UPDATE: I divided the post into three shorter posts (creating three brand new drafts). Two of them worked fine. One of them had the same problem as the original, even though it’s only 5,000 words.

So, I went through that post, deleting paragraph by paragraph to see when it would finish “Saving…” What I found was that once I deleted a link to another post on my own website, it saved with no problem. That was the issue. I re-entered that link, and now it’s fine.

Thanks. I added that code, but it’s still autosaving as soon as I make a change (I tried logging in and out of WordPress to make sure). Is it possible I updated the wrong wp-config.php file?

EDIT: It occurred to me that it might be because my draft is very long (over 13,000 words), so I opened a shorter draft, and it seems to be working fine. Are long drafts known to cause problems like this?

Thanks for the response. I can’t find anything that resembles that code in my wp-config.php file. I’m using the most recent version of WordPress, and it starts “Saving…” pretty soon after I make any changes.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Thanks, worked perfectly putting it into my child theme!

Thanks again. Marking as ‘resolved’.

Thank you so much!! That worked perfectly. I super appreciate the help.

Ah, I got it centered by adding:

margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;

This CSS code is great! Thank you so much!

Two last questions:

1) This puts the the logo to the left. Is there a simple way to make it centered?

2) Should I also add alt text?

Thanks again!

Hi, thanks for the response!

To be clear, are you suggesting it would be better to make the change in the stylesheet than in the header.php?

Do you know how to do that, in order to see the logo and the description at the same time?

Thanks again!
Dan

Oh, I see. Ok, I’ll start fresh with those instructions.

Thanks again!

Oh, hmmm…

It is an addon, not a subdomain. Does that make a difference?

The database info was updated in the mp-config.php to begin with. That seems fine.

I’m thinking, though, that I’ve gone about this the wrong way (well, I guess that’s obvious by now).

Basically, I have a “blog” folder in the addon domain https://www.danjacobwallace.com.

I want to move that folder to the primary domain, https://www.untrammeledmind.com.

For that, perhaps I should start over, and use the instructions at https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Moving_WordPress#Moving_Directories_On_Your_Existing_Server

Does that sound about right?

Thanks, I really appreciate the help.

Thanks for the response! #5 in the first option got me a little further along. Now I can get a login here: https://www.untrammeledmind.com/blog/wp-login.php

But it says cookies are blocked, and when I log in, I end up at the old URL. I tried setting up a clean wp-config.php, but that hasn’t helped.

This is what I was trying to do:

The primary domain on my host account is https://www.untrammeledmind.com.

The blog is currently in a subdomain, at https://www.danjacobwallace.com/blog

I downloaded a back up of that blog, as well as the database, and attempted to upload all that to https://www.untrammeledmind.com/blog (I followed a tutorial)

Currently, https://www.danjacobwallace.com/blog still works fine (the site address is https://www.danjacobwallace.com), but the https://www.untrammeledmind.com/blog shows up as described in my original post.

Did I go about this the wrong way?

Thanks,
Dan

Another update… I see that this is an intended feature for cleaning up the appearance on mobile devices. The issue is that it doesn’t work if there’s a submenu, because the overflow is hidden. Even making the overflow visible or scrollable, however, it’s very clunky. So, I disabled the feature. However, the menu is now an issue on iPhone/iPad because, once you click the menu/submenu, it won’t close.

Is there any chance that a redesign for the mobile menu is in the works? I love everything else about this theme, and think that this would make it perfect.

Note that I’ve looked at another person’s website using this theme, and saw the same issue with submenus.

Ok – I see that this happens on my laptop/desktop as well, when you make the screen bigger than 125% or so. I can probably just remove that feature, but, if there’s something already worked out for this, please let me know.

Thanks!
