In reply to: [Header Footer Code Manager] Does Your Plugin Add PHP Code SnippetsSo allowing potentially malicious code is fine by you if the user pays for it? I hope you see the error in your reasoning ??
In any case, good luck selling such a plugin when the offered functionality is already available in free alternatives.

In reply to: [Header Footer Code Manager] Does Your Plugin Add PHP Code SnippetsI need this to embed Disqus on my site, which relies on get_permalink(). Unfortunately this plugin does not support PHP embedding, so even tho I prefer the UI of this plugin, I had to revert to “Head, Footer and Post Injections”, because that one supports this functionality.
Oh and it also breaks the Media Library. The pictures are never loaded, it just shows the loading animation infinitely. At this point, this plugin is pretty much unusable and breaks WordPress itself altogether. Please fix asap.
Regarding the “Updating failed” message I’m positive it’s caused by the plugin, because if I deactivate the plugin, it goes away immediately. If I activate the plugin again, it comes back immediately.
I have no problem adding the widget. Most of the time it displays the workouts properly.
The problem I’m reporting is that the plugin blocks rendering the site until the lookup is finished. This results in increased load time (up to +30 seconds according to API.php), and sometimes even then results in failure.
To mitigate this, the plugin should render just a placeholder widget and run the queries in the background, and update the widget with actual data once obtained. This is what Disqus does, the “number of comments” are always updated after the site is already rendered.
Also, if lookups fail, it should retry that once or twice before giving up completely.
