That’s pretty much what I did e.g. Use Filezilla to access the server and simply hit the delete key on each file and folder. I also used cPanel to delete the live database.
But as with everything computer wise – back everything up first!!
or too late even!
lol……….to late now!
Hi,
All done. Although not as simple as I had hoped!
When I first posted my main concern was avoiding duplicate content when bringing back the development site into the live server but once I started the process I decided to [a] backup everything and then [b] delete everything on the live server, so I was starting from scratch.
All went very well until I discovered a lot of missing images and on inspection of the database in phpMyAdmin I discovered over 1000 references to the development URL. I made some ‘manual’ changes to search and replace and that seemed to fix most of the problems.
In the end I still had to make some edits, via the backend, to various URLs in several slideshows and a few broken images.
Most of the time and effort was spent checking every page, every post and every link. But the job is done and the client is happy.
I just need to do this process again and figure out what step I missed (if any) to cause so many URL references to get missed….any ideas?
Very strange indeed….but it turns out to be nothing to do with this awesome plugin!
It was pure coincidence that the connection was assumed. Turns out it was a combination of a server update to PHP 5.3 and a caching error and it took the server engineers a couple of days to work out what was wrong.
As soon as they corrected the caching problem in 5.3 everything returned to normal.
Sorry if I scared anyone ??

In reply to: Visual Editor – how to override a site's theme css?I have only checked about half of them so far and none appear to have such a file available.
I assume that editor-style.css is the route to go then. Meaning such a file could be created and then added to the functions.php page?

In reply to: Visual Editor – how to override a site's theme css?I have emailed the developer of the theme but I am also interested in having the same option in other sites that do not use this theme.
I have over 20 client sites using a variety of free, premium and self made themes and I have always been disappointed with the ‘wysiwyg’ side of WP so this recent update is an improvement but still leaves gaps and I’d like to learn (as I am sure others would too) what is possible when it comes to enhancing the user’s editing experience.
So I ask again – what can be done? Where and how?

In reply to: Visual Editor – how to override a site's theme css?The theme does have its own custom CSS section but there isn’t an editor-style.css file. It’s Custom Community downloaded from the WP theme repository.

In reply to: Update Database fails and can't access Dashboard after 3.5.2 update1. The original post WAS identical to my problem.
2. I found a solution in this forum that required a small update to a database table and that resolved the problem.
3. I have now updated 6 different client sites today. Only the first site had this issue, so I assume some change has already been made to the update files.
4. You may be a moderator but you jumped in with a “you’ve been hacked” scare post which was unnecessary, uncalled for and in my humble opinion ill advised.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Update Database fails and can't access Dashboard after 3.5.2 update@krishna…I don’t think so fella!
After a little research in this forum I found that all that was needed was to use PHPmyadmin to manually edit the wp_options table to make the current database version 22442. Immediate access again.
So I assume someone will create a fix and another update soon???

I have a similar problem with the slideshow. The first three images repeat so the sequence goes 1,2,3,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and so on.
I’ve scoured the forum for Nextgen+slideshow+repeat and I see numerous posts but no answers………has anyone found one yet?
The upload folder and all child folders are set to 755, so that’s not the issue.
Do you want to carry this on in the other forum, or do it by email, or stay here?

In reply to: [FAQs Manager] [Plugin: FAQs Manager] Accordeon does not displayI also have the same issues. The $ to jQuery fixed the first group but all subsequent groups do not appear in an accordion.
Seems like the developer doesn’t respond here? Has anyone managed to fix this?
