Performance Settings "load only used elements" causes error, fix manually?

Hi,

Thank you for using Enfold and sorry for the problems.

We had this mesage with Cookie Consent Message bar enabled and Special Heading not used in a page/post content. But this is fixed in 4.5.

Did you clear server cache after updating to 4.5?

Normally updating from versions < 4.4 we scan all pages and post content for theme shortcodes and store this info in a post meta we use to disable elements that are not used.

An "auto repair" can be forced by changing the version of the element builder and reloading a backend page:

enfold\config-templatebuilder\avia-template-builder\php\element-manager.class.php line 19:

const VERSION			= '1.0.1';

replace by (do not change the first 3 numbers as this might break our internal checking for versions)

const VERSION			= '1.0.1.1';

Could you give us a link to your page and admin access to the backend so we can check your settings? You can post it in private content.

Do you use theme shortcodes in sidebar widgets or footer that are not used in pages/posts content ?

Best regards,
Günter

Hi,

Thanks for the login credentials.

There seems to have been a problem in updating our postmeta values/option values for the shortcodes.

You can see this when you open a page for editing you find a button “show parser info” in “Enfold Shortcode Parser” metabox. Clicking this opens a new window with several tabs.

Shortcode Usage overview shows which shortcodes are used (Blog usage) and detailed shortcode usage shows the posts for each shortcode.

As you see in detailed shortcode usage, there is all 0.

I added a Testpage “Test page Enfold” with a 1/1 column and saved it. Click button “show parser info” and in the new window you see that this column is shown correctly in the overview. But writing this and rechecking (click button “show parser info” without doing anything on the testpage) a little later it was reset to 0.

I added a second column – updated the testpage and clicked “show parser info”. it was correctly showing 1 for each column – and after a few minutes I clicked “show parser info” – everything 0 again.

There must be something on your install that resets the entries we make to the options table for each shortcode. These all start with “av_alb_usage_”.

Selecting “Alway load all elements” will fix this problem.

To find out which plugin causes the problem (probably a caching plugin) you would have to deactivate all plugins first.
Then as described above modify the version number (1.0.1.1, 1.0.1.2, 1.0.1.3, ……),

– reload a backend page (forces the update), open a page, click “show parser info” and check. Modify page by adding a shortcode and check again.
– activate one plugin after the other, increment the version number and check with the above procedure.

Best regards,
Günter

Hi Lars,

Sorry for the late reply and your feedback.

Strange – I have bbPress and WooCommerce running on my dev server and do not have the problem.

Did you try it with bbPress alone? I think it must be a combination of bbPress with another plugin – might be a caching plugin.

Can you check the php error log? You might need to set WP debug mode in wp-config.php (https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress).
