sorry have been off for the day.

To remove the register link you need to add this line to the function:

$wp_admin_bar->remove_menu(‘bp-register’);

Hey there,

if the domain is exactly the same it should work like you thought:

1) copy all wp-contents to the fresh install
2) point to the old db using wp-config

WordPress dashicons are not loaded in the frontend when you’re logged out by default. To load them manually you can add this code to your functions.php file of your child theme:

add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_dashicons_frontend' );
/**
 * Enqueue Dashicons style for frontend use */
function enqueue_dashicons_frontend() {
if (! is_admin()) {
wp_enqueue_style( 'dashicons' );
}
}

For SEO I’d recommend you to get a Plugin like Yoast SEO or All in One SEO which allows editing page descriptions, titles and some more in regards to search engines.

Hi paul,

actually the site should have become faster with the update to php7 🙂
Looking at the waterfall of your site (f12 key for devtools -> network) your first request the browser is waiting for 14000 milliseconds / 14 secs – the reasons for that long wait can be various but this is likely a misconfigured/default configured php7, so checking your php.ini and maybe apache/nginx config should shed some light.

Maybe you’ll have some hints in your servers error logs which will surely help narrowing it down.

Oh and for mysql I’d recommend at least version 5.7 and if you have the possibility use mariadb.

Hi,

reasons this could occur:

– some threshold limit of your provider exceeded (e.G. disk space is full or to many files)
– folder permissions have changed for some reason
– an error occurs while uploading (you should be able to find more on that in the servers error logs)

You can set WP_DEBUG constant to true in your wp-config.php file and check if it outputs any hints about errors while the upload happens.

I don’t think this is caused by a plugin, this rather sounds like some heavy misconfiguration on the Server itself.

Your best bet would be to contact the sites hosting provider and let them know that WordPress is unable to do outgoing http requests and also missing some php modules.

They should be able to verify the configuration and guide you through.

Best,
Seb
