 * Hi
 * You could do something like this in place of the code you’ve already tried:
 *     ```
       <?php $category = get_the_category(); ?>
       <a href="<?php echo get_category_link( $category[0]->term_id ); ?>">View similar entries</a>
       ```
   
 * get_the_category() will return an array of all categories, so in this example
   I’ve used only the first result from that array to generate the link since I 
   doubt you’re looking to have multiple “view similar entries” links on posts with
   more than one category.

 * Try:
 *     ```
       .footer-column:last-child {
         width: 26%;
       }
       ```
   
 * That should target the last footer column. If you see no change, try adding !
   important like so:
 *     ```
       .footer-column:last-child {
         width: 26% !important;
       }
       ```

 * Hi Tim
 * This is the Enfold theme from Theme Forest, correct? If so, the theme developer
   actually has a dedicated support forum full of people who know the ins and outs
   of your theme, so I’d recommend asking there.
 * Here’s the direct link to the Enfold section of their forum: [http://www.kriesi.at/support/forum/enfold/](http://www.kriesi.at/support/forum/enfold/)

 * [10 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-trying-to-add-function-to-function-php-using-code-snippet/#post-6250089)
 * This error is happening because there are two functions in your site with the
   same name. One is added through code snippets, from the error message the other
   seems to be in the file at /home/calclaua/public_html/wp-content/plugins/functions.
   php.
 * You’ll need access to your site files either through a file browser in your hosting
   control panel, or FTP. Deleting the fullframe_child_theme_setup() function from
   that functions.php file (or if there’s nothing else in there, deleting the file
   completely) should solve the issue. Remember to take a backup of the file before
   making any changes, just in case, as without knowing the purpose of the file 
   I can’t say what else may be in there and how important it is.

 * I’ve had a go at recreating this on my own 4.2.2 install and couldn’t reproduce
   the issue. This suggests it may be an issue with a plugin or theme in use on 
   your site.
 * The easiest way to verify is to disable all plugins and switch to a default theme(
   like Twenty Fifteen) then add an image and see if the problem persists. If this
   fixes it, you can re-enable everything one by one to find out which plugin is
   causing the issue.
 * If this doesn’t fix the issue, report back and we’ll go from there.

 * One easy way to tell if a comment is spam is to copy/paste the content into a
   Google search. Often you’ll find hundreds of blog comments with the exact same
   text posted by a similar name. You can also look for things like “names” that
   are actually company names or other keywords, commenters who leave links to their
   own site in the text of the comment, etc.
 * Once you’re familiar with the sort of thing they tend to write, you’ll be able
   to spot it instantly. As for what they’re trying to achieve, most of the time
   the answer is backlinks to their own site. It doesn’t make a huge amount of sense,
   but spammers are sadly a fact of the internet.
 * Unless you’ve uninstalled it, your blog should have the [Akismet](https://wordpress.org/plugins/akismet/)
   plugin already installed. Enabling this will help to filter out future spam messages,
   which can be a lifesaver as your blog grows in popularity.

 * If all of the below has been tried and you’re ready to call it a day and just
   use two separate images, you could look at [a plugin like this](https://wordpress.org/plugins/multiple-featured-images/).
   I’ve not used it personally but it looks like a good place to start.
 * If you prefer to figure out why your original approach wasn’t working:
 * The usual way to achieve this would be to have two different image sizes set 
   in your theme, then single.php displays the larger size image, and index.php 
   or whichever template is generating your home page uses the smaller size.
 * [add_image_size()](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size)
   is the function for adding a new image size and you would simply change the size
   parameter of [the_post_thumbnail()](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_post_thumbnail)
   in your different template files to display different sizes.
 * If this is what you’ve already tried and you’re having no luck, have you regenerated
   your thumbnails? _WordPress doesn’t automatically resize existing uploaded images
   when you change the image size settings_, you’ll need to install the [Regenerate Thumbnails](https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/)
   plugin and use that to quickly resize everything to your new settings.
 * Hope some of that is helpful!

 * Hi
 * It looks like other users are reporting the same problem with the iThemes Security(
   Better WP Security) plugin, I found a number of similar threads in [the plugin support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/better-wp-security).
 * The plugin developer has a few suggestions in [this thread](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-allowed-memory-size-71?replies=7),
   including disabling scheduled backups and something called “File Change Detection”.
   It would be worth reading through that thread and seeing if the same solutions
   work for you as a quick fix to allow you to use the site.

 * Hi, apologies for the late reply, I think this thread got lost in the shuffle
   a bit over Christmas.
 * Just done some testing and I’ve located the problem, will push out a bugfix release
   in the next couple of days.

 * Hi John
 * At the moment there is no way to do this, but I think it’s something that needs
   looking into for the next version as a couple of people have requested it. Adding
   it to my feature request list! 🙂

 * Hi there. Easy Image Display was developed as an easy way to display uploaded
   images (hence the name), not to display posts. Many sites have images that are
   not attached to any posts. You may find that a post display plugin has more of
   the features you’re looking for.
 * I’m always open to feature requests for this plugin, if there is something you
   feel should be added to improve the display of images. Please also note you can
   manually exclude images based on their ID if you don’t wish to display “everything”.

 * Hi
 * By default the WordPress gallery (which is what Easy Image Display uses for its
   layout) will populate horizontally across however many columns you set. If you’re
   displaying, say, 5 images and want them all to display in one line then setting
   the columns option to 5 should do the trick.
 * If you’re using the widget then it might depend on your widget area and theme
   styling. Please leave a link here if you’d like me to take a look.

 * There isn’t currently a way to do this, although you are the second person to
   request it so it’s officially on my list for investigation.
 * I don’t know how many images you’re dealing with, but if the pool of images you
   want the plugin to pull from is manageable you could always use the “only” filter
   option and list those image IDs. That way anything you upload that isn’t one 
   of those specific images will be ignored.
