In reply to: Downgrade 3.8 to 3.7.1Hey Gtantra,
This has been covered in the past on the forums:
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/downgrade-to-older-version?replies=4
Do you have FTP access? If so, download it from https://www.ads-software.com/wordpress-3.7.1.zip.
You will then need to manually move the files to the location where WordPress is installed.
WARNING!!!!
Make sure you back up your WordPress installation prior to this, especially everything in wp-content (themes, plugins, uploads, etc). You will also need to back up your database.
After you have moved over WordPress, you will then need to move the themes, plugins, and uploads back to wp-content, as the process above will overwrite your existing files.
I understand that this is not full proof, so tread lightly.

In reply to: Plug-in for new user spam?Hey dimplefaceCT,
This can happen when “Anyone Can Register” option checked under Settings > Membership. It is a little frustrating. When this option is checked, a “Register” link on the wp-login.php is added that redirects to https://www.yourdomain.com/wp-login.php?action=register.
To combat this, I’m using the “Math Captcha” plugin. This adds a captcha option that requires the user to do some simple math. Example: 66 – ____ = 63. The user would need to input the correct answer to register. You can download this plugin at https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-math-captcha/.

In reply to: How to make grid view of posts in category like this?Hey Akhilraj,
The first step would be to create a child theme for your current theme. This would allow you to create your own look and customization without editing the base theme. Here is some info on child themes: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes.
You would then to create a template for categories. Here is some info on Category Templates: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Category_Templates.
Then you would need to write a query in for the category template to display in a grid as shown.
Do you need help with the query and how to make the category display like the example you provided? This is not too hard to accomplish.

In reply to: Save new thumbnails / Crop thumnailsHey dothedance,
You can specify multiple custom thumbnail sizes as such:
add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' ); add_image_size( 'custom-thumbnail-size-one', width, height, true); add_image_size( 'custom-thumbnail-size-two',width, height, false);
The true and false declaration represent image cropping. Set to true, the image will be cropped. Set to false, no cropping will occur. You can also specify an unlimited height by using 9999.
You would then call them in your theme as such:
<?php if(has_post_thumbnail() ) { ?> <?php the_post_thumbnail('custom-thumbnail-size-one'); ?> <?php } ?>
Post back and mark resolved if this helps!
