In reply to: Menu Not Showing on MobileLooks like this might be a javascript error, which is why it’s not opening or closing as expected looking in Chrome dev tools.

In reply to: copy my web files from web server to my pcSounds like it’s an issue with the host, perhaps there’s a reason that you can’t download everything based on a setting they have in place. I would contact your specific host as they should be able to point you in the right direction or further explain why maybe something can’t be ftp’d down. Hope that helps.

In reply to: Registration spamHi Maxime,
I think most people tend to use Akismet or something like Antispam Bee to reduce spam and fake registrations. Having one of these active should help cut down a fair amount if not almost all spam related issues. Hope one of these helps you out.

In reply to: Receiving backup error & file not being emailedHilary,
Dumb question, but have you updated the plugin? Not sure which backup plugin you are using so I’m not completely sure, but I know I’ve run across a similar issue before and just didn’t realize I hadn’t updated my plugin. Backups are important for sure, so you might want to try and contact the plugin author if the issue persists?

In reply to: Add pop-up login cum registration optionHey,
You might want to try using a modal plugin for the login form such as:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/ajax-bootmodal-login/
or
https://wordpress.org/plugins/simplemodal-login/
and then you could try to add something like this for the social media portion.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/simplemodal-login/
I’m not sure how well these might work together but might be a possible and relatively painless solution if building your own isn’t really an option. Hope this helps get you started.

In reply to: Admin Color Scheme ErrorIf you switch your theme to the default theme and change the color scheme does the issue still show up for you? It’s possible something with your current theme might be causing the conflict with the odd color scheme issue you’re experiencing? That’s my initial thought, see if that might work and then you’ll know if it is or isn’t related to your specific theme.

In reply to: Cannot TURN OFF commentsDina,
There certainly could be something causing an issue with comments either in the theme itself or some other possible conflict. Perhaps you might be interested in checking out this plugin to remove them? I’ve not personally used this plugin, but looks like it’ll do what you’re after and is pretty well rated so definitely might be worth a shot. Hope this helps.

In reply to: Language Selector for our front-end customersI think the easiest way to have multiple languages with just one version of the website would be to use a translation plugin perhaps like this one by Bing?
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bing-translator/
You could create multiple versions of the site in individual languages, however a lot more work is involved in doing that, and this plugin or something similar will likely be the easiest solution for just front end translations.
Hope this helps get you started.

In reply to: View posts ordered by month then by categoryI’ve not personally tried either of these plugins, but they might be viable solutions for you? I would check these out to see if they would help, otherwise it would probably take a bit more work, but definitely could be done. Hope this helps get you started.

Hope this helps get you started and hopefully one of these is a good option for you.

In reply to: Linking my FacebookHey Jason,
It’s a little difficult to tell without a link or looking at your WP Dashboard. Perhaps you’re theme has a theme options/settings page where you can add these links? Alternatively you can look in your widgets to see if it’s a widget area where you might be able to set them. The other option depending on your theme is that these links need to be added via the WordPress Customizer, which if you navigate to appearance, and click the Customize link the options could be there as well. Again providing a link to you site may help provide more information if those three options are not present or do not seem to do the trick for you. Thanks.
