Hey Chris,
There may be a conflict or misconfiguration between your static front page and the blog page settings. Here are steps to resolve this issue:

Reassign the Blog Page:

• Go to your WordPress admin dashboard.
• Navigate to Settings > Reading.
• Ensure that you have selected the correct page for your “Posts page.” Choose the page you’ve designated as your blog page (e.g., “Latest Posts”).

Check Blog Page Template:

• Go to Pages in your WordPress admin.
• Locate the page you’ve set as your blog page (e.g., “Latest Posts”).
• Edit that page and ensure that it’s using the correct template. It should use a template that displays the blog feed, often labeled as “Blog” or “Posts Page.”

Customizing the Blog Feed:

If you’re unable to edit the design of your blog feed under “Edit Site,” you might need to explore alternative methods:

• Use a page builder plugin to customize the blog feed layout.
• Check if your theme has specific customization options for the blog feed within the theme settings.

Setting a page as “unchecked” under Settings > Reading won’t directly affect SEO. However, it’s best to have a designated blog page for better site structure and user experience.

If the issue persists, consider switching to a default WordPress theme temporarily to see if the problem is theme-specific or check the theme’s documentation

Hi Ebodero
I understand you’d like to change the colour of the email social media icon on the page.

You can find references to the objects in the CSS code by inspecting the element using your web browser’s developer tools.

To modify the email social media icon color, use this CSS code:

.wp-block-social-links:not(.is-style-logos-only) .wp-social-link-mail {
    background-color: #12191d;
 
}
.wp-block-social-links:not(.is-style-logos-only) .wp-social-link {
    color: #ffffff;
}

See this recording: https://share.getcloudapp.com/nOuQ40zb#

Follow these steps to add the CSS code to the Theme Customizer:

1. Log in to your WordPress dashboard and go to Appearance > Customize.

2. In the left-hand menu, click “Additional CSS,” located at the bottom, and paste the CSS code.

4. Click the “Save & Publish” button to apply your changes.

Regards.
Aniekan.

Hey Charles
WordPress updates plugins in batches. When you select all plugins and press update, WordPress will first update a few plugins at a time. Once those plugins have finished updating, WordPress will update the next batch of plugins. This is done to prevent your server from being overloaded.

Some sites may show the progress bar filling up as each plugin updates. Others may only show progress once all the plugins have finished updating. WordPress themes and plugins can use different methods to report their progress.

There is no way to change how WordPress updates plugins. You can let WordPress update plugins in batches or update plugins manually, one at a time.

Here are some of the reasons why WordPress updates plugins in batches:

• To prevent your server from being overloaded.
• To make sure that all of your plugins are compatible with the latest version of WordPress.
• To allow you to test each plugin after it has been updated.

If you are concerned about your site’s performance, you can try updating plugins manually one at a time. However, this can be a time-consuming process.

When working with WordPress parent and child themes, the idea is to keep customizations in the child theme to prevent them from being overwritten when the parent theme gets updated. However, changes in the child theme won’t automatically apply if they were initially made in the parent theme and then moved to the child theme.

Here are steps to resolve the issue:

1. Ensure that the file path and CSS selectors remain the same when you move the custom CSS from the parent to the child theme. Any change in file paths or selector names would prevent the CSS from being applied.

2. If the custom CSS was being enqueued in the parent theme’s functions.php, please ensure you’ve replicated the same enqueue process in the child theme’s functions.php to load your custom stylesheet. The enqueue function should use the correct file path for your CSS file in the child theme.

Example of enqueuing a custom stylesheet in the child theme’s functions.php:

function enqueue_child_theme_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style('child-style', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css');
    // Add other custom stylesheet enqueues here if needed
}
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_child_theme_styles');

3. Theme Hierarchy: WordPress prioritizes files in the child theme over the parent theme. If a file exists in both parent and child themes, the child theme file will be used. However, this doesn’t apply to CSS loaded via functions.php. Ensure that the correct CSS file is being loaded from the child theme.

4. Clear any caching plugins or server caches that might be holding onto the old CSS. This ensures that the changes made in the child theme take effect.

5. Inspect the page using your browser’s developer tools if the issue persists. Check the Network tab to see if the CSS file is being loaded. Also, inspect the HTML elements to ensure your target CSS classes or IDs are present and correctly spelled.

6. Please ensure that the CSS in your child theme has the specificity to override any conflicting styles from the parent theme.

I’m glad you resolved the issue by rolling back to a previous version and upgrading plugins, themes, and WordPress core. Great troubleshooting!

There is a conflict between two versions of the wp_update_https_detection_errors() function, causing a fatal error and displaying an error message. The issue is related to the automated update using wp-cli. Since you cannot access the WordPress dashboard to troubleshoot the issue, you can try resolving it using FTP or SSH. 

Here’s how to proceed:

– Using your credentials, connect to your WordPress hosting server via FTP or SSH.

– Navigate to the wp-includes folder where the core WordPress files, including the deprecated.php file, are located.

– To disable the deprecated.php file temporarily, rename it to something like deprecated.php.bak.

– Try reaccessing the WordPress dashboard. If the error message is gone, you can identify the source of the conflict.

– If the error persists, it may be due to a plugin conflict. Deactivate all plugins and reactivate them individually to find the one causing the issue.

– Once you find the plugin causing the conflict, disable it or update it to a compatible version. After that, you can rename the deprecated.php file to its original name.

Another potential solution is to roll back to a previous version of WordPress or restore your website from a backup taken before the update.

Try out these, and let me know how it goes.

Hi Julian

The link you provided is incorrect. Please share the correct link to assist with investigating the issue on the page.

I noticed that the second link needs to be formatted properly with an anchor tag. See screenshot https://share.zight.com/8Lu6NWg8 for reference.

To fix this, wrap the paragraph tag with an anchor tag, just like in the first link. Check the screen recording https://share.zight.com/kpuRZrBd on how to do this.

Let me know how it goes.

Hi Glorialacson,

I see you are experiencing difficulty accessing your WordPress dashboard. The error message you mentioned indicates that the URL “/adminlogin” cannot be found. One possible solution is to try accessing the dashboard through the default WordPress login URL, typically located at “/wp-admin” or “/wp-login.php.”. 

I have checked both URLs, https://www.glorialacsoncolleges.edu.ph/wp-admin, and https://www.glorialacsoncolleges.edu.ph/wp-login.php, on my browser, and it appears that they are still not working. This indicates a problem with your WordPress installation or server configuration. 

In that case, I suggest you consider the following:

• Verify that all WordPress core files are present and not corrupted. You can download a fresh copy of WordPress and compare it with your existing files.

• There could be a problem with your WordPress database. Ensure that your database is accessible and that the connection details in your WordPress configuration file (wp-config.php) are correct.

• Check your server configuration to ensure it meets the requirements for running WordPress. Review your server’s error logs for clues about what might be causing the issue.

If you’re still unable to resolve the problem, it might be a good idea to contact your hosting provider’s support for assistance.

Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Hey Abrogard,

You shared a link to a Facebook post instead of a link to the page on your website.
Please double-check the link.

It’s not uncommon for WordPress to prompt you to update to the latest version, but it’s unusual to suggest an older version.?This could be due to a plugin conflict or a glitch in the WordPress core.

It’s possible to downgrade to a previous version of WordPress using a plugin. However, it’s generally not recommended to do so, as it may cause compatibility issues with your plugins and themes.?

Regarding your second question, I’m unaware of similar situations where WordPress prompted a user to update to an older version. However, it’s always a good idea to double-check the update notification before proceeding with the update.

If this is still a concern, you can 

• Clear your WordPress cache and cookies.
• Check for any errors in your WordPress logs, or contact your hosting provider for further assistance.
