In reply to: Can't get to new WP login pageYes, the DNS will straighten out over time. It can take a few minutes to a few hours depending on local, ISP and server settings.
You can help it along by clearing the browser cache.
I’ve found restarting the computer and getting a coffee works pretty well too.

In reply to: Can't get to new WP login pageSounds like it might be DNS issues then.
Have a look at:
https://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/https://www.meandmydiy.com/blog/wp-login.php
and:
https://anonymouse.org/cgi-bin/anon-www.cgi/https://www.meandmydiy.com/blog/This will get around any temporary DNS problems and you’ll be able to see if the installation has worked. Probably best to not login through anonymouse.

In reply to: Can't get to new WP login pageHi,
https://www.meandmydiy.com/blog/wp-login.php is correctly showing the WordPress login page for me.
If you’ve only recently completed the domain hosting the DNS changes may still be resolving. The “Sorry, the page you were looking for in this blog does not exist” error message supports this theory as I think it is a Blogger error message.
Can you see the default WordPress content at https://www.meandmydiy.com/blog/?

In reply to: Messed upSounds like you might’ve updated the WordPress Address and Site Address to the live server settings.
You can overwrite the settings stored in the database by editing wp-config.php
You’ll be able to update the WordPress Address and Site Address.
To use the localhost server:
define(‘WP_SITEURL’, ‘https://localhost/wordpress’);
define(‘WP_HOME’, ‘https://localhost/wordpress’);These settings overwrite the values set on the General Settings page.

In reply to: Help! Nav Issue( ' nav ' => ' ' ), Can't remove>> Divwp_list_pages can be used as a quick and simple menu. As it only generates list items you can add your own surrounding containers.
Sort the list items by menu order (page order):
sort_column=menu_order
Show pages one level down (just the top level pages)
depth=1
Don’t show the default heading of ‘Pages’
title_li=

In reply to: Help! Nav Issue( ' nav ' => ' ' ), Can't remove>> DivI’ve used the following for a simple html5 menu:
<nav id="nav" role="navigation"> <ul> <?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order&depth=1&title_li='); ?> </ul> </nav>

In reply to: Page TitleAre you developing your own theme or using a downloaded theme?
Check the code around the “the_title” tag, looks like the html might have an error.

In reply to: keeping images OUT of the "gallery"If you’re comfortable in the HTML side of the post edit section, have a look at the Gallery Shortcode page.
You can add the “exclude” option to the shortcode to exclude attached images form the gallery:
[gallery exclude="21,32,43"]
