C'mon WordPress, You can do Better

Related Posts (images not loading)
Photon (had to turn it off because images didn’t load)

Since the Related Posts module uses Photon to generate the Related Posts images, the 2 problems are most likely linked. Could you post a link to one of the posts where you experience these issues, so I can take a closer look?

If you want it to remain private, you can also contact us via this contact form:

Monitor (sites not always down when told so)

That may indeed happen, for a few reasons. I outlined how the Monitor service works here:

Hopefully that will help.

Mosaic tiled option not working

Tiled Galleries also rely on Photon to resize your images on the fly and create the tiled effect, so once again Photon might be the culprit. Could you post a link to one of your galleries so I can take a look?

allow users an option to receive a daily digest rather than receive it with each post.

That’s already possible. Subscribers can choose to receive daily or weekly digests instead of instantaneous emails here:

If there are other things you’d like us to improve with the Subscriptions module, let me know!

Again, i repeat, love Jetpack. Want to be with it forever. There’s love before criticism here.

Thanks for the kind words. We love criticism, that’s how we move forward! ??

Of all the plugins that should work the best with WordPress, it should be Jetpack because it’s from the same team.

Just to be clear, Jetpack is developed by Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com. WordPress, however, is developed by the entire WordPress community, by dozens of contributors from all over the world. Some of these contributors work for Automattic as well, but we can’t take credit for a project that’s maintained by so many people, that wouldn’t be fair ??

Thanks for the lengthy reply, Jeremy, and my apologies for being slow (as an activist, court cases took over my life and still in the mess of it).

Note that i have Photon turned off because it was giving probs so these are separate problems:

Related Posts: You can look at https://www.loveknysna.com/wicked-mikes-open-letter-to-knysna but most posts will show some images, sometimes all, missing.

Tiled Galleries: An example of it not working – https://www.loveknysna.com/photos-knysna-open-gardens-2014.

Monitor: So problem lies with my hoster for being slow. Thanks. I’ll chat to them.

Subscriptions: www.remarpro.com does not allow a daily or weekly digest. I would have thought and hoped it’d be standard cause it’s invaluable.

I checked that post, and got the following Related Posts:
https://i.wpne.ws/dd4g

The image seemed broken for the first post, so I looked into it a bit deeper.

Jetpack’s Related Posts module looks for the following image:
http:/www.loveknysna.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Wicked-Mike-in-pool.jpg

As you can see, it doesn’t exist. It’s still set as the post’s Featured Image, though, and that’s why Jetpack tries to use it. You should be able to fix this by picking a different Featured Image.

The third post, on the other hand, doesn’t display any image because you didn’t include any in the post. You can solve that by adding an image to that post, or by defining a default image that will be used for all posts that do not include an image. You can read more about it here:

Tiled Galleries: An example of it not working – https://www.loveknysna.com/photos-knysna-open-gardens-2014.

I can’t seem to access any of the images in this gallery. I immediately get redirected to your home page. Here is an example:

$curl -I https://www.loveknysna.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Knysna-Open-Gardens-2014-01-Cooke-garden-Leisure-Isle.jpg

Could you make sure the image are publicly accessible?

Subscriptions: www.remarpro.com does not allow a daily or weekly digest. I would have thought and hoped it’d be standard cause it’s invaluable.

I can’t speak for www.remarpro.com, but WordPress.com offers that option. Here is how it looks like:

If someone subscribes to your site using Jetpack Subscriptions, they’ll have access to that option here:
