#WORDPRESS [Ask Me Anything]

@IM Tycoon
My site has a total 12000 or more images. Few of them are in use right now. Rest, majority of those images are from old posts that I deleted in past.
My question is, is there a way to keep only those images that are in use and delete the rest, i.e non-used images..??

PS. My site has 250 posts and each posts contains 7-10 images.

Will be waiting for your reply.

Thanks in advance.
 
If i want to sell services with woocommerce how can i set it professionally getting orders and redirecting them after payment to a * your orders* form . Or is there any other way to sell services (NO PRODUCT) .
In woocommerce when i add enable virtual product option it still shows the theme same as iam selling a product and provide me a option to set a picture for my service or product . (Not a native English speaker ) :P
 
Hi IM Tycoon, Sent you my website wordpress url. Would love your expert opinion on how to reduce my high bouncerate %.

Thanks on advance
 
How much do you charge for a WordPress site on average? Couldn't come up with anything more creative...
 
@IM Tycoon

what the best plugins to get the best ever load speed in secounds .

what plugins and settings .

let say we got good host fast already what your preference in apps , plugins , themes .
Sorry for hijacking the thread, OP. :)

You can get the best speed by not using anything. As OP also touched on, less http requests = faster site. If you had 30kb to download in one request, it will be much faster than downloading 3kb * 10 ( 10 signifies requests). This happens because the server needs time to respond to the requests.

So, the best plugin is not using a plugin.

Now the question is, how would you cache everything without using a plugin? You could set the caching stuffs using your htaccess file. That would be much faster than using a plugin. You could also ditch apache for nginx, which can perform better especially if you have less RAM.

If you are not an advanced user, try using as less amount of plugins as possible.

Also, invest in a better server; which will result in faster response time.

can you minify css in wordpress without a plugin? what lazyload images?

can you do everything wp-rocket does without a plugin?

unfortunately, no way to have these conversations without hijacking OP's original thread.. But since it is all on the same topic, I hope OP would not mind : - )
 
can you minify css in wordpress without a plugin?
Ofcourse you can. :)

You could use LESS/SASS for your theme. Not only does css preprocessors allow you to use loops, variables etc, it also has option for minifying the output. Additionally, in your htaccess, you could have rules like so..

For gzip compression:
Code:
<ifModule mod_gzip.c>
  mod_gzip_on Yes
  mod_gzip_dechunk Yes
  mod_gzip_item_include file .(html?|txt|css|js|php|pl)$
  mod_gzip_item_include handler ^cgi-script$
  mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/.*
  mod_gzip_item_include mime ^application/x-javascript.*
  mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/.*
  mod_gzip_item_exclude rspheader ^Content-Encoding:.*gzip.*
</ifModule>

For caching:
Code:
<ifModule mod_expires.c>
  ExpiresActive On
  ExpiresDefault "access plus 1 seconds"
  ExpiresByType text/html "access plus 1 seconds"
  ExpiresByType image/gif "access plus 2592000 seconds"
  ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access plus 2592000 seconds"
  ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 2592000 seconds"
  ExpiresByType text/css "access plus 604800 seconds"
  ExpiresByType text/javascript "access plus 216000 seconds"
  ExpiresByType application/x-javascript "access plus 216000 seconds"
</ifModule>

what lazyload images?
Again, you don't need a WP plugin for this. You can achieve the same thing using a jquery plugin in the theme (just include the JS in your header.php.. oh yeah.. header.php in this case, because it's a lazy loader).


Talking about lazy loading, I made one lazy loading plugin myself (shameless self promotion lol :D ). You can use it if you like... The source is here (the compressed version is only 1.07 KB)..
Code:
https://github.com/noc2spam/yalil


can you do everything wp-rocket does without a plugin?
You have to be more specific on that, but 99.99% chances are, that yes I can lol.

Hi
I'm also want to start wp. Can you please help me where to start this journey. Or share your experience.
 
Which plugin is the best to optimize image so that website will load faster?
 
What is best theme (woo commerce) for clothing shop ? Main traffic will come from mobile.

Well there's so many themes available but personally i like Divi for amazing look & feel of layouts over mobile with well optimized speed.

Interested in this, will have some questions later :)

Sure !!


What do you think of plugin like wprocket to speed up website.Do they actually help?

Yes definitely, go with wp-rocket. It worth the cost.


can you please help me out to find the Best WordPress theme for blog?

Can you write the niche of blog ?


what do you usually put in your robots.txt file when your page is wordpress theme?

Interesting Question !!

Well earlier we're only using it not to show login page into Google SERP. But later on realized, it is also very helpful to control you visibility in SERP.
It means, you can tell Google Crawler which pages not to show in google and only show pages which generate leads, make sales or accomplish your website goals.

I have sitemap issue. Can you help?

PM me the details. Would glad to help you.
 
I am currently using basic yoast and thinking to upgrade to yoast premium so what do you recommend ? Is there any real benefit in using the premium version or i should just stick with basic version also does it really help our site to rank up using these seo tools.

Thanks

For this, you would need some plugin to delete unused images like unattached with in content, featured images etc.

Couple of plugins available but i don't think so they are robust and work any more.

Either you develop some plugin or find relevant in codecanyon.

If i want to sell services with woocommerce how can i set it professionally getting orders and redirecting them after payment to a * your orders* form . Or is there any other way to sell services (NO PRODUCT) .
In woocommerce when i add enable virtual product option it still shows the theme same as iam selling a product and provide me a option to set a picture for my service or product . (Not a native English speaker ) :p

Virtual Product actually means a digital deliverable product.

So you should find some relevant theme or plugin for this. In my experience, i've override the woocommerce templates & hooks to achieve custom specifications.

You need to see, whether you can afford custom service or buy some relevant wp product.

I think you're looking to learn wordpress, then pick good channel in youtube and learn the basic stuff first.
Best of luck !!


Which plugin is the best to optimize image so that website will load faster?

With plugin, you can try Smush Image Compression or manually you can download compressed images from GTMetrix.

Hope this help.
