Hi

You say “So that means that whatever problem is occurring on your site and Mariette’s site is local to something on your website’s and not an issue/prob…” – just to clarify, I wasn’t having a problem. I was interested in the outcome of this thread because I have been manually adding the WP Rocket htaccess to the PBPS custom code for several years and I was delighted to hear that this had been automated. However, I didn’t want to switch to using this method if it wasn’t working.

thanks

Great. That will save some time when it’s working again.

I’ve added myself to the other thread so I will find out when the automation is sorted and I can delete the custom code additions.

thank you

Hi, sorry for the delayed response (we had a bank holiday yesterday in the UK).

I think that page is excellent, and a great idea to add the feature to turn off IP logging.

My only comment would be that the bit about where the log is stored and that nothing is added to the database would be helpful at the top of the page – those seem like crucial details to me.

Thanks very much for the GDPR info page – really helpful.

And, hahaha, that’s so true about the licence plate analogy. It’s all got a bit out of hand, hasn’t it…!

By the way, would it be possible to put this data protection info on a page on your website, so I can link to it (for clients’ data processing agreement etc)?

That would be really helpful…

I have read that an IP address should be considered personal data as it enters the scope of ‘online identifiers’. See here (bottom of the page): https://eugdprcompliant.com/personal-data/

I agree that logging for security purposes is legitimate. I think it would come under the category of ‘legitimate interest’ as a lawful basis for processing – but I’m no expert or lawyer!

Hi

Thank you – that’s really helpful.

One thing though – my understanding is that IP addresses are considered personal data for the purposes of GDPR.

thanks again
Mariette

My point is that it is a lot for one person.

I think 100 euros is too much for one person to pay so I will find an alternative solution.

Thanks

Ah, OK. I’m glad I asked.

Thanks for explaining and for the fix.

all the best
M

Thank you very much – that worked perfectly!

Thank you – that explains it.

So, would it be right to say that in future it would be best practice to include labels but it is not essential to go back and correct existing forms?

Hi Hal

I think I understand the problem and if it is possible, my preference would be for the max temp for the day. Seems the most logical somehow, but others may disagree.

Thank you again for persevering with this.

best wishes
Mariette

Hi

The days are working now, thank you, but the temperatures shown are wrong. The widget says:

Actual website https://openweathermap.org/city/2653197 says:

Not high or low or average…
