In reply to: How do I customise the browsers tag – depending on contentOk, I found a load of plug-ins and stuff that just was not needed and removed all of them and now.
Now all I need to be able to do is customize each of my custom pages with a custom meta tag description. But most of the meta type plug-ins are not working or do not do what I thought they would do based on their own descriptions!
Can anyone suggest a basic plug-in that adds a new section to the page being edited so I can enter a meta tag description that is saved just for that page.
I am using WP 4.6.3.

In reply to: How do I customise the browsers tag – depending on contentI just added
. “…”
to the end of one of the string variables. hoping that it would add them to the title. But nothing changed.I think I should be asking… can someone do this for me as I have no idea looking at the help files how I do this. Give me code to change I can do it, but making child folders and all that is something that I am not getting right now. I need to know in laymans terms.

In reply to: How do I customise the browsers tag – depending on contentI am using theme twentythirteen, I am wanting to have a different title for each page.

In reply to: Edit default home pageOMG….. I just had another look at the other pages and saw that they were created by a different author than the login we have been given. So what I done was login using the author name and the same password that we were given and I have ‘FULL’ access in wordpress. WOW. Been looking at this for weeks and did not think about it until now. I have now changed main http://www.site.com home page to front page and all works as I want it so the old site is refreshed to the new site’s domain. Hopefully the domain is not renewed and we can register it in our name this time around.
Thank you for the help here as it allowed me to make the change once I got in the right admin area that the original guy had created for himself, even though he used the same password as ours! lol
Thankfully he did.

In reply to: Edit default home pageI can create new pages, but unable to edit exiting page as the content of those pages does not show up in the editor. I have made all pages private and changed the url to them to …old
i.e. http://www.site.com/galleryold
then created a new gallery page with the same link the original page had and then added a meta refresh to the HTML view. This allows me to have the pages that google has indexed redirect to a new domain I have setup.
The problem I have is that I can not edit the existing images with new ones without the new image being saved under a new url. The original site has an image with phone numbers that are old ones and no longer in use and I can not replace them as I can not them edit the page’s original content as it doe snot show up.

In reply to: Edit default home pageNo, the original guy has gone AWOL. No access to anything but dashboard with limited features.

In reply to: Edit default home pageI do not see anything about setting > reading. where is it, I think the guy that setup the site has disabled this.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Edit default home pageAfter reading more around google results, it seems the guy that created the site may have disabled the reading panel.
I tried to add a new page site.com/index.php but it has the leading / after the url and stil the original default page is showing and no way of removing it.

In reply to: Edit default home pageok where do I start. I get a fair amount of work from my domain.
My host has gone AWOL and they also have control of the domain name.
I have managed remove all the pages and re-add them with just a meta refresh so they redirect to a new domain name where I have full control.
But the only page I have a problem in redirecting is the front page as it is called. the http://www.site.com page. http://www.site.com/home/ is refreshing fine, as I can edit that page.
I do not know which theme is being used and do not even know where to look to find this out.
