Hi!

Both the issues you describe could be due to incorrectly configured caching. Here’s what I would recommend checking if you haven’t already:

1. If you make changes to your site that are not updated when you load the front end, first use the caching plugin settings to delete/flush the cache, then load the page in incognito mode and use the “Empty Cache and Hard Reload” function. This will ensure you are actually seeing the current version of your site and not what your browser has cached. If you are not seeing what you expected, then you know it must be an issue on the site.
2. Try disabling all WordPress based caching plugins (eg WP Super Cache) and any CDN caching (eg Cloudflare). Then load the site via a private browsing mode like incognito mode in Chrome to see if the site works normally.
3. Make sure you are only running one WordPress caching plugin at a time.
4. If you are also using a CDN such as Cloudflare, look at your cache plugin documentation, it will usually tell you what settings to use at your CDN to avoid issue similar to what you describe
5. If you deleted the Advanced Cache plugin files without first deactivating the plugin through the WordPress dashboard, or turning off the cache, this could leave caching instructions in system files such as .htaccess that will cause conflicts with other caching plugins. If you suspect this is the case, reinstall advanced cache and uninstall it through the WordPress dashboard, this should clear up any residue. This applies to all caching plugins.
6. Try posting in the Wordfence forum (https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/wordfence/) and check out their FAQ to see if anyone there has experienced similar. But it does sound like a caching issue.
7. If after that you still have issues, post back and tell people what you have tried. If you post a link to the site it can also help, without that we are just guessing.

Until you find out a way to do this in your theme or menu system, you can hide the link by adding some custom CSS:

span.header-account-title {
    display: none;
}

This will hide that link, but it may also hide other objects. If you find it does, just delete the code and it will revert to the current set up.

Hi… Add this to custom CSS:

ul#menu-footer li {
    text-align: center;
}

Hello, the effect is called “parallax scrolling”, if you search for something like “parallax scrolling background” hopefully you can find a plugin that way.

If you already have an image in place on your site, it can usually be adjusted to parallax scroll by adding a couple of lines of CSS. Here is an example tutorial you can play with: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_parallax.asp

Hello, here’s the dedicated WooCommerce support forum, it is more probable someone there can point you in the right direction: https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/woocommerce/

I think this is very subjective and depends on the individual’s preference and the general look and feel of the site.

Personally, in 2023, I now use full width and a text size relative to horizontal viewport width, using the css clamp function to keep it sensible and accessible. I use 3 breakpoints for these sizes. For some business-to-business sites I use a max width of 1920px for non full width content because I assume they are at a desk and close to the screen.

I mainly use a 4K screen but rarely browse full screen mode – right now my browser is around 60% – but understand that 4K could be someone on a sofa 10 feet from their smart TV or a gamer 10 inches away from their monitor.

Basically, for me, there is no right or wrong answer to your question, only opinion. Hopefully you can get some others!

.post_detail.post_comment {
    display: none;
}

Adding this to your CSS should do the trick.

Hello, for the first question, you can create a template for custom post types, you can usually clone your theme’s existing single.php template as a starting point: https://developer.www.ads-software.com/themes/template-files-section/custom-post-type-template-files/

The form and where and how data is displayed would depend on the way you use forms and what your want to display. You could use your own PHP scripts and database tables or leverage WordPress’s built in support for custom data tables with the dbDelta function, or you could use a plugin like Contact Form 7 which lets you embed forms in templates https://contactform7.com/faq/can-i-embed-a-contact-form-into-my-template-file/. There are many tutorials and third party plugins to integrate contact form 7 with your database.

Hello, I hope you can translate this, I am sorry I cannot reply in Italian.

For the description shown in search results, you need to edit the meta-description tag on each post or page. There are a few ways to do this depending on how you prefer to work. If Google can’t find this, it will usually just use the first passage of words it can find on a page.

The simplest way to control the meta-description yourself can be to simply change the “excerpt” of your post/page, you can do this under settings on the edit page for each post or page. This will work in most cases.

If you want more control with an easy to use interface, there are lots of SEO plugins that can walk you through changing how results are displayed in search engines. Yoast SEO is a popular one, and the free version can do what you require.

If you prefer to code, you can explore adding some code to a child theme that will allow you set a custom field for a meta description.

Yes, the second paragraph after the list explains the steps in words, so…

(Step 1 )Insert a video block. (Step 2)Then after this, inset a text block with a transparent background and give it negative margin so it appears over the video. Finally use JavaScript to trigger both the (Step 3.1) text to fade and the (Step 3.2) video to play when the text is clicked.

There are a few ways.

First break down the task into smaller tasks.

1. Insert a video
2. Insert text
3. On click (1) Fade text and (2) Play video

One solution, using WordPress blocks, could be:

Insert a video block. Then after this, inset a text block with a transparent background and give it negative margin so it appears over the video. Finally use JavaScript to trigger both the text to fade and the video to play when the text is clicked.

Or, if you do not want to code… you could make a video thumbnail with the text on it.

LCP Is 1.8s when I run lighthouse (Mobile). The LCP in my Lighthouse run has been selected as the first image on the page (the jeep), It is displayed at 301 × 201 px, but the image is 1536 × 1024 px. You could make the source image smaller instead of resizing with styling, but really it is an excellent score as it is.

Hi,

To find out what page is being used for your homepage in WordPress head to the admin menu (Settings>Reading>Your Home Page Displays). There are two options “Your Latest Posts” and “A Static Page”.

If “a static page” is selected it will show you which page is being used, and you can find this in your pages tab on the admin menu,

If “Your latest posts is selected”, WordPress will be using a template to display your posts. Check your theme files for a blog page template that could be being used (Admin Menu>Appearance>Theme File Editor), this template file is usually called “home.php”

It looks like you are using the Divi theme, so your home page (blog page) layout could be controlled from the Theme Builder section (Admin Menu>Divi>Theme Builder). For help with Divi which is a commercial theme, there is a support tab under the Divi tab in your admin menu, or you can try their Elegant Themes forum: https://www.elegantthemes.com/forum/

The images do not load for me on desktop Chrome.

Your images are served over http (insecure) as opposed to https (secure).

Although your website page has https in the address bar, you need to ensure all the URLs of content on the page use https.

Some browsers block this kind of mixed content, others just block all http content.

In short, you need to update your site to use https for everything. You can find lots of guides to do this in bulk on the net by either editing your .htaccess file, or using a search and replace plugin. Backup your database first if searching and replacing.

Occasionally, and I emphasise occasionally, this can actually be as simple as ensuring both the web address in your WordPress admin section uses https. (Admin Menu>Settings>General Settings> “WordPress Address (URL)” and “Site Address (URL)”)

To find out the affected images you can open developer tools on your browser and look at the list of errors in your console. You have disabled right clicking on your site so will need to find the keyboard shortcut for your browser, usually Option + ? + J (mac), or Shift + CTRL + J ( Windows/Linux).
