In reply to: Remove “Just Another WordPress site” from the tab at topHi,
There are two ways: Changing it from Appearance->Themes->Customize. Then on the left hand panel Site Identify->Site Title & Tagline.
Or Dashboard->Settings->GeneralAn SEO plugin like Yoast will also allow you to customize your Site Title.
Hope this helps.

In reply to: Media Library is eating all my RAM & CPUHi,
So, I had a similar issue with a shared hosting server. The RAM kept maxing out. I do two thing which helped:
1. Ensured that image sizes were not greater than 2000×2000 px. Lower the better. So don’t have images beyond 2000 pixels in width or height. They don’t work well with shared hosting. The image compressing plugins only come into play after the image has been uploaded, and there’s a lot of processing required to optimize these images. It’s best that you upload compressed images unless of course you need very high res images on the site.
2. Tweak the PHP Memory limit:
Find out where your php.ini is located for your hosting server. In my case I created one in the web root, and added the following settings: (the memory_limit setting is the important one).memory_limit = 256M
upload_max_filesize = 200M
post_max_size=200M
max_execution_time=300If you don’t have access to php.ini you can try using wp-config or the .htaccess file.
Here’s are links that show how you can increase the allowed PHP memory limit: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/increasing-the-wordpress-memory-limit/

In reply to: Accessing WordPress on MAMP outside local Mac?Hey,
So setting a website using a server software like MAMP will only work on your local PC. What you want is a hosting server where you can host your website to be accessible on the internet from anywhere
When your run the MAMP server on your PC, you’re basically getting a local web server only for your PC. Once you finish developing your website you need to move it to a hosting server and register it with a domain name for it to be accessible on the internet.
Hope this helps.

In reply to: Removing My Splash / Landing PageHi,
So from what I know, (past/future) permalinks won’t (and shouldn’t) change as your WordPress is already installed in a subdirectory. So http://www.website.com/site/post01 will still be http://www.website.com/site/post01 but when a visitor visits the page it will appear as http://www.website.com/post01. This is because the Site URL is http://www.website.com. However to access your dashboard you will have to provide the subdirectory i.e. http://www.website.com/site/wp-admin
My own website is in a sub folder. You can see that after visiting this link the subfolder is not visible, but if you copy the hyperlink to your text editor, it contains the subfolder in it. In fact any page of the site works with or without the subfolder after the domain name.

In reply to: Can’t login to Admin Area. Says wrong password, but DB is fine.It’s strange. You could try disabling the plugins especially the one’s related to security (if you have any). To disable plugins through FTP you can rename the plugin’s folder name.
e.g rename wp-contents/plugins/akismet to wp-contents/plugins/akismet-backup.
I can only think of a bad plugin causing the issue otherwise I am out of ideas.

In reply to: Can’t login to Admin Area. Says wrong password, but DB is fine.Hi,
You don’t need to create an HASH. Enter your password in plain text via PHPMyAdmin. And then select the function as MD5.
You can see step by step by step details here in the phpMyAdmin section:

In reply to: Removing My Splash / Landing PageOk, if I understand correctly your landing/splash is not related to wordpress. It’s a separate HTML page that redirects to your wordpress installation under the site/(or some) folder.
If you want your site to work as http://website.com then you’ll have to change the Site Address (URL) and perform some additional steps. Only changing the Site URL will break your website as you’ve already encountered.
Here is the detailed documentation – Have a look at Method II.
https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_DirectoryNote: this will remove the subfolder occurrence from your permalinks but your website and permalinks will still work. So a page like http://website.com/site/about will now be http://website.com/about. Your dashboard will still be accessible through http://website.com/site/wp-admin
1. You’ll have to get rid of your splash page from FTP manually before your begin the process mentioned above.
2. Don’t change the WordPress address (URL): it should reflect the address of your main WordPress core files. Example: http://example.com/wordpress
You can start with Step 4.Karan
Hi,
Have a look at NextGen Gallery. The user can login to upload files to a gallery. And then add/edit captions, descriptions to already uploaded files. You can also restrict what they can do using their roles and capabilities manager.
In case their built-in roles manager is not sufficient you can also use a plugin called User Role Editor for advanced role management.

You can try changing what your Front Page should display from Dashboard->Settings->Reading. You Static Front page would currently be set to your Landing page.

In reply to: Building a Local SiteHi,
Yes, there are tools to setup a local installation of WordPress and your site, so you can develop and test locally first. To do that you will need to install WordPress on your PC using MAMP (MAC) or WAMP/XAMPP (Windows). Once WordPress is setup and running you should replicate your website using the theme and media files on your local machine.
Here are some links that can help you to this:
https://developer.ww.wp.xz.cn/themes/getting-started/setting-up-a-development-environment/
XAMPP Setup
MAMP SetupOnce WordPress is running you can copy your theme and media files manually or you can use plugins like WP Migrate DB to setup a copy on your local.
For Backups have a look at these:

In reply to: Pagination for a custom loopHi,
The issue of the same post of all pages seems to be related with the pagination variable. Here’s a nice article for custom loops with pagination.
http://callmenick.com/post/custom-wordpress-loop-with-paginationPerhaps you try a simple custom loop with just the basic filters and get the pagination to work, and then add in your functions and code.

In reply to: Querying Custom Posts Using an ArrayHey, so can you do this (on your dev/test env) to see your $similar variable in case you haven’t already.
echo ‘
' . var_dump($similar ) . '
‘;
I was looking at this thread, and thought the IN may work!

In reply to: Querying Custom Posts Using an ArrayHi,
So I am not clear about the for loop but if it works good. You may want to try the IN operator instead of LIKE.
