In reply to: Any way to put a-tags outside of div-tags?Whenever I’ve had problems getting the HTML I wanted into the Page/Post Editor, I wrote a Shortcode to do it for me. If you are not up to writing a plugin to create the Shortcode, there are plugins in the Plugin Directory that allow you to create Shortcodes in an Admin panel.
But first, you may wish to consider using <span> instead of <div>. Not sure it works for you, but it sure solved the same kind of problem that I had a few weeks back.

In reply to: How to adjust my mobile site layoutSince the answer to your question is likely Theme-dependent, I suggest you re-ask the question on the Support Forum for your Theme, Argent:

In reply to: fatal errorBecause this is a WooCommerce issue, I suggest you re-post the error here: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce in the WooCommerce support forum.

In reply to: How To Iterate Daily thru Posts and Update Custom FieldYes, get_posts() is a good choice.
Though obviously, you are going to have to update the custom fields with a relevant function, too.

In reply to: Blurry Images?One more thing: changes to those Settings only show on Images added to the Media Library AFTER the changes. In other words, after you make a change, delete and re-load any images you are having problems with.

In reply to: Blurry Images?Ah, now that makes sense. Browser scaling is awful quality. You can see if that is what is happening by right mouse clicking on the image on your website in your browser, and see if it says “rescaled” or whatever the wording is on your browser.
Anyway, I’ve had that kind of problem, and solved it by reviewing and changing settings on the Settings-Media admin panel described here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Media_ScreenThese settings are very dependent on your Theme and/or any Gallery plugin you might be using.

In reply to: Blurry Images?Not something I have much experience with, but I do recall having issues with PNG images a couple of years ago. In other words, I’d be very interested in reading an answer to this from someone with some experience in the area.
Personally, what I did when I wanted to get PNG-like quality and ran into problems with PNGs, was to change it into a JPG using a 98% Quality setting.
I just realized that there may be another answer: if the browser is scaling the picture up dynamically. Check in your browser to make sure that the image displayed on your web site is being displayed by your browser as 600×300.

In reply to: How To Iterate Daily thru Posts and Update Custom FieldAssuming you are up to writing your own plugin, you could use the wp_schedule_event() function, described here:
- https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wp_schedule_event/
- https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_schedule_event
Be sure to read the examples. And this:
https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/cron/understanding-wp-cron-schedulingIf you are not wanting to write your own plugin to handle this, you could explore the Plugin Directory for a plugin that handles the scheduling part for you. Here is a good search to get you started in that direction:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?type=term&q=cronAlso note that low volume traffic web sites will benefit from using the operating system’s Cron equivalent to ensure that WordPress actually gets run daily at the time of your choosing.
That is my 5 minute answer. If you need more, I’ll go read up on the subject.

In reply to: Excluding wp-admin folder from statisticsI switched my non-techie webmasters to Jetpack Site Stats, after having them view awstats for years. They much prefer it.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/In case you are interested, hits on /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php tells you how often your site actually uses AJAX.

In reply to: [My Private Site] No Login RequiredAs I said at the outset, David provides the official support, including changes to the plugin. I’m just a bystander at this point in time.
Thanks for all the hard work diagnosing this problem. It sounds like Jetpack is doing more caching than just its Photon feature which caches images. If so, how do you flush that cache? That will be the real mystery to solve.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [My Private Site] No Login RequiredI have no Mac experience, but I would suggest researching Safari caching, to be sure that you haven’t missed some part of its cache. For example, this article talks about a time range: https://guides.instructure.com/m/4214/l/334964-how-do-i-clear-my-browser-cache-on-a-mac
Not sure that I can do much else at this point.

In reply to: [My Private Site] No Login RequiredThanks for YOUR patience on this.
The official documentation on Caching is brief: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Optimization/Caching
Both Server Caching and Browser Caching can be a problem with this plugin, in the sense that both Caches may need to be flushed (completely) if there is any chance the Cache may include a “protected page”. As well as what the article says, some plugins include caching by default, even though they are not Caching Plugins. If in doubt, you may need to momentarily disable any suspect plugins while testing My Private Site. In my experience, Security plugins are the most likely to Cache.My Private Site is designed to automatically display the default wp-login.php WordPress login (or a Custom one you select in the Settings) whenever a non-logged-in visitor to your site goes to one of your “protected pages”.
“I am not sure how you would set the settings to accomplish that…” was based on the plugin setting having a concept of protecting everything but what you specify in Visible Exclusions. There is no “Protect Nothing” setting nor Invisible Exclusions.
I hope that addresses your questions.
As for the issues that you are seeing, the high likelihood (Cause) is Server Caching. It really is important, at this point, to rule that out as the possible Cause.

In reply to: [My Private Site] No Login RequiredI do not understand: “I have Current Visible URL Entries on all pages except Home, Blog-Posts, Classmates:We Found You, and Classmates:In Memoriam.”
Do you mean that you want everything to be visible except the following four pages, which you want to be hidden: Home, Blog-Posts, Classmates:We Found You, and Classmates:In Memoriam? If so, I’m not sure how you would set the settings to accomplish that, as the Settings were originally intended to protect everything and exclusions were added later.
At this point, the easiest way to explain what you have set up in the plugin would be to list (cut and paste) what the plugin shows under “Current Visible URL Entries”.
