    Neil@creative got a reaction from adricky.jhonson in Help with a bug in Wordpress site   
    Hi
    The company I work for now use a Wordpress site, which I'm getting to grips with. There seems to be an error in the code, which is slowing the site down.
    I've looked in the theme editor but can't seem to find it. Can anyone help?
    The website is: https://www.contractflooringjournal.co.uk/
    When I load the page it's looking for these in the uploads folder, and I don't know how to remove them:

    I've been using Heart Internet for years, however I would like something a little faster. Can anyone recommend a shared web hosting service that is a bit faster?

    I can only really recommend TsoHost I've been using them for a couple of years now and I've not had any issues with them at all.
     
    One thing that I would point out is using Shared Hosting might be your issue because effectively you've got multiple sites running off the same hardware which if another one of those sites is poorly coded or just generally a resource hog then you're going to have issues.
     
    You'd be better looking at either a VPS or a Dedicated Server, this will cost more but you'll get better performance and you'll also have more control over your site and it's hosting.

    Neil@creative got a reaction from teodora in Looking for Beta testers for our Link Analytics system   
    Hi everyone, I've been a member of this forum for years and always got really great feedback from people. Myself and a couple of developers have been working on a realtime link analytics app for a few years now and was wondering if there was anyone who would like to test out our app once we reach the Beta version (which should be soon)? Below is a bit more info about it and you can signup here
     
    POWERFUL ANALYTICS FOCUSING ON VISITOR INTERACTION
     
    Link-Tag is a powerful online marketing tool, allowing commercial websites to analyse something we call 'visitor interaction'.
     
    Yes, we can show you standard visitor information and links clicked on, but it's our visitor interaction which really helps. This can transform your site so visitors turn into sales and focus your marketing budget into targeting and reaching the right kind of visitor.
     
     
     
    Thanks everyone

    Now I can see it.
     
    Preventing the bar from pushing the content down is simple, add this to your fluid.css:
    .addthis_bar_placeholder{ position: absolute; } This will solve it, but the bar will overlap the top section of your website. I'm not sure if that's what you were hoping for, but if not, then the original state (where the bar pushed your content down) would be right, in that the content dynamically shifts depending on whether the tweet bar is visible or not. The only reason the content looks odd when the bar is visible is because you're using a background image, so your gridContainer element isn't in-line with your background strip image. If you wanted the content to dynamically move up and down, but also with tweet bar pushing the content up or down depending on its visible state, then you'd have to eliminate the background strip image or use additional coding (probably jQuery) to alter the background strip placement or size when the tweet bar's state changes.

    well thats just a business page, and say that was yours, your link on your site would be like :
     

    <a href="https://www.facebook.com/bozbozweb/" title="Company Facebook Page">Company Facebook Page</a>
     
    What is you want to do? Just have a link? Or have a like button on your site? The list really does go on.

    I see their CMS is a .NET job. If .NET is a requirement then maybe there isn't a capable FOSS solution currently. FOSS solutions tend to be built on FOSS platforms
    I don't know about Wordpress, but I am guessing not as it wasn't intended as a full-blown CMS. By the time you have made Wordpress do all that it isn't Wordpress any longer. Joomla and Drupal, sure, of course.

    You know the saying ' you have to spend money to make money'.
     
    You are not going to be able to get ranked higher or quicker than if you gained the assistance of a web developer who knows what to do! SEO and web development isn't easy and takes time. You may as well ask 'Can someone tell me the best technique to get a hole in one as I want to win the Open. But I don't want to pay any money to learn how!'

    Neil@creative reacted to Pete Prosper in Need help with layering   
    It's because the slideshow you have on your page has an huge z-index on each of your slides. (each slide has a z-index of 10 million). If you're able to change that, I would, but if you want a quick and easy fix...
     
    Add a z-index to "#header" that's above 10 million. For example,
     

    #header { background-image: url(../images/header.jpg); height: 178px; width: 1006px; position: fixed; z-index: 3000; }
     
    Edit: I'm very tired. Just corrected a small mistake in that text above, but the code is still technically correct. There are other elements in your code that have a z-index of 10 million and I mistook them for a slideshow element. Anyway, your slideshow still has a terribly high z-index. I'm going to bed.
     
    Kind Regards.
