In reply to: Header ImageI was fortunate enough to receive the answer on a different forum.
I needed to go in to my CPanel and use the file manager. Once there, I used the upload feature to upload the image directly in to the header folder of my theme where the other, existing images are.
The only unfortunate part was that I needed to over-write an existing image in order to apply my custom image. I did save the original image I over-wrote in case I ever want it again.
I hope that helps anyone else facing the same issue.

In reply to: How to add a custom background picture to a page or post?Thank-you very much for catching that! Unfortunately, it was still repeating/tiling the picture.
I have, however, come across this answer that is working:
<div style="background: url(inserted imaeg url) no-repeat; width:300px; height: 401px;"> <p>My text goes here</p> </div>

In reply to: How to align a picture on my right sidebar?I have resolved this issue.
I took:
<div id="sidebar-right"> <?php if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar_right') ) : else : ?>
and changed it to:
<div id="sidebar-left"> <?php if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('Sidebar_right') ) : else : ?>

In reply to: Login Issue and "Crashed" SiteThank-you for the idea. My hosting company, thankfully, was able to fully restore my site (after some-doing on their part). In the end, they don’t know why it crashed either. They have some possible theories, but that was it. My site has been up and running ever since without incident. I also thankfully didn’t need to de-active any plug-ins; but I will consider doing so in the future if I have other issues. The only thing that saved me in all this was having my own back-ups too; I am a believer in keeping back-ups of my website on several personal computer C drives and a USB drive in addition to the hosting company’s equipment. Thanks again for the info.

In reply to: Media Library Uploads Not WorkingI had someone I know help me resolve this.
1) In my WordPress control panel -> Settings -> Media; Uploading Files section, Store uploads in this folder field:
The file path was /wp-content/uploads and needed to be changed to wp-content/uploads (so the first slash before the wp-content needed to be removed)2) I was using the Backup WordPress plugin. That plugin, for an unknown reason, was storing the back-up files in my media upload folder in my C-Panel. Those backup files contained a file that had a deny access control on it.
What he did was create a new back-ups folder in my C-Panel and then moved all of the back-up files from the media upload folder to the new back-ups folder.Once these tasks were complete, my media uploads started working.
I hope this helps anyone who might run into the same issue.

In reply to: How to remove a navigation tab at the top of the pageI most certainly will and the reason I didn’t do so yet is because I wanted to give you the chance to respond so that I knew you know you helped steer me in the right direction!
Thanks again!

In reply to: How to remove a navigation tab at the top of the pageOh, and if anyone is wondering, it is the FlexSqueeze theme that I am using.
That plugin is allowing me to allow those who click on the link at the bottom of my page to see my Privacy Page; but not to have to see it as a tab in the navigation menus.
And because figuring out how to put a link to it in my footer area was also quite difficult, I’ll share how I was informed to accomplish that (which is working for me).
In the footer.php file, you’ll want to add this code:
< a > /”> < ?php bloginfo(‘name’);?> <?php echo stripslashes(get_option(‘flex_foot_links’)); ?>
< a href=”https:// https://www.YourDomainNameHere.com /privacy-policy”>Privacy Policy</p>And that code gets placed under this area like so:
<p>This blog copyright ?
<script type=”text/javascript” language=”JavaScript”><!–
var today = new Date();
document.write(today.getFullYear());
//–>
</script>< a > /”> < ?php bloginfo(‘name’);?> <?php echo stripslashes(get_option(‘flex_foot_links’)); ?>
< a href=”https://www. YourDomainHere .com/privacy-policy”>Privacy Policy</p>(Please note: You’ll need to take out the spaces after:
www. and before .com
in addition to the spaces between < a and the 2 spaces at > < ?php
Plus the 2 spaces between < a >
~ Sorry: I had to post it this way so that you could see the code correctly.)I hope that helps anyone who was just as stuck as I was!

In reply to: How to remove a navigation tab at the top of the pageI really appreciate the offer!
I want to let you and anyone else know, however, that I stumbled upon another free forum and got this question answered!
The fast answer is that it is easily resolved via the Plugin named “Exclude Pages From Navigation”.
I couldn’t find it before because I didn’t think to use “exclude pages” as a search term.The more in-depth answer (including how to edit code) is located here:

In reply to: How to remove a navigation tab at the top of the pageWell, that could be tricky since it was a seminar who set up the site on my behalf so technically the seminar leaders are their customer and I doubt I’d be acknowledged. I’ll give a try though. Thanks for the idea.

In reply to: How to remove a navigation tab at the top of the pageHello! I thank you for replying. The website is positiving.com. Currently, there is a Privacy Policy tab there. I had someone help me put a link to the privacy policy on the bottom of the page, but he doesn’t remember how he removed his Privacy Policy tab and that’s why I’m asking the question.
Basically, I want the privacy policy page to be active and allow someone to go to the privacy policy page when they click on the link ‘privacy policy’ at the bottom of the page, but I don’t want the Privacy Policy tab there.
Anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance!
