This is a great video to show how to install and use Firebug. I love it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ojexx4puz8k

There are so many ways this feature can be implemented that I don’t know how to answer your question.

Here is a link to an article by one of my favorite theme developers where they talk about your login and how to protect it. https://www.elegantthemes.com/blog/tips-tricks/how-to-create-a-custom-wordpress-login-url

I use the WPS Login plugin for my sites, but I don’t know what your developer used.

Changing the login URL is the way a reputable designer does it so your designer was smart to do that. However, you should be able to login. Did you follow the https://pajhome.org.uk/crypt/md5 link to enter your password and get the encrypted one to paste into your php database record?

Also, check to be sure you are typing the same username as is in your database.

It is possible that the cpanel you are logging into is not actually connected to your website. This can happen when your website is being transferred to a different server.

Hi Bluecat, thank you. Here is a video that should help you update your password in myPHP. If this works please don’t forget to mark this issue as resolved.

First, I would wait 30 minutes to see if it restores itself. After that I would try the help desk for wherever your website is hosted.

I would think your new website host would be willing to help you out.

If you have access to the cpanel for your website I can help more.

Hi Bluecat, I’m going to take a stab at your problem. I think the hoster who told you to look for php meant there is a file on your server with the name wp-login.php which manages the login process. When your designer changed your login information they may have used a plugin to do so (at least that is what I normally do).

The normal url is https://mywebsite.com/wp-admin or https://mywebsite.com/admin. Your designer can change that to make your website more secure. If you know what url you use for logging on that will help your new host.

If there is a plugin installed then you should be able to just deactivate it.

I like WP First Letter Avatar for client websites, but WP User Avatars is also good.

Just put avatar in the Add Plugin search bar and look through some. I recommend you look for plugins with over 1000 installs with good ratings.

Glad I could help.

I think your problem may be that when you create a new page it automatically appears in your menu and you don’t want it to.

What you should do is create a custom menu. Documentation on how to use menu’s in your WordPress install can be found here https://codex.www.ads-software.com/WordPress_Menu_User_Guide

If you create a custom menu then you would not include your new thank-you/landing page on the menu. That way people won’t even know it is there until they submit your form.

I’m glad. I was going to add that sometimes you need to add !important after the CSS.

padding: 0 !important;

Changing padding: 0 in your CSS should push the slider out to the borders of your body:

.banner .textwidget {
    background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #fff;
    line-height: 1.625;
    padding: 0;
}

What theme are you using?

First, create the image you want to use. In this case the image was cropped to 350 x 350 px. Then upload it to your media library. After you have uploaded the image click on the image and copy the URL of its location. Then go to your widgets in Appearance/Widgets.

The Author widget used was created using a ‘text’ widget. In the Appearance/Widget area pull the [Text] widget into the Primary sidebar area. Then type the title you want (you don’t have to enter a title if you don’t want one). Then in the text area below the title enter code like this (exchange https://www.mywebsite.com with your website name and use the url of your image in the url section for the image after src= ).

Then enter the URL for the page you want the ‘More about me’ link to point to after the a href= section.

You should also check the box [Automatically add paragraphs] at the bottom of the widget so that your paragraph will start on a new line and not butt right up against your image.

Then click Save. Now wherever the primary sidebar is displayed on your website this widget will appear.

?This is my Author information to share with you.
<a href="https://www.mywebsite.com/about-me">More? about? me</a>

I just saw that they are working on fixing the problem.

I use that plugin also and have it installed. When the member adds a profile picture in the styled membership page it disappears as soon as they click save and it never appears in the admin panel. Perhaps it is because I have a multi-use domain. I don’t know, but I had to add a gravity form to allow members to submit a profile image. You should investigate adding that functionality to the plugin, because it is deceiving that it asks for a profile image but never does anything with it.
