In reply to: Exclude blog category from archive onlyThanks for this, but I already tried this.
If I use the ultimate category excluder plugin, even if I don’t check the ‘home page’ box, it still deletes the sliders from the main home page. Only deleting the plugin restores them.
If I add the php code to functions.php (in the child theme), using the correct ID of -14, then nothing happens and the category remains in the archive list.
Cheers

In reply to: Authy 2FA has locked me out of my siteNo, I’m not using wordpress.com or anything. I have a standard Apache cloud server with one of the leading ISPs. I host five sites on it, including this one with the 2FA problem. The URL is http://www.branddoctorconsulting.com.
I’m beginning to think the quickest and easiest way is to go the backupbuddy route and put everything back as it was!

In reply to: Authy 2FA has locked me out of my siteJames, I don’t doubt your technical expertise. But the plugins folder contains exactly the same plugins that it did before. But I have just carried out the plugin reset. I then renamed the folder back and logged in to the site. I keyed in my username and password. Then the same verification code box comes up with the accompanying text saying:
‘A verification code has been sent to the email address associated with your account.’ As authy only creates codes on the iphone app, I assume it is these that I must use, as I do not receive any codes via email. I only have two email addresses, neither of which has ever received any codes via email. James.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Authy 2FA has locked me out of my siteJames, I can assure you that there is no plugin associated with authy in the WP plugins folder, as I double checked with my ftp program. James.

In reply to: Authy 2FA has locked me out of my siteI think I misread the WP instructions but I downloaded the app onto my iPhone, scanned the qr-code in WordPress, used the verication from that and applied it to the app. So the app started to generate the codes but obviously they weren’t being accepted by WP. To be fair, as a non-techie person, it was pretty stupid but WP as I recall simply had URLs to several 2FA apps, and when I chose authy I followed the instructions and I don’t recall WP saying anything about installing an authy plugin as well. So, I think it has probably modified the dB, but I can’t see anything new written in the WP config file or anywhere else in the actual WP install. Hope this helps! Cheers, James.
