In reply to: Just the Blog PleaseExcellent question! Yes and no. Backups were not being done properly until I moved the server from Godaddy to Bluehost in July. There is no blog directory from July on.
Before that I had installed Backup Buddy which never worked. I contacted them numerous times for support and never received it.
Thanks for your speedy response – I appreciate any ideas you have. I really need to get this up and running again

In reply to: Internal Server ErrorSorry for the late reply. Much going on.
It ended up being a .htaccess problem. I was so focused on php.ini and adding memory and seeing no results I finally thought I should add some memory adjustments to .htaccess:
php_value upload_max_filesize 128M
php_value post_max_size 128MWorked like a charm!
Thanks for your help!!!!! I hope this helps someone else.

In reply to: ID disappared. Unable to create links!Thanks again for your speed response.
I’m running 4.22 WordPress.
I have several WordPress and Drupal test sights running in house.
I really don’t like to edit PHP files or the database tables but I’m desperate and can’t have these kinds of delays.
If you go to admin panel – click on Posts from the left side panel. You will see categories. From here you enter a category name, a slug, and parent. There used to be at the top a field with a number, I can’t for the life of me remember what the name was, I just called it link. I read some other posts on other websites that had a snapshot of that page with the title Link. They had the same problem as me – but no solution.
Have a great day!

In reply to: ID disappared. Unable to create links!It is in the WordPress Codex as to where the link is found when you create a catalog item.
I used to be able to create a category and pull the link number from there. In the category Admin page was Name, Slug and a number (link). The link(number) no longer exists on the create category page. The column ID is listed in the article below (Codex) which I read before posting. It wasn’t specific about where that Column ID was located. I assumed it meant in the Category page where Categories are created.
To remedy the problem since this is critial – I went into the database and searched for the Category, found the ID ( now I know what the article meant by ID column – wished it would have been more specific) and manually added it to the php code for the category. So the ID column being referred to in the Codex is a column in one of the tables (wp-terms) in the database.
This is one of the reasons I find the documentions problomatic. They tell you that you do it, but not how, they give some information, but not all, or not specifics. They give you great code, but not where to place it. Sorry, just ranting – I really need this fixed.
But this can’t be a permanent solution.
As for disabling the pluggins – our company is nationwide. We have customers accessing it 24/7. And they will call is there is a problem. And that is a sale we loose. That’s why I said we can’t be down or disable pluggins. The pluggins have been running for 1.5 years without problems.
I believe it has something to do with moving the system from one VPS to another one.
THANKS so much for your support – Without you guys – wordpress would seise to exist!

In reply to: ID disappared. Unable to create links!Thanks very much for the speedy response.
When I go to create a new category – there used to be a link that was created along with it that I could cut and paste where I needed it.
All of the existing Categories still have the links in place. I.E.
Its just when I go create a new category, Page, or Post that I don’t see the link.
Thanks for the links for reading – I had already read them. And it refers to an ID column. I spent hours looking for an ID column. It simple no longer exists.
I can find the categories/links in the wp-terms – but any category I create does not end up in that table – I haven’t been able to track where the new categories are residing.
Please help –
THANKS!

In reply to: Exclude posts on advanced searchOk thanks – I appreciate your time.
No I have no way of contacting the original programmers. Can you make a recommendation of someone that can help me? I don’t have a lot of $$ but I really need to learn wordpress as well as build a new custom server and don’t have a lot of time. I know PHP, HTML, mysql, css. Just need to get through the bumps like this.

In reply to: Exclude posts on advanced searchAs I said they are in India. This site was done several years ago and I’ve only been on the job a few months. What I really need is to just exclude Multi-Family from the search of posts. What would be the best way to do this? I see in the codex something like this: Is this a start? What would come next?
$args = array(
‘posts_per_page’ => -1,
‘category’ => ‘-108’,
‘post_type’ => ‘post’,
‘post_status’ => ‘publish’,
);
THANKS again

In reply to: Exclude posts on advanced searchTHANKS for your quick response
Sorry, let me clarify, this is a custom theme. I was told it was developed by guys in India. And the Search looks like it is from a real estate Advance Search – but there is no plugin – you can see it at:
http://www.nelsondesigngroup.com/?page_id=3224
I’ve added the drop down for dwelling – and the code to exclude multi-family – but it does not work. It still includes both single and multi-family.
The PHP page is advancedsearch.php – this runs the search/sort through the DB
advanced-search.php – this displays the page you see on the website
options_dwelling.php (et el) individual <option><option> for dropdowns.
THANKS!

In reply to: [Advanced Custom Fields (ACF®)] Search featureNow I can get a “partial” dump of the array – it seems to pull every 4th item in the array. Why is that? here is my code – it was taken directly from the AFC resources.
$special_feature = ”;
$special_features = ”;
echo ‘<h5>Special Features</h5>’;
$special_features = get_field(‘special_features’);
if($special_features)
{
echo’- ‘; foreach($special_features as $special_feature)
- ‘ . $special_feature . ‘
{
echo ‘‘;
}
echo ‘‘;
}
}Thanks for your quick response – I will forward information to your web address. The website is still in maintenance mode. we are hoping to launch at the end of the month.
