In reply to: Mac/Safari knocks main menu nav bar text into slider below.Eric,
I think if you reduce the left/right padding slightly in line 1229 from 1.429em to a little less this should help things stay on one line better if that’s a possibility. Hope that helps. Below is where you’d make the change.
.x-navbar .x-nav>li>a { float: none; padding: 0 1.429em; line-height: 1; font-weight: 500; letter-spacing: 2px; text-decoration: none; color: #B7B7B7; }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: I can't create any links on my siteMichael,
I’ve not come across this issue yet. But perhaps try deactivating all the plugins on your site that are currently running. See if you can then add links as you normally would. If this works, then try activating the plugins again one by one to see if perhaps one of them may be causing a conflict. Hope that helps troubleshoot the issue you’re experiencing.

In reply to: disable related videos in auto-embed YouTubeHi Bodhi,
You can try to follow this tutorial on disabling related videos, however in my experience these kinds of solutions don’t last forever, and Goggle(YouTube) eventually rework therir code so that these will be overwritten. Just something to keep in mind, but hope this helps with what you’re after for the time being.

It could be caused by the a plugin as you mentioned. Do you have a link to your site or page(s) where you are seeing this issue? Might be helpful for troubleshooting the issue better. Thanks.

In reply to: Problem with pagination "page 2" takes me to index.phpIf pagination is enabled for the post type, you may just need to go to permalinks and resave the permalinks to flush them out? Hope that helps.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: permalinkThis could be a conflict with a plugin on your site. You may want to try and disable all plugins and activating one at a time to see if that may be causing an issue.
Also if you’re using a plugin for SEO, check the setting of the plugin, sometimes SEO plugins have a checkbox to rewrite slug/page titles if they feel some words are irrelevant or should be removed based on what they determine to be best practices. Hope one of these two possibilities helps resolve the issue.

In reply to: WordPress DB pulling from old demo DBIt seems as though perhaps what you need to do is search the db and replace your local url with the live site url? Sounds like you may have missed a step in the migration process, I’d reference this page to see if that might be the issue?

In reply to: How to add a page and form to an existing siteIf you’re site is already using a forms plugin, you might be able to add/create additonal forms for the survey you’re trying to create?
Or perhaps you may want to try this plugin for creating polls/surveys? https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-polls/
Lastly their are services like survery money or polldaddy that might be worth looking into as well.
Hope this helps.

In reply to: Do i need to add a robots.txt fileTo the first part that is correct.
I’m not familiar with the plugin you’re using, so I’m not entirely sure what exactly is or isn’t happening. Perhaps the file is hidden file on you’re server, in which case you may want to check with your specific host to see if they can help you locate the file?

In reply to: Site SpeedIt’s possible they have a slower internet connection. There are quite a few caching plugins available in the plugin repository and tools for image optimization as well if the site uses a lot of images.
Caching Plugin –> https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/
Image Optimization Plugin –> https://wordpress.org/plugins/ewww-image-optimizer/
There are also many other tools, these were just two that came to mind. Hope this helps a bit.

In reply to: Force New member Upload PicForcing members to upload a profile pic is a little more advanced. But if you’d like to have a field available for users to upload profile pics without using Gravatar you might want to check out this plugin to have the field available for users. Hope this helps with some of the issue.
