Hi I have recently built a WP site for a charity my problem is I would like to feature Twitter feeds in the Right Hand Column of the home page I have used the Max Magazine Theme and I cannot find a way of doing this. I can use a plugin to place feeds in the footer but down the RH side alongside the slider and the Carousel would be ideal if you can help me I would appreciate it.

Either insert the Twitter timeline script to a module (if supported by the theme, would guess most likely yes), or just insert it into the actual code of the theme.

Does your theme have a sidebar widget?

I have a WP site that doesn't respond properly when I make changes to it. I changed the social sharing plugin but the old one is still there, also I put banner code in the sidebar but the banner doesn't show up.
Tried to add a new page but that doesnt show up either.
Is there any way of resetting WP without losing all of your content?

Gogol · Nov 14, 2013

That's most probably due to cache. Does your wp have W3 total cache or something similar installed? Do you use cloudflare or google pagespeed?

You're not getting what i was trying to explan. when a new user sign up they are sent an activation email by wordpress to verify their subscription, I noticed that the link being sent to new user's email contains an activation code that must be verified on a page named "activation". When I first installed version 3.6.1 version of wordpress this page was there by default and users' account activation process works fine, as soon i Installed the new version this page was no longer available. i hope someone with an expirience in wordpress will understand me. I'm not a coder in anyway I need help please. This and other one issue issue are giving me a serious headache. The other issue is the about buddypress refering to single person as "their" in the activity page instead of "his/her".

Have you tried creating another Activate page and then selecting that page in the settings? This should work.

Buddypress can't and won't differentiate between male and female users (there's no way they could implement this and tell if a user is male or female) and therefore they have chosen 'their' which represents both sexes.

Yes I did have W3 but I had to delete it from my cPanel, couldn't even get into my site when I had it on, although it did work for a long time before it broke.

I need to install a lot of wordpress on subdomain , what is your recommend on this ?

is there a oneclick install ?
that i can fill all from subdomain ,title, admin , pass .

Gogol · Nov 25, 2013

It has a cache folder somewhere in the wp-content, but I can't remember where. Delete that folder and you are good to go.

If you are using CPanel, look for fantastico( or something similar... One click installers are what you are looking for). Provide your folder and the software will automate the process for you. Installing wordpress manually isn't a really tough job btw..

I'm currently working on a site that will have mostly static content done with pages, but I'd like to have the most recently updated ones (maybe five or so) appear in home page in the same manner as most recent posts do. What plugin would you suggest for that?

Hi everyone.

I hope someone would be able to help me with my question.

In my query below, it displays all the posts under a specific category without any problem.

Code:

<?php				$catquery = new WP_Query( 'cat=30&posts_per_page=-1' );
				while($catquery->have_posts()) : $catquery->the_post(); ?>
					<div><?php the_content(); ?></div>
				<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query(); ?>

What I wanted to do is, display all the post under a specific category ONLY from the current month of the current year.

For example, it is now December, I wanted to display all the posts from the month of December ONLY. All the posts from Novermber, October etc would show.

What should I add on my current query?

Thanks,
Jayson

Posts vs Pages: I was wondering about this recently when I found the info on google webmaster tools that I'm having 12 links on my site to another site when it really is only 1 link in 1 of my blog posts.

I'm currently creating some information blogs about various topics. So it's not like I'm posting stuff for years, but more or less try to find everything possible on the topic and related topics and cover it in different posts. I'm now just wondering if it is a problem when I use the Wordpress posts system instead of the sites system. Blogposts can be found at:

- the blog
- the post's categorie(s)
- the post's tags
- the post's page itself

So I'm wondering: Is google having a problem with that and are links recognized as spamm when they can be found at so many positions (even if it's really just 1 link on different locations, see the list). Same about keyword content. Is google choosing the correct pages of the blog or will it mark the posts page as 'duplicate content' when it finds the same article on the blog of the site (which can't be optimized for a keyword since there are many different articles)?

I'm really not sure about this. I think it's far better for users if I use the blog system (categories alone are so usefull) but I wonder if search engines are doing fine with this.

An option that crossed my mind: blocking spiders from the blog/category/tags sites. Is that a good idea?

Thanks for your advice guys!
