In reply to: What can I add to this php email form to make send cv as attachedHi,
Forms are crazy complex and there are a number of things to consider from both a security perspective and compatibility perspective. Is there a reason why you’re not using a form plugin that’s dedicated to doing forms properly? Something like Ninja Forms?

In reply to: Please help me to remove Author box from the bottom of postsHi,
Can you share a link to your site so I can look at the source directly?

In reply to: Publish section missingHi,
A couple things to try.
1) Temporarily deactivate all plugins and see if it shows back up. If not,
2) Temporarily activate the default Twenty Fifteen theme.Let me know how that works out.

In reply to: Website Upgrade with New ThemeHi,
You can use a plugin like Theme Test Drive to do that. https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/theme-test-drive/

In reply to: Changing the URL of my siteHi,
That won’t be enough. When changing the URL there, it doesn’t go through and change all the URLs to internal content like attachments, other posts, etc. You’ll want to use something like these:
https://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/search-and-replace/
Obviously make a backup before doing that. BackWPup is a good plugin for easily backing up your site. https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/backwpup/

In reply to: Help with redirecting non-logged in users (guests)Hi,
If you’re not familiar with coding, one of the easiest ways to do this will be to install the Restrict Content plugin, or Restrict Content Pro if you need the premium features. Both will let you easily set up the visibility controls for your content.
Hi there,
It’s best to track down the problem, or at least report it on the WordPress Trac so people can look into it. Not upgrading WordPress is a horrible plan. There were recently some very important security updates. Disable updates and not installing them is not a good solution.

In reply to: Upload website to serverHi,
Who is your web host? If you sign into the site using FTP, what files do you see in the root folder? Can you share a screenshot? It sounds like maybe there’s a file overriding the WordPress index.php file.

In reply to: Relative links go to rootHi,
It depends on the method you used to clone the site. If it wasn’t smart enough to rewrite the links to the new site URL, that’s what you’ll end up with. There are various search and replace tools you can use to search that URL and replace it, though it can be tricky. How did you end up with relative URLs instead of absolute?

In reply to: Trying to exclude some posts but not othersHi Adam,
As noted on the
query_postsdocumentation page, it’s not meant to be used by themes or plugins. Screenshot. http://cl.ly/image/1e1W0V1J1A2bYou’re better to use WP_Query instead.
See the
operatoroption here: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Taxonomy_ParametersSo something like this (untested):
$args = array( 'post_type' => 'person', 'tax_query' => array( array( 'taxonomy' => 'person_type', 'field' => 'slug', 'terms' => 'department-chair', 'operator' => 'NOT IN' ) ) ); $faculty = new WP_Query( $args );Again, not tested, but that should get you pointed in the right direction.

In reply to: Why does the admin section look weird on MacBookHi,
This doesn’t appear to be something that would be limited to a retina display. It looks like you simply have too many columns visible. Does it sort itself out if you turn some of them off under the Screen Options tab? http://cl.ly/image/2R0L1d3r3V37

In reply to: Paypal issues with WordPressHi Vicki,
If you’re not using some kind of ecommerce plugin that has recurring subscription support, you may be able to find a plugin that does it for you here. Check this list. https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/search.php?type=term&q=paypal+subscription

In reply to: Images don't show with UPDATEHi Maria,
It looks like they’re not loading due to a SSL certificate issue. Your site is running on http://, but those images are linked in from https://… not the “s” there.
If you try to load one of those images, you’ll notice that the SSL certificate that runs the site on https is having some issues. See this screenshot. http://cl.ly/image/0Y172R3D2A0T
Did you make any changes to that recently, or know if your web host made any changes?

In reply to: [Editor] Sidebar widthHi,
The sidebar width is controlled by
.site-headerin CSS. The default width is 20%. You can override that using the Editor child theme, by adding some CSS to the style.css in that child theme.Something like:
.site-header { width: 25%; }
