Hi, I am looking for a way to have a staff login section from the home page on a Wordpress website. When the member of staff logs in they then can see a separate menu or group of pages that are hidden to the general public. I do not want them to log into Wordpress, just log in to the website so that they can fill in a number of forms. Is this possible via a plugin at all, I have looked at a couple of plugins but they are just giving access to Wordpress, but I want to give access to published pages. Regards, Dave Rudge

Hi, I have a website on Bluehost that has free 2 email address attached to a domain. I am migrating all of my websites over to another host.

Hi, Thank you, I will take a look Dave

Hi, I have had a terrible week with response times on all of my websites. I am with Bluehost and upgraded my hosting to the Pro plan last Friday, this was the worst decision I have made. The upgrade took ages and ever since I have had so many database errors and terrible response times, making it almost impossible to work on any sites. When I contact Blue host the always give me the excuse that there is an error on the server which is being worked and it will be fixed in a few hours. All of my websites keep going down causing my clients loads of problems. Today one of the support operators said it could be due to Malware, could this be the case? Here are a couple of my websites d53media.com and https://recreateliving.co.uk/ At the moment I can not even get on my cpanel I seriously need help. Regards Dave Rudge

Hi, What s everyone's opinion on website hosts? I need a good reliable hosting platform for multiple websites built on Wordpress I am obviously looking speed, uptime etc.. Looking forward to your responses/ Regards, Dave

Hi, I am really struggling with website speed, I know I will be told it is because I am using Page builders, such as elementor, but so are millions of other websites. The website in question is https://d53media.com It has the latest version of Wordpress and Elementor and is using a theme called Phlox. It has the following plugins to help increase things, Smush and Breeze. The speed is terrible. I also run a test on https://batchspeed.com/ and it could only find one page????? Can anyone assist me with some constructive criticism please? Regards Dave

Does anyone know which setting within Autoptimize might be causing this issue You can see it on this website when it loads - https://tommanners.co.uk/ As soon as I deactivate Autoptimize this issue is resolved.

Hi, I need help with my WooCommerce shipping zones. I only require 2 zones, 1 for UK and the other for the rest of the world. I have set up UK shipping and it works fine. I thought the best way for the rest of the world shipping would be to use the"Locations not covered by your other zones" option. The problem is I have no idea how to set this section up, I have trawled Google and Youtube but found no help. I thought I would just need to add a new Flat rate for the international shipping cost and assign it to "Locations not covered by your other zones" But this does not work, I just seem to be going round in circles Can anyone advise me please Regards Dave

Hi, I am building a Wordpress website and using the Phlox theme and Woocommerce. When I set up Wordpress, I set my name and email address as the Admin user, now it is showing my email address as the vendor name in the store. Is there a way that I can change this? I would obviously like it to show the vendor as the customers company name or email address. Thank you in advance for any assistance. Regards Dave
