Hello Nukak,

The problem has been corrected. The mistake was mine. Here is the mistake I made.

Word Press General Settings has a field named Administration Email Address. What I now realize is that Contact 7 uses this admin email address. The mistake I made was to assume Contact 7 used the SMTP Username file in the Easy WP SMTP settings.

To resolve the problem, I just had to add the correct email address to the Administration Email Address field. I am now able to successfully use Contact 7 form.

Thank you for helping me resolve this problem,

Ian

This means each time I migrate the website from development to production environment that I have to re-install Google Analytics. Thanks for the answer.

I was finally able to get FooGallery to display the images by changing the permissions on the graphic files from READ-ONLY to READ-WRITE.

I had originally done this to the entire directory containing the graphic images but this did not resolve the problem. What I did today was to selectively change the permissions on each graphic file.

Elvis,

Let me know when you have checked out the URL: https://www.virusfraud.org/signs/

I will then remove this page from the website until the problem is resolved.

Thanks,

Ian

Hello Elvis,

You wrote, “…needs to match your HTTPD use…”. If I understand correctly, HTTPD applies only to a server running Apache. I should mention now that my website is running on a Windows server. The control panel for my web host only let’s me can change the directory/file permissions to READ or READ/WRITE but I do not see a way to set permissions with actual numerical values.

Thanks,

Ian

Hello Elvis,

The URL is: https://www.virusfraud.org/signs/

When the page is first displayed, small boxes are shown. When the page is then refreshed, large empty boxes are shown.

Thanks

Thanks Kartik. You pointed me in the right direction. My website is hosted on a windows server. This means my WordPress website must include the file ‘web.config’ with particular settings. I created this file and placed it in the main directory that contains my WordPress website.

The contents of web.config that worked for me are as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
            <rules>
                <rule name="Main Rule" stopProcessing="true">
                    <match url=".*" />
                    <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
                        <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" />
                        <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" />
                    </conditions>
                    <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" />
                </rule>
            </rules>
        </rewrite>
        <staticContent>
            <remove fileExtension=".svg" />
            <mimeMap fileExtension=".svg" mimeType="image/svg+xml" />
        </staticContent>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

You should update your web.config now WordPress Permalinks

Thanks for mentioning the point about absolute links. I’ve been so preoccupied with learning and testing WP that I have not yet thought about how links are defined. I have been using relative links. Now I have another item on my TO-DO list that needs to be corrected.

I will be manually migrating the website from my desktop to my web hosting company. If I understand you correctly, it will be my responsibility to remove ‘localhost’ in all URLs. This is what I needed to know.

Thank you,

Ian
