In reply to: Floating text and pics on same lineSo the span style is bad advice?
The css
floatproperty often doesn’t work out correctly when in the visual editor. Usealigninstead offloat.To learn what is going on with the visual editor, switch to the text editor to see the code it created.
For alignment on the same line
This is where you need to learn about wrapping your h2 in a span , just as one example.
The other tricky thing about either editor, it puts in p and br tags that are “invisible”. To really learn html / css, do it not in WordPress editor.

In reply to: Unknown possible phishing link?EDITED: Sorry for any duplicate information, Tara posted while I was writing
The link appears to be a WordPress link:
As my site has recently had malware on it, I am leery of providing this information.
The malware itself, or your removal of malware, if in fact it has been accomplished, appears also to have removed part of your WordPress as well. That’s likely why the link is coming up is just WordPress trying to put back some parts it thinks are missing.
However, since your site can be viewed at http://www.treeswithfruit.com/ it probably doesn’t need to run the install again.
I think at this point I would assume the malware still is present and go through the “official” removal procedures.
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: When does WP site go live if replacing another web builder?You are welcome,
Seems perhaps a question for ipower. Depending on your host company and your account, it often is possible to leave the old site in place while you build the new site. And then do the switchover when you are ready.

In reply to: Can't add/edit pages, posts, menu, etc…Have you recently done any version upgrade? Also maybe try with no plugins active and theme TwentyFifteen in place?

In reply to: Allow users to submit posts and have an own profileYou are welcome
No plugin needed, it is a native functionality. Under Dashboard > Settings > General > Membership, check the box “Anyone can register”.
Also “New User Default Role” will have to be set appropriately, likely to “author”.

In reply to: WordPress Unable to Update to WordPress 4.2.2Assuming everything was OK prior to the upgrade, likely I would do a manual version downgrade by adjusting the manual upgrade procedure.

http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress_Extended
And remember, any instruction from the codex not necessarily applies to brandoo, it is a whole another animal.
Today I recieved a security alert from Microsoft to update to 4.2.2.Hmmm…
Good Luck

In reply to: Custom Sort Taxonomies (Not in Menu or Category list)You are welcome,
order=ASCis just the first example in the codex. Get in there and find theorderbythat you need:http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_Parameters
global $query_string; query_posts( $query_string . '&orderby=X&order=Y' );And note using
query_posts()is just one possibility. Depending how your queries are set up you might want to use WP_query() instead (instantiate a second query instead of modify the original).:$args = array( 'orderby' => 'X', 'order' => 'Y', ); $my_new_query = new WP_Query( $args );Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WordPress Unable to Update to WordPress 4.2.2Sorry to hear your WordPress is not quite right.
Have you tried enabling debug output? http://codex.wordpress.org/WP_DEBUG
Here is what else available here so far: https://wordpress.org/search/brandoo?forums=1
Because Brandoo WordPress ( http://wordpress.brandoo.pl/ ) is a significantly different package than the WordPress.org package supported here, you might have better results on https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home
for examples:

In reply to: Transfer issueswhen I type in my URL it tries to download a file,
Yes, it appears no php enabled on your host, try ask your host company…
Also ask them about all this:
And all of that assumes the DNS all set up correctly. I suspect you first need to check your namservers and dns zones for both domain and make sure the domain resolves to the IP address of the host where the site finally will reside. Good Luck

In reply to: [Sydney] How to create a Sydney Child ThemeI know how to make a child theme, done it before. But the standard method, does nog seem to be working for this theme.
Some theme are written such as not easily to allow child themes.
Also check the codex standard method, it has changed a while back.Please confirm that your child theme is using sydney as the parent, not twentyfifteen.
in style.css use:
Template: sydneyEDITED:

In reply to: Arrows inthat IP … Where is it coming from? Hard-coded in the theme? Hard-coded in .htaccess?
66.226.72.63 only appears in /wp-admin/ ? is that right? Have you improperly edited some core file within /wp-admin/ ? Or maybe filtered in that IP hard-coded instead of a php generated url? grep for 66.226.72.63 !

Be careful with all this, I think it’s mixed up mis-written with home and siteurl reversed:
‘wpurl’ – Displays the “WordPress address (URL)” set in Settings > General. This data is retrieved from the “siteurl” record in the wp_options table. Consider echoing site_url() instead, especially for multi-site configurations using paths instead of subdomains (it will return the root site not the current sub-site).

In reply to: Customizer and preview don't workhttp://regalaunmomento.com/wordpress doesn’t work: there’s a 404.
But that is your theme, right? And your site “Regala Un Momento”, right?
What do you see for WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) near the top of dashboard > settings > general ?
