In reply to: Update to 4.0 issue – inconsistent file permissionsYes, my point is that WP can obviously modify the wp-content directory, or it would be unusable. So, there must be other directories and files that it is trying to modify during the upgrade. These files and directories are probably not set to 777, which may be what your server setup requires in order to let WP modify anything. Temporarily set the permissions, on all files and folders, and afterward raise them back.
Lower your shields, so you can beam up the away team. ??

In reply to: Not Authorized to View This Page [CFN #0004]This sounds like the setup of your hosting package more than anything else. try adding a directory index to your .htaccess file.
Take a look at this: https://davidwalsh.name/directory-index-homepage-htaccess
I don’t think WP ships with a index.html file. Do you mean index.php?

In reply to: can't fix 302 redirectIs the site directory completely empty? Can you give us a link to this site? I would clean the httpdocs (or whatever your site root is) directory out completely, and delete or temporarily rename your .htaccess file. My suspicion is that the redirect is caused by a PHP file that remains on the server somewhere. You aren’t using a CDN or some other mechanism that has cached something possibly?

In reply to: Update to 4.0 issue – inconsistent file permissionsI’m sure it is referring to some other files than the update-core.php It is probably folder or file permissions of some files that are affected by the update. I would try temporarily setting some wide open permissions, and then locking it back down after the update. What permissions do you have set for wp-content? If you set the other files and folders temporarily to those same permissions I think it will work fine.

In reply to: Video OverlaysThat is going to be hard. At least it would be hard for me. You are going to need to build a custom player I think, or at least use the vimeo API to get data using jQuery. This guy seems to know something about it: https://milocreative.tumblr.com/post/36815014570/how-to-add-subtitles-to-vimeo

In reply to: Video OverlaysYou could position the elements absolutely with CSS and make sure the z-index sets them above the video.

In reply to: Restore or reload deleted library imageI don’t like using files from the image library in my designs, just for this reason. Too easy for some random user with admin access to delete the logo or the header and screw up the whole site! But it does make it easy to change.
Some questions and answers:
Do you have a copy of the header? There is no restore feature that I know of. If you have a nice host they may have a backup of the site that we could dig the file out of. Contact your host, ask if they can send you a zipped backup of your site. Or you can make a new header image fairly simply…You can fix this several ways, the easiest would be to just re-upload the file. Then you can tell WP to look at the new file, under Appearance->Customize or perhaps under Appearance->Theme Options, it depends on your theme.
Or you can do it the permanent way, by editing some code in your header.php and pointing to the new file directly. Otherwise you need to find the interface for designating the header in the admin.
Can you give us a link to your site so we can take a look?

In reply to: Site is unavailableWell before you go editing anything, you want to create a child theme. Follow the steps here: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes
Once you have a child theme going, you can edit your style.css with this code:
.entry-header { text-align: center; }
Once there is a child theme, copy your current theme’s header.php into it. Then you can edit the file, and move the tagline within it.
To delete the link, you need to create a menu, or edit the existing menu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXvj-Ujp1tQ

In reply to: Site is unavailableNo problem. Glad it helped.
I took a screenshot so we could better understand each other and you could explain what you want: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B46HNJGXAQ6gUkVSOGZCbThBSGM/edit?usp=drivesdk
I only see one “Welcome to our website” heading on the page. Are you referring to the menu link as the second one?
Where do you want the tagline to be? To edit it you will need to adjust the header.php file in your child theme. Have you already created a child theme?

In reply to: Site is unavailableIn your first post, I was confused by it because the URL you show is
https://www.tomorrowswirralwomen.org.uk/But the actual URL is:
https://www.tomorrowswomenwirral.org.uk/Correct? Is this the simple problem? ??
Just go back to your themes and activate the other Just Pink theme again. If you want to work with your site without publisjing it live, I suggest a copy of WordPress in a hidden directory or on your local machine using xampp or similar.

In reply to: [Minamaze] How to make the header a link?I love the minamaze theme and use it often. I just looked at how I replaced the logo, in my child theme’s header.php I used this code:
Just after:<div id="header-core">
I have this code:
`<div id=”logo”>
<a rel=”home” title=”All About Electric” href=”<?php echo esc_url( home_url( ‘/’ ) ); ?>”><img src=”wp-content/themes/minamaze-aae/aae-Logo.png” alt=”All About Electric Professional Home Services” /></a>

In reply to: Site is unavailableIt would be helpful to know what you did to take it offline. Is this site hosted somewhere? Is the domain and hosting up to date? To me it acts like WP is not even installed, and it seems more like a hosting problem than anything. When you FTP into your site, are your files still there? I assume WP is installed at the root of your site, what files and folders do you see in the root?
