Hi tonygaspar,

Seeing as you’ve deactivated and activated the plugins already, could you please switch to the default WordPress Twenty Twenty theme?

The Darkroom theme is giving a JavaScript error:

If the Darkroom theme is causing these issues, you’ll need to contact the developer, as this forum does not support commercial products. The commercial developer is responsible for supporting their product.

You’re welcome! Hopefully the core constant fixes your problem!

Hey markwordpress1,

You can read more about automatic updates by clicking here. There is a WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE constant or filters you could try.

There’s also the Easy Updates Managerplugin, which allows you to manage the various updates.

I’m sure someone else might be able to explain why you’re having this issue. I know that as of the 5.5 update, auto-updates of themes and plugins now show up inside the WordPress dashboard screen.

Hey OneTech IT,

Yes, running a WordPress caching plugin alongside CloudFlare will definitely improve the performance of your setup.

The caching plugin pre-generates your WordPress content, like posts and pages, as HTML files to make them quicker to access when visiting your site. If not, your server must generate those HTML pages each time your site is visited, which is slower than serving pre-generated HTML pages.

CloudFlare stores and serves your site’s static content like CSS, JS, and images. It’s also possible for CloudFlare to store and serve the pre-generated HTML pages, which you can read about by clicking here.

Just make sure to:

• Only use one caching plugin, such as WP Super Cache. I’ve used W3 Total Cache too. It’s a bit more complicated to set up than WP Super Cache, but has more features and control over how your site is cached and optimized.
• Set up CloudFlare with its Standard caching level
• Use CloudFlare’s Auto Minify and Rocket Loader

This setup seems to work best for the sites I’ve implemented it on. And the performance increase is definitely noticeable, both in web performance testing (using https://gtmetrix.com/, https://www.webpagetest.org/, https://tools.pingdom.com/, and https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/) and perceived performance (you’ll notice a site load quicker, especially if you visit the site a second time).

Best,
Niall

Hi Jerry,

Glad to hear you managed to fix your domain and site.

I’m not very familiar with Plesk, so I wouldn’t be able to answer that. You’d be better off asking in the Plesk Forum found here: https://talk.plesk.com/. I’m guessing it serves the error automatically based off a default template.

Hi 3foldtraining,

Could you please what problem you’re having? And share a screenshot of what exactly is happening with your site?

Hi satimis02, I guess you figured it out!

Great, you’re welcome!

Great to hear, @userauser! You’re welcome!

If your question has been answered, it would be great if you would mark this topic as resolved in the sidebar. This helps the forum’s volunteers find the topics that still need attention and more people will get helped, possibly like you did.

Hi fix0,

Could you please explain how you added a custom type to your site?

• Are you using a plugin?
• Are you using a PHP function?

If this issue only happens when you’re working with a custom post type, then that’s the mostly likely cause.

You’re welcome!

Pretty sure the export format should be “sql.zip” and not CSV format.

I also think that there’s some issue connecting the specified user with the database.

The Duplicator developer has a quick install guide for setting up only the database. You can find that by clicking here.

Or else, you could try using a different plugin like All-in-One WP Migration.

Just to confirm, have you already created a database for your live site, either within phpMyAdmin or using a tool from your web host like cPanel?

@userauser I suggest you set up a container with a set width for the content below your header. That will make it easier to align the rest of the content, such as the sidebar. The issue is that the content can take up the entire viewport because there’s nothing to stop that from happening.

I did this and it seems to work on desktop sizes (I only tested it on https://thecityrenovators.com/ and https://thecityrenovators.com/%d7%a6%d7%95-3-%d7%9e%d7%91%d7%a0%d7%94-%d7%9e%d7%a1%d7%95%d7%9b%d7%9f/):

ADD:
#site-content {
	max-width: 1140px;
	margin: 0 auto;
}

.side-bar-wrapper {
    float: right;
    width: 30%;
}

.post-inner {
    float: left;
    width: 70%;
}

REMOVE: 

#sidebar-primary {
    width: 22vw;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
}

@media only screen and (max-device-width: 1800px) and (min-device-width: 930px)
.side-bar-wrapper {
    display: none;
}

You’ll need to set responsive breakpoints using media queries depending on the screen width to correct the sizing of the .side-bar-wrapper and .post-inner elements. For instance, set them all to a width of 100% for mobile phone screen sizes.

p.s. If you’d like even more control over the layout of your site, you can add the Bootstrap Framework to your site using this guide. The 1140px max-width I chose based on the Bootstrap layout.

You’re welcome satimis02!

Hi gtvision,

Sorry to hear there were issues transferring your site online. It happens to me more often than you’d think, and I’ve been using WordPress for years!

Could you please follow this guide. It shows you how to manually transfer the database using phpMyAdmin. There are also Duplicator instructions if you need them.
