In reply to: PHP includes errors after upgrading to WP 6.7.xThank you modflowers. I had already followed Patrick’s advice in a similar way to what you describe. I added the line <WP-Debug-Display false> in wp-config.php and it works just fine, with <WP-Debug> still set to true. The link Patrick provided gives the full code here: https://wpmudev.com/blog/debugging-wordpress-how-to-use-wp_debug/#WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY

In reply to: PHP includes errors after upgrading to WP 6.7.xThank you Patrick and threadi for your help. I did use <WP-Debug-Display false> code to hide the PHP notices and it works just fine -the PHP errors/reports are hidden from site visitors (also disappeared from my WordPress Dashboard). I tried the query-monitor plugin, but I do not understand the reports and I have no idea how to ‘fix’ anything it reports. All of my acti.v.e plug-ins are the latest version. Guess I will just continue in my ignorance and pretend I never saw the PHP errors, as both the public site and my Dashboard are currently error-free. Does that matter?

In reply to: [Contact Form 7] Conditional logic for selected email recipientThank you Takayuki. That works (no need for conditional logic).
Could you please clarify the correct syntax for upload attachments file types – I am using this but it does not work:
[file file-678 filetypes:docx|doc|rtf|txt|xlsx|xls|pdf limit:2mb] in the form, and
[file file-678] in the Mail tab

In reply to: odd characters in slug urlThanks Renee for your quick response. Yes, I did copy/paste post titles and body text from MS Word, as I always have. Difference now is, it was about that time that I upgraded my system to macOS 12 Monterey, and Office 365 to the latest version. I cannot see the special characters in a plain text editor. Re-typing the slug in Quick Edit view does seem to have fixed that URL, but I don’t want to have to do that with every new post if I can avoid it.
There is a staging site https://fawnsw.org.au/staging/writing-competitions/. Although not completely up to date, it does include my recent posts. I have sent the login details to you at wp-staging.
Thank you for your assistance.I came across this fix by accident… I had included some code in the form to add a ‘Reset’ button (Clear form) and that turned out to be the issue (for me anyway). Removed that code – problem fixed!

In reply to: logo disappears on iPhone and in printFigured it all out myself through trial and error, using a copy of header.php and my custom CSS in child-theme folder, as follows:
1. Turned OFF ‘get-header-image’ function in header.php, by copy-pasting into copy of header.php then commenting it out – otherwise, it was wrongly positioned underneath main navigation menu instead of at top (why?).
2. Added header background image under .site-header in CSS.
3. Added logo with ID ‘header-logo’ and class ‘alignleft’ within ‘h1site-title’ code in header.php; then positioned logo by creating a ‘header-logo’ style in CSS.
4.To control position of secondary site description tagline relative to logo, created ‘custom-tagline’ style in CSS; added the site description text with corresponding span class inside ‘h1 site-title’ tags in header.php and deleted ‘h2 site-description’ php so that it did not conflict with my faux tagline.
5. To include logo when printing, added ‘header-logo’ width and height in CSS under @media print.

I looked for a plug-in to do the job but could not find the right one – ie to have custom logo PLUS custom bg header image PLUS site-title in the header area in Twenty-Twelve theme. Someone more knowledgeable than me with php code might have done all this more efficiently, but this was my workaround.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: logo disappears on iPhone and in printSorry, the URL in my previous post is wrong, should be: ibus.dri-print.net.au (i.e. ibUs with a U)
