It’s “CSS Media Queries”, in this case it’s used to confine the CSS rules to certain screen width.

When the original CSS is enclosed in media query, we need to do the exact same thing in our CSS to override it.

WARNING : Do not touch the database if you’ve never worked on it before, ask webhost support to help fix it.

Yes for now, revert that change in database will fix this problem we are having. Once you learn how to properly switch the domain, then you can confidently work on the domain change without mistake.

Try this code instead, put the code in Additional/Custom CSS section.

@media only screen and (min-width: 960px) {
	.primary-menu .sub-menu { padding: 5px; }
}

Are you able to access phpMyAdmin? If so just follow the instruction here under the title Changing the URL directly in the database
https://www.ads-software.com/support/article/changing-the-site-url/#changing-the-url-directly-in-the-database

If you are not able to do thing with database, contact your webhost support, ask them to do that for you, it’s an easy fix.

Try this selector instead

.wp-block-table.is-style-stripes tbody tr:nth-child(odd) {
	background-color: #efd6ff;
}

Good decision!

I think you are doing it wrong. Usually we create a page with content intented for website’s front page and then set it as Front page, and then we create an empty page (no content), name it as Blog and then set it as Posts page (this is a so-called Blog page)

see detail here

Creating a Static Front Page

but if you insist to use a category archive link as your main blog page, you can get rid of that “Category” text by putting this CSS into Custom CSS section

.category-blog .archive-title span.color-accent { display: none; }

Yes, while on that post’s editing screen, click on Rank Math button at the top right, select General and see Title, Description and such.

I checked one of your other post and it doesn’t have this same problem. Also, I found on this problematic post the HTML <title> tag displays different wordings than the post title. These lead to the conclusion that there is a setting (possibly from some SEO plugin) that still keeps previous content of this same post before it updated/edited. So please take a look on those SEO settings.

Usually we’d inspect the element with browser’s web dev tool and target the correct element and display:none it with custom CSS. If you provide link to the site (or name of the theme in use), some of us here might be able help with that CSS.

Have you looked on Settings — Discussions and see if Users must be registered and logged in to comment is unchecked?

Other than standard WP setting, you also have ultimate-member plugin installed so it might be the plugin setting that needs proper adjust to allow commenting while not logged in.

Hello @crazykitchenblog , I’m glad you’ve managed to get that post showing up finally.

It’s not shortening the url that makes the 404, it’s the duplicated url issue. From what you described, my guess is that the .htaccess file (server uses it for redirecting when ppl access the web) might get written with some faulty rewrite rules, probably from translation/multilanguage plugin, or it could also be from WP itself —this I’m not certain. So when you change the url to anything different, doesn’t matter if it’s shorter or longer, WP pulls the page normally because it doesn’t repeat (duplicate) the one that’s already there.

Since you have checked the Trash section and confirmed there’s no post with that same url, now we have that particular image as a second suspect. I would delete that image (backup the file first, save that image file into your local machine), rename the file and then reupload, this should clear up the rewrite rule in the .htaccess file that might have caused the problem.

Just FYI, WP automatically adds -2, -3, and so on to the post permalink when we unknowingly create a post with the same url (permalink). Also be noted that not only post/page that has the url (permalink), the media we upload to WP also has one. So when the same url with added -2 can pull something up, this we know that there’s something that has the same url already exists.

I tried adding -2 to the problematic url, like this
{yourdomain}/caramelized-white-chocolate-cookies-2

and it lead to
{yourdomain}/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Caramelized-White-Chocolate-Cookies.jpg.

It’s as if there exists a post with the same url (permalink) that might be in the Trash section or something. So I suggest go look in the Trash section and see if there is a deleted post with that exact same permalink. If there is, just delete permanently.

Also try delete that image, rename the file and then reupload, just to make sure that there is no duplicated url (permarlink).

Anyway, since this only happens to this one post (I guess? cause all other posts with later dates appear normal), why not just delete this post and create a totally new post with the same content but with a new permalink (do not use caramelized-white-chocolate-cookies).

I’m glad you finally got it working!

Good to hear that it works out for you!
