I love beta testing and bug hunting, so after a year (or even more) of inactivity, I am ready to try again 🙂
http://ajotte.com
http://symbiostock.info

[ajtParticipant]

This site was excluded automatically about a month ago, because symbiostock.info could not load files symbiocard.csv and symbiostock_image_info.csv.
When search engine tries to load these files, gets response “406 Not Acceptable” and both files contain this text returned by server:
“
< !DOCTYPE html>

406

Not Acceptable

This request is not acceptable

“

I think that it has to be something odd with server configuration…

[ajtParticipant]

Added! 🙂

[ajtParticipant]

Great news!
I’m around too 🙂

[ajtParticipant]

Done!
And welcome 🙂

I had this error too. Network sites data were stored in database as serialized variables. All of them looked ok, but some were recognized as corrupted. Maybe they were stored by different php version(?). This error was visible on site after Symbiostock->Network->Update Symbiocards.
In my case helped removing all network partners and adding them again.

re the 4-7 sec to search a site — that’s a LOT of time! –if the search looks at 10 sites before displaying any results, that’s 40-70 sec of delay!

All 10 sites are searched simultaneously. If option “Random Order” is on, results are shown in order they arrive. If this option is off, site waits for results from all network sites (but no longer than 5s), then displays local results, network results and uses ajax to fetch again missing results, if any. You can test it in my site. I have the latest version of theme without any modifications.

ajt – has anything changed recently in the way searches are done? is the search looking at indexed keywords? or at all text in an image record?

I don’t know anything about changes, but I don’t think, that it could be the reason. It was tested above, that after few seconds site has xml files with network results ready to display. But for preparing and displaying results your sites need too much time. Why? …

[ajtParticipant]

This tells us, that connection speed between your server and other sites is ok. There must be different reason of slowness…

Another test 🙂

In root directory there is folder “symbiostock_xml_cache”. There should be about 60000 files inside, Delete all of them, but don’t remove folder.
Then add one or two sites to your network and see response.
Number of files in folder should not be a problem, my site has 60000 (this is default max number), sy.info has over 200000 now, but let’s try 🙂

[ajtParticipant]

Could you try this?

Create a file named search_test.php (or similar) with this code:

<?php

echo file_get_contents("http://ajotte.com/?s=white&post_type=image&symbiostock_network_search=1");

?>

then upload it to root folder of your server.
Then call it from your browser

http://picturebreeze.com/search_test.php

Then repeat this test for other symbio sites, changing ajotte.com to other addresses

Typically it should take no more that 4-7 seconds to show results (XML data).

Found it!

It was in my translation of the site. If you use Å, Ä or Ö in the change page text (Previous & Next) it messes up. I wanted to use “Föregående” and “Nästa” and they both includes special characters. So i solved it by just replace it with “<<>>” so my swedish customers will understand.[/b][/color]

Some time ago I made a fix, but it isn’t yet in theme. It was for German and Portuguese versions (for Lucato), but with Swedish should work too 🙂

If you want to use “Föregående” and “Nästa”, edit file inc / classes / network-manager / communicator.php:

Line 258 in communicator.php is:

$symbiostock_xml->createElement( “page”,htmlentities($page) ) );

change it to

$symbiostock_xml->createElement( “page”,htmlspecialchars($page) ) );

Ron, in file css/styles.css there is

ul{
list-style: none;
}

maybe try to remove it.

You can execute SQL command to modify database. You can do it in phpmyadmin (see Bluehost instructions how to access it).
Or you can install plugin for WordPress, for example SQL Executioner.
If you want to change large price of all images, use this command:

UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value="20.00" WHERE meta_key="price_large"

and similar commands for all other sizes.

WARNING: database can be easily damaged, so be very careful and don’t try this unless you are sure what you are doing…

[ajtParticipant]

Yes, I think that time limit is the reason in both cases…

[ajtParticipant]

🙂

What is max_execution_time in your php settings? Sometimes default value is only 30s. Try to increase it in php.ini or in control panel of your server.

If you have Cart Manager installed, deactivate it. This should restore pagination here:

Also try this link:
http://www.vectorjourney.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_status=draft?post_type=image
and go to “Screen options”. Maybe you have too big number in “Symbiostock Images”.
