Try overwriting it or creating a new one – Settings | Permalinks and refresh.

In reply to: I've lost my site!FTP is basically accessing the remote server (computer). Depending in your hosting configuration.
1) You should have a username and password to login to ftp from your hosting company. It is usually the first or second email before you are requested to make a payment for the service
2) FTP access is as follows:
address -> ftp://domain.com
username -> [email protected]
password -> whatever
3) You will need a tool like Filezilla or WinSCPYou should be set from there… there is also some nice tutorials online and on YouTube.

In reply to: I've lost my site!Uhm, try commenting out that piece of code in your functions.php using FTP. It could be a theme issue, the script looks okay to me.

In reply to: Embedding into a website using HTMLHey Petechembers,
Did you come right? Sorry I have been really busy over the past few days – still am, but decided to check my mail and see what’s WHAT!!
Make sure that you follow the steps above and especially the steps on this url: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Integrating_Wordpress_with_Your_Website
Let me know if you still can’t get it right – be specific (what you have done and where you are getting stuck). Time is the enemy at the moment

In reply to: DNS ServerHi Steve,
You need to copy everything in the www/Worpress folder and move the copied content up to the root (www).
So everything from:- wp-admin
- wp-content
- wp-includes
- wp-includes
- wp-activate.php
- wp-blog-header.php
- everything…
You copy those up to the www folder (that is the folder which is viewable when people visit your website). Once that is done, you will need to edit your database, this can be done by logging into cPanel and using PhpMyadmin to edit the wp_option table. Here you will edit the siteurl and the home with: https://www.ngwevu.co.za/
That should solve your problem.
Not to burn any bridges, but why Serve Hosting? #JustAsking
There are a lot of good hosting companies in South Africa and the USA that offer good support to their clients. You know the saying, you pay peanuts you get monkeys…It’s really a small issue that they could have assisted with in a matter of minutes. Hope you manage to resolve the issue…

In reply to: DNS ServerHi Steve,
I am no t sure I understand your question. Please clarify:
- Do you want people to be redirected to www.ads-software.com when visiting your website?
- Do you want to install WordPress on your domain? But have it reside in the root folder? https://www.ngwevu.co.za/
If it is option 2 you are looking for, all you have to do is to copy all the files from www/Wordpress directly into the parent folder (www) and then update your WordPress database’s hope url and site url to your domain name: https://www.ngwevu.co.za/

In reply to: How to Make Full Screen Video Homepage?Well, the one on the url is a flash video file simply embedded on the template. It will not work on Apple products or any other products not supporting flash.
You can use HTML5 videos and here is a simplified tutorial if you understand HTML.

In reply to: I Can't upload photosNo suggestion. Sounds like a script issue (something one would get when using Internet Explorer), try using a different browser.
