Thank you!
I have one more question: with the toggle method, is there a way to have the captcha disappear once the message has successfully been sent? Or is that something I have to do on my end with the contact form itself?
…forgot to note that this topic is now essentially “resolved”
I did not see that opt-out option on the plugin activation before. So, just now, I went to look again.
Please note that the place to opt-out is not at all obvious. The opt-out does not appear in the activation area (I installed the plugin from my WP plugin dashboard). Additionally, when deactivating the plugin, the message that comes up saying that everything to do with the plugin has been erased gives the user a false sense of security.
Please add a message about where to opt in or out of email on your set-up instructions.
Thank you.
Thank you, John. I guessed that it may have been something you didn’t know about and am glad to learn that you have now added an “opt-out” option when the plugin is deactivated.
It might also be a good idea to add a the “opt-out” option when activating the plugin. Alternatively, it could go in the settings area.
Rats. It must be another plugin that is in conflict then. Because it was working correctly for some time.
Because I have only one plugin to do with searching (I think), I thought perhaps it was something to do with Relevanssi.
Thank you for your reply. I will stare some more at the search results template.

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] Theme Check Errors in Twenty TwelveBecause they are not a security risk, that indicates to me that this would not be considered to be a “major issue”. I will refrain from creating a ticket.
I just hope that if the WP developers do decide to stop maintenance on twenty twelve, there will be plenty of warning.

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] Theme Check Errors in Twenty Twelvere:
As far as I know all the WordPress themes from the Twenty family group are still maintained.
In view of that, mbrsolution, do you think it would it be inappropriate to fill out a report on the theme? ie: Are the instructions that the theme must not
use <title> tags,call to wp_title(), and the fact thatNo reference to add_theme_support( "title-tag" ) was found in the themeconsidered to be “a major issue”?Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] Theme Check Errors in Twenty TwelveI’m really hoping that the fact that TwentyTwelve is not passing the theme-check because of the following does not mean that it is going to be retired.
REQUIRED: The theme must not use the <title> tags. REQUIRED: The theme must not call to wp_title(). REQUIRED: No reference to add_theme_support( "title-tag" ) was found in the theme.Is this considered to be a “major issue”? Can it be reported?
Knowing only the bare minimum of php coding, I’m only guessing that it would be a relatively easy fix. Would it not just require an update to the header.php and functions.php in the twentytwelve folder? Or am I being naive?

In reply to: [WP-CMS Post Control] add media button missing from post area for editor roleI just re-installed and activated the WP-CMS Post Control plugin.
It turns out that what causes the “add media” button to disappear is checking “remove media upload” in the Advanced Controls of the Plugin for the editor role.
However, this does not take away the ability for a user with the editor role to go into the media area and upload/delete media items there. While the plugin is entitled “post control”, it does seem that if “remove media upload” is checked, then a user with the editor role should not be able to access the media area at all.

In reply to: add media button missing from editorYou are fortunate, Joy. But for others who are searching for how to get the “text/visual” tab to appear because of having the same difficulty, it is an easy thing to check for to see if that is all that is required for that particular fix.
And, just as an extra experiment, I re-installed and activated the WP-CMS Post Control plugin. Note that it did not cause the “text/visual” tab to disappear.
What did cause the “add media” button to disappear was checking “remove media upload” and “remove word count” in the Advanced Controls of the Plugin. I will amend the post I put into the support area for the plugin.
Thank you again for the help you provided.

In reply to: add media button missing from editorI was a little precipitous in saying that everything was fixed. I was so thrilled to see “add media” button that I didn’t notice right away that the text/visual tabs were still missing in the posting area for the editor role.
It turns out that this is a very easy fix:
[T]here’s this silly setting in the User Profile screen. “Disable the visual editor when writing”.
Get there this way: Users => Edit (user with issue) => first option top of screen
I UNCHECKED the box, clicked save, and everything was fixed.

In reply to: add media button missing from editorThe WP-CMS Post Control plugin has not been tested since WP4.5 and was last updated 3 years ago. I have deleted it from my WP. But sure, for what it’s worth, I’ll add a note to the support area for it.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: add media button missing from editorDo you have any plugins that affect the editor or uploads or capabilities, that aren’t on the other site where it is working correctly?
How embarrassing. It appears to be the plugin WP-CMS Post Control: In the Advanced Controls section, I had “remove word count” checked for the editor role; when I unchecked it, everything returned to normal.
Many thanks for helping to lead me to find the culprit.

In reply to: add media button missing from editorYou were supposed to check the upload_files capability, not create_post or edit_post. And the point was to see if what you had matched what the defaults are, to determine if it got changed behind the scenes.
I fear that I have not described things correctly. Please note that the editor role can access the media area, can upload and/or delete media. What is not readily available are editing buttons in the posting area.
Because I have the Classic Editor plugin, the page should like this:
https://wordpress.org/support/article/writing-posts/#post-field-descriptions
And indeed, it does for the Administrator role.However, for the editor role, the “add media” button, and the “Visual” and “Text” tabs are missing for a new post. For posts that have already been published, the formatting buttons are missing as well.
When I disable the Classic Editor plugin, the posting area for the editor role has only a faded circled plus sign at the top left side of the posting area. For the editor role, it does not resemble this at all :
https://wordpress.org/support/article/wordpress-editor/#adding-a-blockJust to be sure, I re-installed and activated the plugin User Role Editor plugin. As expected, the upload_files capability is checked for the editor role. I have once again deactivated and deleted the plugin.
Here’s hoping that this will shed some light on how to resolve this, with the knowledge that it is the posting area for the editor role that is the issue here.

In reply to: add media button missing from editorDoes this mean that you checked using the plugin that the role had correct capabilities (as listed in the docs)? Or that you installed the plugin and tried your test again? (The whole point of the plugin was to see if something had changed the capabilities from what they should be. It was only for temporary usage anyway.)
I did all of these things. I installed the plugin to see that the editor did not have “create post” capabilities, but that the “edit post” was enabled.
I then checked “create post” for the editor and tried again. There was no change at all. I cleared cache after each change. (When there was no fix, I removed the plugin.)
I also, as a test, went into another WP that I am an admin. I created a new user with editor role. Everything is working as expected; the editor is able to edit posts normally.
It’s frustrating to feel compelled to try to reproduce (and/or eliminate) the problem without knowing what on earth is causing it.
The whole reason that I created the editor role was for security reasons: “Create an Editor account and use it solely to publish content (wpsecuritychecklist.org)”.
