In reply to: [Independent Analytics - WordPress Analytics Plugin] Count of site visitsHello again, @bensibley
I am reviewing the options available via my WordPress site dashboard after installing WPCodeLite. After selecting ‘Code Snippets’, I have selected ‘Add Snippet’. The list of next available options is extensive. Are you able to advise me, please, on how best to proceed in choosing options that will enable me to create a display of the total number of visits to my site in real time? I recognise that you have already provided some code and I am keen to make best use of it. However, I am not clear on how to move forward.
Many thanksHello @dizzyatinnocraft
Further to this correspondence, I have decided to send a list of logged critical issues and recommended improvements to the host for their consideration.
All the best!Hi @dizzyatinnocraft
I am sorry that I had been drawn away by other commitments. Thank you for your queries.
I have cPanel access and my WordPress site is hosted by a university.Forum: Plugins

In reply to: [Independent Analytics - WordPress Analytics Plugin] Count of site visits@bensibley Thanks for providing some code. From previous counts, I estimate that the current hits total exceeds 12,000, so it would be good not to have to revert back to zero. Thanks also for suggesting the WPCode plugin. From grappling with some of the detail in your last message, it looks like I need to get to grips with the ‘PHP code snipper’ lingo, but from a brief look at the link you provide, this should be an integral part of learning about how this plugin works. I will try to find some time for making best use of this plugin to address my current site issue.

In reply to: [Independent Analytics - WordPress Analytics Plugin] Count of site visits@bensibley Many thanks for this kind response. Would it be possible to get some guidance on the code required to achieve the outcome I am looking for, which includes the site hits total appearing at the top or bottom of individual pages? Also, would it be possible to start the count from a chosen, figure? The site hits counter plugin I had used previously is not compliant with more recent PHP versions, and therefore, I am not longer able to use it. I have a very full schedule, so it really is a case of me dipping into my WordPress site to add enhancements, only when time allows.

In reply to: Creating a skip-login buttonThank you for your interest @threadi. I had done some groundwork on the existing plugin before posting my message. Hopefully, someone with the relevant experience will be able to offer advice on choice of an alternative plugin without doing any research, which I am otherwise happy to do.

In reply to: Creating a skip-login buttonOkay, @threadi; thanks for clarifying that. The plugin I had been using is called Shortcodes Ultimate.

In reply to: [File Manager] Uploads folder is not writableHello
This is an update to clarify that it turns out that the issue I had reported in this thread originates with the plugin Library File Manager (https://en-gb.ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/file-manager/), which I have now uninstalled. Thank you to Rajeev from WP File Manager Plugin Support for his assistance in identifying the source of the issue.

In reply to: Hit counter plugin with PHP update compatibility@threadi Thanks for your contribution. I am hoping to learn from a few personal experiences, as I am concerned about taking up too much time with trial-and-error attempts, given my other commitments.

In reply to: [WP Accessibility Helper (WAH)] Conflict with landing pageThank you, Alex. I am not a developer by profession, so I do not follow you, sorry.
Could you please explain:
1. what you mean by “your body tag” and where I am to locate it;
2. which of the paragraphs of code at the link you have provided is needed and whether I should edit;
and
3. where I should be including the code.
I had mentioned previously that I have an area in the template for the landing page that allows me to include Custom CSS. Is this an area where I could add relevant code to resolve the issue specifically for the landing page and if so, how?
I look forward to moving forward.

In reply to: [WP Accessibility Helper (WAH)] Conflict with landing page@vol4ikman Thanks for considering the request.
1. The landing page URL is https://medstats.mvm.ed.ac.uk/go/main-landing-page/ .
2. How can I verify if my landing page has “get_header(); + get_footer(); functions?”
3. I used the plugin Landing Pages by Inbound Now to create my landing page. However, yesterday I experimented with the alternative plugin Landing Pages by PluginOps and found (as per my previous message) that the display problem recurred.
4. I do not have error logs or console.log reports to offer. Previewing the display issue at the link I have provided will hopefully help you.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [File Manager] Uploads folder is not writable@tempuserkdkz Are you offering a suggestion specifically about how to address the error message I have reported? I am sorry that I am having difficulty implementing what you are suggesting, as I do not follow you. For example, your reference to line 82 appears to apply to line 84. Also, you have not indicated what file you have taken the code you have shared from. Additionally, I do not know what you have in mind in your comment about checking the .htaccess file. Perhaps you are assuming that I should know automatically. That is not the case, however. I am not a software developer.

Thank you for your message. Unfortunately, there are two problems with the form that you have directed me to. Firstly, it does not provide an option to include a screenshot as an attachment. Secondly, it requests an order number, which I do not have.
