Thank you!
Yes, our host allows us to disable WP version as a simple security option so that bots can’t access the WordPress version and use that to determine what vulnerabilities to use to attack the site. It’s a small obfuscation option.
I’ve tried that, but the issue is that there are no tables that are set to table_schema=”defaultdb” I’m not sure where it’s getting that defaultdb value, but it shouldn’t be that.
Hi James,
1.) This error was copied from the WP Debug Log.
2.) I don’t know the inciting action that makes this error appear.
3.) I have submitted the form privately with the requested information.I should note that the database is separate from the server using DigitalOcean Droplet and hosted DB.

In reply to: Change usernameI typically do this in phpMyadmin… I used the WP Users table and change my username there. It isn’t ideal, but it works.

Who is your host? If you are admin, then you should have the option unless you are on WordPress.com or another locked down hosting service.

I have never heard of a selection like this. You might need to contact your host.

In reply to: Website still directing to IP addresses after MigrationThe IP address is the website… But you can do that using the following tutorial depending on what you are using to serve web pages – https://geekflare.com/redirect-ip-request-to-domain-url-test-and-fix-ip-canonical-issue/
Basically it is just an htaccess rule if you are using apache and a nginx.conf if you are using Nginx.

In reply to: Woocommerce Conflict with a PluginYou would have to hire a developer to make that customization for you. There is no easy way that works in all situations to stop a plugin from loading on a single page.

In reply to: Animation Working IntermittentlyIt looks like you are using a slider plugin for this?
I see the following code, which looks good to me, but maybe the JS with your slider plugin isn’t working well:
<div class="mobile-video-image" style="background-image: url(https://web.stanford.edu/group/surf2/cgi-bin/w/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/golden-wave.jpg)"> <span class="ie-fix"></span> </div><div class="video-wrap"><video class="slider-video" width="1800" height="700" preload="auto" loop><source type="video/webm" src="https://web.stanford.edu/group/surf2/cgi-bin/w/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Waves_Cut.webm"><source type="video/mp4" src="https://web.stanford.edu/group/surf2/cgi-bin/w/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/Waves_Cut.mp4"></video>
You have the webm and mp4 video which is great, and the JS looks like it is supposed to swap from image to video, but maybe it fails sometimes? I haven’t experienced it yet. Are you testing with an incognito browser?

In reply to: Amount difference between all posts and published postYou should see other statuses in your WordPress admin. Maybe Draft posts account for the rest?

In reply to: Failed to Import WPtestSo once it is done, you don’t see any content added to your site because those errors aren’t import stopping errors. It basically says the content will be added to your user account and so you should still see the imported content without an issue.

In reply to: Malicious code? Can I prepare?Any time you give someone access to the WordPress admin, you are opening yourself up for that kind of issue. There have been exploits before where people were able to increase their permissions to a site and do bad things. You might want to change how you have it set-up and look at more secure options of doing what you want. Even creating custom roles using a role management plugin.
You can use HTML in a custom link that you add to a menu. So you could do
<img src="fblogourl.png" />
as the Menu text and it should show the image you link to.
