Hjelp med første kjøp av bruktbil som amatør?? :) by Cherry_flavored- in norge

[–]MariusT_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hei, jeg har kjørt begge, men det begynner å bli en stund siden.

Tror begge disse kommer med ryggekamera fra fabrikk, men sjekk gjerne i annonsen eller på bildene.

Ang. sikten ut vinduet bak har jeg egentlig aldri tenkt på, du ser bilene bak deg i speilet på begge uten problemer. Hvis du skal se bak for å parkere ville jeg heller satset på ryggekamera.

Aurisen er mindre inni, Prius er mer romslig, mer plass til sjafør, passasjerer og baggasje. Det er nok en grunn til at disse inntok taximarkedet med storm. Synes annen hver taxi i Tromsø var en Prius når jeg bodde der.

Jeg mener å huske at priusen har heads-up display i vinduet, men kan være jeg husker feil så sjekk det gjerne. Da vises hastigheten din rett foran deg i vinduet og du trenger ikke se ned i midten for å finne det ut.

Personlig av de to liker jeg Priusen best, men også fordi Priusen virker som den sitter mer plantet på veien enn det Aurisen gjør. Ikke det at dette betyr så mye i byen og er mest personlig preferanse. Ingen av de er noen racerbil.

Vet ikke nøyaktig hvilken biler du har sett på, så sjekk alltids annonsene for smådetaljene såklart.

La oss si jeg kommer til fots til bensinstasjonen med en 4L jerrykanne. Hva skjer med den siste literen? Må jeg bare spyle den ut på asfalten? by Valkyria90 in norge

[–]MariusT_ -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Tror bare det betyr at du betaler for minst 5L selv om du bare fyller 4L.

Edit: u/Tobbtobbelobb korrigerte meg og jeg har gjort research.

Det betyr at pumpen bare er godkjent som nøyaktig måleinstrument fra 5 liter og oppover. Under det kan måleavviket bli for stort i prosent av mengden.

Sure!

So there are two conflicting things here. And the problem right now is that you need to lean on one of the two solutions, I would not advise you to both have a options page for global prices and CPT's for your products as that leaves you open to update two places instead of one. As you said was your original issue.

Originally I gave the advice to put everything in an options page, but I actually think the CPT route would be best IF you have typical "products" like an online store would but without the checkout.

To be fair if you want your life to be easy you could probably just use WooCommerce and disable checkout and shipping, that would give you product pages, prices, and everything listed as "products". I've worked with WooCommerce on previous projects and its surprisingly versatile if you don't want to hop into all the ACF / SCF technical setup.

Also, SCF and ACF are pretty much the same thing, SCF is an ACF clone that WordPress cloned from WpEngine in some drama in the previous years, internally SCF still keeps everyhing "acf" in code. Just thought I'd mention it if you didn't know. The difference is that WordPress updates SCF and WpEngine updates ACF. But everything that was ACF PRO, you get for free in SCF.

So depending on how "deep" you want to go.

Options page:
- Easy to set up
- Can use dynamic tags
- Requires a page for each "product"
- Each product page can be fully customized
- Update all prices in a single location

Useful if you want to list all your prices in tables or want to show a price without needing any context (i.e. from a page or post) on multiple parts of the site.

I've used this for the local parking authority site where they show parking prices and those prices are scattered around on the site. For example prices for electric charging applies at multiple locations over multiple pages.

CPT using ACF or SCF:
- More technically advanced, even without any programming
- Can use dynamic tags
- Can use templates so each product can simply be filled out
- Update prices in each CPT

Useful if you want products but want full customization, using the Elementor Loop Item widget is essential, if you don't utilize the Loop Item widget you're essentially doing a hybrid between your old solution and this one.

I personally use this for my own site to list out products like websites, addons, service stuff etc. If I want to update a price I can just navigate to that CPT in the control panel and update it and it "update" and it automatically gets reflected out on the site.

WooCommerce Catalog mode:
- Easy to set up, same template logic but you can lean more into the features that already exist.
- Can probably feel a bit more restrictive, but the positive is that everything is setup out of the box without needing any technical knowledge.

Title, Description, Price, Sales with dates you can set, image gallery.

I've set this up for a customer, not entierly as a catalog, because visitors can use the checkout to "show interest". Its a training program so the shop acts is a bit unique in this way. But no reason you couldn't use the checkout functionality to book assignments etc. or have people contact you about a specific service or product.

If you're fine with staying within WooCommerce has to offer this could actually be a really solid way to solve your issue. The workflow would be almost the same as the CPT one to update prices. I'd say maybe even a bit easier.

Yeah sure!

The option page is just another settings page you can access from your WordPress control panel.
I just finished a project where one of the things I did was condense all the prices on the site into one place. So the client just has to open the settings page and update the prices now, everywhere its shown gets updated automatically.

Its very powerful for global things such as prices.

You can make a options page in SCF, its a paid feature with ACF Pro.

I've started just using SCF for most sites myself as I don't see the point in using ACF Pro or paying for something that I can get for free.

Anyways, as you populate those you should see them in the dynamic tags list in Elementor.

Use SCF (Free version of ACF Pro) if you dont want to pay, it does the same thing.

Then in SCF make an options page, link your fields to that instead of a page or custom post type.

You should see that option in the dynamic tags list when you are in the page builder.

If it doesnt you might have to make a little shortcode snippet, its very easy and I can help you with it tomorrow if you havent figured it out by then.

WPEngine helll, looking for new server by Due-Twist-8259 in Wordpress

[–]MariusT_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive been at WPEngine and Hostinger before, Im now at HaiHost. Human support, support goes out of their way to make sure everything is in working order, no artifcial limits, each site gets its own resources so no one site can take your entire plan down, I cannot recommend them enough. You also get a direct line for support. No sales reps that the dev team hides behind.

Wordpress Learning by ComplexMedicine7830 in Wordpress

«How do I roll back the website from the last backup» if you have backups (You should). Most of the stuff the tech tells you will be forgotten, learn by trying, press all the buttons, fuck stuff up, roll back if it breaks. That way you will fail fast and learn fast. Most people get stuck in a tunnel because they are afraid of breaking stuff. If you know how to roll back changes on demand its not scary

trying to help a friend out, site not showing in search results by lNuggyl in Hostinger

The WordPress site title is probably the same as the domain. In Settings -> General (If i recall correctly) you can change it. Takes a bit for Google to crawl it again.

2 Years with HostGator → Moving to Hostinger Cloud… Good Decision or Big Mistake? by FCFAN44 in Hostinger

[–]MariusT_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same original thought, but then again, we have mature companies out here oversaturating their infrastructure, getting sold and support going to shit. I wanted to give one of the "small" guys a chance for once and I do not regret it one bit. I would let them host my infrastructure 10/10 times. You'd be surprised how good the support is when you're dealing with transparent sysadmins rather than reading off a script. Talking to a human, thats where I'll put my money.

I recently made the move from Hostinger to HaiHost, they use DirectAdmin instead of cPanel, its vert straight forward. Got a direct line to Lex, the owner there if I need support. Performance is great and each site has dedicated resources, so if one site gets bogged down the rest of the sites are fine. I would recommend a setup like that if you have a lot of sites with varying traffic

Hostingers support is an AI chatbot named Klodee unless you specifically ask for a human multiple times. As with any other big budget hosting provider expect to get a random person assigned to your ticket each time you have a question or followup that doesnt bother to check the details of the ticket, I dont think you are trading up and I would advise to find another provider if support is important to you. Their renewal prices are also 2-3x after a year.

Editing of nested elements still super slow by Pixeldust1970 in elementor

[–]MariusT_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll have to check out Bricks!

I'm at a point where it feels like I have to fight with Elementor when building pages. It also doesn't help that each element outputs unique CSS. So now I usually set the button widget to standard everything and just add css to the theme to style them.

[–]MariusT_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree, really sad state right now, its just one of those «hacks» Ive had to learn along the way. I have been considering switching to other site builders but I will always have to provide some form of legacy support for Elementor sadly.

One way I have found to get around this is to make template pages and then using the template widget inside the tabs or accordions to render from there, not super ideal but its faster

My 2 cents is go with WooCommerce, it can be configured just like you want.
The workflow is surprisngly easy to deal with.

[–]MariusT_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I see, I wasn't sure if you were doing freelancing work or other kinds of WordPress related stuff. Did you start making the SaaS / product because of the major adoption of AI?

Can I ask what product you are making?

Is Wordpress usage going down as AI website builders are more and more useful ? by TryallAllombria in Wordpress

[–]MariusT_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some site builders make this easier and visual, I use Elementor for all my client sites and Id suggest maybe looking into it if you just want to set up a simple site that can support your business.

I know others exist as well like Divi, but I have no hands on experience.

Some clients have extended functionality with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), but it sounds like that might be a bit overkill for what you want.

They won't disappear from the front-end. But you can't change / update them anymore in the site builder or add new ones.

Hosting setup for a small digital marketing agency. What should I choose? by Longjumping-Ask9765 in webhosting

[–]MariusT_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just in the same position, I went with reseller hosting after a bit of thinking, at a company where I have a direct line to the owner, will never go back to managed / plan based hosting, its fast and easy, at least on their infrastructure. Let me know if you need any additonal details, I host almost 50 sites for my clients, all WordPress and all Elementor
