In reply to: is WP in maintenance?Hello @alexandraalegria,
We aren’t able to see what’s happening with your admin section because we cannot log in to your site. Could you please share a screenshot of what you see on https://alexandraalegria.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1168&action=elementor? You can use an app like https://snipboard.io/ if you don’t already know of another method.
For issues like this, there is often a plugin or theme conflict.
Please attempt to disable all plugins, and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.
If you can install plugins, install and activate Health Check: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/health-check/
It will add a new feature under Tools > Site Health.
On its Troubleshooting tab, you can Enable Troubleshooting Mode. This will disable all plugins, switch to a standard WordPress theme (if available), allow you to turn your plugins on and off, and switch between themes, without affecting normal visitors to your site. This allows you to test for various compatibility issues.There’s a more detailed description about how to use the Health Check plugin and its Troubleshooting Mode at https://make.ww.wp.xz.cn/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/.

In reply to: centring gallery widget in sidebarYou’re very welcome!
It appears that I left out the additional
{}for the mobile styles.Please remove this:
@media screen and (max-width: 950px) .gallery-item:nth-child(2n+2) { margin-right: 20px!important; } @media screen and (max-width: 950px) .gallery-item:nth-child(2n+3) { margin-right: 0!important; }And add this instead:
@media screen and (max-width: 950px) { .gallery-item:nth-child(2n+2) { margin-right: 20px!important; } } @media screen and (max-width: 950px) { .gallery-item:nth-child(2n+3) { margin-right: 0!important; } }The images should align correctly after that.

In reply to: Custom CSS for input maskingIf you use a commercial plugin like the Twilio SMS addon and need support, please go to their official support channel. In order to be good stewards of the WordPress community, and encourage innovation and progress, we feel it’s important to direct people to those official locations. You can find support for it here: https://ninjaforms.com/contact/
Forum volunteers are also not given access to commercial products like the Twilio SMS addon, so they would not know why it is not working properly. This is one other reason why volunteers forward you to the commercial product’s vendors, in this case Ninja Forms. They are responsible for supporting their commercial product.

In reply to: Custom CSS for input maskingHey @james215,
In order for us to help you better, could you please give us some more information about what you’re trying to achieve? I do not see any form on https://drumsbyjoe.com.
I assume that you’re referring to the “Phone” field on https://drumsbyjoe.com/contact/:
Is that correct? You should be able to add the “+1” as a default value in the form’s edit page (under DISPLAY > DEFAULT VALUE) inside your WordPress Admin dashboard:

Input masking generally requires JavaScript for it to function. Could you please share the custom CSS you’d like to add to your site?
Also, Ninja Forms does not appear to support their plugin on the ww.wp.xz.cn forums. You can find support for it through the links found here: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/get-faster-support-2/

In reply to: How to properly change URL of live siteI think the solution by @tobifjellner is the simplest way to achieve what you’re trying to achieve. And it’s even better than some other methods because it doesn’t require using any kind of WordPress plugin.

In reply to: embed gutenberg is displaying in editor, but not in front endHi @gmontiel,
I’ve had this issue a few times with both the Classic Editor and Gutenberg. Could you please try copying the embed code from the site you’re trying to embed from? Then paste that embed code into an HTML block. A site’s embed code usually works better for me than letting WordPress figure it out.
If this trick doesn’t work, then there may be a plugin or theme conflict that’s preventing the embed from displaying correctly. In that case, please attempt to disable all plugins, and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.
If you can install plugins, install and activate Health Check: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/health-check/

In reply to: Instagram/Twitter embeds don’t [always] renderHi @chicasfootball,
I’ve had this happen on my sites and have seen it happen on many other sites using both the Classic Editor and Gutenberg. Sometimes the WordPress embed feature does not work properly like you described.
To get around this issue, I recommend copy/pasting the embed codes offered by Twitter and Instagram into the “Text” section of the Classic Editor like these instructions explain: https://colibriwp.com/blog/wordpress-html-editor/#section1.
For Twitter, click on the arrow to the top right of the tweet, such as found on https://twitter.com/CanberraUnited/status/1303866133263519744:

Paste the embed code into the Text section of the Classic Editor. Save the post, the tweet should display on your site correctly.
For Instagram, go to https://www.instagram.com/p/CEc0JltJ897/:
Click on the three-dotted menu:

Paste the embed code into the Text section of your Classic Editor. Save the post and the Instagram post should display correctly on your site.

In reply to: Customise button links to sendinblue – how to removeHello @margryan,
I think the Sendinblue request is part of the Sendinblue plugin that is installed on your site.
If you disable this plugin, then the Sendinblue account request should no longer appear. Disabling this plugin should also allow you to access the Customiser.

In reply to: Images are compressed by defaultHello @diegoarguello66,
Your site uses the Jetpack plugin to host images, which is why the functions.php code did not work. Jetpack’s Site Accelerator feature, which optimizes and hosts your images, is enabled on your site: https://jetpack.com/support/site-accelerator/.
I recommend disabling “Speed up image load times” under Jetpack > Settings > Performance inside your WordPress Admin dashboard. Or disable the Site Accelerator entirely. Then test if your image problem goes away.
I also recommend using a combination of two image plugins:
- WP Retina 2x – it will allow you to serve images on retina and non-retina devices so that your images look crisp and clear on all devices: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-retina-2x/
- Smush: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-smushit/ OR use TinyJPG: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/tiny-compress-images/ – both compress images automatically without a noticeable difference in quality
These two plugins will allow you to upload high resolution images with little impact on your site’s performance.
Alternatively, you could ignore using any kind of image plugin. This option would likely slow down your site, as the images would take much longer to load, especially on mobile devices.

The logo files fully load on all my mobile devices. Have you tried using a different browser or device to open your site?

In reply to: How to properly change URL of live siteHello @kingofthehill ,
I recommend using the Redirection plugin to redirect all links from the old domains and URLs to the new ones: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/redirection/
Redirection will need to be installed on both domains, and will allow you to redirect:
- domainname1.nl to domainname2.com/nl
- domainname2.com to domainname2.com/en
- domainname1.nl/post123 to domainname2.com/nl/post123
You will also need to set up a translation plugin to help you manage the two languages and options (“nl” and “en”) available on your site. Here’s a useful guide featuring three plugins, two paid and one free, with instructions on how to use them: https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-easily-create-a-multilingual-wordpress-site/

In reply to: centring gallery widget in sidebarYou’re welcome!
There are different elements that need to override the original theme to get the images to center on mobile devices.
Please change the following code that you added to your site from my previous reply (there needs to be an
!importantafter theautoand before the;):.gallery-columns-3 .gallery-item { width: auto!important; }Please add this code in the Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS section of your WordPress Admin dashboard:
@media screen and (max-width: 950px) .gallery-item:nth-child(2n+2) { margin-right: 20px!important; } @media screen and (max-width: 950px) .gallery-item:nth-child(2n+3) { margin-right: 0!important; }The bottom of the sidebar should look like this on mobile:
