A Firefox extension was blocking the JS. I will be changing the code from JS to HTML to avoid such blocking. Thanks again for your help.

Needing the % bits only in the post content makes perfect sense. I have corrected that.

The error message is gone, but the form still does not display. The desired code does appear in the source of the page so I suspect it’s out of your hands now. Is that correct?

(I have submitted a support ticket to the entity that provided the code.)

Thank you for your help, David!

At the bottom of the page in the page editor is a heading called Custom Fields. When expanded there are two fields: Name, in which I entered %CODE%; and Value, in which I entered
<div class=”AW-Form-580850878″></div>
<script type=”text/javascript”>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = “//forms.aweber.com/form/78/580850878.js”;
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, “script”, “aweber-wjs-jxor0th8l”));
</script>
Is that what you meant by “…set up the custom field?”

Thank you for your reply Pioneer Web Design.

When it was only me updating the site, I used to manage the PDFs through cPanel. But I need our multiple users to be able to upload and manage via the WP dashboard if practical.

It sounds like the custom directory is the way to go. Can you point me to a tutorial on how to create and use a custom directory in WP? Preferably with a shorter path than /wp-content/uploads/newfoldername/

I appreciate your help!

I know the rules say we’re not supposed to bump posts, but because someone did reply, this issue won’t appear in the Topics with no replies.

Now the issue has remained unresolved for over a week. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

looks like you have resolved the issue.

I don’t understand what you mean. No one has replied and the issue is not resolved.

Thank you for your response, Jacob.

This part [password field being pre-filled] is probably only happening to you because you have a password for your site saved in the browser. New users shouldn’t see this section pre-filled unless you’re site is a subdomain of a domain that they do have a password for.

I am using Firefox. I deleted all saved logins for that domain and cleared the cache. I then created a new user as a test.

When I followed the link in the “Your username and password info” email, the password field was pre-filled and the password was not one I had used before.

Two questions, please:

1. Could the pre-filled password be a “suggested” password? I’m using v4.7.

2. Is there a way to edit the “Your username and password info” email and the RP page?

Thank you for your help.

I found out what the issue is (sort of). Email Address Encoder is working. The email address that I saw not encoded somehow got into a meta tag in the head.

So, everything is fine and I apologize for the trouble. But maybe this could help solve someone else’s mystery in the future.

Thank you.

On the Plugins page under “Email Address Encoder” it reads “Deactivate | Edit” – so I’m assuming it’s enabled.

I was able to import the database – it appeared to be successful.

I am still getting the “Error establishing a database connection” on the front and back end.

I created a new wp-config.php file and tried testconnection.php.

I tried resetting the MySQL password a couple of different ways and get errors doing that. So, I have submitted a support ticket for my host.

But even if I get the database to work, I’m still uncertain the whole site will work because what started all this mess was me trying to change the WP site to a different directory. I probably did something wrong in the attempt to switch.

Now the wp-content folder is in a different directory than the backup file I have, and I’m wondering if file path differences are going to confuse the issue more.

That’s part of the reason why I wondered if I should just restore everything from the backups.

Given those circumstances, should I go ahead and restore the whole set of backups?

If yes, that brings me to my original question – What is a recommended method to restore from the backups I have?

Thank you for all your help!

Thank you, Honey Silvas,

Step 2 reads “Click ‘Databases’ and select the database that you will be importing your data into.”

If that’s the case, will importing into an existing database overwrite everything in that database?

Or do I delete the database and create a new one?

The site is: https://mvuuf.org/search/

A possible clue: When I first moved all the files, I did not move the htaccess file because it was hidden and I did not know it was there.

I then copied everything back to the original location, and renamed the directory.

This is what is in the htaccess file:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /search/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /search/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

I just went ahead and tried it.

It wouldn’t work without !important.

Also, I used em instead of px – is that OK?

Thank you, totaltec,

It looks like that should do it – it’ll be a few days before I’ll have the chance to try it.

After I try it and if I don’t have any issues with it, I’ll come back here and mark it resolved.

I appreciate your help!

Here is a page where I would want to have two different font styles:

https://mvuuf.org/wp/welcome/ministerial-search-committee-profiles/

You wrote: “…wrap the name in a tag that you can target via CSS.”

To do that, would I add the class selector and declaration to Appearance > Theme options > Custom CSS and then add <p class=”whatever”> to the Text tab of Edit Page?

Or would that be <span class=”whatever”>?
