Hi Benjamin,

Thank you for getting back to me. I have tried to whitelist the reverse proxy ips and am still getting the same exact result. The irony in all of this is that the X_Forwarded_For header is showing the correct ip address. The leftmost IP as your comment states. Why can’t we use this?

<?php
                                            $name_to_display = woffice_get_name_to_display();
                                            printf( _x( 'Hi <strong>%s</strong>!', "Hi USERNAME - It's the welcome message in the header", 'woffice' ), $name_to_display );
                                            ?>
                                            <?php // GET CURRENT USER ID
                                            $user_ID = get_current_user_id();
                                            echo get_avatar( $user_ID );
                                            ?>

How would I edit this in order to make it do what I am trying to accomplish. Assume I know little to nothing about PHP other than how to read it a bit.

Ok so, update, most of the above issues are solved. However, one of the more important issues has not been corrected, the Theme issue, and that Goddamned hamburger menu!

However it was a blessing in disguise, as I was about to open up and get buddy press going, which I find to be an amazing attraction of registrations, and spam, but that’s easily fixed with user registration using gravity forms with email confirmation or some other like method and usage of Facebook comments with FB Login to comment with or Disqus.

if anyone can assist me, i’m quite savvy and unfortunately, wordpress does not behave well with me. https://www.jurisdesk.com is my site. or was…

so i uninstalled wordpress after backing up my database and content folder. i successfully reinstalled the database, installed wordpress into the same database as before, dropped my wp-content folder into the public directory where it was before, and poof absolutely nothing…no pages, nothing! one page hello world post… i work too damn hard on a project and then it get’s ruinied no matter what I do. this is wordpress, this is how it is.

actually I’m having all the same problems… server responding in 2 seconds… render blocking js and css. I started the same topic, and no one replied so I’m hopping on this one.

my site is https://www.jurisdesk.com

I still haven’t found a solution, and made it more lightweight than before. Just for using too many social Icons my score for user friendly went down to 91/100.

Is there really no way to manipulate wordpress and make it just stop doing what it wants to do without plugins or creating functions?

I mean I could optimize my db…. but I don’t have the command console that anyone talks about in php my admin. There are no commands, there is no place for configuration mondules, and even if there was, I don’t have a command line to execute them. I’m running windows 7 pro.

or css animations. that plugin bwpm…7 seconds!

My bounce rate is only 20% which is good, but that’s the big picture. I care about two pages on the whole site…the front page. And my blog page. The rest, don’t mean anything, they are there because they are supposed to be.

i even used the bwp minify plugin you mentioned, and that, I will admit, is nice because I can move scripts from the head to the footer, and choose what to minify and what not to, I removed all css animation from the landing page, dropped quite a bit of text, and I have a simple menu, that everyone uses.

2mb! It’s so minimalistic it’s not even funny. I got rid of all css scripts, all my images are less than 14kb, I put every piece of js and css on maxcdn, and am caching hard both on the server and in the cloud and using acf pro. the video is embedded from youtube. what do you think it is?

I like wordpress, and what I’m trying to say is I want to really make it work. I am not going to begin offering it to customers until, I feel it’s up to par and, I really want to see it work. It has too much potential. Also the rest api, if someone can help me utilize that effectively, I believe that My ways combine with wordpress, could be a beautiful thing.

just to add, I decided to learn wordpress, because 67% of the world is using it, and therefore the knowledge is valuable. I see potential in this platform, but I will do things my way with html 5 completely with a flare of ruby.

I have the same problem and there is no solution. W3 caching breaks every site. I even tried using 3 cdns to speed it up. WP and all of the innate function calls and long strings, which can’t be really customized, w3 super cache breaks my site too. I have tried every thing in history to fix this, and there is no solution to it. I’m at the point where I want to give up on wordpress and begin using straight html5 and bootstrap css which is much faster. I don’t need cdns, I can configure an sql server how I want, and that’s that. If anyone really has a solution to this, I mean a true solution, I would love to hear it. I’m not talking a plugin, because that’s just going to slow everything down too, let me know. I have plugins deactivated and yet wp and x want to continue to call it, no matter what mods I make to my functions.php file.
