In reply to: Unable to display imageThe title is managed differently in the two pages.
<h1 class="site-title>
in home page
<div class="site-title>
in contact page
this leads to different css rules (font weight)Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Show/Hide last part of telephone number on site.You can try this plugin:
https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/email-encoder-bundle/
It encodes whatever text you need to hide and shows it on just a click.I’d do it this way:
-pull down IDs and filtered categories of all posts in descending order by date, put them in array A
-prepare an array B with keys of filtered categories and null values
-cycle down the A array. Let’s say ID=190 has cat=15. Look the value of key=15 of B array. If empty fill with ID=190. If not empty just skip.
-Once B array is full, use the values to pull down the posts by ID in descending order by date and loop them.Hope it helps

In reply to: Unable to display imagePlease give the URL of your website, unless it will be impossible to answer your question. Maybe the theme you’re using is set to hide images in the home page.

In reply to: Turning Linked Images to local imagesI found this:

It shows several plugins that do the jobForum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Moving one webpage to a different websiteUsually I start with WordPress Importer, then I copy files via FTP and eventually modify links directly in the database tables. Problems arise with plugins, as leejosepho states, it can take long to transfer items and options, data may be disrupted. The shop website probably uses plugins such as woocommerce, so be careful, eventually contact the plugin developer.
Another problem is that if you jump from one domain to the other, you may lose some of previous traffic. Make things happen gradually, drive traffic from the old to the new website, but don’t dismiss the old one abruptly.Forum: Everything else WordPress

Of course, be very careful before dropping tables!Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Received Google alert warning and can't find helpSaw the website you’re talking about. Seems like one of those automated ones, that mashes up posts from all over the web. Content jumps from nail art to led lighting, all in the same post. It uses the “advanced random posts widget” to build up the blog. They just want to get traffic and people clicking the ads, that’s all.

In reply to: Categories for custom post typesProbably you have already searched here:
https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Post_Types
First answer would be: make a new template in your theme for the specific post type, but, as stated in the link above: “In order to avoid breaking a site on theme switching, try to define custom post types as a plugin, or, better as a Must Use Plugins. This way you won’t force users into using a certain theme. “
So we can imagine a plugin that builds the query so to filter the CPT + additional categories.
Take a look in the plugin repository, I’m sure you will find yours.Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Media As AttachmentsA post or page is not a file, it’s just something written in the database, while the picture is a file saved on your server and referred to by the database! WP uses the same table for collecting posts, pages and attachments. If you display the image in a post, you will be able to modify the post permalink for SEO purposes.

In reply to: Media As AttachmentsWhen ever you upload a media file, it is uploaded as an “attachment”, even if it is not displayed in a post or page. To be more specific, when you upload a media file, a new row in the wp-posts table of the database is created, where the post-type is set to “attachment”. The url of this kind of post-type is not a permalink, wich can be changed, but it’s the actual url where the file is located. You can change other things like the title, the description, the caption and so on.
