Hello,

Here is a good project you can use on your WordPress website to train AI.

This plugin helps you to export WordPress content in a structured JSON, which AI engines can use easily. You can also use it for fine-tuning or other needs.

Hi WordPress team members,

I am facing the above issue on my website. My pages, blogs are not loading properly and I am not able to properly rectify the issue. Need assistance urgently whether this is any plugin issue or what?

This is my domain: https://www.indiantravelpackage.com

I live in Iraq, and setting up a payment gateway has been a nightmare. Most providers require documents for a physical business location, which makes no sense for an e-commerce website. They just don’t get that online stores don’t need a physical place (what a joke!).

Has anyone here successfully set up a payment gateway that supports Iraq for an online business? Any recommendations for providers that actually understand e-commerce?

Thanks a lot!

I am a product designer and I'm curious to know if agencies here go through a design process which adds a lot to the project budget or just use a theme and override the brand style and content? It just seems that most responsive website are similar in terms of layouts and breakpoints and there is really not a lot of creative freedom when designing websites.

*No Page Builders please!

So I want to build a website between these three theme builders (Unless their is a better theme). I want to know which offers the best FREE solution and which offers the best customizations meaning that it doesn't have limitations when it comes to building.

*Note

I have Bricks at the moment but only have one lincese and saving that for another website that I like to build. So I'm asking which Theme comes closer to Bricks because Gutenberg kinda sucks when it comes down to building complex design.

Can anyone recommend a reliable WooCommerce checkout fields plugin that actually supports conditional logic and works properly?

I bought the Flexible Checkout Fields Pro plugin because it claimed to do this, but it’s buggy as hell and just doesn’t work. I’ve wasted hours troubleshooting, tried several free alternatives, and even attempted writing custom scripts with ChatGPT nothing worked.

At this point, I’ve lost six hours on this, but my client only quoted me three. On top of that, I’m out of pocket for the Flexible Checkout Fields plugin. Honestly, I’ve lost trust in these premium plugins, but I still need a solution.

If anyone has used a solid checkout fields plugin with working conditional logic, please let me know I’d be massively grateful!

Thank you! 🙏

I tried searching but everything I can find is for .org and I use .com for hosting. I want a dark mode - not just a color scheme, for my admin dashboard.

I often write at night and the white is so harsh. I've searched for everything and suspect it's not possible but figured it was worth asking.
Thanks in advance!

On a new website - when I create a post with a sub-category
ie
/main-category/sub-category/post-title/
The /main-category/sub-category/ doesn’t display the archive of posts in that sub-category – ie page not found when trying to display the archives of that sub-category

but /sub-category/title displays… (with the main category being removed)
How do I fix it so that the full URL structure displays and shows the archives in the sub-category?

Astra Theme
Permalinks /%category%/%postname%/

I have switched to 2025 theme but same problem.

I'm looking for a theme that looks like a facebook post.

What template did White House.gov use for the website?

Hello everyone. I want to tell you about my journey so far with my blog. I started developing the structure and idea for the blog in September 2024. I'm passionate about finance and investing. I live in Brazil and have been working in media for almost a year. So, I have experience with websites and WordPress. However, at the company we work with other niches.

My plan:

1 - Create an identity for the blog. Format, images and content. 2 - Create a community and increase LTV. 3 - Generate value first and understand what products/services to offer in the future.

Initial income sources:

1 - Google ADS, the most obvious. I tried for a first approval and was rejected. The blog was too raw indeed. I went back to work.

2 - Affiliates, I started using my Amazon affiliate links in some articles. But, without being too intrusive.

3 - E-mails, I intend to capture and build a relationship with my audience via e-mail. Since this is an area where I also work at the company.

Scalability:

1 - Social media, I'm on: Medium, Substack, Primal and Reddit. I post micro content of value connecting the audience to the site.

2 - Sub domain, the idea is to have a sub domain in English and one in Spanish. With content focused on the target languages.

3 - Acquisition. When approved on Ads. I will generate campaigns to attract people to the site. But, I only recommend it if you have experience with it.

Challenges:

1 - The politics in Brazil, at this moment is very sensitive. The word dollar has censorship here. This delayed me because my site has the word in the domain.

2 - I had trouble finding the best content structure for each topic I write about. But, now it worked.

3 - Distribution. I create mega content and scale it to micro and medium content. I distribute it on 5 platforms in several different accounts. This is tiring. It's been 6 weeks doing it. I need to find balance. Since I create and schedule everything on Saturdays.

Numbers:

GSC - Impressions 888, Clicks 44, Average position 29.6, CTR 4.5%.

It hasn't been easy. Mainly because of the censorship. But, when I tried to put Weglot and added the English language. My reach improved and I gained more visits. Excited and happy for everything. Share and let's talk a little bit about it.

Hello everyone.

I just got a client requesting their website to be made in WordPress, however, it's been so long since I last used it (5-6 years maybe?).

I have an account that I never deleted but when it comes to clients I totally forgot how to work with their websites.

Do I have to create a separate WordPress account for them, or can I simply use my account > new website & new domain > create admin user within new website and domain?

Will that work for them to manage it as well?.

The Hosting and domain purchases will be handled by WordPress as well.

Hopefully you guys can help me remember because I totally forgot.

Hi, I need to redesign my company's website because honestly it's pretty awful and on the backend it's a mess. It's basically an ecommerce site, but I added so many plugins and custom code that anytime I need to work on it it's kind of disheartening and I avoid it. So I would prefer starting from scratch.

I tried many themes in the past, but this site has been running on Blocksy Theme, and I don't like it. It's missing lots of things that I tried to fix with code and plugins.

I know there's not one theme that has it all, but what's the closest?

- Ecommerce oriented
- At least some decent portfolio options
- Lightweight and fast
- Under $200

Thanks

Hey Folks,

I need your advice on how to add a simple Burger Menu with the Salient Theme. Currently i have a Menu with the Position "Off-Canvas-Menu" and this has the Settings that it Should be a simple Dropdown.

So how is it to create a simple dropdown Burger Menu? Or perhaps what are the Options with Salient here?

Thanks!

Has anyone here had a problem with Fluent SMTP occasionally changing the Postmark API code, usually, to four figures?

It seems to be happening periodically.

I'm on litespeed servers with litespeed cache.

Hi everyone! Need advice from the pros. I'm a newbie in the VPN and Wordpress world so the simpler the feedback the better.

When I try to make payments with my VPN active, pretty much every site rejects it, and the bank blocks my card. I want to register on Wordpress anonymously so my site can't be so easily tracked to me. Besides crypto, what options do I have to make it happen?

Thank you, all!

Hi! I'm looking to add appointment/session booking functionality to my website, but I'm looking for very specific features. So far, I haven't found any plugin that has all of them

-A booking form with a custom time range. So for a given day, a customer can book 1 hour or 10 hours if they need to. And the price that appears to the customer reflects that.

-A user panel where they can view their upcoming appointments and make changes or cancel. And the ability to restrict access to this panel only to registered users.

-The services/time slots support being booked by more than one user at the same time.

-Email notifications. And optionally SMS/WhatsApp integration.

I have not found any plugin that does it all, paid or free. Mostly it's just one or two of the three, but never all of them. Did I miss one or am I out of luck and I should try hiring someone to create such a plugin/service for me? Thanks in advance for the help!

Changes I’m making are going to all my pages.

I want to add a pattern to just one page, not all.

What am I doing wrong?

I wanna create a search feature for the businesses I have in a database which my visitors can filter. I'm picturing something like Yelp or Upwork. What plugin can I add that has this functionality? I also want the result elements to be clickable so that users can go to the elements page and get more info there. Thank you

I wanted to see if anybody has a recommendation for a plug-in that will allow me to have 1000+ photos and make them filterable.

I would like to have filters as well as sub filters for my photographs. This will be used for a professional portfolio and not an e-commerce site.

So if somebody selects a cake, they then can sub filter by chocolate or vanilla, etc. Then an additional sub filter for candles. Then finally a filter with sprinkles and a sub filter with the color of sprinkles.

What would be the best plug-in to achieve this result?

Hey fellow WordPress performance geeks:

I've been doing some maintenance on my (free) SQLite Object Cache plugin.

I ran some benchmark horse races with Redis Cache. SQLite clocked in, on my benchmarks, as 14 times faster to fetch cached items than Redis. Can that possibly be right? Or did I goof up the benchmark and test some unrealistic happy path or something? Any wisdom? Thanks.

Here's the writeup of my benchmark.

Hi, just got a new client for website updating. Got directadmin credentials, but not those WP credentials. Tried to change the WP password and username from DirectAdmin and PHPmyAdmin. Neither one of those work in wp-admin login page. Tried to change it from FTP, but the Divi theme is not showing up anywhere, so can’t access the Functions.php. Any advice? I know for sure it changes on DB but not in Wordpress. Do I need to sync DB with WP?

Many years ago I wrote a plugin that detects a 404 error and searches the WP db for a close match to the missing page data. It rebuilds the URL and does a redirect. It only kicks in on a 404 and only redirects to a valid URL on the same domain. If it can't find a match or a sounds-like match on the db it just exits and lets WP return the 404. It is good for sites that have been moved or reorganized and are getting hits from old bookmarks to a page that has been moved or changed.

I am told the plugin has a cross-site-scripting vulnerability. Any suggestions on how to address this would be appreciated. The plugin still gets some downloads after about 20 years and it still had a good number of users. I am tempted to just give up on it. I've never made any money off it. I wrote it because I needed it at the time, but I no longer maintain any WP sites.

Sigh. The UI for Elementor, Astra (Pro) and WordPress leaves a LOT to be desired. It's particularly annoying when they show you one thing while you're configuring stuff...but when you go to the actual page it looks different. What the heck is the point of having an inconsistent UI?

Enough venting. Here's my (latest) problem with Elementor and Astra Pro.

I want my site to have a sidebar. The Hello Elementor theme from Elementor -- which is a stripped down, very plain vanilla theme -- does not offer sidebars. Yes, there are workarounds for that, but they're all a pain in the ass.

So I switched to Astra Pro (using a child Astra theme), which does support sidebars.

But now the page content doesn't fill the entire area, even though everything I've configured in both Astra Pro (i.e., through the Appearance configuration system) and Elementor says "yes, indeedy, we'll display full width unboxed!".

Here, for example, is what my home page looks like. The yellow squiggles show where the supposedly full width unboxed content isn't either.

https://preview.redd.it/bb7iznh8mkge1.png?width=2227&format=png&auto=webp&s=87e78d275ba3c6897b99b78283e854544b4d2171

Here's what a single post page looks like. Again, the yellow squiggles show where the supposedly full width unboxed content isn't.

https://preview.redd.it/6pm8tzj9mkge1.png?width=2190&format=png&auto=webp&s=fc0979e8af72d20b1958941a19006e7d5ca8904a

What's particularly annoying about all of this -- besides the stupid configuration UI not actually representing what I'm going to see when I visit the site -- is that the home page, at least, used to display full width unboxed. But I have no idea what, if anything, I changed to mess things up.

These screenshots were taken using Edge in private mode, and I've temporarily turned off WP SuperCache on the site, so I don't think I'm looking at a caching issue.

Suggestions?

Ah yes, the sacred ritual: update a plugin, refresh the page, and boom - your entire site vanishes like a magician’s assistant. White screen of death? Maybe. Some cryptic PHP error? Probably. A missing semicolon in a plugin you never touched? Definitely. Outsiders think we “just install themes.” Meanwhile, we’re debugging like NASA engineers. Stay strong, comrades. 🚀

Hi everyone! I am a developer looking to build something new for the Wordpress community, and I landed on image optimizations. I have seen a bunch of these plugins around, and I am wondering, for the ones that use them, what do you feel is missing from them?

I'd be happy to discuss and brainstorm how we can make a better plugin to handle these kind of thing!

I have a practice where all new clients complete an online registration form. I had my website developer create the form through WPforms. For some reason, there are times when people are getting error messages when completing the forms. It is completely random. I have done numerous test runs using the form and have never gotten the error message. Some folks have reported attempting to complete the form on their phone and different browsers and for some reason, at that moment, it wont submit. Ive had folks report not being able to complete the form when moments later I get an email that another client has completed the form. I am quite confused as I just cant figure this out.

As an aside, I get quite a deal of spam messages coming through on the forms. Almost like Russian bots completing the forms. I am wondering if something is happening to the forms in those moments. Curious if anyone has any insights. Would it be best just to pay a professional to re-do the form? Would love any feedback you can provide.
