Changelog
Changelog. All changes or improvements to the blog will be recorded in this file. List of recommended tools.
15/06/2024- The forum is discontinued. After two and a half months, for every legitimate registered user (5) there were more than 200 spam attempts.
09/06/2024Los motivos son principalmente tres:
- Although Rank Math is very complete and is not one of the heaviest plugins, it is still fattened, The Seo Framework is much lighter, focuses on the basic functions and there is a noticeable improvement in performance. The DB weight has been reduced from 623Mb to 530Mb.
- Rank Math PRO has raised its minimum price from $59 to$95.88. That's an increase of $36.88 all at once. A final price almost close to the average cost of hosting. In their defence I have to say that when I told them the reasons for the cancellation they offered me to keep the price of the last three years with a refund of the difference.
- Although the new options they added recently were reasonable, they are still committed to embedding stories based on paid IA to generate content and other rather dispensable functions. I have yet to explain all this in more detail in a note.
31/05/2024- The subscription for ad-free surfing is withdrawn. Hardly anyone is interested. I do not rule out upgrading a possible subscription in the future with another approach.
06/04/2024 It adds the possibility of subscription to browse without advertising for €0.50 per month with an annual payment of €6. To do this, use the plugin Simple Membership and with Ad Inserter configure the exceptions to not show any ads to subscribers.
30/03/2024 Simple Ajax Chat Pro (SAC Pro), which was in testing since 30/11/2022 because almost nobody was using it anymore, is withdrawn. See review.
11/03/2024 - (Ongoing)- Tabbed redesign of all (1), (2), (3) and (4) from the list "Humor en apuros" to add images. Case summaries are corrected, shortened and improved. Flags used in the tabs are courtesy of banderas-mundo.es (Tnx!).
27/01/2024- Added language Arabic (ar) Fus'ha (اللغة العربية الفصحى), also known as Modern Standard Arabic (MSA): the written version of Arabic used in all official communications of governments, organisations and academic institutions, literature, the legal sector and the media.
21/11/202325/07/2023- Added language Dutch (nl_NL)
09/05/202306/05/202305/05/202328/04/2023- Test. Added Microsoft Clarity service that provides heat maps and session recording for the purpose of studying and improving usability. View review.
26/04/2023- Subscription pop-up window made with Ad Inserter and a GenerateBlocks block that is displayed when the visitor has reached 80% of a post and is no longer displayed after closing it. This window is only active for ten alternate days each month. + Info.
18/04/202315/04/2023- I redesigned this Changelog page to indicate the categories by coloured labels.
02/04/202322-03-2023- The language Swedish (sv_SE) is added.
10-02-2023- Language Korean (ko_KR) is added.
31-01-2023- The Czech (cs_CZ) and the Greek (el) language are added.
02-12-202230-11-202214-11-2022- Various modifications for the review of the request for publication in the Entertainment/Opinion section in Google News on Android, iOS and news.google.com. Updated and published on 17/11.
28/10/202226/10/2022- Continuing with the plan to replace plugins with lightweight code-only alternatives to minimise load times, today sees the uninstall of Kadence Blocks. The accordions (alternative), tabs (alternative) and contact form (alternative), (here other with PHP, CSS, JS and Ajax) are added without using plugins.
11-01-2023. Accordions and tabs will soon be included natively as two new blocks in GenerateBlocks 1.7 and GenerateBlocks Pro 1.5 released on 21 February 2023. More information.
The only thing I have not managed to replicate without plugin have been the tables of contents (which will arrive sooner or later as a native block for WordPress) (Alternative temporary), I have been defeated by different errors. So, for the moment, I'm using the Simple TOC plugin, the lightest one I know, until I can debug the bugs.
22/10/2022- The Sriptless Social Sharing plugin is dispensed with. Although it is very lightweight and does not use Javascript, it is improved by replacing it with pure HTML, CSS and PHP code with SVG Inline code to create the sharing buttons. Zero additional requests, less code, lighter and faster. View code (Only for GeneratePress Premium template)
16-08-202230/07/2022- Testing. Creation of subscription area for members with plans for ad-free browsing and access to extra content with Ultimate Membership Pro purchased on Envato.Uninstalled on 22 November 2022. Analysis.
01/07/2022- The plugin WP Show Post which was responsible for displaying related posts has been removed. Now GenerateBlocks, from its version 1.5.0, includes the new Query Loops block that allows to show related posts in several ways (random, by category or tags) although for the moment (until it is integrated in its FREE and/or PRO version) you have to add a function code. View details and code.
30-06-202222/16/202227-05-202229-04-2022- The language German (de_DE) is added.
01-04-2022- Tests. Added button at the bottom of the posts for notification of spelling errors, bugs or broken links. The button opens a Kadence form and the popup window is made with the Modal Guten Block plugin, which only consumes 11.9 KB.
23-03-202218/03/2022- Significant performance improvement. LucusHost expands its plans with more storage space, RAM and CPU. From 20 to 30Gb of space and to have 2560 MB of RAM and 175% of CPU (1.75 vCore).
09/03/2022- The QUIC.Cloud CDN is activated temporarily to compare possible performance improvements. More info.
04/03/202223-02-2022- Added Russian and Chinese languages, converted tables to InnoDB and changed the encoding to UTF8mb4_unicode_ci to fix problems with Cyrillic and Noto Sans font.
13/02/2022- It dispenses with Feedzy RSS Feeds, in both versions, free and Pro. It is difficult to optimise the pages where it is used and I have not achieved a reasonable cache. Even reducing the size of the thumbnail and the number of feeds to be displayed to a minimum, the response is not quite optimal. Even so, it is still one of the best options for displaying feeds.
08/02/202219/01/2022- Change in social buttons to lighten load using Scriptless Social Sharing. More info.
29-10-2021- Review and improvement of HTTP security headers. Test..

30-08-2021- Added function snippet that shows under the article title the estimated reading time in minutes calculated from a default value of 200 words per minute. More info.
10/08/2021- Optimisation. Removed the pages added in May that showed the posts and comments most voted by periods to lighten the loading speed. Tested plugin: WPUlikePro Personal.
