Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Receiving Error establishing a database connectionYou have conflicting settings that were set. You should be able to access your site through your new host vultr if you can’t any other way. Do the settings in the wp-config file match what your site is intended to be? If all settings match, then all should be good. If they don’t match, or if values are something that they are not supposed to be, then things go wrong.
Make sure that you have set usernames and passwords. Earlier you wrote that you didn’t set a password. In the interim, it may be possible that because this is a public forum, your site may have been hacked if the password was changed by someone else other than you. The Internet is publicly accessible to anyone that can access it. It’s really important to set and use strong passwords with any account.

In reply to: Receiving Error establishing a database connectionGreat to hear.
Your website is not routing properly. It looks like you need to replace all your base URLs with the domain name. For example, all your links should be following the pattern:
https://playster.com/normal-lost-phone/
but instead are:
https://107.191.40.214/normal-lost-phone/In the admin panel, under Settings – General, do you have your domain name in the WordPress Address URL: and the Site Address URL?
Try that, and if it works, mark this ticket as resolved. If it doesn’t work, open a new ticket. Thanks!Forum: Themes and Templates

In reply to: [Tribute] removing "No Comments" in postsIt’s better to do it with CSS, or by using a child theme, instead of making the changes directly on your theme’s php files.
It’d also be easier for people to help if you posted a link to your site.

In reply to: Receiving Error establishing a database connectionHave you looked at what is says under “Set Database Host”? https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Editing_wp-config.php#Set_Database_Host
For most websites localhost works, but if you look at the list, your new host, Vultr, is not listed. If localhost does not work, you should contact your host to get the name of the database host and see if a port needs to be added.
And just to make sure that everything is covered, you did create a new database on the new host? When moving to a new host, a new database must be created. You also need to create a user and designate a password for the user to access the database.
If those things are done and you have the correct values, your site should be able to connect to the database.

In reply to: My blog image doesn't show up – page images okIt looks like the image is uploaded, but in order for the image to also show up on the blog page (aka post page), often within a theme there is a place to designate a featured image for the post. It’s often found in the sidebar, or underneath the main post editing section.
In order to find this, go back to the admin page where you created the post and look for something that allows you to choose a featured image.

In reply to: NextGen plugin images no longer link from one to anotherNo worries.
I’m in the middle of running Escape NGG to pull images from NextGen and into WP native galleries. It worked locally, so I’ll be tinkering to try and make it work on the live site.

In reply to: Upgrade to 4.2 causes blank pages to loadI changed the .htaccess file to the base WordPress htaccess file, but that did not change the behavior of loading the white/blank page.
Then while the WP Super Cache plugin was previously deactivated, I deleted the WP Super Cache plugin, then the site started working normally.
Thanks!

In reply to: Upgrade to 4.2 causes blank pages to loadI just reset the permalinks. It seems not to have made a difference.
I’ve also just tried IE. Same thing. It’s odd.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Upgrade to 4.2 causes blank pages to loadCan you navigate around the site and visit other pages/posts? On first page/post load, I get white pages for categories as well as pages and posts. After reload/refresh, the post/page loads for me. Hmmm.

In reply to: [Semicolon] Remove date from main pageYou can add the following css code to hide the dates:
.entry-date { display: none; }
It’s recommended that you do this in a child theme, or by using a plugin to add css.

In reply to: how to facebook like box on all pages of websitesWhat is your website? It’s likely that the facebook code is only on the home page. You likely need to paste the same facebook code into the widget area that also shows on regular pages and posts.
