Hi Huberte,

Switch to Text mode on the post you’re working on. Wrap the video in this tag:

<span style="text-align:center; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;">
/*video goes here*/
</span>

Hopefully this works for you.

Ah, I am not sure. I am not very good with CSS either.

Try pasting this into the Customize CSS section:

img { border: none !important; }

Forcing HTTPS to HTTP is a very bad idea and Google will heavily penalize your site for that. If you don’t want Google to index the HTTPS version of your site (HTTPS can lead to lower AdSense revenue because the inventory is slightly smaller), you can set the preferred version in Google Webmaster Tools.

If you want to disable HTTPS completely, check with your web host if they have installed an SSL certificate for your account and mirrored your HTTP site to it. I know that Dreamhost has an option for this, but I can’t speak about other hosts. Deleting the certificate will disable the HTTPS version of your site and Google will start showing the HTTP version in a few days or a couple of weeks. Please note that redirecting HTTPS to HTTP will show warnings in every modern browser, hence it’s not recommended.

I no longer see the test post in your sidebar, but the error seems to be back. Guess you’ll need to publish some posts and the sidebar widget will eventually populate itself.

You don’t have to use any plugin for your feed. Popular caching plugins like WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache, Hyper Cache, etc. will also cache rss. Do you use any of these? If yes, do check their settings to purge the cache.

I ran your site through Pingdom Tools, and it looks like your website has a very high response time (but the subsequent resources load quickly). Mind that the response time will be even higher when you’re logged in because WordPress doesn’t cache anything for logged in users and has to process a lot of PHP for every page load. Try loading your page in an incognito tab and it should load faster.

If you aren’t already, you should start using a caching plugin like WP Super Cache and complement it with something like CloudFlare. That will bring down response times by a lot. Also check online reviews of your web host, and switch if they’re shitty.

Could you post a screenshot of how the posts are “running off the page”?

If you’re using a caching plugin, clear the cache and the test post should be automatically removed from the feed. Or you can just wait for the cache to expire and get primed again.

I have no knowledge of PHP, so please excuse if you’ve already tried this. The Codex page on child themes recommends this :

function theme_enqueue_styles() {

    $parent_style = 'parent-style';

    wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'child-style',
        get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
        array( $parent_style )
    );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'theme_enqueue_styles' );

Using ‘parent-style’ as a dependency makes sure the child theme’s style.css loads after the parent theme’s style.css. It seems like you’re not using the parent-style and child-style dependencies. Could you check if this works?

Can you check if your child theme’s style.css is loading after the parent theme’s stylesheet? I understand that using @import to import your parent theme’s CSS to child theme is not the recommended way, but you could still try it and see if that works.

And if you use Jetpack, you can activate the Custom CSS module and you can edit CSS without needing to create a child theme.

Hi RwkY,

The ClouFlare plugin for WordPress has an option called HTTPS protocol rewriting. Have you tried turning it on?

Hi Crazy In The Rain,

Does this option not show up under Settings > Media? If it does, you’ve to turn it on. https://i.imgur.com/nHzNU9u.png

Here’s the screenshot for the block settings:

I chose the Float Left block alignment option, and now the ad doesn’t load. That’s probably because it’s a responsive ad.

I have no-aligned the image and will make sure to keep images no-aligned in the future.

Thanks for the help.

The ad inside the post gets displayed over the third paragraph.

I am not sure what you mean by block settings.
