Good idea! I just tried that.

Then the CDN urls of the autoptimize.css change to:

https://static.it-service24.com/wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize…
https://www.it-service24.at/wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize..
https://www.it-service24.ch/wp-content/cache/autoptimize/css/autoptimize..

… the .com-domain is then working properly, but the cdn drop zone urls (static.) at .at and .ch are not used.

Hello frank,

to directly answer your questions:

* is the CDN set only in WPML or also in AO and/ or in your page caching plugin?

The CDN ist set in AO and the page caching plugin (WP Super Cache).

In WPML the CDN is not set as far as I know. We’ve only tried to translate the autoptimize_cdn_url string through WPML.

* is your setup a real multi-site one (with separate settings screens for each)?

I’m not sure. All domains point to the same directory on the server. Sometimes there are separate setting screens, sometimes not.

The set up is in a way, that we can manage everything from .com. But if I log in to .at (for example) and then set the AO CDN url, it also changes at .com.

* does the fact that the CSS/ JS is served from .com on the .at and .ch break anything?

Yes. Our SEO. But nothing visual.

Hi @ampforwp team,

thanks a lot for your detailled reply. As written above, the fact about the ‘choice’ was mentioned by our lawyer – specialized on internet law.

There are many sources concerning the fact, that users have to have a choice due to GDPR.

See e.g.:

‘Consent must be freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous. In order to obtain freely given consent, it must be given on a voluntary basis. The element “free” implies a real choice by the data subject.’
(https://gdpr-info.eu/issues/consent/)

This is exactly the case, we are talking about. The user has to be able to chose, if he wants to visit a Google server or not. If not, it is forbidden to disadvantage him and not serve him with the requested information, because then the choice wouldn’t be voluntary – thus we have to forward him to the regular mobile Version without AMP technology – because it was his choice.

This ‘if / when’ structure is exactly what makes GDPR so complicated.
I’m really looking forward to seeing your update. We’ll then immediately switch to ampforwp with all pages, because this ‘choice thing’ is the key.

Best regards,
Mikey

@ampforwp

I’d really appreciate receiving your response.
Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi ampforwp team,

yes. Unfortunately, you are wrong.

For sure, we’re forced by law to configure gdpr compliance for the non-amp version as well – but there’s one big difference between handling gdpr for amp and non-amp:

The amp version is – by nature – hosted on Google (or generally spoken ‘external cache/cdn’) servers.

That’s exactly, what gdpr forces us to inform about BEFORE a user visits the amp page. If a user clicks ‘reject’ or ‘close’, he’s still able to visit the amp website and that’s simply logically wrong.

As we are forced by law to give users the choice if they want to visit a Google cache server or not, the only logical solution is to link the reject (as well as the close) button to the non-amp version.

So the users free will decides. That’s exactly what gdpr is about!

The key is to enable the choice for the users. This is exactly the problem, our lawyers informed us about and solving this would guide to the fact, that ampforwp will be really gdpr compliant – as the first plugin, as far as I know.

I’d really appreciate, if you could find a solution or realize a hook or s.th. like that – then all your EU customers will be able to fulfill this ‘users choice’-part of gdpr.

I’m really looking forward to hear from you!

Best regards
Mikey

And by the way: Is there an option to change the position of the buttons – I mean reject first and agree second? I’m using the first GDPR design from AMP for WP …

Same problem here. Great plugin, but it’s creating a kind of sitemap of all pages on the website – not only child pages of a page.

Any suggestions?

Greetings

If I upload the cforms2 plugin – in addition – in a folder /cforms/, the answer of this POST request is:

<b>Fatal error</b>: Call to undefined function plugin_dir_path() in <b>/***/wp-content/plugins/cforms/lib_ajax.php</b> on line <b>23</b>

The interesting thing is, that the above mentioned error still refers to /wp-content/plugins/cforms/lib_ajax.php – and NOT to /cforms2/.

This could be the solution …

update:

Perhaps, I hadn’t deleted the old /cforms/ folder before I received the message above.

Now, it’s deleted. I’ve also erased all former data and then installed a clean cforms2 plugin. After that, I imported a backup of all data and receive the following network error:

POST lib_ajax.php 404 Not Found

I’ve got the same issue after updating from 14.6 to current version. After deactivating Ajax, everything works fine. But that’s not the solution. ??

I receive an POST lib_ajax.php 301 Moved Permanently

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare get_cforms_entries() (previously declared in /****/wp-content/plugins/cforms2/lib_aux.php:387) in /****/wp-content/plugins/cforms/lib_aux.php on line 718

As the current version of the plugin is located at /cforms2/ and not at /cforms/ (which I deleted before!), this perhaps could guide you to the solution.

I really hope, you can fix this bug.

Sincerely,
Mike

I’m struggeling with the same issue for EN (main language) and ES (second language) constellation.

The main site in english languare is on root /, but the hreflang-tags refer to /en/ instead of /. Even if the URLs are being redirected, this causes hundreds of (not necessary) redirects and our page will drop on Google for no reason I guess.

Has anyone a solution for that?

Thank you very much in advance!

@ bgermann
Thanks a lot for the fix. It’s working excellent for me.

I found the solution in my first post. thanks a lot for this excellent plugin!!

YES! I found the solution!

Just had to replace in page.php:

<?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this page &raquo;</p>'); ?>

with:

<?php if (is_page(array('1','2'))) { ?>
<?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this page &raquo;</p>'); ?>
<?php } else { ?>
<?php
  $show= '[mwm-aal-display]';
  $content = $show . "" . get_the_content();
  echo apply_filters('the_content',$content);
?>
<?php } ?>
