True, but that doesn’t address the other issue of reInstalling WP; the other issue is wp-config.php where you edit DBname as desired, creating dB & userName,adding the allow true statement and ending up with this:

<?php
/* compressed - no comments - from Sample */
define( 'DB_NAME', 'xxx' );
define( 'DB_USER', 'xxx' );
define( 'DB_PASSWORD', 'xxx' );

define( 'DB_HOST', '162.241.253.150' );
define( 'DB_CHARSET', 'utf8' );
define( 'DB_COLLATE', '' );

define( 'AUTH_KEY', ? ? ? ? 'xxx');
define( 'SECURE_AUTH_KEY', ?'xxx' );
define( 'LOGGED_IN_KEY', ? ?'xxx');
define( 'NONCE_KEY', ? ? ? ?'xxx');
define( 'AUTH_SALT', ? ? ? ?'xxx');
define( 'SECURE_AUTH_SALT', 'xxx');
define( 'LOGGED_IN_SALT', ? 'xxx');
define( 'NONCE_SALT', ? ? ? 'xxx');

$table_prefix = 'wp_';

define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );

/* Multisite */
define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true);

/* That's all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {

	define( 'ABSPATH', __DIR__ . '/' );
require_once ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php';

I think TablePress added caching link to the top line of my dashboard. Is Caching’s purge all command removing all canceled or trashed tables from it’s link list of tables? I’ve started 4 tables now it gives ID/(howmany) when I start another table.

Hay Steve,

1st I tried importing my table template. That was a bust.
2nd I tried creating a table from scratch. When I attempted to execute the colSpan command it gave me a warning:

Attention: You have enabled the usage of the DataTables JavaScript library for features like sorting, search, or pagination.
Unfortunately, these can not be used in tables with combined cells.
Do you want to proceed and automatically turn off the usage of DataTables for this table?

Is this telling me the serving Congregation members won’t be able to edit the content? I’m canceling the creation until I hear back from you.

I really hope that is not the case…

Yes, I’m creating this site from scratch: https://box5800.temp.domains/~icrclans/

I don’t think I have any database files — well maybe!

in the library, posts and pages are set to all and media has no begin or end date when I clicked export. I only have 1 image 3 pages and 1 post.

I’ve set up 3 domains Archives.siteDN, old.archives.siteDN and new.archives.siteDN as a test case. Old refers to oldest on top, new refers to newest on top and archives is the department Where the static page for the conversation(old) and New Events(new) blog’s will reside.

Are you/that-article saying to Tools(export) to copy the database to my computer?

I see themes in appearance, but no folders. Where are the folders found?

Hi, How do I start Topic?

All the other Table Formatting topics are closed.

I find the table add function to be too basic without using colSpan directives. Which means I need to access the HTML of the table inserted. Also, when I’m building a table, I never know how many rows there will be. Usually, I make too many and insert more and then truncate what I don’t need.

Also, I’ve seen blocks that allow code. But I want the code to function as a file would. What am I doing wrong?

Well, now all I’m looking for is a theme with quarter inch margins, top right and bottom with a left margin like the customize theme page where is scrolls navigation links. I’m guessing it’s an iFrame widget.

Someone sent me a link of all available themes but that’s scouring hundreds for something that may or may not be there.

Thanks in advance.
Lon Hayes

maybe just a full page with 1/4″ margins.

If you’re wondering how I got my previous post to have 2 spaces between sentences; when I saw what the processor did to display the < and > symbols, I knew that if I made one space & n b s p ; without any spaces in between those 6 characters, it would display 2 spaces — but only when I edited my post because the editable version is HTML.

Well, it turns out I don’t understand themes at all.  See, I’m an HTML/CSS programmer.  I’m looking for absolute control over the content on the page.  I went back after replying to Joy only to, I guess, figure out that we’re not given control.  I was just looking to change my text-margins to fill the entire width on the screen, say like 1/4″ margins.  Be cause I was told we could access the HTML and CSS. Sadly it’s only the theme programmer that has it.  What I’m looking for is to create my own layout with HTML/CSS and have anyone be able to change the content.  In CSS you control the margins, the distance a paragraph is indented on the first line.  The shape and size of your list bullets, how far the indentation is on your quoted text from the rest of the text on the page.  The overall with of the page, if I wanted 1 full width page then at any given point change to three columns and back again further down the page, everything.

That is the “theme” of the page; it’s every decision of the layout.  What I’d want is to still have that much control then be able to do what the WordPress themes do so well, have a non-programmer be able to edit the content.  So I guess what I’m looking for is the next step forward. To be able to drop templates in like widgets.

Where each section or BLOCK, I call them divisions <div></div> the basic block, be a theme (1, 2, 3 columns, gallery, with widths and margins controlled like dragging the corners on an image to determine the size, etc.) into a blank frame I’d call the universal template.  And of course allow the user to edit the content as easily as they do now.

Sadly, we have “premium” templates, and since no one would ever need them, no one will ever take things to the next step.  As a society we need to eliminate money.  We need to have the betterment of ourselves be what we strive for rather than the accumulation of wealth.

that’s my Blog post on themes.

Finally! Every time I come here I spend an hour trying to fine a place to ask my question to support. Why isn’t there an “Ask Support” discussion thread; better yet just a button <start thread>?

OK, I need help finding a theme. What I want has to exist, WordPress itself uses it.

There header for support:
Logo, forum link, who’s on, search the web magnifying glass
Company Logo, Company name, etc. just like at the top of the page.

James,

My apologies, to you and everyone here. The one I did contact, left his email in his profile, otherwise…

Thank you joy. bot the link at my initial post is, to MR, perfect for a front page.
I’ve looked at many once you install any of them you are led to a similar one. It is what I would call 2 column. Both scroll, the left is navigation to help you customize your page. But, none have the combination of header space and widgets that the two-bar header found on that specific support page. First bar black, second bar blue. Just like the header on this page.

Can someone tell me where I can get/put together that combination? Maybe, I need a scroll bar add-on to go with a simple full page width template, but I want the header layout that is here as my version of customized header.

Anyone from www.ads-software.com be able to say Yea or Nay?

To answer your 1st question, if I knew PHP and javescript as well as I knew my HTML/CSS, Fortran, COBOL, RPG, Pascal (especially Borland’s), algol, and basic, I’d build my own site, but I don’t, so I need WordPress to allow others to enter the content besides it’s much faster on WordPress because they’ve taken out all (well most) of the hard work of coding in order to change the site. Oh, and there’s that matter of having the site owner switch to BlueHost on a 3 year contract. Besides, now every department can have their own template.

Questions?

then I’m looking for only 1 page, this one: www.ads-software.com/support/article/creating-a-static-front-page/

it has the prefect layout for my front page. I’ll have other people pick a standard theme for their department.

that page has everything in the perfect place. Although I would like to have a target as well as the hRef in hyperlinks. It prevents tab after tab of the same page.

BTW: why bbPress? Are you suggesting WordPress templates are not what WordPress used for their website?

This thread looked like the place to put it.

My question is: Can a user with the read role make comments?
