is providing detailed feedback if your score is under 40?
Image compression, enabling G-zip, faster webhosting, mobile optimalizations... it will depends on a large variety of factors.
It's hard to tell you which will increase the mobile score. My call would be: install WP Rocket and adjust the settings according to the Google suggestions.

What is the best plugin to be used for Contact form for the updated wordpress?

I have a few personal favorites: for the more complex contact forms, like registration forms, I'd like to use Gravity Forms. But for a simple contact form, you can use Contact Form 7.
I would recommend to install Flamingo as well, a nice way to collect the submitted entries: https://wordpress.org/plugins/flamingo/

I have web site write articles with english , but i need to add those with our native language. I native language didn't support for adsence . So what should i do. Create a sub domain or use a different domain with new site?

I would create a different domain with a new website and make it Ad-Sense proof.

You can make something like this with Gravity Forms and add a PayPal payment module to it.
GF also enables the feature to register users. I would use conditional fields.

Thanks for reply. I did try that but in most cases I have no idea how to fix the error. I have finally setted up the amp which scores great in google page insights. Only problem is, that I don't know what I am doing wrong, because if I type my website in my mobile phone or I try to google it and visit my website via phone, it won't show me my site with amp settings but if i type mywebsite.com/amp it works the way it should. I have also tested this way if the amp is setted up correctly

What is your favorite WP theme to use? Why?

 

[mhtro]

Do you know any plugin that automatically uploads all the images you have on your WP site to Imgur and then replaces them site wide with a imgur embed? I've seen alot of sites use Imgur as a CDN.

Why every single wordpress plugin and template seems to be manipulating purchases? It's either plugins with purchases buried deep within, or templates that incorporates plugins that loses its' functionality. I'm talking about licensed ones from E...

How to hide back-links from competitors

 

[staypositive]

hi there, thx for the great thread
i have been searching around for quite a while for the following solution.
what i want to achieve is to have a user registration form that integrates with mautic, so that when my users sign up, they will get into my email auto responder chain.

but i also need them to be registered as wordpress users at the same time so that they can enjoy some content that i locked only available for subscribed users.

what make things more complicated is that i will need to have the facebook and google+ login integration to increase optin rate.

what i have done in the past is using Users Ultra plugin for the fb and google+ login issue

i also figured that ConvertPlug and Thrive Leads can handle mautic integration but they cannot handle the fb and google one button click login.

so i am now stuck in the middle seeking for a solution for all of these... any idea pls?
