In reply to: [Multiple Themes] Widgets in second themeUnfortunately, that is something that the plugin does not address “directly”.
The best that I can offer is the Workarounds (ideas that might work) listed on the Theme Options tab of the plugin’s Settings page.
My apologies if you have already tried those workarounds. I wasn’t clear on that from your inquiry.

In reply to: [Multiple Themes] Second Theme doesnt use Home themeBecause of time zone differences, I am just seeing this now.
I need to clarify what you are asking. I think you are asking how to get the Business Theme to display its Home page format somewhere other than the true WordPress Home page of the WordPress Site. If so, that would be a question for the support folks at graphpaperpress.com.
If you are actually selecting Business as the theme for Home in my plugin, then please let me know, as that should work.
Finally, if all else fails, one alternative may be to use a WordPress Network, where the Business theme is the true WordPress Home page of Site 2, using subfolder/subdirectory Sites.
As I say, I’m just a little confused by your wording, as to what you have actually done.

In reply to: Just installed newest wordpress version on my WampserverOnly ideas I have are:
- Investigate what “Services” are running on your Windows machine, typically through Task Manager. And see if any of them is a Web Server (requires researching likely suspects)
- (unlikely to be the issue, but you never know)Be sure that WAMP or XAMPP is running as an Administrator

In reply to: Multiple primary key defined for query ALTER TABLEThe error message is related to the YITH WooCommerce Wishlist plugin.
Try disabling that plugin and/or taking a look here, and possibly reporting the problem: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/yith-woocommerce-wishlist

In reply to: Connecting awardspace and wordpress [installing premium theme]Assuming you have a URL like kimkirimkim.wordpress.com (as opposed to a domain name of your own like kimkirimkim.com), you’ll have to ask the WordPress.com support folks whether redirecting is allowed under their Terms and Conditions. Start here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/

In reply to: Moved wordpress site to main root – can't loginYou should have an index.php in the root directory and it should include the statement
require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/abcd/wp-blog-header.php' );where abcd is the name of the directory where you installed WordPress originally (where it should now be again after you restored from backup).Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: Problem installing WordPress on Wamp Server.A generic suggestion that works for this kind of problem on any web server: use FTP to create a test.txt file in the same place where you installed WordPress, and try to access it via the web browser.
In your case, wherever you installed the /wordpress/ folder. Wait a minute. You nowhere talk about having a folder called /wordpress/ on your WAMP directory. If you installed it in the “root” then use http://localhost/wp-admin
Finally, be sure that WAMP is using Port 80.

In reply to: Just installed newest wordpress version on my WampserverI had that problem with Web PI. A server was still starting up automatically, blocking things.
If Port 80 is fine, you may want to use XAMPP, which I have had a lot of success with.

In reply to: Just installed newest wordpress version on my WampserverIf it were me, I would be reviewing this Codex documentation, if you haven’t already:
https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/installing-a-local-server/installing-wampserver/
including the link at the bottom:

In reply to: Edit Comment section in Twenty FifteenHow about this?
https://wordpress.org/plugins/show-comment-policy/Child Themes are nice, but they require a lot more on-going effort to keep them up to date. I tend to favour plugins for this reason.

In reply to: Problem installing WordPress on Wamp Server.The Codex has a highly detailed procedure that I would be inclined to trust more than anything on YouTube. Have a look here:

In reply to: Wordfence Security No Picture UploadWordfence Security support is here:
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordfenceYou are going to need their level of expertise to help you with this one, so I suggest you close this thread as Resolved and re-post there (after looking at the existing threads there for any solutions).
Good luck with it!

In reply to: Moved wordpress site to main root – can't loginI have used this Codex section many times to correctly do what you are trying to do:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory#Using_a_pre-existing_subdirectory_installThe section is “Using a pre-existing subdirectory install”.
You may want to restore from a backup (database and files) to get you back to where you started.

In reply to: Edit Comment section in Twenty FifteenNot something I’ve done, but I looked through the Plugins Directory, and think you might find something there. Here is the first one that caught my eye:

In reply to: Customizing Top Admin MenuAccording to the Codex, it is called the Admin Bar.
This search seems to point to some interesting plugins (and some not applicable to your need): https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=admin+bar
Never done this, so can’t say more.
