This is one way you could do it with the default WordPress Twenty Thirteen theme: * ```

If you can find `show_home` in your theme, then you can modify that( probably) where ever it is. If not, then disregard my answer. 🙂 * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Remove word HOME from Menu Bar and change to Welcome](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-word-home-from-menu-bar-and-change-to-welcome/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-word-home-from-menu-bar-and-change-to-welcome/#post-4177242) * In the Twenty Eleven theme functions.php, change line 379 from: * ``` $args['show_home'] = true; ``` * to: * ``` $args['show_home'] = 'Welcome'; ``` * To show the change in context, here’s the same change, but showing the entire method. * Change: * ``` function twentyeleven_page_menu_args( $args ) { if ( ! isset( $args['show_home'] ) ) $args['show_home'] = true; return $args; } ``` * to: * ``` function twentyeleven_page_menu_args( $args ) { if ( ! isset( $args['show_home'] ) ) $args['show_home'] = 'Welcome'; return $args; } ``` * Note: This won’t work on all themes, but will on Twenty Eleven. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare()](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-argument-2-for-wpdbprepare-26/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-argument-2-for-wpdbprepare-26/#post-4176257) * The theme probably needs updating. * wpdb::prepare() requires a minimum of 2 arguments as of WordPress 3.5. wpdb:: prepare() now uses parameterized queries, so a second argument is required (in pre-WordPress 3.5 wpdb:prepare() only required one argument). * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Too many SQL queries](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/too-many-sql-queries-1/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/too-many-sql-queries-1/#post-4176689) * I’ve had a bad theme use the wrong hook and create dozens of unnecessary database queries, so you might try a default theme like Twentytwelve or Twentythirteen. I also had great luck with [DB Cache Reloaded Fix](http://wordpress.org/plugins/db-cache-reloaded-fix/) where the standard caching plugins weren’t improving performance as much as I’d hoped. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WP_error messages](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp_error-messages/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp_error-messages/#post-4175680) * Looking at the WP_Error class in core and looking at how WordPress itself uses it, I don’t see a way (other than modify the class itself, which you shouldn’t since it is part of core) that you can do what you want except in instances where you instantiate a WP_Error object yourself. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [RSS feed doesn't show xml, but it show content.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-doesnt-show-xml-but-it-show-content/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-doesnt-show-xml-but-it-show-content/#post-4176166) * As esmi said, it’s best not to modify core files. WordPress uses Magpie to cache feeds for one hour (in wp-includes/rss.php). I will modify it at times when I’m working on a problem with feeds, but unless you need to, it’s best to wait the 60 minutes. The only way to change the cache time (or disable it) is in the core file itself. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Proper Category and Tag base 301 redirection](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/proper-category-and-tag-base-301-redirection/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/proper-category-and-tag-base-301-redirection/#post-4166415) * Yes, it needs to go above any of the WordPress specific htaccess lines. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [RSS feed doesn't show xml, but it show content.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-doesnt-show-xml-but-it-show-content/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rss-feed-doesnt-show-xml-but-it-show-content/#post-4176157) * The feed is cached by WordPress for an hour.
