Biggest opportunity: Swap “feed” for “mihdan”. “feed” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mihdan” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

At least 1K of 41K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Content & Feeds plugin keeps 0.8%, across 868 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Content & Feeds plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

    1 . Does not work correctly with Jetpack Boost. Unable to create all critical CSS files: “Failed to automatically create 1 file. Visit the advanced recommendations page to optimize this file.” The file at the same time: //my_site.com/turbo/ya/?donotcachepage=d338734ed27 .. I’m waiting-waiting for the fix to come out, there is no fix. Don’t know about this problem? I came to tell you. 2. Source for Ya.Turbo is formed incorrectly. I have to cut it through ?.* <div class="sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled"><div class="robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing"><h3 class="sd-title">Share this:</h3><div class="sd-content">?.* But at least it is a solution. For the first item, I did not find how to fix it. This topic was modified 2 years, 9 months ago by arny99. This topic was modified 2 years, 9 months ago by arny99.

    My apologies, I don’t speak Russian! I just wanted to say that there are people around the world that use Yandex (especially because most of its sites has very decent English translations), so, naturally enough, I’m testing most of the Yandex features; Turbo was next on my list. Other plugins seem to have Russian as the only option, which makes it harder for a non-Russian speaker to install and configure. Mihdan: Yandex Turbo Feed, however, is mostly translated to English as well (with some exceptions). Installation is simple enough, you get a new option on the WordPress sidebar, where you can ‘Add Feeds’ or view feeds. This is a nice touch: I was expecting just one feed! This allows you to configure and experiment with several alternatives — saving them all — and then let Yandex pick the one you like best. Each feed has several options to include in the RSS — besides the additional Yandex Turbo markup — which means you can have feeds just for comments, or posts with comments, posts with images, and so forth. It has a very reasonable amount of configuration options, but — and that’s also a plus! — it has good enough defaults if you feel overwhelmed with all the options (I was!). After you create a feed, you get a new URL for it — usually something like https://your-website-address.tld/turbo/your-feed-name — which you can copy & paste to the Yandex Turbo RSS validator. After half a minute or so, you should have a green message saying ‘No errors’, and your Turbo RSS feed should be operational. Of course, Yandex now needs to load all pages mentioned on the feed and start converting them to the Turbo version, which Yandex claims to take around 2 hours or so. Also note that Yandex will not create a Turbo page for all your pages; as far as I can understand, even though it might process your Turbo-enhanced RSS, only those pages worth keeping will be ‘turbified’ — and that is done according to the ranking of each page in your site, and if they have been previously selected by Yandex to be worth keeping. All-in-all, this is a very reasonable plugin that does what it claims to do and does it well. I just await the completion of the full English translation 😄 This topic was modified 5 years, 1 month ago by Jan Dembowski.

    Установила плагин на один сайт, все норм, но яндекс не принял файл RSS? так как с ошибками. Второй сайт: яндекс принял rss без ошибок. Но то, что случилось с хостингом – неописуемо. Сайт довольно большой, около 10 тыс. страниц. В итоге сначала проц загрузился до 150% mysql процессом, сначала около 6 часов думала на ddos атаку, через несколько часов перешла на более высокий тариф, чтобы еле зайти на сайты, но нагрузка не падала, только к вечеру подумала, что может стоит отключить плагин (никак не думала на плагин). Всего то RSS? У меня не было такого ни разу. И о чудо “типа ddos атака” (так предположила техподдержка) прекратилась, показатели нормализовались. Ну его этот плагин… Никогда не пишу плохие отзывы, но тут, сорри … Если бы был просто баг, то пофиг – бывает, а вот такое …

    Поставил плагин, активировал. Создал канал, в вебмастере все показало хорошо, а когда проиндексировалась лента, то весь сайт слетел на главную страницу. По любой ссылке из поиска открывалась описание статьи и без возможности перехода на всю. Потерял трафик. Не рекомендую.
