In reply to: Robots.txt for subdomainsSites that are part of the network don’t have their own root directories where you can put robots.txt for each one. That’s why WordPress uses virtual robots.txt. Plugin is the only good way.

In reply to: how add schema.org to wordpressAre you referring to an actual XML sitemap? You would need a plugin for that. XML sitemaps and rich snippets are 2 separate things.
For sitemap, you can try this:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-video-sitemap-feed-with-multisite-support/Or if you use Yoast SEO, you can get their premium version:

In reply to: menu display problem following v4.7.3 updateI took a look at an archived copy of your website:
https://web.archive.org/web/20160324034956/http://energybiographies.org/It looks like your current website has different menu name. You CSS for the menu is tied to “#menu-global” ID. But your current website menu is set to “#menu-footer”. So you need to change menu name back to “Global” and that should generate correct CSS ID to bring back old styling. I did test it in Chrome, and it appeared to be working.
Try it and let me know.

In reply to: [ShareThis: Free Sharing Buttons and Tools] How to completely uninstallIt might be still caught in your cache. If you have caching plugins and/or server side caching, it may still be showing old pages where tracking code is still present. If the plugin was deactivated and deleted, there should be no traces of it.
If it’s still there after cache is cleared, it may be inserted by something else or through a theme. Hard to say.

In reply to: Suspected Malware on SiteSucuri’s sitescan will not pickup malicious code in PHP files unless it makes obvious changes in the frontend. Only their premium services can scan your actual files.
That said. What you can do is scan your website files locally using your PC’s antivirus. I would highly recommend downloading free ClamWin antivirus to scan website files with it. ClamWin is based on ClamAV, which is what many hosting providers use to scan files for malware and it also comes with cPanel in some hosts.
Basically, you’ll need to access your website files with FTP, and download “public_html” folder to your computer. Usually, with most FTP clients (like Filezilla) you simply drag and drop that folder to your computer folder. It will download a copy of everything to your PC. Keep in mind, there’s a lot of stuff in public_html folder, so it may take some time to download everything.
Once it’s downloaded, you simply find that folder on your computer and right click on it, and select “Scan this folder with…..”. If you did download ClamWin, it’ll say “Scan with ClamWin Free Antivirus”. This will initiate the scan and scan everything inside that folder. With a bit of luck, it will identify infected files. But keep in mind, it may not identify infected files and/or it may not identify all of the infected files. This process is also what SiteGround recommends:
https://www.siteground.com/kb/how_to_check_your_website_for_malicious_content/Side note from experience: Many popular antivirus programs may not identify malicious code written in PHP as a virus. ClamWin is a bit more specific, and it may identify it.
Start with this and let us know how it goes. If you still haven’t identified any infected files, let us know and we can see what your next best step is.

In reply to: Centering Contact FormYou’re right, you do have 2 columns there. You can change columns and alignment with CSS:
.page-id-1999 .container > .col-md-8{ margin: 0 auto; float: none; } .page-id-1999 .container > .col-md-4{ display: none; }Add this CSS to your stylesheet, this should work. If it doesn’t work, keep CSS in your stylesheet and post here so I can take a look at your CSS and how it interacts with your theme’s CSS to see what needs to be tweaked.

In reply to: Giving WordPress Multisite site its own directory.I’m not sure I understand the question. When you enable network on your WordPress installation, it turns entire WP into a network. It’s not a separate instance of WordPress.
Each child site is part of the network, they are not separate websites. By default, each child site is accessed from a sub-directory: multisite.com/child-site
You can change that to access child sites from a sub-directory: child-site.multisite.com
But I’m not sure what you’re actually asking about. So if you still need help, try to elaborate on your question and provide an example of what you’re trying to achieve.

In reply to: Doesn’t recognize PW each time I log inHi, your BlueHost password is different from your WordPress password. When WordPress was installed on your BlueHost account, username and password should’ve been setup at that time.
You can try doing password reset inside WordPress
/wp-login.phppage to make sure you have the correct password.^V

In reply to: website for a 20 room InnWordPress is a great platform for a small business website, including an inn. The easiest way you to proceed if you’re doing it DIY:
1. You’ll need hosting that supports WordPress (most do). Check with your current hosting provider to see if they support WordPress.
2. You will need to get a theme (template) for WordPress that was designed for your niche (inn, hotels, hospitability). Many premium themes come with great features and designs that make DIY process fast. You can Google “wordpress themes for hotels” and see what themes are available.
3. If you’re integrating third-party booking system with your website, you’ll need to check with them to see if they provide WordPress integration. If not, you might need to simply link to your booking page from the website. There are booking plugins available for WordPress that allow bookings inside your website, without third-party booking systems.
WordPress is a good choice, you just need to find a theme that you want to use to build your website.

Hi Cristina,
If it’s missing from your database, there’s no other places where it may be. I would recommend trying to see if your host has a backup that dates further back in the past, to see if it’s there. The theme preview should not have done anything, it does not modify the database. Although it is possible there was an issue/glitch that caused your homepage to be deleted.
Are you using any page builder plugins? Like Visual Composer, Divi, Beaver Builder, etc.? They store data differently sometimes, and it’s possible that plugin had an issue with the preview.
If you want to get content back from your homepage, and rebuild it manually, you can try using Web Time Machine to see if they have a copy of your website saved:

In reply to: Robots.txt for subdomainsYou can easily manage your Multisite robots.txt file using this plugin:
https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/multisite-robotstxt-manager/WordPress creates a virtual robots.txt file if there is no robots.txt file present in the root folder. It uses
robots_txthook to output data. So you can easily manage it using this hook, and I believe that’s what the plugin above does in a Multisite environment.^V

In reply to: how add schema.org to wordpressIt depends on what type of schema.org you want to add.
The theme you use should provide basic structural schema.org markup of your pages and posts.
If you want specific schema.org markup for events, products, etc. you can try using this plugin: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-schemaorg-rich-snippets/

In reply to: menu display problem following v4.7.3 updateYou should definitely update parent theme, see if that fixes your errors. I do see a lot of Javascript errors on your site. Updating parent theme might fix them.
The child theme’s purpose is exactly to allow you to update parent theme without losing custom changes you may have done inside child theme. So as long as your parent theme has no custom changes, updating it will work just fine.
What you can do, simply download your parent theme via FTP to your computer as a backup. Update parent theme on your website, and see how everything is working. If everything is fine, good. If something breaks, then you can delete parent theme and re-upload downloaded copy of the previous version.
It is a good idea to create a full backup of your website before making any changes.
