In reply to: Theme adviceJust use DIVI or Elementor at this point and you can make the theme easily what you want. I’ve been doing that for years and don’t look for a theme per se anymore. The pagebuilders are very easy to use, and make life easier down the line.

In reply to: Decrease column padding? (NOT TABLES)hi theres an answer for this for blocks, but I’m avoiding them like the plague.
There, I said it. Sorry wordpress team, I find it unfriendly and avoid it.I disable the block editor and use the classic editor.
For what you need shortcodes are less of a headache.
I’ve started installing shortcodes ultimate as standard kit on my wordpress installs. Ive been building wordpress sites for over 15 years, since 2004. I am actively avoiding the block system. You can too.

I use this plugin a lot. You might find some bells and whistles in there you can use.Shortcodes are just codes that you put in the editor and if you need to learn how to do something, learn how to use shortcodes.

In reply to: Multisite with domain no wordpressThats a really interesting question —
the multisite keeps whatever is in it in one database, so we can’t put the other cms sort of anywhere in the multisite per se.wow thats really tricky — Could you install the multisite in a sub folder and then redirect the subdomains to the sub folder sites?
I’m not sure if that’s even possible, but I would think in terms of the multisite in a sub folder, but that might not work.

In reply to: Post thumbnail is not persistentHi
You know I always find some issues with using any of the built in wordpress image editing stuff. I don’t rely on it.if I’m cropping or replacing an image, I always find it less hassle to do it outside the wordpress editor, and then -critically -change the name or at least add a v1 or v2 so it fully updates the file with a real new name, and then I upload it and insert it where i want it.
In the past when I’ve relied on wordpress to do this for me it fails in crazy ways. I do it externally, and I always make sure to give the revised image a new or at least different name. That helps for asset managment too.
Might not help you but hope it does.

In reply to: Whole website theme got resetHello are you using wordpress on wordpress.com or are you using it on a host that you pay for?
Woocommerce would not have overwritten the entire theme,
do you have a domain pointing to a host?If you are working on your site in wordpress.com – do you pay them and if so there should be a backup, or I’ve found their support helpful.
Best Regards

In reply to: How to format images to fit within different columnsHI age old issue this one
One thing you have to do is make sure the source logo files are sized the same, and the logos added proportionately inside that fixed size. Then they balance out in any grid.
There is no way to just do this with WordPress without sizing the logos in photoshop so they look like that source site you gave.
I’ve had to do this dozens of times.
You have to get the logos into the same and then upload the logo images, and they will all balance nicely.
Slider wise you mean a stack of a few logos and then have that slide?

In reply to: Images blank on pages but ok in librarymake sure you haven’t run. out of space on your hosting. That happens to me more than I can count and then things start disappearing.
You might need to increase your memory limit to 256 mb
Normally my stuff starts to disappear if
1. I run out of space
2 my theme or plugins need an update and I don’t see it.Especially if you are seeing them in the library.
