Post install 5sec tutorial

5sec Validator requires WordPress v3.2.

B) Usage - top

List of URLs will show all your posts, pages, custom post types and taxonomy archive pages. Select the URLs you want to validate and click "validate". You can also use the search function to filter URLs. If you have hundreds of pages - don't worry. Nothing bad will happen, it'll just take longer for the validation to finish. It takes about 4 seconds per URL to validate.

Once validation is done you'll immediately see the number of errors and warnings separately for HTML and CSS. additionally there's a "details" button available. Clicking it will give you a detailed report. Click the "zoom" icon next to each error to get detailed info.

Validation results are cached so once you do the validation they'll be available without running it again. If you get an error response for some pages it means that the W3C validator can't access them or the W3C service is temporary not available.

D) FAQ - top

Will it work with my plugins?

Yes! 5sec Validator works with all plugins.

Will this plugin slow my site down?

No. Validator has absolutely no affect on the site speed.

Will it change/fix my pages?

No! Validator is a read-only plugin. It wont make any changes.

How many URL can I validate?

As far as the plugin goes there are no limitations. There are however limits imposed by the W3C service server but they are very high.

I'm getting "bad response from W3C" message

If your server is very slow it might take more than 30 seconds (which is the default timeout) to validate each page. Timeout can be increased by opening "5sec-validator.php" and by editing the "WF_VALIDATOR_HTTP_REQUEST_TIMEOUT" constant on line #18.

I'm still getting the "bad response from W3C" message

The page you're testing is probably not accessible or W3C service is temporarily down.
