AdRotate Pro 5.24 improves a number of inefficient queries for stats. These have been updated and now work much faster. During testing on my tiny test site these queries are now at least twice as fast. While figuring that out I also found a few typos and quirks in other queries. Those have been fixed as well.
This of-course comes with a few changes to the database as well, adding a new index. Removing another one. You’ll be prompted for that through an dashboard notification.
Please report suggestions and issues
If you see something isn’t right with the plugin, even stupid things like typo’s. Please report them. AdRotate Pro users can use the ticket system for that. The primary contact form is available through your dashboard, but you can also use the contact form on my website.
Without your reports, suggestions or insights I can’t improve the plugin. So please send in your suggestions and report issues, bugs and quirks as soon as possible. Providing some insights on why software doesn’t work for you is very important for developers to improve their products.
