I have removed Nitropack for the time being, and am left with this error:

Warning: array_intersect(): Argument #2 is not an array in /home/travelexpo365/public_html/wp-content/plugins/elementor/includes/user.php on line 128

Thanks. I really wasn’t convinced by iFrames, but the client sees it as a way of having everything in WordPress. My own view is that its a lot of potentially unnecessary reinventing of the wheel.

I remember frames from the much earlier days of the web, and how they came to be universally derided. My understanding was that iFrames were a bit better, but really as a tool for displaying content from another site within your own site.

To use them to display our own pages within our own WordPress pages seems a little nuts, or is that just me?

Do you know a good place to read up on how to use those actions? That’s something new to me. I’m OK creating child themes and editing template files though. I’m just a little wary of potentially breaking something as WordPress is pretty complicated with include files all over the place.

I’m used to using Dreamweaver (although mostly code view, I used it originally for the old Macromedia server extensions for doing all the SQL stuff that Adobe have long since dropped. And for a long time now Web Assist’s extensions for all of that. It tends to put all the relevant PHP stuff above the <header> element. I guess a lot of it can go anywhere, but sometimes it seems quite picky in the order of PHP code blocks.

Perfect – thank you!

Ah, sorry Dimitris – I changed couple of things.

Try this page here:

I would have expected the style to the the same by default, but the custom sidebar on the left is a bit different. Doesn’t need much really – just ‘Recent Posts’ as more of a header, and a bit of spacing between the header and the stories, and bit of a space between each story.

Thanks Mikey – I’ll investigate that avenue. WordPress is great for all sorts of reasons, but sometimes its trickier to get to the root of something compared to regular HTML / CSS!

It seems to be working with Up Sells, but not Cross Sells….

Found it – it was actually generated by MailChimp, not the plugin.

Just to say I found it – there was a setting in the Theme settings that was overriding the other things I’d tried.

I have re-entered the SES credentials, and also tried new credentials.

I first noticed it after adding an email address to handle bounces, and the error advised that that email might be causing the problem, and to delete it. (Although then what happens with bounce handling?)

But after I removed it, I was still getting the SMTP connection error.

Am I correct in thinking that if I am using MailPoet and Amazon SES, I don’t use Amazon’s bounce handling, so switch that off on the Amazon side, and should use an address within MailPoet on the WordPress side?

I really don’t know what is causing this – all I know its that we did successfully send some test emails a few weeks ago, and now without changing anything (except upgrading WordPress and MailPoet), it no longer works.

Do you have test accounts for this sort of thing from which you could advise all the settings on required on both the Amazon and MailPoet side that I can check?

I noticed today that it wasn’t connecting to Amazon SES – sounds like it might be an issue with the new version.

We moved to MailPoet quite recently, had it all set up and working, and now we’re ready to start actually sending, its no longer working. This is after spending a good chunk of time merging and deducing various historical lists into a shiny new list. Frustrating.

Post back here if you come across a solution or fix, and I will to.

Figured it out eventually – there was a theme setting for Number of posts to display on archive pages that was overriding everything else.

Thanks James – I’ll have a play around with a couple of tests and go from there.

Thanks James.

I followed the links through and ended up on one on Multi site networks.

But it seemed to suggest the sites needed to be on subdomains or different paths on the same domain, eg

subdomain1.mysite.com
subdomain2.mysite.com

Or

https://www.mysite.com/path1/
https://www.mysite.com/path2/

But can it work with:

https://www.mysite1.com
https://www.mysite2.com

Thanks – I had a quick look and some look quite good, but presumably you are limited to the database tables / fields that come as part of the theme.

Unfortunately we already have a fairly complex database structure – there are the properties themselves, and the owners can log in and update all their details. And there are other users who can log in and vote for the properties in various categories.

Thanks – so as long as the tables for all the other data are part of the same main WP database it should be fine?

I guess I’m just thinking about how it all fits together on pages themselves – for example, if I create a page in WordPress which has the navigation and bare bones layout, can I edit that page in, say, Dreamweaver, and add in data from the tables containing the holiday property stuff?
