In reply to: Where can I get dashboard themes (free WordPress ones)I’m not clear what you’re looking for. Would your custom links be adding functionality in WordPress?
There are a lot of plugins that re-skin the dashboard with different colors and such. You can search for them in the WordPress plugin repository.
Most themes don’t change the dashboard in huge ways. The themes usually only register new options and menu links for managing those options. The theme’s PHP dictates this.

In reply to: where is /login to /wp-login.php redirect encodedIt looks like there’s a javascript redirect happening on the login page. Do you have a page named login with javascript embedded, or have some sort of redirect somewhere?

In reply to: Why WP theme has both ID and class for same element?Speaking from my experience and not as an official answer, I like having the IDs around, plus classes. I have an old school practice of putting JavaScript event listeners on IDs as opposed to classes when they only need to be fired on specific elements.

In reply to: where is /login to /wp-login.php redirect encodedMany people use a plug-in that does this instead of an .htaccess rule. Perhaps your new site doesn’t have the plugin.
Btw, you have a cool username ??

In reply to: I have to be missing something with 404 to 301 redirectsI feel like you may have filled out the redirect backwards in the plugin. That’s because when I go to the ON url version, it goes to the AT version. You want it the other way around. The fields in the 301 plugins are not interchangeable.

In reply to: Page & Post titles won’t stop autofillingChrome autofill has become very aggressive lately, imo. But it’s still wild that the bug is filling out old page titles like your video shows. So that makes me question whether the issue is autofill.
Anyway, Can you try disabling Chrome’s autofill setting? Read about that here:

In reply to: Customize the URL for all images/ media filesAre you going to get rid of your old server? If not, you can keep the uploads folder as is and keep the old URL paths to the images on your new site. As long as the server doesn’t have hotlink protection, the images will load on your new site.
The image editor/media library won’t work on the new site for the old images. But any subsequent images you upload on the new site will be.
FYI, I would consider this more of a hack and a better solution would be to move the images over.

In reply to: embedding a formWhy are you including the button html if you don’t want it on the page?
If you do need it there, you could just add display: none; to the inline style you already have, like so:
<button id='btnBook' class='rmsBookButton' style="color: red; display:none;">BOOK A TRIP</button><a href='javascript:void(0);' id='btnBook' class='rmsBookButton'>BOOK A TRIP</a><img src='PATH TO YOUR IMAGE HERE' class='rmsBookButton' />

In reply to: Previous Page Visited for Hidden Form FieldThe php $_SERVER[‘HTTP_REFERER’] super global captures the referral URL. This is a decent write up for what you want to do:

Keep in mind that this value is supplied from the client browser. Thus it can be empty, faked, or mailicious. Don’t rely on it for security and be sure to escape it.

In reply to: WordPress Load Time for Multisite Configured With SubdirectoryDid you try looking at the speed with only the 2017 theme applied? If the theme is the culprit, I would contact the theme developer.

In reply to: Looking for a CRM plugin that has certain featuresI would consider gravity forms. It lets you do conditional forms like this and has a lot of other plugins that extend it more.

In reply to: WordPress NetworkHave you tried using a different browser? Just to rule out any client side issue.

In reply to: WordPress Load Time for Multisite Configured With SubdirectoryThose server specs are powerful, so I’m a bit baffled too. Your server log looks good to me. Your images look like they’re web optimized.
Are you located really far away from your VPS?

In reply to: How to call shortcodes in buttons in shortcode?That’s how I would do it. The best way to run another shortcode is with do_shortcode(). It’s not that unusual to have to build a somewhat cursory function like this when it comes to shortcodes. So don’t doubt yourself, you’ve got the right idea.
I will say you should be aware of escaping any user input from the $_POST if you’re using that as part of the shortcode generation. Safety first
