Time for a new theme

Posted by Andy Bailey on March 8th, 2010 0 Comments Topics: News, Site Updates   Tags: , ,

I’ve been wanting to rewrite the URL registration pages for a while as well as putting the most used links and tools on the front page. I tried to just change the css for the daily visit list but like most things geeky I do, it turned into a mammoth project.
I do my [...]

Since Feedburner was taken over by Google, their server urls have changed and the way they react to certain feed readers and it’s been next to impossible to get answers out of their support group. At first their preferred format was feeds2.feedburner and the old url stopped forwarding properly for my API so I added [...]

Settling in some new RAM and API code

Posted by Andy Bailey on February 26th, 2010 8 Comments Topics: Dev, News, Site Updates   Tags: ,

This server is getting busier and busier every week. It’s got so busy that I’ve had to move the most popular themes offsite to Amazon S3 and put in another 2 GB of RAM on the server.

I haven’t been able to much else lately because right after the major PC crash that happened, it happened [...]

There were a couple of columns missing in some of the affiliate report pages, they have been added now. All the data was still being collected, it just didn’t have anywhere to display.

Two more affiliates have received a credit to their account for introducing the most new members or generating the most unique clicks [...]

Anti Splog now active

Posted by Andy Bailey on February 4th, 2010 9 Comments Topics: Dev, News, Site Updates   Tags: , , ,

Beware the sploggers and fillers of blogs with crapola! I have just installed the brand new anti splog plugin from premium.wpmudev.org. Now, if a new blog is made and it’s made by someone who has made confirmed splogs before or other dark criteria, it’ll get spammed and the only way for it to be despammed [...]

Since I started this whole commentluv thing, the site has processed millions of comments, signed up thousands of new users and used terrabytes of bandwidth.
The site is getting busy! and it wouldn’t be able to do any of this without the aid of some pretty fancy plugins provided by http://Premium.wpmudev.org. Here’s a few I use [...]

The credits system was introduced to take care of administrating and controlling of the premium add ons and features that can be put on ComLuv blogs. The plugin is provided by the guys at Premium WPMU (you can download it here) and it’s been modified to integrate with the affiliate plugin (download that here) so [...]

CommentLuv API updates.

The traffic to the API on this server has increased by 60% this year and is growing at an exceptional (nearly exponential) rate. Each new blog means at least 5 more requests to deal with every day. With thousands of new members each month, it’s starting to get pretty hard for my entry level 2gb [...]

Feeding time at the spammer zoo

Posted by Andy Bailey on January 21st, 2010 12 Comments Topics: News, Site Updates   Tags: , , ,

Every time a comment is made on any CommentLuv enabled site (over 100,000 at last count) means the ComLuv server has to do the checking, searching, fetching and sending back of a feed for every request. With normal comments from normal people, it handles everything just fine and processes over a million comments a month, [...]
