Anytime a weird issue like this arises it is usually an update to a plugin/theme that is the culprit. On a side note, are you running the most current version of WordPress?

One thing to do is to deactivate your plugins 1-by-1 and see if the issue is resolved. This way if a plugin is causing the issue, you will immediately know which one and can begin troubleshooting from there.

At the most basic level, those would probably be found under the CSS class of “widget-title”. So you could start with something like

.widget-title,
 .ilovewp-post .more-link,
.ilovewp-post .more-link:hover {
    background-color: #ffffff;
    color: #000000;
}

.ilovewp-post .more-link:hover {
   text-decoration: underline;
}

This should turn the box with and the text black. You may need to do more styling to make it look how you want. As far as the Continue Reading button goes, make sure you watch out for that hover.

Hopefully this helps

PS I found the CSS class by using Google Chrome, right clicking the object and clicking Inspect….

Ah.. you beat me

In order to change the front page, you need to go to the Customizer -> Static Front Page. Here you can create or set an already created page to be your front page.

Unless there is any specific reason otherwise, I would set your Permalinks to Post Name. It is just an easier URL for both you and your users.

What kind of user are we talking about? Do you mean a specific person, then you can do it by going to that users profile.

If you mean for a group of users, than you can do so with either a plugin like Remove Dashboard Access or by adding code to your functions.php.

In any case here is a good overall walk through on the various ways to disable the Dashboard https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/limit-access-to-your-wordpress-dashboard/

Next set would be to turn on debugging in your wp-config.php file. By default this is set to false.

This can be found towards the bottom of the file just change define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false); to true.

Then try to upload a photo. This should give you a more descriptive error message

Do you have FTP access? What about cPanel?

My apologies, I miss-read your post. That does make is tricky if you are gambling with losing a licence key.
