    This ended up being a cache issue. On a browser simply add /?cache=1 to the end of your url or hit the “Flush Cache” selection from the “Manage WordPress” tool on the Dashboard menu.

    I up’d the aspect ratio to 1920 x 1080 and reduced the clips until I achieved 7.4MB, but it still does nothing. I am perplexed! The purpose for that move was to closer meet the required size of 2017’s 2000x 1200 restriction.

    They say using the css way (site-info: none)is SEO sour and if the theme author did not offer an easy click to remove the credits then you should remove or alter it in the footer php file.

    However now that file uses something called partial templates resulting in a footer.php that looks like this:
    </div>
    <footer id=”colophon” class=”site-footer” role=”contentinfo”>
    <?php get_template_part( ‘components/footer/widgets’ ); ?>
    <?php get_template_part( ‘components/footer/site’, ‘info’ ); ?>
    </footer>
    </div>

    What do I do with this to remove the theme and WordPress credits? I’ve been through 5 themes already and they all have that. What is the new fix??? Thank you to anyone that can figure this out!

    I’m also having an image alignment problem with a client site, except it is the same across at least three different browsers. I don’t remember having this prior to the last WP update (4.9.8). In fact all has worked great for months.

    Specifically, my images were reduced & centered within a table row above pertinent data listed in rows below and have been this way for months. I simply used the image edit/center in the classic editor. Now every image done this way is left aligned, even though the “center” option is checked. What’s weird is you can view the page in page preview and it shows it to be centered.

    Its when you view it live that is left aligns. The only change was the update and I have to say sounds like another bug with this update.

    I’ve locked something up Mahesh. So far I’ve created a folder: wp-content that contains 1 file: twentythirteen-child

    The twentythirteen-child folder contains three files:

    footer.php (so I could control the WP branding)
    functions.php
    style.css

    This takes me through steps 1-3 from the link you sent (https://developer.www.ads-software.com/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/), which includes:
    Create a child theme folder, create a stylesheet and enqueue stylesheet.

    At this point I’ve uploaded my child theme to the theme page and activated it. Here were those details:
    Installing Theme from uploaded file: twentythirteen-child.zip
    Unpacking the package…
    Installing the theme…
    This theme requires a parent theme. Checking if it is installed…
    The parent theme, Twenty Thirteen 2.2, is currently installed.
    Theme installed successfully.
    Live PreviewLive Preview “DTS Child Theme” | ActivateActivate “DTS Child Theme” | Return to Themes page

    However, now I can’t open the page or open any page on my administration page.

    Thank you for the links Mahesh. I guess I need to be perfectly clear. I’m wanting to start a child theme for a new WP site that has been created/setup via the hosting account. I’ve never installed a theme by downloading/uploading from my computer and may on the next site, but would prefer not to with this particular site as it means I would be essentially starting it over.

    How do I go about creating/using a child theme in this case as the site is already installed via the hosting site and NOT uploaded from my computer.

    Help is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks for the tip t-p. I’ve only been working in the WP environment for two years and have learned everything the hard way relying on my coding skills, which I understand isn’t necessarily the best way, but its what it is.

    I’m asking two questions.
    1) Am I right in my thinking; it doesn’t exist on my hard drive because I’ve never installed WP from my computer (always from the hosting company).

    2) If I am correct in that thinking can I simply create a “wp-content” directory on my thumb drive to store my child theme and up load to a site I’m currently working on?

    Thanks again for your help!

    teaneedz the same just happened to me only I updated several plugins at once and had to rely on the host tech support to find it. Sure enough it was ewww-image-optimizer! I’m deleting it!
