 * Hey again, sorry for the delayed response. It seems like all the dropdown menus
   are functioning correctly now! Were you able to find a resolution, or do you 
   know what may have fixed the underlying issue?

 * Hi [@cookingkatielady](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cookingkatielady/)!
   I took a look at your site and also experienced the issue with “By Course” not
   expanding properly. After poking around for a bit, I noticed that the sections(
   Breakfast, Main Course, etc) are all being loaded into the page, they just aren’t
   being shown when you hover over that menu item. That’s an important distinction
   because if the elements didn’t exist on the page at all that might mean it’s 
   a different issue.
 * I took a look at the styling for the theme you’re using, and I noticed it has
   the following lines:
 *     ```
       #nav-wrapper .vtmenu .menu-item-has-children:hover > .sub-menu {
           visibility: visible;
           opacity: 1;
           transform: translateY(0);
       }
       ```
   
 * That is styling which effectively says “if this menu item has children (subpages),
   make it visible when the user hovers over it”. When I load your webpage, I see
   the following (some links removed to save space):
 *     ```
       <ul role="menu" class="sub-menu">
       	<li id="menu-item-6554" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-6554 dropdown"><a href="#">By Course <span class="caret"></span></a>
       	<ul role="menu" class="sub-menu">
       		<li id="menu-item-6558" ><a href="https://cookingkatielady.com/category/breakfast/">Breakfast</a></li>
       		<li id="menu-item-6571" ><a href="https://cookingkatielady.com/category/snacks-and-appetizers/">Snacks & Appetizers</a></li>
               ...
       	</ul>
       </li>
       	<li id="menu-item-6555" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-has-children menu-item-6555 dropdown"><a href="#">By Method <span class="caret"></span></a>
       	<ul role="menu" class="sub-menu">
       		<li id="menu-item-6557" ><a href="https://cookingkatielady.com/category/air-fryer/">Air Fryer</a></li>
       		<li id="menu-item-6559" ><a href="https://cookingkatielady.com/category/crock-pot/">Crock Pot</a></li>
               ...
       	</ul>
       </li>
       	<li id="menu-item-6556" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-has-children menu-item-6556 dropdown"><a href="#">By Diet <span class="caret"></span></a>
       	<ul role="menu" class="sub-menu">
       		<li id="menu-item-6563" ><a href="https://cookingkatielady.com/category/high-protein/">High Protein</a></li>
       		<li id="menu-item-6566" ><a href="https://cookingkatielady.com/category/low-carb/">Low Carb</a></li>
               ...
       	</ul>
       </li>
       </ul>
       ```
   
 * Note that both the “By Method” and “By Diet” sections have the `menu-item-has-
   children` class, but “By Course” does not! I actually tried adding that `class`
   to the “By Course” section on the page for myself locally and it worked exactly
   as expected.
 * All that to say, I think it might be because there is something misconfigured
   with the “By Course” menu item. Do you mind checking in the nav menu settings
   to ensure it looks exactly like the other two (currently working) sections? This
   can be found under Appearance > Menus > (your navbar menu name).
 * Hope this helps!

 * Hi [@digitalrenewal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/digitalrenewal/)! If
   you’re hoping to change this setting _in general_, it looks like there are a 
   few plugins you can use to accomplish that: [How to Disable Image Attachment Pages in WordPress](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-disable-image-attachment-pages-in-wordpress/).
   Alternatively, it sounds like you’re just trying to change the text within every
   post which follows a particular pattern (e.g. from `/attachments/image1.png` 
   to `/media/image1.png`). You can accomplish this by performing a find-and-replace
   on your posts, see this guide for some ideas: [How to Search and Replace Text in WordPress](https://firstsiteguide.com/search-and-replace-wordpress-text/).

 * Hi [@thilipdonmax29](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thilipdonmax29/)! According
   to the [WP_Query documentation around taxonomy queries](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_query/#taxonomy-parameters),
   it looks like the `relation` field says the following:
 * >  The logical relationship between each inner taxonomy array when there is more
   > than one. Possible values are ‘AND’, ‘OR’. Do not use with a single inner taxonomy
   > array.
 * In the query you supplied, your value for `relation` is `IN` (which does not 
   appear to be one of the allowed values) and additionally you are using it with
   a single inner taxonomy array. I would recommend removing the `relation` mapping
   altogether for this search.
 * Additionally, in the inner taxonomy array you’re also using `'operator' => 'OR'`.
   The documentation for `operator` states:
 * >  Operator to test. Possible values are ‘IN’, ‘NOT IN’, ‘AND’, ‘EXISTS’ and ‘
   > NOT EXISTS’. Default value is ‘IN’.
 * It does not appear that `OR` is an allowed option there either, so I’d recommend
   removing that parameter as well. Hope that helps!

   [the WP Bakery support center](https://support.wpbakery.com/) so the plugin’s
   developers and support community can help you with this.

 * Hi [@avantiprodu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/avantiprodu/)! You should
   be able to enable autoplay on the video by adding `?autoplay=1` to the end of
   the URL you’re using. I believe you can also prevent sound from playing by adding`&
   mute=1` to the end (for instance, the URL would go from `https://youtu.be/60LTFThRwHM`
   to `https://youtu.be/60LTFThRwHM?autoplay=1&mute=1`. Here are some guides that
   might help:
    - [Autoplay and Loop YouTube Videos in WordPress](https://www.boldgrid.com/support/page-builder/autoplay-and-loop-youtube-videos-in-wordpress/)
    - [Easily Embed Youtube Videos in WordPress (and Autoplay in High Definition!)](http://www.emediacoach.com/tutorials/easily-embed-youtube-videos-in-wordpress-and-autoplay-in-high-definition/)
 * Unfortunately it may be the case that YouTube videos won’t autoplay on mobile.
   You may need to upload a video directly into WordPress in order to get it to 
   autoplay on mobile. Hope this helps!

 * Hi [@kzeni](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kzeni/)! I’m currently one of
   the maintainers on the Openverse project 🙂 We’ve actually had some movement 
   and interest in adding Openverse as an option when inserting media via a Gutenberg
   block in the core editor, you can [check out the issue here](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/44496)!
 * On the API front, yes we do allow anonymous usage but encourage folks to register
   an Oauth application for more extended use. Registered applications have higher
   limits as you’ve noted, and we do have the option to alter those limits depending
   on the application (please do reach out to us at [openverse@wordpress.org](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aetherunbound/replies/openverse@wordpress.org?output_format=md)
   if you’d like to discuss your application and its use!). We’ve had to scale back
   the request rate for anonymous usage in the last few months due to [some out of terms usage that was impacting service performance for all users](https://make.wordpress.org/openverse/2022/06/17/mitigating-out-of-terms-api-usage/).
   Additionally, results are currently [limited to 20 pages for both anonymous and authorized users](https://make.wordpress.org/openverse/2022/08/11/openverse-api-results-constrained-to-20-pages/)
   in order to reduce impact on the stability of our search services.
 * You also mentioned that you were able to get more than 5 requests within an hour;
   this may be due to page caching we perform at the [CDN layer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_delivery_network).
   Since “grass” is a fairly common search term, those pages might have been recently
   rendered and served from the cache, thus preventing them from being subjected
   to the anonymous rate limit.
 * Thanks for your continued interest in the Openverse project, we hope that we 
   can continue to provide the community with useful, impactful, and easily searchable
   openly-licensed media!

 * Hi [@stephenetta](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stephenetta/)! Taking a
   look at the source code, it appears that this error is thrown when a user does
   not have `edit_posts` permissions: [https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_oembed_controller/get_proxy_item_permissions_check/](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/classes/wp_oembed_controller/get_proxy_item_permissions_check/).
   Can you confirm that you have that permission for the post you’re trying to add
   an embed to?
 * It seems that this may also be a misleading error, since that response is always
   shown when you try to visit the proxied URL in the browser ([see the “Side Note” section on this issue](https://github.com/bobbingwide/oik/issues/158)).
   You also mention that you are getting a 404 on an IG embed – `url=` link doesn’t
   appear to exist for me, which may be the underlying issue (especially since we
   see the same 401 error for an address like yahoo.com). Can you double check the
   Instagram URL you’re trying to embed?
 * Lastly, I notice this note on [the WordPress embeds documentation](https://wordpress.org/support/article/embeds/):
 * >  Facebook and Instagram: Due to Facebook’s decision to close the oEmbed end
   > point for embedding Facebook and Instagram links, the block will not work anymore
   > after October 24, 2020. To embed Facebook and Instagram links into your site,
   > you need a developer account and an appid, and provide an authentication token
   > with their call to the endpoint. Refer to the Facebook Documentation.
 * You may also be running into that as the issue. Let us know if any of this helps!

   guides that you could go back afterwards and change it to an entirely different
   domain. Glad you were able to find the fix!

 * Hi [@gillespieza](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gillespieza/)! It seems
   like there are a number of places that this could go awry unfortunately. One 
   appears to be a possible discrepancy between `DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE` and the record
   in the `wp_blogs` table. Do you mind checking to confirm that these values are
   the same? Here’s a [quick description on how to do that](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/175728/redirect-loop-only-for-multisite-network-admin),
   and a [more thorough guide for checking all locations to ensure the URLs are correct](https://wpengine.com/support/how-to-change-a-multi-site-primary-domain/#Update_Database).
   Hopefully this helps, but let us know if these values are all ready consistent
   and have the protocol where necessary!

 * Hi [@godlich](https://wordpress.org/support/users/godlich/)! While researching
   your question I came across this article: [Running WordPress Behind SSL and NGINX Reverse Proxy](https://blog.ldev.app/running-wordpress-behind-ssl-and-nginx-reverse-proxy/).
   In it they share a similar setup to yours. There are a few things they have defined
   in their nginx config that I notice are different from yours:
 * 1. `ssl on` – it appears that this was [made obselete with the ssl parameter of the “listen” directive](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssl_module.html#ssl).
   You have that parameter defined already so that should be good!
    2. `proxy_set_header
   X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;` – I noticed that this is missing from the `location`
   declaration within the first nginx config in your post (although it does appear
   to be present in your test.bardhome.de example later in the post). Do you mind
   trying to add that to the configuration and see if that resolves your issue? 
   According to the post, that appears to be what `wp-config.php` is looking for
   when setting HTTPS link referencing:
 *     ```
       if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO']) && $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'] === 'https') {
         $_SERVER['HTTPS'] = 'on';
       }
       ```
   
 * Hopefully that second point addresses your issue, but if not please let us know!

 * Thanks! You can hopefully intercept the JSON that’s being sent by using your 
   browser’s “developer tools”. Here are guides for how to do that:
    - [Chrome](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/devtools/network/)
    - [Firefox](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/Network_Monitor/request_list)
 * When you try and save the widget (or whatever causes the error to pop up), you
   should see a new request go through. We’re looking for the “response body” of
   the request to see what it is sending. Let me know if you have any more questions
   on how to try and capture that info!
