In reply to: Front and back end of site won't loadTry removing the Jetpack plugin via FTP. If that fixes it, make sure you download the latest version of Jetpack before you re-install it. And check if your other plugins are up to date.

In reply to: Header and Footer WidgetsDoes you theme allow this kind of setting?
If not, a good place to start is with the Jetpack plugin. This lets you control Widget visibility per page/category/date/author. It might give you the functionality you want.

In reply to: How to make blogs visible ? (Using Static page for home)Not a problem, all the best.

In reply to: How to make blogs visible ? (Using Static page for home)It looks like you have two WordPress installs – one for your website – looks like running a WooCommerce theme – and a separate install running twenty fourteen theme under the /blog/ directory.
If you write a post while you’re logged into the WooCommerce site then it won’t show up in the /blog/ site due to the way this has been set up.
Try logging into the /blog site and making changes there.

In reply to: [WooCommerce] "State is a required field"Usually into your functions.php file – it depends on your theme but try putting it there first. (Back it up first!)

In reply to: [WooCommerce] All in one SEO, keywords not workingYour keywords also need to appear in your page content. The only place they appear at the moment is in your title and in the contact details in the footer.
Google doesn’t read the keywords in your <meta name=”keywords”> tag. The keywords in your description are only used for display purposes, not for ranking.
Try using your shop name in headings and copy on your homepage. Your website’s content is the most important place to focus on.
Add some extra content and then submit get Webmaster Tools to crawl again.

In reply to: [WooCommerce] Translate "view cart" button and sentenceThis can depend on your theme – what theme are you using?

In reply to: [WooCommerce] "State is a required field"If you’re comfortable adding code you could also try :
<?php /** * WooCommerce Extra Feature * -------------------------- * * Make "state" field not required on checkout * */ add_filter( 'woocommerce_billing_fields', 'woo_filter_state_billing', 10, 1 ); add_filter( 'woocommerce_shipping_fields', 'woo_filter_state_shipping', 10, 1 ); function woo_filter_state_billing( $address_fields ) { $address_fields['billing_state']['required'] = false; return $address_fields; } function woo_filter_state_shipping( $address_fields ) { $address_fields['shipping_state']['required'] = false; return $address_fields; }

In reply to: Meta description not showing upYou may have already tried this but Yoast SEO plugin lets you set a meta description for the home page and for each individual page. If your theme isn’t showing a description, the plugin should write it in for you.

In reply to: 301 Redirect From Custom Post Types To PostsThe .htaccess code for 301 redirects is:
Redirect 301 https://www.mydomain.com/news/wordpress https://www.mydomain.com/wordpress
One redirect per line and it goes in your .htaccess file. Make sure there aren’t any blank lines added to the start or end of your .htaccess.

In reply to: I can't edit my theme/widgetsIt sounds like the fatal error is something to do with the NextGEN gallery voting premium plugin.
I’d try deactivating that one again and checking everything over. If it’s deactivated, you won’t see the same error, unless there’s some kind of custom code somewhere, like functions.php.
If you still get an error, at least you’ve got a bit more information to go on.
If your widgets aren’t working, try checking for Javascript errors.
