This page explains the common functionality of the syndication tools and for stop words pro:
- The selection of posts and pages (similar to media tools)
- The execution: “Execute all” and “Execute Single”
- The statistics about the execution
The replacement, however is different for each syndication function.
Make the GUIWe have already a new designed GUI, similar to Media Tools. It is possible to choose the category, the type: posts, pages or books and the date range. The additional task is add a new button for replace external links. |

Syndication Tools AjaxWe use javascript combined with ajax for everything. The table generator, the appending of the buttons and the result / preview screens. Also for filling up the table. We also use javascript with ajax for chunking the results. All the GUI is powered by javascript and the backend requests are handled by ajax. |
|
Stop Words ProStop Words Pro is a plugin, which is taking care of URLs. We have stop words lists with most common english words, which we don’t need in the URLs. We also have “must have” words or Non-Stop Words lists. We also have full syncing process between the Master server (Syndication) where we store the master lists. And slaves (all blogs and snbchf), from where we can take tags as non stop words.

Make the chunk process
The “chunk process” is the loop through all posts, pages and books that got selected in the GUI.
There is an “inner loop” that goes through all posts and pages and find out, if we can replace an external with an internal link.
During this operation we load a selected chunk of items.
We prepare the real execution of the changing. After the first step, here we have the number of the internal links in this article, which can be replaced. This task is for the real execution of the prepared links.
Make the replace
The replacement process is different for each syndication tools.
Statistics
Then we have to check how much URLs are changed and to give back the stats to the GUI.
- The function writes x posts changed
- I see that the old values changed

Bugs
Make Excerpts Longer Fails for 700 posts with 500 Error Good that you commit for each row
|
Correction: It is fixed now. It was a memory issue in algo. Now must work fine. |
256 posts, Create External Link, 500 Error
|
: When the query is too big and time/resource consuming, the server hit us with error 500 and then stops the process. Now we change a little bit the logic and we use less resources than before. |
Why can MediaTools run without 500 error? Can we learn something?Media Tools has complexity of N: Goes through all post and images linked and imports them. We have a complexity of N*N, we go through all posts and for each post we have to search. Maybe N* N*N
|
problemMediaTools is ajax based and they made everything post by post. We can implement it, too. It is good idea.
Feedback: A bit a pity that we did not do it at the very beginning, because Media Tools was basis for Syndication Tools. |
Posts of last month are not shownActual Functionality: December posts are not shown in Result List Expected Functionality: Show also posts of December Did you pay attention for chunk building for this problem? Yes, it works fine |
