I just thought I wold try Elementor, on a new server (brand new wordpress install on a clean empty server using only twentynineteen) and it just doesn’t load. Grey screen.
I had Litespeed, Pods, Classic Editor plugins but deactivated all of them. No difference. I had created a simple child theme for my edits but I even went back to “raw” twentynineteen. Nope!
It’s weird to see pages and pages of people reporting this sort of error for nine months, does not give me confidence!
Now someone suggester Beaver?….

In reply to: Need help with shareholders' list (database?)This sort of functionality is certainly fairly straightforward when you have the bits and pieces – but it might take a while as an absolute beginner to get there. You could do worse than watch a series of YouTube videos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HJ_WfNYWsw
Someone with a bit of experience in this area could fairly quickly have you set up but doing it yourself will involve an “interesting” learning process.

In reply to: How to make a dynamic sidebar?Looks like what you mean is a menu in a sidebar? You can just add a menu in a sidebar widget to the relevant pages – the menu will be redrawn every time the page is loaded because the sidebar is called from the page itself but should be reasonably quick.
The alternative involves a little more coding as the menu can be static but open the new page in a frame. I’d try the simple version first and see if it works for you.

In reply to: See link for a particular UserThis can be done with a combination of plugins – Groups, Members and Woocommerce and others.
You can have sections of each page (e.g. links) visible to different member types. You can also show or hide pages by users / groups. By extension this could be specific to individual members.
There are a series of videos showing you how to do it on

p {color: black;}
.single-content a {color: black;}Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: different top level menu'sSounds more like javascript than php – it’s going to happen on the client when a menu item is clicked. You could have separate sections / divs, hidden initially, each with one type of menu in it, and use the main menu selection to show/hide the appropriate one. The top level menu wouldn’t be a WordPress menu (which launches pages) but simply a list of buttons.
Hopefully I’ve understood your needs!

In reply to: Show image from gallery IDYou can use [gallery include="159" link="none"] to show the image which has ID 159 in your media library but without linking to the image .
To remove automatic styles like the border you can put something like this in your css depending on the theme you’re using
.gallery img {border: 0;}
It would appear you need to copy the php file that generates your front page, and use it to create a new template page type.

In reply to: CSS help.full-width-2801 {
display: none;
}does it but you need to give the div for the area an ID to prevent a site-wide effect for this class.

In reply to: Finding a themeThere are so many WordPress based sites in the voluntary sector that you will probably be able to search others similar to yours for an example that’s like what you want. Then contact the agency, or examine the code, to find the theme they use.

In reply to: having trouble changning my headersIf you are using Chrome or Firefox (maybe other browsers) you can right-click and ‘Inspect Element” to see the corresponding code. Moving focus on the inspector will highlight whatever part of the webpage is affected by the highlighted line of code. for each line of code you’ll see on the right pane the corresponding css.
However you might want to be careful changing css, depending on how much coding experience you have!
