Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Adding to a StylesheetIf you are trying to code HTML/CSS, it would probably be a good idea to get a good understanding of them.
There are lots of guides available, here is one for CSS:

In reply to: Adding to a StylesheetThe best way to make changes like this to a theme is to use a child theme, so your tweaks won’t be overwritten when updating the theme. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:

In reply to: Website not loading and wp-admin not loadingYou may also want to contact GoDaddy and see if they can help.

In reply to: Website not loading and wp-admin not loadingIt looks to me like a hack, but not sure. Do you have a backup of your site on GoDaddy (hopefully) that you can restore?
Remain calm and carefully follow this guide. When you’re done, you may want to implement some (if not all) of the recommended security measures.

In reply to: Website not loading and wp-admin not loadingeventually gives an error
What was the error message?
Also what theme are you using and do you have a child-theme?Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Website not loading and wp-admin not loadingTry manually resetting your plugins (no Dashboard access required). If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.
If that does not resolve the issue, access your server via FTP or SFTP, navigate to
/wp-content/themes/and rename the directory of your currently active theme. This will force the default theme to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: contact form 7 showing code on web pageI have used Fast Secure Contact Form, it works well.

In reply to: contact form 7 showing code on web pageShould be working. Try a new basic contact form to see if that works and then build from there. I presume the plugin is active.

In reply to: contact form 7 showing code on web pageYou need to place that code on the page using the TEXT editor, not the visual editor.

In reply to: Access to wp-adminIt doesn’t look like that domain even exists. It shows as available to be purchased. Are you sure that you have it typed correctly?

In reply to: Google Fonts not loading properlyYou won’t see the google fonts in your editor, just assign another WP font and change it in the text editor. That seems to be the only limitation to using the enqueue script.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Google Fonts not loading properlyHere is another way to add google fonts without the use of a plugin or anything else. Place this snippet in your child theme “functions.php” file. Replace FONT1|Font2 with your fonts. Notice there is a pipe | separating the fonts.
// Add Google Font add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_google_font' ); function my_google_font() { wp_enqueue_style( $handle = 'my-google-font', $src = 'http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=FONT1|Font2', $deps = array(), $ver = null, $media = null ); }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Login in TroubleIf you have cpanel hosting, you should be able to access it through there.
