In reply to: htaccess password protect a subfolderI think first you have to force apache to serve the folder request without passing it to WordPress. Do this via the .htaccess in the root of your WordPress installation. This part might be accomplished via the Redirection plugin
Then the folder will not 404 and its .htaccess becomes of effect.

In reply to: new WordPress version installed – how connect my old databeseYou’ll need to create manually your wp-config.php file. Or find the old one if you can, perhaps within a backup of your webspace, place it in the correct location.

In reply to: problem with a pageHere’s the other possibility
Redirection plugin basically just creates .htaccess rules, I think. The complicated bit I mentioned above is to write the .htaccess yourself. IOW, Force apache to serve the request without passing it to WordPress.

In reply to: function can't get loadedI think the after_setup_theme is happening well before any browser output occurs, so you won’t see the output echo.
For a try just to confirm your code is run, try get_footer instead …
Also see the plugin API action reference

In reply to: problem with a pageI’m lost too with regard lordzden comment, and I almost know what I’m doing ;|
By default, WordPress simply does not let you “get into” .html pages outside the WordPress installation. Like I wrote above, it’s complicated to make happen.
You want a totally blank page?, I wouldn’t know why but it’s no matter.
- Make a new page in WordPress
- Note the page ID (hover over it’s edit link and see the number at the end of the line in the browser status bar) For example let’s say the ID is 321
- Install one of the custom css plugins noted above
- try the following css in the plugin
body.page-id-321{display:none;}You want it to have html code ? … Put following code in the WordPress text editor for the page:
<div class="display-me"> <p>Hello World!</p> </div>then use the following custom css in the plugin:
body.page-id-321 {display:none;} body.page-id-321 .display-me {display:block;}Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Display Full Post not Title in CategoriesYou are welcome. My thanks to @alchymyth for possibly having spotted my pastebin error, and chiming in.
If unintended file mods turn up as a problem later, you can always replace file with a copy from the original theme.zip package.
PS
Theme files are not core files, strictly speaking. And didn’t you write your Canvas theme “it is a child theme” ? You should be good to go…PPS
Here’s some Custom CSS (minimally tested) to try for your one-column category page layout:.archive.category .post { width: 100%; margin-right: 0px; } .archive.category .post:nth-of-type(2n) { float: left; }Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Post and Page shared slugsYou are welcome. Glad you figured it out. If you check the slugs carefully you likely will find the one created second will have -1 or -2 or something extra at the end…

In reply to: CSS wanted for basic tweaking of 2011 via header.phpMost any CSS modification can to some extent corrupt existing responsive behavior.
When working with the WordPress default themes it is highly recommended to utilize child themes.
Seems to me you’re trying to create something less robust than several already existing solutions. Namely, custom CSS plugins. Have you tried any of these?

In reply to: Links disappeared from my homepageAppears OK to me on widescreen monitor. And when I view on tablet I see the “mobile menu” as the word Menu upper right. Have you tried click the Menu? I think it is supposed to be like that!

In reply to: Can't edit category descriptionYou are welcome. Bottom line right now, there’s some inline styling that controls the appearance of your category description and we need to figure out where it comes from so we can override it with the styling you want.
<div class="archive-description"> <p style="text-align: justify;">Kegel balls blah blah</p> <p style="text-align: justify;">So why the big secret? blah blah</p> </div>The Super Cache plugin may be complicating the issue, I would say clear its cache and then disable while troubleshooting.
The theme author(s) likely are most qualified to be of most assistance.
I’m out of time for a while. Good luck!

In reply to: Can't update posts (only pages) version 4.2Seems perhaps you do not have sufficient administrative authority on your site since you cannot update WordPress version.
Are you the author of the posts you can’t edit?
What is your user role?
Please include a link to your site as well.

In reply to: Post and Page shared slugsAs far as I know, it is not possible to use the same slug more than once. You probably are safe enough in attempting to do so.

In reply to: problem with a pageIt usually is rather complicated to have .html pages outside your WordPress installation.
Another approach would be to have the page within WordPress, and then hide everything via CSS within a child theme or within a custom CSS plugin
