Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Missing Widgets and Sidebar Functionality in WordPress 6.2Thanks James. That’s helpful.
Unfortunately, I’m finding the new WordPress totally unusable due to being not only un-intuitive but the worst design I’ve ever seen of any user interface. There’s a good design principle I run by: You should only need an instruction manual for the Large Hadron Collider, everything else should be intuitive. If it’s not then the design has failed.
I have spent hours getting absolutely nowhere with everything. The new design will take a whole year of ten hour days to understand.
I feel the design team didn’t test the intuitiveness of the new design, as if they had I wouldn’t be where I am now.
I am thinking of ditching WordPress and writing my own framework by hand, it would be quicker! Seriously! Sorry for being negative but it’s hard not to be angry about bad design.
I feel the team are guilty of creating my high stress levels. Bad design is a disease of the modern world. It is so bad I just want to go and live in the forest, even that would be easier than the bane of modern life.

Contact 7 doesn’t seem to be working for me either 😉
Any ideas?
OK. I’ve posted in my actual account now 🙂
OK, I’ve worked it out via the instructions: https://cleantalk.org/help/i-want-to-block-ip
Definitely not intuitive, but it’s working. Thanks.

In reply to: [Neve] Menus aren’t mobile friendlyUnfortunately, these issues are a roadblock for me. Especially the first usability issue (my first post here).

In reply to: [Neve] Menus aren’t mobile friendlyAlso, if you click on a menu item that contains another menu (sub menu) which is close to the edge of the screen, it will display partially of the edge of the screen.

In reply to: [Neve] Featured images not displayingCan I just add that, if a featured images isn’t intended to be displayed in pages, then don’t show the option to add a featured image on the page editor. It’s confusing otherwise.
Thanks.
Yes, it was probably foolish of me in hindsight. The problem with testing a spam filter, is that by definition the email or message we create is fake because we’ve made it up!

In reply to: [ColorMag] Search button (when enabled) causes layout problemsAbsolute genius Nitu! Thank you so much. This helps me a lot.
Is this considered a display bug in ColorMag, or is this issue because of something specific to my site (e.g. a plugin clash, or something I changed)?
I wonder if it’s a ColorMag display bug, whether you will consider integrating this fix back into ColorMag core? If this happens, then please let me know, because then I can remove the CSS overrides you gave me.
Really appreciate your support.
Thanks Jelena. That fixed the problem.
I appreciate your support.

In reply to: [Two Factor] New phone issueThis was a clash with another plugin that used to do 2FA, then stopped doing it, then started doing it again. The plugin in question had initially made the 2FA functionality premium only.
NOT A PROBLEM with YOUR plugin. Just to be clear. Thanks. Closed.

In reply to: [Two Factor] New phone issueAs I’m now locked out of the website (via the official WordPress login page), I now have to delete the plugin from the web server itself!
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Two Factor] New phone issueI uninstalled the plugin, and reinstalled it. I checked that no code was required logging in, there wasn’t, as expected. I then went to activate 2FA on my admin user (there is only one user). I scanned in the code on Google Authenticator app. However, when I login it says that the code is wrong.
This has wasted a lot of my time. Something seriously wrong. Rest of my site works fine.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Two Factor] New phone issueI’ve just completed deactivated 2FA. However, when I login now, I’m still asked for a code! I guess I need to completely reinstall the plugin (although note, this is not a fix for this bug!).

In reply to: [Contact Form 7] Message box should only be vertically resizableThere’s only one message box on the contact form though, no? I don’t think I was unclear. But we’ll have to agree to disagree. What other message boxes are there in the Contact 7 plugin, just out of interest?
