I have deleted your plugin because of speed issues. It hangs in the handshake with google, and that is not acceptable. Speed came back immediately after deleting it.
Re: Your ridiculous auto updating…
You should think of the last 20 years as Microsoft updated quote-unquote, “Security Issues,” and in some instances over the years have created total havoc around the world, all because of their updates. All the while having to come back in a matter of days only to fix them.
Plugins, on the other hand, are a matter of compatibility. And unless you have 100 plugins installed on 100 different testing installs, then you should not rely on your coding gut instinct. I’ve seen the best, most elite coders, fall on their face and ego thinking they are superior only to have one character on one line break another plugin or be incompatible with it..
I strongly disagree with your auto updating, no matter what the reasoning you may have. You are infringing on our freedom to decide whether or not to update. It’s always best practice for end users to wait a day or two (or a week) to see if the author comes out with a new update because of issues. In fact, I just saw an example last week with a plugin that was updated 3 times in 3 days because of compatibility and/or bug reports.
At least, when a plugin offers their updates, the end user can therefore know, right away, that it was your or another author’s fault, and then it can be addressed and fixed.
There are too many newbies out there, as well as ppl who do NOT do staging, mirrored backups, etc., nor would they understand that, one day they login, only to find their site is down, not knowing who to blame, or what happened.
YOU are the only plugin that is doing this that I’VE EVER used, and you are no longer going on 214 of my sites.
Have a nice day. I do not want a reply.
