In reply to: what is database file location?No, the database data isn’t stored with WordPress. Use a tool like WP Migrate DB to export the database into a transportable file. Then import the file into the new database at your new hosting, using phpmyadmin or similar.

In reply to: what is database file location?On a Linux server, the data is stored in /var/lib/mysql or as defined in /etc/my.cnf. You would need root access to get to it. You probably don’t want to do that though, you normally access the database via the mysql command line or a tool such so Phpmyadmin.

In reply to: Flexislide gone wrong!Looking at the source of your site, you’ve added the code snippet I posted below the slides, not in your header. Strip it out and let’s do this properly. Put this in your theme’s functions.php:
function my_slider() { ?> <script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"> (function($) { $(window).load(function() { $('.flexslider').flexslider({ animation: 'slide', controlsContainer: '.flex-container' }); }); })(jQuery) </script> <?php } add_action('wp_head', 'my_slider');Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Child theme not working properlyChange the child theme name to something else otherwise you’d have two themes with the same name.

In reply to: Huge Whitespace between menu and page contentLook at the raw source, not just in devtools. You’ll see it.

In reply to: Huge Whitespace between menu and page contentI found that too, but look at the source of the site, right at the top. There’s a large amount of obfuscated JavaScript in there. I suspect that the site has been compromised.
Might be an idea to read through this:

In reply to: How to edit contact formDo you mean comments form? If so, the option to turn on/off comments per page/post may be missing from the editor screen. Look top right when in the post editor. Hit screen options, tick comments. The comments option should then appear below the post editor.

In reply to: Pingbacks as soon as post sentIt’s called self-pinging.
To stop it, if you post a link to your own site, instead of linking like this:
<a href="http://example.com/example-post">New Post</a>link like this:
<a href="/example-post">New Post</a>Alternatively, a plugin like Disabler can take care of that for you.
