In reply to: Moving WP from TLD to Subdomain?Sorry for the delayed reply… but it all seems to be working fine except your header image which is still calling for ZachKidd.com instead of me.zachkidd.com
Other than that the links work great.
Yeah Database transfer is something else. Quite easy once you get the hang of it though!

In reply to: Moving WP from TLD to Subdomain?No problem 🙂
Other than the URLs, it should be a straight forward migration. Thankfully WordPress makes it very easy for us.

In reply to: Sub Menu link same colour as menu. How to fix?There are built-in CSS classes for your current rendered page as well as the parent of your current rendered page.
Take a look at:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu#Current-Page_Parent_Menu_ItemsYou could set it up like this:
.current-menu-item { color: green } .current-menu-parent { color: green } .current-menu-parent.current-menu-item { color: white; font-weight: bold }When your current page is a child of a menu item, it will be styled differently.

In reply to: Moving WP from TLD to Subdomain?When migrating to a different server and / or (sub-)domain there are a few extra steps needed to make sure everything shows up.
Most of your page and post URLs are stored inside the database. This means that when you move your WordPress installation, it will still refer to the old URLs.
So let’s say you have a contact page. The URL would probably be: yourdomain.com/contact.When you move your WordPress installation to a different domain, in your case subdomain.yourdomain.com, your installation will still look for: yourdomain.com/contact instead of subdomain.yourdomain.com/contact.
To solve this I’ll refer you to the following article in the Codex:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress#Changing_Your_Domain_Name_and_URLs
You can either refresh the URLs yourself or use one of the three options listed there 🙂 (I recommend using one of the three options)

There is an option in your toolbar that enables the sub-toolbar.
Click that and you’ll get extra options.

In reply to: How to install wordpress with existing wp-content and ddbb?When migrating, or in your case cloning a database, to a different server and / or domain there are a few extra steps needed to make sure everything shows up.
Most of your page and post URLs are stored inside the database, so when you copy over the database from your client’s site you’ll get his URLs. To solve this I’ll refer you to the following article in the Codex:

You can either refresh them yourself or use one of the three options listed there 🙂
