In reply to: Text on page being used as a title on pageSometimes, the title setting is in the bottom fields/text boxes at the very bottom of the page editor (if you scroll down) for that page.
Otherwise, you may want to check how the title is handled in your theme settings under “Appearance” tab. Once there, the title field may be under “meta tags” or “header settings”.

In reply to: Sitemap can be read, but has errors – Sitemap is HTMLIf the plugin didn’t overwrite it somehow, WordPress generates a sitemap by default at:
/wp-sitemap.xml
for example:
example.com/wp-sitemap.xml
Otherwise, you may want to contact the SEO plugin’s forum for help.
I’m not sure how to help with a previously hacked site, other than what you seem to be doing now…Google takes a while before it sees you’re cleaned up.
How are you inserting the links? Are you using the default Gutenberg editor?

In reply to: More secure, better performanceI think 2FA should almost be considered for core at this stage. However, I know that it could potentially lock out non-tech-savvy users who don’t understand what they’re enabling or the importance of writing down the backup seed.
WordFence has one of the most straightforward setups I’ve seen so far. The QR also worked well with my open-source authenticator from F-Droid (no proprietary OTP authenticator lock-in)

In reply to: Cannot Modify Header informationHi ShaneM, did you edit any PHP files recently before this error occurred? For example, did you do any editing in the “Editor” area under the “Appearance” tab?
As a note, I usually got this error when I accidentally introduced whitespace or a new line before the opening <?php in a *.php file I had recently edited.

In reply to: Rectangular images get squared on the blog pageThen that sounds like a built-in theme settings panel you showed in your video, rather than a plugin. You may want to seek out the theme’s support area (for EightMedi).

In reply to: Rectangular images get squared on the blog pageOk, cool site! I wish I could learn another language, but I struggle with that.
Anyway, starting at 00:48 in your video, I see the backend panel where you’re setting the image size. That looks like a third-party plugin. I suspect that it is overwriting the natural size of the rectangle images you upload.
Does that plugin have a forum where you can ask how you can disable it from scaling certain images?

In reply to: Jquery and $$I usually have to wrap my jQuery code in a special function that binds $ to jQuery.
See https://api.jquery.com/jquery.noconflict/
Namely:
(function( $ ) { $(function() { // More code using $ as alias to jQuery }); })(jQuery);

In reply to: Rectangular images get squared on the blog pageWhat happens when the media setting is disabled to scale to 1280×1280 for large-size images, and then you upload the rectangle image? Is the rectangle size retained?

In reply to: After moving site – login returns to home pageLooks like you followed the technical steps for the move.
I do see this a lot with caching plugins and especially cloudflare. I would check hard if I may have missed that any potential caching options/plugins were fully disabled and flushed. And also clear your browser cache.

In reply to: Content mismatch, Home vs. Tabs (top row)These pages are using a different post type template. The post types are called “clients” and “testimonials”. They are probably using a custom archive page that has its own layout and headings. You can find the template page and change it if you are comfortable with that or use CSS to hide things like the heading.
