In reply to: allowed Memory exhausted- can't log in to fix itBest of luck! Yes you will want to familiarize yourself with logging into your server via FTP, hopefully your host can provide some assistance. If you’re not comfortable with it, you may want to seek outside assistance.

In reply to: How to change the page title and meta description of my website?Try swapping this:
<title>Directors of Industries</title>
For this:
<title><?php wp_title(”); ?></title>I’m not sure if this will work either way but it could be worth a go.

In reply to: Add viewcount on my websiteHello,
That tutorial explains it better than I ever could in a WordPress Support forum post. If you are having difficulties following it, I would recommend looking for another alternative or hiring a developer to complete this for you.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How to change the page title and meta description of my website?Would you be able to supply a link to your website? It may help us better assist you.
You will want to ensure the following is within your header.php file of your active theme:
<title><?php wp_title(''); ?></title>Other than that, not much else is required for Yoast to correctly populate the meta information.

Are you sure? I defined the memory limit within wp-config.php in a site this week (running the latest version of WordPress) and it resolved the issue perfectly.I realize there are lots of other ways to do this as well but I can assure you that it worked on the newest version of WordPress.

In reply to: Add viewcount on my websiteThis tutorial should help you but it does not use a plugin and requires modifications to your functions.php file & your individual theme files. If you know your way around WordPress a little, it should be pretty easy to follow:

Hope it helps

In reply to: allowed Memory exhausted- can't log in to fix itSorry, I should note that you may need to increase where I wrote 64M to something like 128M or even 256M. Start small and then work your way up if you continue to receive the error.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: allowed Memory exhausted- can't log in to fix itYou shouldn’t need access to WordPress to address the memory limit. You should login via FTP, edit your wp-config.php file and place this line in it:
define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’);
If you are unsure how to login to FTP, you should contact your web hosting provider for assistance.

In reply to: Google thinks my webpage looks badWith WordPress this is very typical as your robots.txt will prevent Google’s fetch feature from grabbing files within wp-includes & wp-admin. These files are critical for Google’s bot to get a view of the website like a normal human were. We actually wrote a blog post about this today since so many people were notified by Google about their bot being unable to access specific CSS & JS. You may find it helpful, it also provides a guide to resolve the issue: https://www.wpcover.com/2015/07/28/googlebot-cannot-access-css-and-js-what-you-should-do/

In reply to: logging into blog – link not workingHi John,
As with most troubleshooting techniques you’ll find with the WordPress support forum, it’s going to begin with deactivating all your plugins that could be on the site. Easiest way to do this is either through PHPMyAdmin or by renaming the wp-plugins folder within wp-content. Here’s a guide that may assist: http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-deactivate-all-plugins-when-not-able-to-access-wp-admin/
If that doesn’t help, the next step would be setting your theme to the default to see if it is a theme issue. This is done relatively the same way by renaming your current theme to something else so WordPress defaults back.
If that still doesn’t work then I would recommend a complete re-install of WordPress minus the wp-content folder to rule out any issue with the core files.
I would imagine one of these three tasks will assist you in figuring out where your problem lies, however after determining that, it will be another step in actually getting it resolved.

In reply to: Contact Us Form – Free and SimpleIf you want a more robust form plugin, highly recommend Gravity Forms. Not free but well worth the money in my opinion. Gravity Forms does also have a phone field that includes proper validation.

In reply to: How can i get smooth scrolling for my site?I did visit the website but didn’t notice anything particular about the scrolling vs any other website I visit. Scrolling can also depend on the internet browser you are using so we could be seeing slightly different things (I’ve viewed the website on both Firefox & Chrome).

In reply to: Place social media icons in top nav bar area?We have a few clients that utilize SumoMe, http://sumome.com/
Very easy way to implement some new social media sharing buttons & newsletter subscription box that can popup as the user scrolls.
SumoMe offers a very intuitive interface that makes all of this pretty easy to implement and customize.
I am in no way related to the company so can’t answer any specific questions but I’ve heard and seen good things, maybe something to consider if you’re looking for easy implementation without having to hire a developer :).

In reply to: How can i get smooth scrolling for my site?I’m not sure I am following your definition of “scrolling”. Are you referring to scrolling further down the page on a link click? If so, CSS-tricks has a simple tutorial on that here: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/jquery/smooth-scrolling/
Or are you referring to some kind of lazy load? Where the images load after the initial page load. I notice that is a feature in the example link you provided. If that’s the case, you could look into a WordPress plugin like: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/bj-lazy-load/ . Or you can do it manually without a plugin via: http://www.appelsiini.net/projects/lazyload
Hope this helps.
