In reply to: Website TakeoverBanners? You mean header logos? The theme may have a section where you can add/remove images like that. Do you at least know the theme name and who the developer is? Developers may have support forums either here or in their own sites.

In reply to: Changing the copyright footpage information of siteThat depends on your theme. Which is it? Or is it a custom theme? MarkRH is right though. Those are the first two places you should look in. The footer.php is in “Appearances – Editor.” Be careful when editing PHP files. You could lock up your whole site if you got it wrong. Back up before you edit those.
And if your theme has the feature, it may have a user interface where you can edit the footer text without going directly to the footer.php.

In reply to: Permalink Different from PostNameType in a title and save the draft. Edit the permalink and save the draft again. Do this a couple of times. Does the permalink stop changing?

In reply to: Website TakeoverYou will need to know PHP if you want to edit the code of a WordPress site. Start here: http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Lessons
You can view code of a WordPress theme via “Appearance” and then “Editor.”
Styling in WordPess is done with CSS. You’ll find CSS files in the active theme. That’s probably the only truly familiar thing you’ll encounter in WordPress. These sites aren’t built the way HTML sites are. I am not a programmer or designer though, just a regular user.
Not all WordPress themes require you to edit raw code to make changes. There’s some neat themes out there that let you do amazing things without handling a line of code. You just point and click or check boxes. It all depends on the theme and on what you want to do with it. What does the company use?

In reply to: Permalink Different from PostNameUm, when you edit a post, there’s a title bar and below that there’s the permalink or “slug” as I think it’s called. When you type in a post t itle for the first time, WordPress will make that the exact permalink. Like “My New Blog Post” to “my-new-blog-post.” After that, you can change the permalink to like “blog-post” or “post101.” I do this all the time.
Is that what you are trying to do?

In reply to: install template on more than one deviceYou can install WordPress on multiple computers for sure. You can also copy the same template (if you mean a theme) to each one. But I don’t know if you can sync the two. Haven’t done this myself.

In reply to: Inserting custom text into posts by category?Hmm. Looks like I found something that works. Anybody want to comment? I don’t know what half of it means. I copied and modified the code from this page http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-insert-ads-within-your-post-content-in-wordpress/
Seems to work for me initially.
//Makes the next part work. function prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $insertion, $paragraph_id, $content ) { $closing_p = '</p>'; $paragraphs = explode( $closing_p, $content ); foreach ($paragraphs as $index => $paragraph) { if ( trim( $paragraph ) ) { $paragraphs[$index] .= $closing_p; } if ( $paragraph_id == $index + 1 ) { $paragraphs[$index] .= $insertion; } } return implode( '', $paragraphs ); } //Insert ads after second paragraph of single post content. add_filter( 'the_content', 'prefix_insert_post_custom' ); function prefix_insert_post_custom( $content ) { $ad_code = '<div>Custom text here</div>'; if ( in_category('0') && is_single() ){ return prefix_insert_after_paragraph( $ad_code, 2, $content ); } return $content; }Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Inserting custom text into posts by category?Oh, and since I already have custom post footer text (text that appears at the end of each post), I want this other custom text to appear elsewhere. Specifically, I want it to appear IN the post, like maybe after 1-2 paragraphs.

In reply to: How to not index WordPress installation folder?Thanks, I’ll try that. I understand this to mean I can noindex a folder but not the whole WordPress blog. 🙂

In reply to: What kind of plugin can do this?The WordPress login plugins I’ve seen seem to follow the normal WordPress login layout where there’s “username,” “password,” login button and then links to password reset and new user registration. A custom login plugin can help you customize the look and feel of the page, but whether it will get the EXACT same look you show in the pic, I don’t know.
Does this help? You can add custom CSS or HTML.
