In reply to: Menu and Content for Specific UsersHello Webgeeze,
Thanks for the question about assigning content to specific people. You’re right in that this would need code modification or a plugin that provides the functionality that you seek. When I looked, this particular plugin, User Specific Content, popped up. Per its description, it adds a meta box to the post or page that lets you select specific users by name or roles. It was updated recently, is rated well, and has a pretty good user base. I hope it helps you out!

In reply to: Donnor last name missing in the registration fieldHello Andremichelet,
Sorry for the problems with the Give form. You will need to edit the Give form in order to fix the registration field. Give has quite a bit documentation on their site. You can find it here: Give Plugin Documentation. That should hopefully give you all the information you need to make the change to the form. Make sure to look at the Developer section – the customization information would be found there.

In reply to: Adding locationsHello Robbieray,
You can use a form solution like Gravity forms and then add this plugin that is pre-populated with all of the counties. Hope that helps!

In reply to: Photos/Graphics Are MissingHello Nyslof,
Sorry for the problems with the images. You indicated that the file does not show up in your image library. Try searching for it on your server. In these drag and drop days, it’s always easy to accidentally move a folder to a different location. If you’re not sure how to search, simply search through files for all the .png files and see if any of them match with your missing files.
The error message is quite simply indicating “the file is NOT in the location you’re indicating”. In my experience, it’s either been accidentally moved or deleted. If you don’t have the files in another location, or you can’t restore them from a backup, then you will have to re-obtain the files and then upload back into your site. Sorry that it’s not something we can simply fix by making a correction through WP.
I hope this helps! Please let us know if you still need assistance.

In reply to: HTTP error uploading imagesI would still recommend talking with your host (as per Esmi). They can look and see what’s happening WHILE you are trying to upload the file. If there is a server-side error and it’s HTTP-based, then the Apache Error log should be catching it. Your host will be able to track the error log live and give you more information. This will at least give you something more to determine why the problem is happening.

In reply to: Change Attachment URLs in database SQL queryHello,
I wanted to follow up on your question in regards to the absolute path versus the relative path. I looked at the post content column in the posts table to double-check on the path, and yes, the absolute path is used to define the location of the content. You can use the Better Search and Replace plugin to very easily identify a pattern and then update it.
If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know.

In reply to: Post Title not Showing in Google Plus due to Permalink StructureHello Mcnaveen,
Sorry for the issues with the WordPress permalink not working in Google+. I spent a little time looking at this. Starting with your not working link. When I test it in a browser by itself, I see the article come up titled “NodeOS is a Operating system built with NPM & Linux”. I tested it in my Google+ page and it appears, but it’s definitely not sharing the Post title. When I researched the issue on the internet, there are several possibilities concerning the OpenGraph schema from which the post title is being pulled. The best source I found on the issue is from the Google Developers platform – they discuss the possibilities and define the snippet being used to provide the article preview in your post. Here is the Google Developer’s link:
https://developers.google.com/+/web/snippet/
I also found several discussions on the issue. Some indicate that there is a plugin interfering with the title. I tested the link with the Facebook debugger tool found here. The tool they provide indicates that the proper OpenGraph data is definitely available with the link. This indicates the possibility that the issue is most likely not related to WordPress but with another application or plugin.
I do apologize as this may not possibly help you resolve your problem immediately, but it may lead you in the direction of understanding the issue so that you can implement a resolution.
If you continue to have problems or find a resolution, please let us know.

In reply to: Receiving new comment email but no comment on siteHello Reviewmama,
Sorry for the problems with the confusion with the new comments needing moderation coming from your old site. First, when you look at the email saying you need to moderate the site, please verify WHERE they’re coming from. Are they coming from your new main site, or they coming from the old WordPress.com site. You also mention switching from .com to .org, but you list your main site as a .COM. It appears that your main site is a .COM site, but I don’t see a working .ORG site.
You should be able to look at the email header to determine where the email is coming from. As I was progressing through this, I looked to see if mamasreviewlab.org was registered and it does not appear to be registered. If it was recently registered, you may need to wait on domain propagation in order for the domain to be recognized on the internet. It’s typically several hours or up to 24 hours. If you haven’t registered the domain, then you need to do so in order for the URL to be recognized on the internet.
So, check your email notification to see if you can pinpoint where it came from. Also, you need to get into your Admin on the .com site. Are you getting any particular errors? Finally, make sure to register the .ORG domain if it has not already been registered.
I hope this helps to get you started! Let us know if you continue to have any further issues.

In reply to: Locked out of wordpress siteHello Chiomastudiochi,
Sorry for the problems with logging in! Based on what you’re saying, it’s probably an issue related to your theme. First, make sure to try reverting theme to one of the default themes, such as twenty-sixteen. Before making any further changes – make sure that you make a backup of your site – even though it’s broken, at least you can save it at this point. You can see how to revert back to the older theme in this older post: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/reset-theme-to-default?replies=5
If you can get it working in the default theme, then you may need to re-load the theme or consult with the theme developer to troubleshoot the issue.
I hope that helps!

In reply to: Multiple shipping available at your disposal in WooCommerceHello Archie22is,
If you are trying to provide options that are not in the default installation of Woocommerce, then you would need to add a plugin. The default includes the collect option (under local pickup or local delivery). It also includes:
-
Flat rate
Free Shipping
International DeliveryIf you want to use other services you will need to add an extension. You can find the official Woo commerce extensions for shipping here: https://woocommerce.com/product-category/woocommerce-extensions/shipping-methods/.
I hope that helps!

In reply to: Changing this certain fontHello Joh123,
Changing a font being used in a WordPress theme button requires several steps. As it appears your site is using Font Awesome, you may want to go the route of using a plugin. There is a plugin for Font Awesome 4 menus. If you want to go the code route, you can find the font settings and CSS being used in the site Inspect in Chrome/Firefox. You will need to make changes to those values. If you are using a font that’s not loaded with the theme, then you will need to add the font you decide to use into the list of fonts being loaded by the site. Here’s a tutorial on using Font Awesome if you need it: https://www.sitepoint.com/using-font-awesome-with-wordpress/.
Remember that CSS settings aren’t simply attached to ONE item, they are typically assigned to format setting. For example, if you change the menu item title in CSS, it will affect ALL of the menu items in the site.

In reply to: Edit a image is showing full sizeHello Henrik,
Just wanted to add one thing to MichaelvdBerg’s great answer. He, of course, meant to edit the images BEFORE you bring them into WordPress. If you’re a photographer (it’s my hobby as well), you generally generate hundreds to thousands of images. So, reducing image sizes can be tedious if you have to go through a lot of images. If you are using Photoshop, I highly recommend using the Actions option that they provide in order to make a batch change. This option allows you create a single action, then apply it to multiple files/folders. I looked around and found this tutorial which can walk you through the process, if you need the help: http://thenorthernfoundry.com/how-to-batch-crop-resize-images/.
It’s a great way to save time by simply selecting a folder of images, and then hitting the action to optimize the images into the size(s) that you want to use for WordPress.
Have fun!
