Eliminate possible Plugin Earth Hour

The Earth Hour (or Earth Hour, in English) was an initiative of WWF that was shut down on March 28 for 1 hour, from 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm, all lights, with the aim of raising awareness about the importance climate change and demonstrate that it is a problem that concerns us all. Here you can see some photos taken before and during global blackout.

Seizing the opportunity, kids Bravenewcode developed a plugin that symbolically extinguished the blog during that time. The idea was brilliant, but it did not work very well ... Many blogs are not extinguished, they did put out late or wrong.

In my case, due to the incompatibility of Earth Hour plugin with WP Super Cache Manager, the blog suffered since 28 March, an internal power outage in the area of feeds and subscriptions that has lasted until today.

Basically what happened is that the plugin WP Super Cache Manager "photographed" the web while symbolically off ", keeping that picture in to show to the next cache that request. This will avoid rebuilding the pages for each new user. These snapshots are stored for 30 days more than it takes Earth Hour. So, weeks after the plugin still appears but Earth Hour was off and even removed from the ftp.

The solution is quite simple: Clear the cache, disable WP Super Cache Manager and turn it back on.

Note: only 533 blogs installed this plugin, and 4 of those are mine ... Anyway, I hope that the few that you have had the same problem as me, I serve as the solution.
