 * By default, WordPress doesn’t provide the gallery functionality you describe.
   This means it’s added either by a plugin or a theme (themes often add many advanced
   features to the admin panel, they’re not just a pretty skin for the front of 
   your site).
 * In your case, it looks like it’s the theme. In fact, in the support comments 
   on the page you linked [the very latest post is from a person with the same issue](http://themeforest.net/item/core-minimalist-photography-portfolio/240185/comments?page=398&filter=all#comment_10346083),
   and as you can see the theme author recommends upgrading to the latest theme 
   version to fix it.
 * Hope that helps 🙂

 * Alright, looks like you’re using WooCommerce for your shop, so you can use this
   shortcode to show products wherever you need to:
 * `[recent_products per_page="3" columns="3" orderby="rand" order="rand"]`
 * The next question is how exactly the categories got on to your homepage and how
   to replace them. It looks like you’re using a plugin called Meta Slider, but 
   it’s not actually a slideshow layout so I’m not 100% sure why that’s being used.
 * Personally I’d skip the slider and just insert the above shortcode directly into
   your homepage wherever you want the products to appear.
 * Did you manage to solve the “Archiwa” issue? It seems to be fixed already but
   I might just be looking at the wrong category page.

 * No problem at all. If there is an issue with your .htaccess files on multiple
   sites your host will hopefully be able to tell you what caused it. Good luck!

 * When you say “didn’t work”, do you mean the CSS worked but it didn’t solve your
   problem or that the CSS I gave you didn’t actually take effect?
 * If the latter, try just adding !important like so before we try anything else:
 *     ```
       img.popup {
         padding-top: 0px !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * If it’s the former, and preventing the logo from moving didn’t solve your problem,
   can you let me know what sort of device you’re viewing the site on?
 * Thanks.

 * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/different-width-of-footers-footers-id/#post-6239886)
 * Almost there, :first-child is actually a valid selector but sadly :second-child
   is not.
 * Try just applying the new width to all footer columns, and then overriding for
   the last column. It’s important that the code for the last column comes _after_
   the code for all columns, like this:
 *     ```
       .footer-column {
         width: 35%;
       }
   
       .footer-column:last-child {
         width: 26%;
       }
       ```
   
 * If you’re still having trouble and adding !important doesn’t help as in the example
   above, see if you can get a demo site up live anywhere. I’m happy to help with
   CSS issues but often the solution is very specific to the site so the above code
   is a little bit “general”. Hopefully it helps!

 * You’d need to access your site files through either your hosting control panel
   file browser, or FTP (the first way is easiest if you’re not familiar with FTP).
 * In the wp-content directory of your site, look for any files or folders with 
   cache in the name and rename them. Don’t delete them, just in case, just renaming
   should be enough to get everything working again.

 * Ok I found a thread from a few years ago that is full of people having the same
   confusion with Wild West Domains telling them to renew through WordPress. You
   can see that thread here: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/renew-domain-name](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/renew-domain-name)
 * Self-hosted WordPress, downloaded from wp.org, has absolutely nothing to do with
   domain registration. However, wp.com does offer domain registration and as you
   can see from the last post in that thread, this is apparently what caused the
   confusion for at least one person.
 * So the question becomes, have you at any point had an account on wp.com rather
   than wp.org, and is that where you bought the domain? If so, and that’s the account
   you’re unable to access, it’d be worth going through [wp.com support ](https://en.support.wordpress.com/help-support-options/)
   as that’s a different thing entirely to this forum.

   files in wp-content as in Jerry’s reply above?

 * You’re very welcome!

   plugin developer know about the issue and hopefully it can be resolved.

 * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/remove-single-post-title-from-blog-page-not-just-post-page/#post-6258457)
 * Hi
 * The absolute easiest way to do this is probably to just hide the titles with 
   CSS. It looks like your theme supports post formats, so I’d recommend setting
   each of these image posts to a particular format that you’re not using for anything
   else (e.g. gallery) and then you can add CSS to hide the titles like so:
 *     ```
       article.format-gallery .post-title-wrapper {
         display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * That should hide it on all pages and you won’t need the Hide Title plugin.
 * You can either add the CSS through your theme’s custom CSS setting field if it
   has one, or use [a custom CSS plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-custom-css/).

 * The easiest way to get WordPress to do most things if you’re not too experienced
   with coding yourself is to look for a plugin. I did a quick search and found 
   the [Soundy Background Music](https://wordpress.org/plugins/soundy-background-music/)
   plugin, which I’ve not personally used but looks up to date and popular enough.
 * The plugin page includes instructions on [how to install](https://wordpress.org/plugins/soundy-background-music/installation/)
   and set it up, hopefully that should be everything you’re looking for.

 * Hi
 * Trackbacks don’t come with a username or email as they’re actually links from
   another site, they’re not added via the comment form. This also means they don’t
   go through your captcha, so no need to worry that it’s not working.
 * You can choose to publish a trackback you’ve recieved, in which case the other
   blog owner gets a link to their site in your comments section, or you can delete/
   spam it in which case they get nothing.
 * Since you’ve disabled trackbacks that’s probably problem solved, but here’s a
   good article explaining what they’re all about: [http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/what-why-and-how-tos-of-trackbacks-and-pingbacks-in-wordpress/](http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/what-why-and-how-tos-of-trackbacks-and-pingbacks-in-wordpress/)

 * Hi
 * Are the galleries a feature of your theme, or provided by a plugin? If they’re
   a part of your theme, then I’d recommend first turning off all plugins briefly
   just to rule out those being the problem.
 * There seem to be a few themes called “Core” so a link to the specific theme would
   be helpful in debugging any further, however if it’s a premium theme and the 
   galleries are one of the features you may be better off contacting the theme 
   developer’s support as they’ll know the ins and outs better than we do.

 * Hi there
 * Looks like your site is down at the moment (it’s giving me a blank white page).
   Please post back when it’s up and running again and I’ll take a look at those
   issues for you.
