In reply to: Help finding a pluginI found something that looks kind of like what I want called overlay grid – https://sample.contentviewspro.com/?utm_source=wordpress&utm_medium=plugin&utm_campaign=content-views
Not sure if there are others you’d recommend or if there is something free that is similar.

In reply to: How does Google know about your Facebook page?Thanks – so I don’t need a link from my website to my FB page but my FB to my website is all I need? If so I’ve done this but want to make sure.
Thanks!

In reply to: Curious about sitemapThanks – sorry, I know nothing about sitemaps. I think you suggest giving the single sitemap index file. How do I get that?

In reply to: How much does SSL matter?Thank you both for your replies. I’m moving my account off godaddy – they don’t offer free certs and frankly I wasn’t impressed with my site’s speed on their anyways – I was just being lazy.

In reply to: Hiding tagsSo is it OK use the integrated tags or should I leave them blank if I end up trying Yoast?

In reply to: installing WP and then copying data from my old websitePlease disregard – I can see I can just go to the dashboard and apply updates.

In reply to: installing WP and then copying data from my old websiteThe person who created my website had a custom theme – not one of the defaults e.g Twenty Fifteen or Twenty Nineteen. He added plugins – such as Form Maker and Yoast SEO – so when I say custom I mean – when you install WP – you don’t have pictures of people in your company, it doesn’t tell you about your company it says something like hello world. So imagine this was a new computer and you wanted your documents copied over that you created. You resume isn’t a default document – it is one you created.
Maybe my situation isn’t clear. 3 years ago someone started developing a webpage for me in wordpress. It was developed in an old version of wordpress. It is in a subolder on my godaddy account called blogtmp. I’ve updated all the content such as the home page, about me, contact stuff etc. I’ve installed wordpress in chron – latest version which is at the root of my public_html. I could just copy the entire blogtmp subdirectory to the root but that will overwrite any newer wordpress code (i’m guessing). Are there subdirectories in wordpress – e.g. wp-content\themes\custom I should copy over to the new root structure and others that I should not.
I do not know enough about wordpress to make my question clearer. I was trying to use duplicator to move it and that plug in doesn’t work on godaddy. The Velvet plugin doesn’t either.

In reply to: installing WP and then copying data from my old websitepictures, content, plugins, themes – anything not already there when you install wordpress.
By default I see 3 wordpress folders in the new setup and the old setup – wp-admin, wp-content and wp-includes. If I should just copy all 3 or just certain parts so I get newer WP files that are required to run WP?
