Hi Guys,

I have recently purchased a pro version of tube press (2.4.3) and installed it on my new site for same gallery which I am using on my old site with tubepress older version. My question is, although everything was working fine yesterday, this morning I had this error on new site "YouTube determined that the request did not contain proper authentication." - This error took me by surprise, and was sticking until I opened an old site which was using old version of tubepress there it was displaying the same gallery fine. After that I refreshed the new site again, and it started working on the new site. This is frightening and that's why I wanted to confirm are the two sites using same galleries are connected some how? and why the new site wants me to first run the old site gallery? - Some kind of intermission/authentication that old site does and the new site using newest tubepress pro version doesn't.

Any help is this regard is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi,

The two galleries are not connected in any way other than that they both reference the same set of videos on YouTube. That particular error message means that YouTube is, on occasion, responding to TubePress with an HTTP 401 - Unauthorized. There's no reason I can think of that would cause this - it's probably just a hiccup on YouTube's side.

I would recommend, if you haven't already, enabling TubePress's API cache to "smooth out" these intermittent errors. In WordPress you can configure the cache from WP Admin > Settings > TubePress > Cache. You should be OK to decommission the old gallery entirely.

Give that a try and let us know how it works? Thanks!

Thanks Eric,

Any idea how can we enable cache in a standalone PHP ?

Could you send a link to your gallery so I could take a closer look? Feel free to PM me the address if you can't share it with the world. Thanks!

You can just use the "cacheEnabled" shortcode attribute. e.g.

<?php print TubePressPro::getHtmlForShortcode('cacheEnabled="true" mode="tag" tagValue="pittsburgh steelers" resultsPerPage="3"'); ?>

Thanks Eric,
Currently the site is working. It took some time but now it is, may be after I have taken the old site down (which was using old tubepress), the issue is resolved. Probably something to do with one gallery shared by multiple sites. Good news is, its now working, so that's what all that matters. If it will come back, I will post you back along with gallery just as you advised.

Thanks again
