Did you change the path in the database from leantrak.com/wordpress9 to leantrak.com ?
If you have PHP myAdmin you can look at the database search for and change these paths. Many shared hosts have this tool.

In reply to: Adding a different index pageUnder settings you can specify if you want to have a static front page other than a standard ‘blog’ page.

You may need to create a page template that doesn’t call any of the navigation, sidebar, and footer elements to get what you desire.
Good luck!

In reply to: Website lost after domain changeHave you changed hosts? If you haven’t all of the site files and database should be in place and some simple changes to the database could resurrect your site.
If you have changed hosts you must export the database and import it to the new host.

In reply to: FB doesn't show picture from WPDoes your WordPress install have the correct Facebook open graph tags:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/using-objects
Some plugins will add these and some will not. Look at the source code of your page to see if you have something that looks like:
<meta property="og:title" <meta property="og:type" <meta property="og:url" <meta property="og:image" <meta property="og:site_name" <link rel="opengraph" href={DESTINATION_URL}/>
You may need to add these to the <head></head> of your theme or look for a plug in here: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/search.php?q=facebook+meta+tag
I think the featured image is showing up as a thumbnail. Can you change this when you place the media in the WordPress editor?

In reply to: Theme & plugin CSS not updating1. Are you 100% sure the CSS file has not been cached? Try loading the CSS files specific path. It may be different for you depending on the install location.
Example: https://www.your-domain.com/wp-content/themes/theme-name/style.css
Once it has loaded in the browser in plain text identify the change you made. Reload your WordPress page see if it appears correct.
2. Your theme has several CSS files. Are you sure you are adapting the correct file?
3. Have you tried using the “Edit CSS” option under the appearance menu?
good luck!

In reply to: Does Multisite support diifferent domains?It does support different domains but if it is set up incorrectly you could get a hit on SEO.
Some hosts might work better than others as might some registrars.

You should be familiar with DNS changes to your domain’s CNAME record.
