13. Live Update

(!! Temporarily disabled !!)
This WP AMP plugin uses the AMP Live List feature and checks every 16 seconds to see if a newer version exists on the server of the AMP site (for example, the Google Search server). If so, the user will be shown a hint button directly when reading the AMP page, informing the user that an update of the page is currently available. In this way, the user is actively informed of innovations, WITHOUT the user having to reload the AMP page! Thus, e.g. Live tickers or live blogs.

14. IVW Counter for the reach of your site / IVW SZM-Tag

If present, the Accelerated-Mobile-Pages (AMP) plugin recognizes the IVW offer identifier and IVW code from the IVW SZM tag of the website and adds these IVW settings to the AMP page! This will also add the IVW range of the AMP pages to their own online reach. In order for the IVW measurement to work correctly, the line “* .amp-cloud.de” (without quotation marks) must be added to the own locallist in the INFOnline account.

15. AMP Menu

If your Website uses the nav-Tag to render the navigation-bar the AMP Plugin will also generate a navigationbar for your AMP-Version, based on your nav-Tag-Section.

Is your website indexed at the Google-AMP-Cache?

The faster pageload of AMP is generated by saving the AMP-Site onto the Google-Servers, which Google will do at itself. How much time this will take is different by each website and is based on the Google-Algorithms. To check, if is your site actually in the Google-AMP-Cache, you can test it with the following free online-tool:

This has the particular advantage that the AMP plugin can also automatically provide all AMP pages under an HTTPS connection, even if the plugin user himself does not have an SSL certificate for his website. According to Google’s latest AMP recommendations, from a usability point of view, AMP pages should be better served under the actual domain’s own domain so that users are not irritated by a foreign domain. With the new version “easy AMP Version 1.4” the AMP plugin is now optimized and provides the AMP pages directly under the own domain for a better user experience. If you want to continue to provide your AMP pages automatically under HTTPS, you must now enable HTTPS for your website! The AMP plugin “easy AMP” will continue to support it automatically!

(&amp=1 – If a query string is used)

Version 1.0
