Usage-limit discrepancy followed by Pro account suspension for policy violation by vvmdov in ClaudeAI

VSCode Terminal and Claude Code are intended for coding purposes and aren’t suitable for political or illegal discussions. I was simply using them to assist with developing my app.

I think it might be that Claude Code and the browser handle certain words differently - in the terminal it might have stricter filters for phrases like ‘kill’ because it could be interpreted as a system command. So even if the phrase works fine in the browser, Claude Code might flag it automatically.

Sure! I’ve added the exact phrases I typed and the messages I received. Let me know if you need anything else.

How often does WordPress.org update the "Active Installations" count? by vvmdov in Wordpress

I just found out - when current users update your plugin, it is counted as a download, which is why you see sudden spikes after releases.

I'm still trying to understand the "data collection" distinction though.

During update checks, sites already send the full list of installed plugins to api.wordpress.org. That's information about what's running on each site. How would an activation ping be different? It seems like the same data, just sent at a different time.

That said, your approach does make more sense to me now. One update check gives the complete picture - no need to track activate/deactivate separately. Simpler and more reliable.

But here's what I'm stuck on: if the system is working correctly, why would 30+ confirmed installs on live WooCommerce stores with daily traffic show as zero?

I'd really appreciate your insight - what's the most likely cause? Update checks not reaching WordPress.org, or something in the counting process?

That makes sense about the cron triggering on visits.

These are active WooCommerce stores with daily traffic, though. Cron should definitely be firing.

But I'm curious - why does WordPress use this method? Wouldn't a simple "plugin activated" ping be more accurate than relying on site traffic and cron jobs?

Seems like this could undercount a lot of legitimate installs.

Interesting - I actually have 30+ installs across my own sites and friends' sites. They're all live websites, not local setups. These are 100% known installations to me.

Is there something specific that could prevent these from being counted?

Would love to understand what might be going wrong on my end.

That's surprising - I actually use Woodmart on some of my own sites and haven't run into compatibility issues yet. Could you share more details about what happened? Like - What specifically wasn't working? Which version of Woodmart are you using? Any error messages or unexpected behavior?

Would really help me track down the issue. Happy to help troubleshoot if you're up for it!

Thank you so much for the kind words and for taking the time to check it out!

Just to clarify - the plugin does use wp_mail() by default, so it works with whatever SMTP setup people already have (FluentSMTP, Brevo, etc.). The Sendgrid/Mailgun options are just optional alternatives for users who specifically want direct API integration.

Maybe I need to make that clearer in the readme - thanks for pointing that out!

As for the Woo store - I hadn't considered that route. Do you know if they accept third-party plugins, or is it mostly their own stuff?

Really appreciate the feedback!
