In reply to: [Hide My Site] Suggest a window in which you can place a messageHola Adolfa (estoy tratando de aprender espanol…),
If you go to Settings > Hide My Site > Notification Message, you can choose a message to show on your login page. For example, you could choose a message that says “This site is password protected while under development. Enter your password to access the development site.”
All the best,

In reply to: [Simple Tooltips] specific tooltip for specific images/textsHi Mahzi,
Yes this plugin will allow you to do that. You have to edit the html for the image. Your html for the image should look like this:
<img src="yourimage.jpg" class="tooltips" title="this is the tooltip message">.It is also possible to include a link in the tooltip message. You have to escape the < and > characters within the tooltip message. Refer to this thread for an example on how to do that

In reply to: [Hide My Site] Plugin Not workingThis type of issue is usually caused by caching issues. In addition to your own browser cache, there can also be conflicts with caching plugins and server-side caching. Do you have any caching plugins installed? If not, does your host automatically cache your pages for you (certain hosts, like wpengine, are known to do this)? If it’s a plugin, try deactivating the caching plugin and give the site a couple hours to stop serving the cached pages. If your host caches the pages for you, consider contacting them and asking them to disable that feature.
Good luck,

In reply to: [Hide My Site] Remove the login page?Hi Mark,
The live site seems to be working now. When I just checked out your link, I was able to access the live site directly.
It could be that you had some type of caching plugin that temporarily was showing the login page, so you should be in the clear removing forward – as I am no longer seeing the cached version of your site (ie the login page). If you are still seeing the login page, maybe try clearing your browser’s cache.
Good luck,

In reply to: [Hide My Site] Will this damage the SEO potential of a site?Hi zetland,
It shouldn’t hurt your SEO once your website goes live. The Google bot will continue to crawl your page, and once it finds the published site, it will update the search results accordingly.
Best,

In reply to: [Simple Tooltips] Doesn't work with WordPress 4Hi Plan,
That’s strange. I have tested Simple Tooltips on WP 4 and can confirm that it is compatible. There might be some other factor on your site that is conflicting with the plugin. It is odd that it stopped working for you after you upgrading to wp 4. Not sure why that happened. All I know is that that can’t be the only reason that it stopped working, because I have it installed on WP 4 and it’s working for me.
Good luck,

In reply to: [Hide My Site] Fatal Error message after updating to 1.4.1Hi Vicky,
This doesn’t seem like something that would be connected to the plugin. Are you still having the problem?

In reply to: [Hide My Site] embed a videoIf you don’t mind messing around with code (html/css), you can edit the login page template file which is located in the plugin folder/templates/hmsclassic.php
This way, you would be able to embed a video. The login button and box are images, so you could also change those by uploading different images to your site and setting the page to use those images via editing the login page template file.
Keep in mind that any of these changes would be lost if you were to update the plugin in the future, because the file would get overridden.

In reply to: [Hide My Site] Password request for every page?Hello,
The plugin is not compatible with wpengine because they have automatic caching enabled on all their sites. This conflicts with the intended behavior of the plugin.
There’s no way that I know of to work around this conflict with caching. I plan on adding a notice to the plugin page so that users know it is not compatible with sites that have caching enabled.
Thanks,

In reply to: [Hide My Site] W3 Total Cache issueHello,
I’ve been doing some looking into the issue. Turns out the plugin won’t be able to work properly if you have the caching plugin active. The reason for this is that the login page gets cached by the plugin for every page, so even when you are logged in you will still be delivered the cached version of that page which is the ‘login’ screen. It seems also sometimes (as in your case), the actual website gets cached for every page, so even when you are logged out you will still be delivered the cached version of that page which is the actual website.
There’s no way that I know of to work around this conflict with caching pages. I plan to add a notice to the plugin page so that users know it is not compatible with sites that have caching plugins.

In reply to: [Simple Tooltips] Position of tootip for image-mapI don’t know off-hand about using the tooltips on image maps as I’ve never tried it. If you ever figure this out and you get the chance, feel free to post your solution here so others can benefit from it.
Thanks,

In reply to: [Hide My Site] cant find the admin part to add the plug inIf you don’t see a ‘plugins’ option on the left side of your WordPress admin section, this means you have a WordPress.com site. If you want to be able to install custom plugins, you have to have a ww.wp.xz.cn site.
You can read more about the differences between the two in this article https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/wordpress-org-vs-wordpress-com/

In reply to: [Simple Tooltips] not positioning correctlyHi Patric,
I think the problem has to do with the WordPress admin bar at the top offsetting the position for everything else on the page.
In other words, the problem only happens when you are logged in as admin. Your typical site user will see the tooltip as positioned correctly.
To see for yourself, try logging out and viewing your site or go to your site from a browser that’s not logged in.
I haven’t yet figured out a way to fix the bug related to the wp admin bar that would work across all sites. If you want me to take a closer look at your site specifically you can email me at: info at clevelandwebdeveloper dot com

In reply to: [Simple Tooltips] Link & anchor with tooltipHi Chris,
This is a pretty advanced issue. If you’re not comfortable messing around with javascript/jquery code, it’s not going to be possible.
Otherwise, it should be doable depending on how your page is structured. Can you send me over a link to the page? If you want to send it privately you can use my email info at clevelandwebdeveloper dot com
