Yeah, that’s what I meant. The Symbiostock settings page says “Your memory_limit should be set to over 64, ideally over 200.”
I have it set at 256MB. Maybe worth giving it a shot?I’ve used the VisualComposer (a paid plugin) for masonry grid view. You can apply different effects (I used ‘lazy load’) and filters (I used product category) to it.
The downside is that it loads slowly when you show many images.Here’s an example on my site: http://picturebreeze.com/shop/recreation/ .
Have you checked the memory WP can use?
That’s correct. Symbiostock will create and provide that resized file after purchase.
You can set the particular image sizes when you edit/create your licenses (to be found at WP Admin -> Symbiostock -> Licenses).I have to admit I don’t understand the settings needed to make this work. At some point when I was experimenting, it started transmitting all images to one out of five agencies saved. I had to delete all agencies to stop this.
What I want is to select at ‘Media – Edit – Stock Agencies’ on a per image basis to which agency/agencies to submit. I don’t want an automatic upload of all new published images to all agencies.
Could you please provide a sample setting to achieve that?
No sorry, it’s not working. Not uploading to any FTP directory. I tried with 3 different ones. Waited a couple of hours but none of the FTP destinations received a file.
The down side is, being auto-generated you can’t really control too much what gets put in there. It seems from some of my indexed images in Google it has grabbed all sorts of data like price, tags etc. to fill the space. So a more foolproof method would be to put the image description into the Product Short Description field upon upload automatically, then use the %%excerpt_only%% variable which forces only the excerpt to be used.
Yes, you can. You can type whatever you want to into that meta data template. Text or variables. If you use the variable %%excerpt%% it will read out and publish whatever you have in the IPTC caption field which is automatically written into that WP text field. So basically, keep your IPTC data organized (I do it in Lightroom) and WP and Yoast will automatically do the rest for you.
However, and that’s one thing you can’t completely control, Google reserves the right to adjust search listings and replace text of meta titles and descriptions to whatever they seem fit in their own search results.
So don’t sweat the SEO thing too much. Make sure you have a good and relevant meta title and description (matching the actual text on your pages/posts and try to avoid repetitions. And add new content on a regular basis. Google will do the rest.
The YOAST plugin should rewrite the meta data right away.
For the meta data of static pages use Pages template.
For meta data of product pages use the second “Media” template.Be patient. New customers sales will come with more website visitors.
I use %%excerpt%% and it works.
Just want to confirm that one can actually hide a product (image or video) from his own Symzbiostock site but still have it listed at Symzio.com. Just use the ‘Catalog visibility’ option when editing the product and then publish/update.
PS: By root directory I meant the one your domain points to.
I use the Addhandler in .htaccess on most of my websites. No issues. Just place it in your root directory. If you’re German, you can also contact me in German privately if that’s easier for you (I’m German, too).
Awesome, congrats!
That’s a great opportunity. Thanks a lot.
