A problem for drop shipping businesses is gaining sufficient traffic, and surmounting the long shipment times compared to locally delivered or Amazon or other supply-chain fulfillment. Strengths include the ability to build up a clientele, develop product displays including documentation and...

Excluding the administration area of wordpress or specific plugins should eliminate CDN and local server caching errors. The routing or www. or other sub-domains of your domain starts with the setting of an 'A record' at your DNS host. You should have an A record for www that points to the URL...

You can use one of the Wordpress backup/migration plugins such as Duplicator to backup your site and transfer it to the new host. If you are using a wordpress specific host or one that is commonly used by wordpress sites, the process should be easy per the migration plugin instructions. If you...

My suggestion is to not use Cloudflare as there are compatibility problems and I find it harder rather than easier to work with than most CDN. You should exclude the alidropship plugin and directory from being cached locally and by the CDN to prevent conflicts. The plugin is used to pull in...

One trick to improve performance by a couple percent is to edit the php.ini file or, if available to you, a custom PHP config file to include a line as suggested by the ioncube installation manual as follows (for alidropshipwoo plugin - modify for different directory name for non-woocommerce...

Jasin, It seems that you are on the right track for your needs. If your core market is in Europe, then it makes sense to host from a site close to your users. CDN/s located in your secondary markets makes sense. If you were to ramp up, then you should move to VPS so that you have more control...

The new version for PHP7.1 Ioncube encoder is available for download. I have yet to install this as the server must be upgraded to include PHP7.1 instead of PHP7.0 that I was using. To use PHP7.1+ as your chosen version of PHP you must download the corresponding version (PHP7.1+) of the...

BTW, If anyone is looking to have their own high-performance VPN/VPS server and is capable of taking on the self-administration, I have a extra one available at this time. It is more expensive way to go than a shared-host server and requires knowledge or learning of Virtualmin/Webmin, but it is...

Yes, that works for many sites. The preferred way to build a high traffic or long-term maintainable site is not to use shortcodes except as cannot be avoided. Use of shortcodes is not easily reversible: if a shortcode plugin is removed, the shortcode remains in the files and shows up as broken...

Thanks for the upload of the Davinci child theme. You have answered the objective of the topic heading. This improves upon the theme. Some elements, including the entire header area, including the menu and images, cannot be edited or extended using some Wordpress plugins. To deviate to the...

Yes, the use of a child theme generator plugin was mentioned previously. However, my post is directed at the situation in which the parent theme or its external dependencies, such as CSS files that do not fit into the normal flow and cannot be addressed using a child-theme generator fix is...

There are trade-offs between using the alidropship plugin and the woocommerce version. This site does a good job of explaining the differences in features between the two. However, there are other things worth considering including: If you wish to use some page editors such as BeaverBuilder...

If you wish to use an Alidropship authored theme and do not want any updates of the plugin to impact your custom CSS or other customization work, one way to work around the over-writing is: 1) Use a ftp, SSH, or control panel file browser. 2) Go to the site's wordpress folder. For Linux Centos...

Skyrocket et al: The Ioncube encoder specific to PHP7.1 must be used - so the current alidropship plugin for PHP7.0 will not work on PHP7.1 Follows is an explanation from Ioncube: LIMITATIONS OF LOADERS AND ENCODED FILES ---------------------------------------- Encoded files can, in general...

PHP 7.0 is supported only through December 2017. PHP 7.1 is supported through December 2018. PHP 7.2 is now out and is supported through December 2019. It makes little sense to support PHP 7.0 and not PHP7.1 or PHP7.2. Server platforms are going through a transition to the new versions of PHP...
