In reply to: remove wp-content/uploads/ from specific media urlHello @jenniferlang ,
The following guides offer different ways of changing/removing the wp-content/uploads path: https://techguides.co/69677/how-to-change-wordpress-media-uploads-path-url-folder-location/
If it’s just for PDF files, then that’s more complicated. You’d benefit in terms of SEO by shortening all URLs related to the wp-content/uploads folder anyway by using one of the methods above.

In reply to: Could not create directory.Hi @ctodd,
I think you might have a folder permissions problem that’s preventing WordPress from creating directories on your server.
I recommend verifying and changing your file permissions to the recommended settings using the following guide: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/article/changing-file-permissions/
If that doesn’t work, I suggest installing the Health Check plugin, which may help you find some clues as to what’s causing the directory creation problem: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/health-check/.
Hello @catsndogs9999,
What do you mean by WordPress account? Are you referring to an account that’s hosted on WordPress.com? Or the account that’s part of your self-hosted ww.wp.xz.cn site?

That’s interesting. It worked when I right-clicked and selected “Paste as plain text” and when I did “Ctrl+Shift+V”.

In reply to: Copy from spreadsheet cell into page title does not workHello @bhkh,
If you’re sure that this worked before 5.5, you can report the bug by following the instructions found here: https://make.ww.wp.xz.cn/core/handbook/testing/reporting-bugs/.
I thought that there may also have been a plugin or theme conflict on your site.
However, after disabling my plugins and using the WordPress Twenty Twenty theme, I copy/pasted a field from a spreadsheet into Gutenberg’s Title section, and I had the same issue.
Gutenberg appears to detect the formatting copied from the spreadsheet:

In reply to: New “Welcome to our website!”Hello @danflei,
That text is created by the Top Bar plugin ( https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/top-bar/) as @theotherlebowski mentioned.
If you disable the plugin, the text should be removed and the green section at the top of your site should be a bit shorter.
Hi Lisa,
You’re most welcome!
Best,

In reply to: remove website from Google searchGoogle has a guide on how to remove a URL: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/6332384?hl=en
I think you’ve already taken the steps to remove the content from Google anyway: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/9689846?hl=en. Under “Make your removal permanent,” it states that you web server should return a 404 error, which your server does on the URLs that you shared. You’ll have to a wait for Google to re-index your site and remove those URLs once it sees the 404 errors.

In reply to: Website shows old images after image replacement in a blockHi Sina,
I see two images within the code of https://legalwiseseminars.com.au/law-for-non-lawyers/migration-agents/:
1) The one with the people – https://legalwiseseminars.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/O6PG4Q022-scaled.jpg
2) The one with the plane and map: https://legalwiseseminars.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Immigration.pngThat means that both images have been specified to load on your site. The old block that you don’t want needs to be deleted on the edit page of https://legalwiseseminars.com.au/law-for-non-lawyers/migration-agents/ found in your WordPress Admin dashboard. The image should still remain inside your WordPress Media library. The Media library is where WordPress keeps the image files that you upload from your site, so that you can manage, re-use, and delete them more easily.

In reply to: centring gallery widget in sidebarHello!
Have you tried centering the block using the Change Alignment option: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/article/gallery-block/?
If that doesn’t work, please select the gallery block that contains the custom social icons inside the page’s editor and click on the Advanced tab.
Under Additional CSS class(es) please enter “custom-social-icons” and save the page.
Then add this code in the Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS section of your WordPress Admin dashboard:
.custom-social-icons .blocks-gallery-grid, .custom-social-icons .wp-block-gallery { justify-content: center; padding-left: 0px; } .custom-social-icons li.blocks-gallery-item { width: auto!important; } .custom-social-icons .blocks-gallery-item:nth-of-type(2n) { margin-right: 16px; }Forum: Developing with WordPress
