ack…I’m sorry.. I’ve just now read that post in full. sorry–I understand that the settings have changed now.

thank you, but that link speaks of a functionality in the settings that I don’t see…yes, you can adjust sizes to some media…but there’s nothing in the settings about adjusting the size of embeds

does that mean adjusting by CSS is my only solution?

thanks already for your help!

thanks for replying so quickly, Mr Herman!

But I’ve tried to space things manually. I did have success with indenting the first line manually…but no other attempts worked

DO I need to set the editor in a certain kind of heading (parapragh, heading 1, etc?) Do I need to go in through the text (rather than visual) editor? If so, what code do I need to bracket the pertinent text with so that I can create those indentations?

thanks in advance!

nuts…even saving this forum question creates the same problem! Please go to the link to see what kind of indentation I’m looking to preserve.

thank you for these videos

I’ve inititated the bulk optimization as you recommended. It’s been “interrupted” twice though. Any idea why that might be happening?

thank you…

if I’m getting this kind of feedback from GT Metrix concerning our image optimization, which settings on EWWW must I be sure to effect? (there are so many settings, I don’t know which ones to toggle on)

RECOMMENDATION GRADE TYPE PRIORITY
Optimize images
F (45)
74%
Images High
What does this mean?
Optimizing the following images could reduce their size by 121.5KiB (26% reduction).

Losslessly compressing https://ctktexas.com/wp-content/themes/silverorchid/images/main_bg.png could save 28.6KiB (82% reduction). See optimized version

I feel your pain, too. It’s happening–and only recently after I switched hosting services. Wish I knew what happened and why.

sidenote: wordpress forums need a way to search by how recent the post was published. I agree that seeing 4 year old answers to current questions makes me incredulous about their enduring relevance.

I’d assumed hosting sites were all equal–and they may be once I find out the source of the problems here.

I’m almost entirely ignorant of how to administer PHP, but what setting do I adjust to allow for larger uploads?

thanks for your comment, emember

just tried to install it again…here’s what the process says

I think I’ve answered my own question: the first number pertains to the date, the second the number of visits.

Sorry for my obtuseness.

thanks for following up though!
