    Hi Graham,
    The Essential grid plugin is not allowing our post meta to be save. I disabled it and it started working.

    Most probably the plugin is tainting our data( or I am not sure, is it also using cmb2 and may be causing some conflict)

    About the plugins:- The number of plugins won’t be an issue from speed point of view(It depends on how much resource intensive they are) but it is surely problematic while doing updates and all.

    I will suggest using a plugin like WP Staging to create/test updates before committing on the site. Also, using a plugin like VersionPress can help you troubleshoot much better in the long term.

    Hi Daniel,
    I will suggest taking a backup of the database and /wp-content/plugins directory before upgrading. That will allow you to restore.

    I will also suggest using a plugin like this
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-staging/

    and create a staging site, test the updates there and when everything works properly, You may upgrade the actual site.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Graham,
    We do have a working version of it and I will push it on github. We wanted flexibility and a lot more options than what RT Media’s addon provides.

    We used camanjs which works wonderfully for smaller images but when the images get large, this simply does not work. We had to cancel the release at the last minute due to this.

    I am releasing this camanjs based version on github(It is working with a lot of effects but only on images 1-2 mb or less).

    We have restarted working on what the other plugins provide. The alternative using PHP ImageMagick will be available in 7-15 days. I am not happy with this approach as it has very limited effects but then again, It is to make sure we do have equivalent features to the other media plugin.

    I will keep you informed.

    Hi Graham,
    I have checked it on your site. I see that the saving the settings are not working. It is not saving at all.

    Since you have got more than 50 plugin there, I am going to try on a local multisite install before troubleshooting there.

    I will be posting back in 1-2 hours.

    Thank you
    Brajesh

    Thank you.

    Please do upgrade and test.

    You can setup automatic upgrade by installing BuddyDev Dashboard plugin

    https://buddydev.com/plugins/buddydev-dashboard/

    Here is how to configure it.
    https://buddydev.com/docs/buddydev-dashboard/installing-configuring-buddydev-dashboard/

    Please give a try after upgrading and let me know if the visibility issue is fixed(We had a bug related to visibility fixed a few release ago).

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Darren,
    The micro service based approach is taking too much time. I grossly underestimated it.

    I am changing the strategy and putting a local ffmpeg based solution(the ffmpeg needs to be on the same server) by this Wednesday.

    Will work again on the microservice when I get enough free time.

    Thank you
    Brajesh
