One of the best plugin the W3 Total Cache plugin couldn't be activated on my site.
When I activate that plugin it shows messages like this
“This plugin is not allowed on our system due to performance, security, or compatibility concerns. Please contact our support with any questions.”
How can I activate this plugin?
If you are using godaddy then here are some information of godaddy.
Lack of Godaddy
1) It is shared. I read (though I can't confirm) that GoDaddy sometimes runs 17,000 websites on one server. My experience was that my website's ping time was about 2 seconds for the first 90 days. After 90 days, I was lucky if I saw ping times under 5 seconds. GoDaddy's money back policy, coincidentally, runs out after 90 days. The lesson here is that neither W3 Total Cache nor any other plugin will help you if it takes 5 seconds for the server to even respond.
2) GoDaddy limits the number of visitors to your Managed WordPress site. So after you reach your limit (which is way too low for any type of ecommerce site), GoDaddy just shuts your site down until the end of the month. Granted they may not have actually shut my site down. It could be that the response time was so long that my browser timed out. Anyway, it was still unacceptable. When you call GoDaddy's Tech Support, they try to sell you one of their high-end hosting packages.
3) GoDaddy disables the normal WordPress Cron Jobs. So, if you have a plugin that needs Cron in order to function, it won't. Also, normal WordPress functions that rely on Cron Jobs (such as garbage collection), don't work until GoDaddy allows it--which might be two weeks down the road.
4) GoDaddy's Managed WordPress doesn't work well with WooCommerce (the most popular ecommerce plugin for WordPress). For instance, when a customer wanted to remove an item from her shopping cart (on my website), it wouldn't go away. As soon as she browsed back to the shop page, the shopping cart would show the item in the cart again. WooCommerce Tech Support told me I had to change hosting providers if I wanted to correct the error.
You could fix this issue with switch to other hosing service.

I installed a Wordpress blog on Google Cloud through their MarketPlace over a year ago. It was free/covered by Google's $300 credit. A month ago I had about $100 credit left but didn't realize the credit was only good for one year and then they would charge. Unfortunately, I had a different credit card on file that was not valid at the time they started charging and because I didn't check my website for a few weeks, I came back and found it was down. When I corrected the billing issue I saw I had to restart the Virtual Machine. I saw that the SSD disk still had had installed "bitnami-wordpress-5-4-1-0-linux-debian-9-x86-6" and when I go to the website apmwellness.com it shows the "Apache2 Debian Default Page" and my static IP address is still saved. I tried to access the website directly through the static IP "34.75.174.18" and still get the same Apache2 page. A Google support person (from sales, not tech) mentioned that when they shut down they delete storage, but how come the SSD still shows bitname wordpress? Do I need to install Wordpress over again and create the website from the backup I fortunately saved or is their a way to recover it without doing that? I'm still waiting for their tech team to get back to me. Thanks!
I had a good active site about an two year ago, I was running that site actively, I wrote more than 300 articles on that site and was getting 1k+ traffic daily. Last year, I was too busy with study and other stuff, I totally forgot about site and even didn't renewed the domain and hosting. My hosting account got locked since I wasn't paying the bills. This year I am free and started working online, I have renewed my hosting and activated my domain. I asked 1and1 customer support to give me backup of everything I had on the site, they say 'there are no longer available backups on the server for the deleted contract'. I badly need all of those contents I wrote on that site. The site was created with WordPress and I used Cloudflare CDN, I haven't any backup of the site on my computer.
I am wondering, is there any way to get backup of my site from anywhere?
I would assume your only hope is to try and find your site on the Wayback Machine. The Wayback Machine is an amazing resource that has been archiving the broader internet since the late 90's. Its not a perfect copy but for static sites like blogs with enough traffic to have been noticed by the web spider that archives it can work rather well. It's also a cool nostalgic trip down memory lane :)
For one of my sites, i use WP Super Cache along with WP Mobilizer to serve the mobile theme for mobile/smartphone visitors.
What is happening, from time to time, the desktop version shows the mobile site and mobile site shows the desktop version.
This is frustrating when a mobile visitor is unable to see a mobile optimized theme.
For the record, W3 Total Cache does not work on my box and i switched over to Super Cache after my dedicated server crashed on a default install of total cache. Even before it could be configured, load spiked so much that the server kept running out of memory.
back to the issue, i posted a support ticket on both the plugins #wordpress, but not a single response. I emailed the authors offering to pay them for their time but still nothing.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Does the site work after removing the Super Cache plugin? I guess the issue is when a visitor on same IP visits your website from different devices the previous version of the site is loaded. I suggest not to use WP Super Cache as it is outdated and many problems are reported after updating WP, you should move to some other cache plugin like http://wordpress.org/plugins/quick-cache/
I was using self-hosted wordpress for a while and now I want to move all posts, settings to my wordpress.com account. I mean I want create free wordpress hosted account and move all data from self-hosted account into it. Is that possible? if yes, how? please explain
Although this isn't the usual direction to move, WordPress has documented it here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/
Megatron, I've seen a few of your posts about this hack. Its an up-to-date Wordpress install with very few plugins. By the sounds of things (and I may well be wrong here), I doubt you have done a huge amount of customisation yourself which could have introduced a vulnerability.
It could well be your theme but frankly my money is on your hosts themselves. Wordpress is so prolific that when a hosting company running many shared servers gets hacked there are inevitably loads of Wordpress sites that get compromised as a result and Wordpress gets the blame. The hosting company certainly don't own up to it.
Before you go to .com, switch hosts. Clean install, plenty of guides out there on resurrecting a Wordpress site - you've said yourself on other threads the site is only a week old so it'll be very easy to do. My 2p.
My client has 1000 WordPress blogs hosted on a server for customers. Each one is in its own domain through cpanel and SuPHP, running in CGI mode on Apache2.2. Now he wants me (I'm the PHP programmer) to get WP-Cache loaded out on each of these blogs and not just activated, but enabled. He also wants the timeout value set to 2 days instead of the default setting.
I have root on LAMP.
What is the preferred way to roll out an update to each blog such that on a page view, it sees if WP-Cache is enabled or not. If not, it needs to copy it out from a central source, activate it, and then enable it along with the different timeout value being used.
A way, maybe not the best way, is to write a script to copy the wp-cache plugin to every wp-content/pulugins folder. Then run another script that will go and modify every DB entry for it enabling it.
If not done correctly this can be devastating as it hits customer db's.
However, one thing to note is wp-cache has a history of killing other plugins. So, if you go in and add this plugin to everyone's wordpress it might hurt there experience if it hurts another plugin they have installed thus increasing support costs as people might be emailing trying to figure out what broke.
I take it this is being done to work on performance issues. Is it possible to maybe do some type of server caching outside of wordpress?
edit: after reading Joes comment I concur with him. Didn't even cross my mind.
