[Mr Positive]

Thanks sir good to see you’re back, so my client is planning to buy this theme for his viral site https://bimber.bringthepixel.com/main/ (what is your opinion)

2) They say restrict content pro plugin is not there, didn’t understood what this plugin does, but does Client need this plugin or it’s not needed.

3) If client wants to make quizzes where can find pre made question and images he can use on this site, no copy right issue.

Thanks in advance

Thanks, Festinger. Seeing you do an AMA about WP makes my heart beat a tad faster.

My question is about creating a plugin. I know you're not a coder, but did you maybe hear about a framework that takes care of the WP necessities and allows me to focus on the functionality of a plugin?

Thanks for posting your questions.

1. I will spare you the story of frequently updating your plugins, generate safe passwords and other noob advices... For a lot of projects I am using CleanTalk anti spam and firewall as security plugin, which handles every attack + spam registration for me. Also, I am using CloudFlare to prevent DDOS attacks in combination with WP Rocket, which is a very good combination.
2. Nulled themes / plugins, I am not fan of them anyway. A lot of louche website are uploading a modified version of the original theme and plugin and a few days, weeks or months later, your website has been hacked. You cannot verify the intention of such people and therefore I have never used a nulled or pirated version on a live website. On some occasions I will test these out on my localhost to see if the plugin or theme is what I am looking for, but I will never use a nulled or pirated version online.
3. Actually, I don't think it's the 'best' platform. The reason why I am using the platform, is that it's by far the most popular platform and the developed plugins are endless. I am not a coder, so I am trying to achieve my goal by using the right plugins. But the main core of WordPress can be improved a lot IMO, stripping all the unused things, just like the outdated comment section settings...

Cleantalk; amazing plugin! I found it a few weeks ago and it’s stopoed ALL of the spam form submissions.

By sticky add to cart and variation swatch bar i mean a bar that is not fixed that always stays at the bottom of the screen

I have seen such theme with a fixed sidebar that represents the cart, but I cannot remember the theme, sorry.

What is the best FREE SEO optimized wordpress theme ?

Sorry, I don't use free themes, so I cannot advice you in this matter.

Thanks sir good to see you’re back, so my client is planning to buy this theme for his viral site https://bimber.bringthepixel.com/main/ (what is your opinion)

Yes, the BIMBER theme is really nice. Unfortunately, I don't have this theme in my private collection, but I have used it before. With Restrict Content Pro (I got a license with them, so I can provide you a free copy) you can start a membership website and enable payment gateways. Is this something that your client is interested in?

Hi,

Can you Suggest me Free and paid Live Chat plugins?

And Also can you suggest me Free and Paid Chat Bots plugins too?

https://www.olark.com is the best live chat plugin IMO. It's the best because you can integrate it with so many other CRM plugins for example.

How do you deal with gdpr?

Oh, the GPDR... unfortunately, I have to deal with that too. I have terms of use, cookie policy and privacy policy generated from a well-known Dutch website which provides legal documents. They have been checked by a lawyer and online I am using the following plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/uk-cookie-consent/

hmmmm there is no difference. I thought that it might something made for this kind of websites
so any suggestions on how to make my own plugin?

Sorry, I cannot help you in this matter as I don't really understand what you're trying to achieve, sorry.

What are the first things to do when we set up a new WP blog ?
What are the essentiel plugins that every WP blog must have (security,,,) ?

• Safe admin account password.
• Install SSL.
• Delete / deactivate all unneeded plugins.
• Choose a optimised theme for your purposes.
• Upload unique content, install SEO plugin and start your SEO journey.

Whats the best way to add previous and next buttons under a picture , i tried some plugins and they never aligned properly?
Is there a way to set these previous and next buttons to automatically switch to next or previous post in the same category or do you have to manually edit the buttons every time?

What theme or plugin are you using?
In other words, how do you display these images on the website?

My question is about AMP

Should I install it?

I have never tested it before, to be honest... I will give it a try and I will share my experiences later on.

Thanks, Festinger. Seeing you do an AMA about WP makes my heart beat a tad faster.

My question is about creating a plugin. I know you're not a coder, but did you maybe hear about a framework that takes care of the WP necessities and allows me to focus on the functionality of a plugin?

You can start with Gantry for example. Please make sure to choose a framework that is lightweight.

Cleantalk; amazing plugin! I found it a few weeks ago and it’s stopoed ALL of the spam form submissions.

Yea, CleanTalk is an amazing plugin!

Well done op, wealth of information in this thread. I will be following and adding my own set of questions soon!

Sure, feel free to ask them anytime.

hi @Festinger thanks for this awesome thread.. can you suggest an easy theme for newbie to work on to... im trying to learn wordpress and i learn a lot by just reading your post

You're welcome. The Salient theme is a good theme to start with.
https://themeforest.net/item/salient-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4363266

I've seen many content ordering sites. how to make one like that where a client can order/buy content and pay using direct bank transfer or Paypal ?

This is possible with any WordPress theme, but if you're looking into a more writing service theme, I'd suggest the following theme:
https://themeforest.net/item/hala-multipurpose-onepage-multipage-theme/19116816

Make sure to check out the different payment gateways for WooCommerce.

[Samurai-champloo]

can you recommend some more writing service themes?

 

[Mr Positive]

Awesome thanks for the feedback, so restrict content only comes in use when we need to collect payment right, then client won’t need it, idea is to use the theme upload unique content, and add quizzes and make money from Adsense. Thank you sir much appreciated.

 

[Deleted member 752298]

can you recommend some more writing service themes?

I have used this theme as well in the past:

Yes, that's right. If you don't need to collect payments, you don't need to have the restrict content pro plugin. Good luck with your project.

You have to include whatever you gather into your legal documents.
