[Question] Prestashop + Redsys payment gateway breaks Google Ads conversion tracking

​

Hi everyone,

I have a tracking problem with Prestashop and the Redsys payment gateway.

The issue is:

When a customer comes from a Google Ads campaign and completes the payment through Redsys, the order is correctly created in Prestashop and the payment is successfully processed.

However, Google Ads and sometimes GA4 do not register the conversion.

After investigating, it seems that Redsys does not always return the user to the proper Prestashop order confirmation page (order-confirmation), or the original tracking/session information is lost during the external payment process.

As a result:

Orders exist in Prestashop

Payments are successful

But Google Ads conversions are missing

GA4 attribution is sometimes lost or appears as Direct traffic

Current setup:

Prestashop

Redsys payment module

Google Ads

Google Analytics 4

Google Tag Manager

I suspect:

loss of GCLID/session attribution,

broken return URL flow,

or conversion tags depending only on thank-you page views.

Has anyone solved this properly?

Would you recommend:

server-side tracking,

enhanced conversions,

custom GTM events,

modifying Redsys return URLs,

or triggering conversions directly from backend order validation?

Any advice or proven setup would be greatly appreciated.

What is the best AI agent for updating blog content?

Hi everyone,

​I’m currently using n8n to automate the update process for thousands of blog articles. My workflow is as follows:

​I use DataForSEO to find missing related content and gaps.

​I use Claude 3.5 Sonnet (via API) to rewrite and improve the articles.

​The problem is the cost per article. Since Claude's pricing is quite high for this volume of content, the total expense is becoming difficult to sustain.

​Are there any more affordable alternatives that offer similar or better quality for long-form content editing? I’m looking for models or agents that integrate well with n8n and can maintain the same level of reasoning and writing quality as Sonnet but at a lower price point.

​Has anyone had success with specific fine-tuned models or other APIs for this kind of bulk SEO work?

I built a pet blog to 200k monthly visitors, then abandoned it for 3 years. Now I don't know whether to burn it down or fight for it.

Started in 2014, grew slowly, then the pandemic hit and it exploded. Real traffic, real income. Then came the Google updates. I told myself it was temporary — for about three years, while doing basically nothing. Classic avoidance.

Today: ~150 visits/day, zero income.

What I still have: DA44, 10+ years old domain, 1,300 human-written articles, vet-signed health content, a clear sub-niche I could double down on (pet nutrition).

I'm torn between two options:

Option A — Nuke and rebuild. Delete everything, start fresh with 30–50 deeply focused articles on pet nutrition only.

Option B — Rewrite and revive. Use AI to audit and rewrite the existing content properly — search intent, internal linking, the works.

Honest question: is this domain worth saving, or am I just emotionally attached to something I should let go?

For those who've recovered from a long neglect period — was it worth it? What would you do?

EDIT: I was wrong—I didn’t get 200,000 monthly visitors; I actually got 1,000,000 in 2020. It seems the algorithm updates took their toll, and I didn’t keep up with the website. Maybe it’s time to get started? Or to sell?

My experience with OpenClaw = I'd rather die

I tried OpenClaw on its latest version and it's impossible to do anything smoothly. Followed the community recommendation and used version 4.23, "supposedly" stable and fast. Hetzner 4vCPU / 8GB RAM. Kimi K2.5. The result: ridiculously slow and maddening.

Thought... let's try Claude Sonnet. Fast on the web, maybe fast in terminal too. The result: same *hit, different wrapper.

Clean install. 4 basic skills. Impossible to have a simple "hello" conversation without waiting 2-4 minutes or getting a timeout error. Doesn't matter the model, doesn't matter the config, doesn't matter hardcoding timeouts in the JSON... OpenClaw is garbage. In my opinion.

Why would I complicate my life with this when I can build equally powerful workflows with n8n in 20 minutes?

I really wish I hadn't wasted so many hours on this crap. If anyone has had a different experience I'd genuinely love to hear it, because I've tried everything and got absolutely nothing working.

Hi everyone,

​I’m reaching out to see if anyone else has encountered performance issues with OpenCloud. I’ve just done a clean install on a Ubuntu server, but the response times are making it almost unusable.

​My Setup:

​Specs: VPS with 4 vCPUs and 8 GB of RAM.

​OS: Clean Ubuntu installation.

​AI Agent: Claude 3.5 Sonnet (via API).

​The Problem:

When I access the terminal via SSH and run OpenCloud, it is incredibly slow.

​Simple prompts (like a basic "hello") can take up to 30 seconds to respond.

​Complex commands (installations, file searches, etc.) take several minutes or sometimes just hang indefinitely.

​The Weird Part:

I’ve been monitoring the VPS metrics, and neither the CPU nor the RAM are being saturated. The graphs show plenty of overhead. Also, the Claude API itself works perfectly fine and fast outside of this setup, so it doesn't seem to be an API latency issue.

​It feels ridiculous that such a promising system is performing this poorly under these conditions. Has anyone dealt with a similar bottleneck? Could it be a network configuration issue, a specific Docker overhead, or something within the OpenCloud agent logic?

​Any advice or troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated!

I've been running a dog niche blog since 2014 (1,300 articles, DA44) and I'm trying to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it.

The decline:

At peak, the site was getting over 2,000,000 monthly visits and generating €3,000+/month through AdSense. Three years ago it was still around 80,000/month. Today? Around 60 visits/day. AdSense is disabled because at this point it would just hurt UX for no real revenue.

What happened:

Looking at Search Console data, the main drop correlates with Google's core updates in early-mid 2025. It wasn't a sudden penalty — it was a slow, sustained decline that kept compounding. No manual actions, no toxic backlinks. All content is 100% original, written by hand (I did start using AI to assist with some rewrites a month ago, but the original content was all manual).

Part of the problem was me: I saw the site declining and didn't act fast enough. For about two years I barely touched it.

What I've already done:

- Switched to a custom lightweight theme (Neve base). Core Web Vitals are now clean — they weren't before.

- Started rebuilding breed guide articles (5-6/day), keeping URLs, updating publish dates, improving content quality.

My recovery plan:

After analyzing all ~1,000 indexed URLs in Search Console:

- ~600 articles have 0 clicks and position >50. I'm considering either deleting them or setting noindex. They're dead weight.

- ~100 articles are salvageable — some need a full rewrite, others just need better titles and meta descriptions (several have 20K+ impressions but CTR under 0.1%, which is a snippet problem not a content problem).

- 6 articles are still performing decently and I won't touch them.

My concern:

The next big core update is likely coming this summer. I want to be in a better position before it hits. Is mass noindex the right call, or am I risking making things worse?

Happy to share the url here if u need. Any advice appreciated — I'm committed to putting in the work to bring this back.

Thanks.

I’ve created a logo in PNG format and need to convert it into a high-quality SVG. I’ve tried some free online tools, but the ones that actually work aren’t really free and always require a premium plan.

Can you recommend any AI tools or websites that can convert PNG to SVG with good quality for free? Thanks.
