• Hello,

    I am new to WP.
    I really like this theme it’s clean, simple and perfect for what I need.

    I have a few questions which I don’t see in the forum. (sorry if they are)

    1. Is it possible to have an option for visitors to Log in so I can store basic info (name, email) in order for me to send newsletters.

    2. Can I integrate a ‘Like button’ to attach on posts?

    Thanks a mil,
    This forum is a great resource for me.

  • Hi Mardoyl… Welcome to the world of WordPress..,

    Of course everthing is Possible in wordpress i guess.. ;P

    1. Is it possible to have an option for visitors to Log in so I can store basic info (name, email) in order for me to send newsletters.

    Ans.. Yes.. if you are intended in sending newsletters then you can install the MailChimp or any other news letter plugin..
    OR
    You can first tick that anyone can register in ur site in General settings and install the Theme My Login plugin (its a gr8 plugin)

    2. Can I integrate a ‘Like button’ to attach on posts?
    Ans. You can install any Social Share plugin like Digg Digg or Social.io ( you get to choose from a wide variety of options)

    I hope this was a bit helpfull to you..

    My Best Regards
    Jessica

    Hi Jessica,

    Thanks again.
    Your advice/suggestions were great!

    Do you know how to edit the ‘powered by wordpress…’ at the bottom of the page.
    I’d like to remove it.

    Thanks a mil.

    Hey Marodyl!,

    Feeling gr8 to know that my suggestion worked out for ya..

    And Regarding that on How to Remove Powered by WordPress… you’ll have to play with a bit of Code.. Not at all Tough unless u don’t Play with anything else..

    For Removing that u’ll have to edit the footer.php..

    Go through the footer.php file with a bit patience and u’ll find it..

    Just replace it with ur own..

    Hope this Helps..

    Regards..
    Jessica

    Hi Jessica,

    Thanks again. Found the footer.php file. I am running a child theme of the theme. Is there another step I am missing? I guess your advise is for the parent theme. Which is very easy to follow.

    I’m having another issue adding the plugin ‘Recent Posts Widget Extended’ into my Posts.

    The widget works fine in the widget sidebar. However, I really want to add it to the posts. I have seen other sites with the same templates as mine using the feature and it looks really nice.

    I know this has to do with the ‘shortcode’. However, I an unable to find what the shortcode is! ahhh ??

    Any help would be great.

    Thanks a mil

    Hey Jessica,

    Hope all is good and well in your world!

    Here is my site. likestartup

    It’s pretty basic at the moment. There’s a lot more i’d like to do with it.

    The site i’m building is documenting startups that are based in Ireland. My goal is to create a directory of new startups & young companies.

    Then get to a stage where people can submit their new ideas to see what the public thinks about them.

    I’m working with a few startups featured on the site to provide discounts/promo codes etc…

    What do you think? (be gentle…) but, I welcome any feedback ??

    Hey Mardoyl.. Hope you had a Spooky Halloween..

    Your website seriously looks AWESOME.. its really lookin gr8 and i obviously like it!

    But.. Theres few things to add in ur website..

    1. You must add a Captcha to ur comment form or u might end up having a lot of Spam comments.. u can use this plugin SI Captcha..

    2. You say that they have to contact u for submitting their Startup.. ( pls note that people are very lazy enough to send u a mail :{ ).. So you add another link in ur menu saying STARTUP?.. You can create a form and add it in that page.. u can use this one for that (dont forget to add captcha.. its built in) Custom Contact Form.

    3. You say “discover startups” but how?? Create another button next to “Visit Site” like “Contact” here u can link either to their contact page like https://example.com/contact but then u get no profit.. So u can create another form and u will get the mail when someone tries to contact and u can inform the site owner and get money! Simple as That..

    Other then that your website is Flawless and Good..

    Best of Luck M
    With Warm regards..
    Jessica
