In reply to: [Advanced Editor Tools] TinyMCE – Table borders not workingOK you may be right for your issue but it certainly made my image editing/positioning issue go away, and the problem only started after the 1803 upgrade. I think there are a couple of updates to TinyMCE pending but I haven’t seen a date for them yet, one of which addresses an image related issue, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed it will allow me to go back to Edge.

In reply to: [Advanced Editor Tools] TinyMCE – Table borders not workingAre you using the Edge Browser? If you are then I suggest you try using Chrome – I’ve had various problems with the latest versions of WordPress and TinyMCE when using Edge – I guess something changed with the last big Microsoft Update to Win 10. When I reluctantly switched to Chrome the problems went away.

In reply to: [Advanced Editor Tools] Table bug with Edge – plugin needs update to 4.7.13Could you possibly give us an estimate as to when 4.7.13 will be available via WordPress please? I’m using Edge as my default browser and am seeing several of the bugs that are fixed in 4.7.13. Alternatively could you tell me how to upgrade from 4.7.11 to 4.7.13 – sorry to be a pain.

In reply to: Database passwords in wp-configWell blow me down! Brilliant, you’re dead right.
Can I just ask one more question – what does the % sign mean in the Host field when one first gets to the Add new user screen. I had wrongly assumed that since I had anyhost and the % sign was filled in it would be OK, but obviously not.
Thanks for your help.

In reply to: Database passwords in wp-configjhvidyut, I’m not sure what your comments have to do with the problem in the initial post. Would you mind opening your own thread please and not attaching your problem to this post – thank you.You will stand a better chance of getting a relevant answer.

In reply to: Database passwords in wp-configI’ve tried this but I’ll give it another go. I can’t see how to include a picture of the definition so let me describe it – I used a userid of Newuser and a password of Newpassword I left the Anyhost field with the % character in it and I left the tick in the field “Grant all privileges on database “southamlocal”” and “Global Privileges” had a tick in it. The result was
User Host Type Privileges Grant Action
Newuser % global ALL PRIVILEGES Yes Edit Privileges
database-specific ALL PRIVILEGES No Edit PrivilegesI don’t know why Grant was set to “No” in the database-specific line – I have tried changing this to “Yes” but although the change was accepted the “Yes” value made no difference to the problem’ and I still end up with “Error Establishing Database Connection” when trying to access the web site even though phpMyAdmin assures me that Newuser has access to the database “southamlocal”. I’m stumped!

In reply to: Fopen error updating ThemeI resolved this myself in the end but since it is 3 months ago I have forgotten exactly how but I believe it was an issue with WordPress not being able to handle an automatic update of the Avada theme. A manual update of the theme resolved the issue.

In reply to: Fopen error updating ThemeIs there anyone else there who could suggest what this WordPress error message is trying to tell me please?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Fopen error updating ThemeWith all due respect I think you have mis-read what I wrote. I’m not asking for help with Avada, and I’m not asking for help with MAMP – I’m asking for help with an error message from WordPress. The error message I quoted comes up in WordPress and says WordPress could not do something. As it stands the error message is unhelpful since it gives no clue as to why there was a failure in WordPress and therefore what one should do about it. When I was coding it was drummed into us that there was no point saying “an error occurred”! You needed to explain in a decent message exactly what the error was, what the return and reason codes where and if possible an explanation of what to do about it to resolve it – much modern programming seems to fail this basic test.
I would be grateful for an explanation of what this WordPress error message is supposed to be trying to tell me. Thank you.
