Mixed Mode Alert

Description

If you are using one of the LinksAlpha provided plugins(Network Publisher or 1-Click or Social Discussions) for WordPress, you might come across error message with title - "Network Publisher - Mixed Mode Alert". 

You will get this alert if you have configured Publishing using both, the plugin and Publication Manager on LinksAlpha.com for the same website. To provide little mode detail about this, when you configure Publishing using one of the plugins mentioned above, the Publish Method is set to "Direct", and when you configure Publishing using the Publication Manager on LinksAlpha.com, the Publish Method is set to "RSS Feed". 

For any websites hosted using WordPress.org software, LinksAlpha recommends use of one of the provided plugins due to better performance. Hence, if LinksAlpha detects that publications for your WordPress.org website are configured using both "Direct" and "RSS Feed", we alert you about that. 


Solution

Best way to resolve this issue and make this alert go away is to switch to using the plugin for publishing content to all Networks related to a particular WordPress.org website. And to do that, you need to make sure that Publish Method is set to "Direct". Publish Method help page lists steps on how you can switch from "RSS Feed" to "Direct" as your publishing method.
