In reply to: Can't Login to DashboardGreetings
On shared hosting it is sometimes not possible to access any site via the IP address. One solution there is utilize a second domain instead of IP address. It could be just a subdomain of the first. If most parts of the site are working, this likely is not your problem.
Other, I would make sure to clear browser cache, and clear browser cookies.
And disable any caching plugins removing the folder and files via ftp. Even then the plugins may have caching in effect and it may be difficult to clear that without dashboard access.
Good Luck

In reply to: Moving from Free Yola Site to WordPressGreetings…
Seems you’re onto the beginning of the correct method already. Likely you can leave the redirects in place to keep traffic flowing correctly. And make an entry in you local workstation hosts file specifying your registered domain and the hostgator IP address. This hosts entry will override the redirects and allow you to work on the new site.
Good Luck

In reply to: Theme: Twenty Fifteen Removing Mobile Menu and Header ImgYou are welcome,
It’s likely going to be the style.css file. And before you do that, it’s recommended first to implement a child theme https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes … and then edit the child theme style.css not the parent’s.
In the absence of a child theme, another possibility is utilize a custom css plugin like jetpack.

In reply to: [evolve] Menu CustomizationYou are welcome,
The scrolling appears to be implemented via ajax, a relatively complex technology.In the absense of a buult-in customizer, it’s likely best to contact the theme author https://wordpress.org/themes/author/romik84/ or the premium version theme vendor https://theme4press.com/evolve-multipurpose-wordpress-theme/
Good luck

In reply to: WordPress.zip not downloading, just a file folderCatherine, it’s better for you to ask withinin your original topic, this one is resolved. And your issue not exactly the same…
@macmanx

In reply to: Embedding syndacation content with Managed WordPressGreetings
Seems perhaps your domain is through godaddy and you site is through WordPress.com ?
https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ might be helpful.
Good Luck!
You are welcome
I would suggest contact your hosting providor as it is likely they have customized the WordPress install.
Good Luck!

In reply to: Plug in Install from Elegant Themes- needs zip fileGreetings, I’m not really a mac guy, but I use linux which is similar…
Many premium themes consist of two files.zip The main one you get initially, I’ll call it package.zip, usually contains everything including some documentation. Inside, likely there is another, I’ll call it theme.zip …
That being said, after you download to your mac, You’ll want to pay close attention exactly what is happening… One possibility is that the package.zip is unzipped to temporary folder and none of its contents are available to be uploaded to WordPress. In this case you’ll need to extract the package files. Then you should be able to upload the theme.zip
Good luck

In reply to: Website Problems With WordPressI’m not familiar with RAW html plugin nor Visual Builder; they may be confounding my analysis. And possibly also your understanding of WordPress and its visual editor.
I wrote the following example before noting the above. Would suggest try it with those two features disabled or uninstalled:
<?php // /wp-content/themes/verticallogic/page-example.php outputs the "Page" created in dashboard having slug /example/ get_header(); echo '<h1>'; the_title(); // outputs the dashboard "title" echo '</h1>'; echo '<div class="entry-content">'; the_content(); // outputs the visual editor "contents" echo '</div>'; echo '</div>'; // class="main" was opened in header.php get_footer(); ?>Beyond that, I’d need next to see directory listing of /wp-content/themes/verticallogic/

In reply to: Website Problems With WordPressI suspect there is no functions.php … and that index.php is merely a copy of index.html … and all the other files*.php are copies of files*.html … I’m guessing not one single WordPress tag in the entire theme … nor any WordPress plugins activated … a really fine html / js site that just can’t live and breathe inside WordPress (as it has been put there) ?

In reply to: Website Problems With WordPressLawrence, thank you, this has been a wonderful challenge. I think I have it sorted out, alas, only for the worst.
It looks like it is a theme issue.
I believe you are correct, please would you post on pastebin.com your files index.php and functions.php from your theme folder /wp-content/themes/verticallogic/ … And then post the pastbin urls here?
@macmanx Yes, _s would be the a fine choice from the ground up. You up for a quick challenge? Have a good look at the source on all three sites and see if you can figure where I’m going with this on how Lawrence might have gone wrong to begin with?

In reply to: [Page] Page Title repeatedGood Question, Magick
The theme author likely would say the page title is not excess. Also it provides a mechanism where you can have a long title on the page and then something shorter like “home” in the menu.
If you really want it gone, make a child theme: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
And put in the style.css this code:
.page h1.entry-title {display:none;}Or maybe better:
.page .entry-header {display:none;}Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Possible to hide a published Post without a password?Remember the old saying? “Can’t have your cake and eat it too”
If the post is hidden with no password, how else will the people with no account be able to review it?
If you give them an account they can easily log on and “preview” any “draft”
