In reply to: Newly-registered menu doesnt show up on dashboardOkay now I understand what the problem was:
Registering a new menu or menus with register_nav_menu() doesn’t mean the new menu will show up in >Appearance>Menus>
I need to add one or more menus then go to >Appearance>Customize>Menus>MenuLocations>
…and then the menu names I created with register_nav_menu() will show up.Thank you.

In reply to: PageTemplate-Specific Menus: Making them ResponsiveHmmmm… I’m starting to wonder if I’ve bitten off more than I can chew…
The Theme is twentytwelve. I created the page templates myself and the header-*.php files for the pages look something like this:
wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'AA-menu', 'menu_class' => 'nav-menu') ); wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'BB-menu', 'menu_class' => 'nav-menu') ); wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'CC-menu', 'menu_class' => 'nav-menu') );
And in the dashboard for >Appearance>Menus>, the names for these menus might look something like this:
AA -> “apples”
BB -> “berries”
CC -> “cheries”…then when the “AA” page loads, wordpress generates CSS looking something like this around the menu:
<div class="menu-apples-container"> <ul id="menu-apples" class="nav-menu"> // menu here </ul> </div>
So I don’t understand what I would do with the wp_nav_menu_args filter to make all this work properly for mobile.
Thanks for the help.

In reply to: [Connect Matomo (WP-Matomo, WP-Piwik)] Problem adding second domainAlso, the tracking code that shows up in wp-piwik is the same as the one that shows up in the Server GUI itself for this site (and yes, it does show up in the source for the pages of the site). The site has an ID of 7 and the ID shows up in the tracking code:
_paq.push([‘setSiteId’, ‘7’]);

In reply to: [Connect Matomo (WP-Matomo, WP-Piwik)] Problem adding second domainYes, piwik.example1.com is my piwik server.
Regarding the Tracking code …no that’s the problem: the piwik server (pwik.example1.com) is mentioned in the tracking code but example2.com doesn’t appear anywhere in the tracking code. The “Add Tracking Code” dropdown is set to “Default Tracking”. This looked wrong to me but I couldn’t figure out what to do about it.
No, when I said that I added a second domain I meant that I added it in the Piwik GUI as a second domain to be tracked: example2.com is a separate wordpress blog in a separate directory on the same host (not a blog network) with a separate wp-piwik plugin installed, of course.
Thanks in advance for the help.

In reply to: [WP Login Attempt Log] IP Address doesn’t show up in Apache LogNevermind …my bad.
I found it. It was in an older log that had been rotated-out.

In reply to: [Multiple Domain] Links in pagesNevermind… I’ve solved my problem (it’s simple)
Ths solution is to simply use relative paths in the hyperlink instead of the usual (default) absolute ones!

In reply to: [Contact Form 7] Mail Server requirements for Contact Form 7 to workDoes it work well with SMTP Plugin? In other words, do emails have a fair chance of making it past spam filters when it is used with the SMTP Plugin? …or are there other factors (such as dns settings, dkim keys, etc) that have a greater effect on whether or not the email makes it past spam filters? My wordpress installs (several of them) are on a VPS.

In reply to: [Fast Secure Contact Form] Keeping the email out of the “spam” folderHello,
Thank you very much for replying to my question.Before asking this question I did read that page you mention and did not find the answer there. However I understand that the question I’m asking has very complex implications and may be beyond the scope of this forum. Nowadays the whole question of spam filters is a complex one.
Another contact form plugin “Contact Form 7” seems to have this issue quite figured out; that one is integrated with the “postmark” service. But I was wondering if FS Contact Form has thought about this issue.
To be more specific, if I setup wordpress on a VPS (Virtual Private Server) and install postfix for email, is it reasonable to expect that emails send via FS Contact Form will get past Spam filters and reach the recipient’s inbox or are there some minimum requirements that you recommend be present on any email installation?
Thank you

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Compatibility with other security pluginYOUR PLUGIN IS WORKING CORRECTLY !!!
Please ignore the above two posts. I went into my database and saw that the IP’s were indeed banned. I had mis-interpreted my Apache log. In some cases the attacker repeated attacks from the same IP address even though it had already been banned by IQ Block Country!
Thanks for this great plugin. I just submitted a donation!

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Compatibility with other security pluginOkay I’ve definitely observed that “Login Lockdown” does interfere with “IQ Block Country” in some way …though I’m not quite sure how. It’s just that I can see that many, many requests (to my wp-login.php) from many countries are not getting blocked by “IQ Block Country” but they are getting blocked later by Login Lockdown. However many requests ARE getting blocked by “IQ Block Country”. Also, the ones that are getting through are in my “geoiplookup” database so that’s why I think it’s not that they are missing in the database.
I’m a software developer so I can debug this at the code level but I thought I’d ask for your input first. Thanks.

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Compatibility with other security pluginActually …CORRECTION:
The other plugin I was using on that site was “Login Attempt Log”. But the question is the same …I have it configured to block all countries outside of my own but these outside hosts are getting through …just on that one website.But your plugin works fine on another site.

In reply to: [Hide My Site] Is single log-in possible?Well I found the answer to my question. I’m using the “Force Login” plugin – it forces the user to the login page and once they login there they are logged-in permanently. There are many of these force login plugins …this is just the first one I stumbled on.

In reply to: WordPress Importer rejects some jpg’sLittle update here…
I solved this problem by taking a screenshot of the rejected file, then saving it with the same name (and approximately the same size), and the importer accepted it.Surprised that no one else has seen this behavior (or is able to explain it logically)…

In reply to: [Hide My Site] Is single log-in possible?Surprised that no one has a straightforward answer to this.
What I want to achieve is similar to “Evernote” using wordpress. In “Evernote” your data is secure until you log-in. Then you log-in once and you can immediately edit your data.
But with these Site Locking WordPress Plugins, you log-in to see the front page of the site but then if you want to edit the content on any of the pages you have to log-in to the dashboard – two logins every time you want to edit your notebook.
Someone must know of a straightforward approach to this for wordpress…

In reply to: [Hide My Site] Is single log-in possible?Currently using “Hide my site” …was using “Private Only” …both exhibit the same behavior.
