You can add a ton of extra functionality and create a WordPress website that does just what you want it to do. However, most beginners won\'t understand what this term is all about.\r\n\r\nIn this WordPress Tutorial, you will discover what a site-specific plugin is, how it works and how you can create one for your WordPress website.\r\n<h2>What are Site-Specific Plugins?</h2>\r\nA site-specific WordPress plugin is one that the site owner creates to add snippets of code into the functions of the website. These plugins usually help with sections of your site that are not theme related and will help you add functions and customizations to your WordPress website.\r\n\r\nSometimes, you will find guides that will tell you to add code to your functions.php file. This can be confusing for WordPress beginners. However, when you have a site-specific plugin, you can make the task of adding code snippets much easier.\r\n\r\nMost of the time, the code you will be adding isn\'t quite large enough to justify the creation of a WordPress plugin, but can still help you customize your website. Adding a site-specific plugin will make it easier to work within your functions.php file without losing the functionality of when you change to a new theme.\r\n<h2>Do You Really Need a Site-Specific Plugin?</h2>\r\nAdding a site-specific plugin isn\'t a necessity, but it can be very helpful. This type of plugin will allow you to do many things, such as:\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Add shortcodes</li>\r\n	<li>Add WordPress thumbnail support</li>\r\n	<li>Redirect users to a random post</li>\r\n	<li>Use custom post types</li>\r\n	<li>And much more!</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThese are just a few examples of the different code snippets commonly added through a site-specific WordPress plugin.\r\n\r\nThe main use of the site-specific plugin has to do with saving you time, money and work. When you switch themes, which will happen sooner or later, you won\'t have to add in all your code snippets again. The site-specific plugin will already have these snippets installed and you won\'t lose them while switching themes.\r\n\r\nAnother huge benefit of using the site-specific plugin is that you will now have a break-proof WordPress website. Often, beginners will copy and paste code snippets in the wrong area, which breaks their website. Instead of taking this chance, you can use a site-specific plugin to ensure your code won\'t be entered in the wrong format.\r\n\r\nThe plugin will recognize any errors you make and will deactivate the plugin. This will only break your website for a few sections and is far better than getting the white screen of death from putting the code in the wrong place or pasting in broken code.\r\n<h2>Creating your Site-Specific Plugin for WordPress</h2>\r\nIt may sound hard to create a site-specific plugin, but it\'s actually very easy.\r\n\r\nStart by accessing your plugin directory and creating a blank file for your new plugin. The plugins directory is found in cPanel under the file manager. Go to the \"root\" folder of your WordPress website and find the wp-content folder. Within this folder, you will find a plugins folder. This is where you want to create your new file.\r\n\r\nYou can name the file \"yoursitename-plugin.php\" or something similar. After you\'ve created this blank file, you will need to edit the file and add the following code.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Site-SpecificPluginCode.png\" alt=\"Site-Specific Plugin Code\" width=\"463\" height=\"175\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7154\" />\r\n\r\nYou will still need to go into your WordPress dashboard and activate the plugin. This is the final step and your new site-specific plugin is all set for you to add in new code snippets.\r\n<h2>Using the Site-Specific WordPress Plugin</h2>\r\nThe main use for this plugin will happen whenever you need to add any snippets of code to your functions.php file. Instead of accessing the functions.php file and adding the code, you can just add it to your site-specific plugin. This will protect your WordPress website and make things much easier on you.\r\n\r\nUsing a site-specific plugin for WordPress is quickly becoming a \"best practice\" and many are jumping on the band-wagon. It\'s a great way for a beginner to protect their website and save a ton of time. Whenever you switch themes, you will no longer have to go through the tedious process of adding in all your snippets of code again.\r\n\r\nNow you know what a site-specific plugin is, how it works, a few of the benefits and how to create this plugin. Make sure you follow the instructions and use this process to protect your site from going down due to an error with copying code snippets.','What Every WordPress Users Should Know About Site-Specific WordPress Plugins','','publish','open','closed','','site-specific-wordpress-plugins','','','2014-05-27 11:19:20','2014-05-27 15:19:20','',0,'http://itxdesign.com/?p=7153',0,'post','',0),(7154,4,'2014-05-27 11:19:06','2014-05-27 15:19:06','','Site-Specific Plugin Code','','inherit','open','closed','','site-specificplugincode','','','2014-05-27 11:19:06','2014-05-27 15:19:06','',7153,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Site-SpecificPluginCode.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7155,4,'2014-05-27 11:19:18','2014-05-27 15:19:18','Site-specific WordPress plugins can help you customize your website in many ways.

Typically, this is called a simple notice or a pop-up. You can close it and move onto the site, but for the website owner, it\'s an opportunity to advertise, greet new users or show an announcement to their followers.\r\n\r\nIn this WordPress tutorial, you will discover how you can use these simple notices to increase user engagement. Displaying these notices in WordPress isn\'t difficult and any user can do it.\r\n\r\n<h2>Using the Simple Notices WordPress Plugin</h2>\r\n\r\nAs usual, you will need to download, install and activate the right WordPress plugin for the job. If you want to display these simple notices, you need to use the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-notices/\">Simple Notices plugin</a> for WordPress. \r\n\r\nEven though the plugin page says this specific WordPress plugin hasn\'t been updated in over two years, we tested it and it works just fine with the current version of WordPress (3.9.1).\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/PluginNotice.png\" alt=\"Plugin Notice\" width=\"799\" height=\"76\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7157\" />\r\n\r\nOnce you have downloaded, installed and activated this plugin, you will have a new tab in your WordPress dashboard called \"Notices.\" This will be the section where you create your notices and decide how they display.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Notices.png\" alt=\"Notices\" width=\"162\" height=\"184\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7158\" />\r\nClick the \"Add New\" section of this plugin and you can create a notice. Within the notice you can add a title, a message, use HTML code for an advertisement or anything else you prefer. The edit screen for the plugin looks much like the edit screen to for a post or page. \r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/NewNotice.png\" alt=\"New Notice\" width=\"1169\" height=\"314\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7159\" />\r\n\r\nAlong with adding HTML code, text, images and a title to your notice, you can configure it with the right color. The Notice Configuration box found on the right side of the edit screen will allow you to select the color and set the notice for only logged-in users. \r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/NoticeConfiguration.png\" alt=\"Notice Configuration\" width=\"284\" height=\"198\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7160\" />\r\n\r\nAfter you\'ve created the notice and preview it, you can publish it to your site. It will show up at the top of the page and will have an \"X\" for users to close it, if they prefer.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/MyNewNotice.png\" alt=\"My New Notice\" width=\"922\" height=\"63\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7161\" />\r\n\r\n<h2>Using the Ninja Announcements Plugin for Simple Notices</h2>\r\n\r\nAnother plugin you can use in WordPress to display simple notices on your website is called the <A href=\"http://wordpress.org/plugins/ninja-announcements/\">Ninja Announcements plugin</a>. This plugin allows you to create text and/or media announcements and display them in different places on your website. It comes with a lite and an upgraded version, which will give you more features and functionality.\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/NinjaAnnouncement.png\" alt=\"Ninja Announcement\" width=\"514\" height=\"259\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7162\" />\r\n\r\nOne of the main features of this plugin is the ability to set an announcement or notice to expire. This works great if you\'re running a sale for a few days or even a few hours. You can advertise the sale and let it expire automatically without having to delete or disable the announcement manually.\r\n\r\nDownload, install and activate the lite version of the plugin first, and then you can access it from the new tab created in your WordPress dashboard sidebar called, \"Ninja Announcements.\"\r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/NinjaTab.png\" alt=\"Ninja Tab\" width=\"166\" height=\"227\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7163\" />\r\n\r\nIf you go to the \"Plugin Settings\" section, you will have the option to upgrade the plugin. This will give you the ability to use advanced display options, hooks and filters, announcement groups and HTML markup control. \r\n\r\nHowever, if you just want to use the Lite version, you can create a new announcement just like you would with the Simple Notices plugin. Just go to the \"Add New\" section and use the editor screen to create your announcement. \r\n\r\nBelow the main editor area, you will find a few advanced sections including the \"Announcement Schedule\" section. This section will allow you to set a begin and end date, along with selecting the days of the week to display the notice. \r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/AnnouncementSchedule.png\" alt=\"Announcement Schedule\" width=\"466\" height=\"334\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7164\" />\r\n\r\nYou will also find a section called, \"Announcement Options,\" which will allow you to show the title, allow users to close the announcement and even allow users to re-open the announcement. \r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/AnnoucementOptions.png\" alt=\"Annoucement Options\" width=\"466\" height=\"188\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7165\" />\r\n\r\nThe final section found in the edit screen is called, \"Main Page Display Options.\" This section will allow you to select whether you want the announcement to show on your Homepage, Frontpage or both. \r\n\r\n<img src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/MainPageDisplayOptions.png\" alt=\"Main Page Display Options\" width=\"463\" height=\"118\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7166\" />\r\n\r\nBoth of these WordPress plugins will help you display announcements and notices on your WordPress website. This is a great way to improve user engagement and announce the different things going on with your website.\r\n','A Beginner\'s Guide to Showing Simple Notices in WordPress','','publish','open','closed','','a-beginners-guide-to-showing-simple-notices-in-wordpress','','','2014-05-27 11:49:32','2014-05-27 15:49:32','',0,'http://itxdesign.com/?p=7156',0,'post','',0),(7157,4,'2014-05-27 11:46:19','2014-05-27 15:46:19','','Plugin Notice','','inherit','open','closed','','pluginnotice','','','2014-05-27 11:46:19','2014-05-27 15:46:19','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/PluginNotice.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7158,4,'2014-05-27 11:46:39','2014-05-27 15:46:39','','Notices','','inherit','open','closed','','notices','','','2014-05-27 11:46:39','2014-05-27 15:46:39','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Notices.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7159,4,'2014-05-27 11:46:57','2014-05-27 15:46:57','','New Notice','','inherit','open','closed','','newnotice','','','2014-05-27 11:46:57','2014-05-27 15:46:57','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/NewNotice.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7160,4,'2014-05-27 11:47:18','2014-05-27 15:47:18','','Notice Configuration','','inherit','open','closed','','noticeconfiguration','','','2014-05-27 11:47:18','2014-05-27 15:47:18','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/NoticeConfiguration.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7161,4,'2014-05-27 11:47:43','2014-05-27 15:47:43','','My New Notice','','inherit','open','closed','','mynewnotice','','','2014-05-27 11:47:43','2014-05-27 15:47:43','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/MyNewNotice.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7162,4,'2014-05-27 11:48:02','2014-05-27 15:48:02','','Ninja Announcement','','inherit','open','closed','','ninjaannouncement','','','2014-05-27 11:48:02','2014-05-27 15:48:02','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/NinjaAnnouncement.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7163,4,'2014-05-27 11:48:21','2014-05-27 15:48:21','','Ninja Tab','','inherit','open','closed','','ninjatab','','','2014-05-27 11:48:21','2014-05-27 15:48:21','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/NinjaTab.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7164,4,'2014-05-27 11:48:42','2014-05-27 15:48:42','','Announcement Schedule','','inherit','open','closed','','announcementschedule','','','2014-05-27 11:48:42','2014-05-27 15:48:42','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/AnnouncementSchedule.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7165,4,'2014-05-27 11:49:00','2014-05-27 15:49:00','','Annoucement Options','','inherit','open','closed','','annoucementoptions','','','2014-05-27 11:49:00','2014-05-27 15:49:00','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/AnnoucementOptions.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7166,4,'2014-05-27 11:49:19','2014-05-27 15:49:19','','Main Page Display Options','','inherit','open','closed','','mainpagedisplayoptions','','','2014-05-27 11:49:19','2014-05-27 15:49:19','',7156,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/MainPageDisplayOptions.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7167,4,'2014-05-27 11:49:30','2014-05-27 15:49:30','When you go to a popular blog or website, you may have noticed they tend to show you a message before you read the content.

This isn\'t always attractive and can leave quite a bit of blank space. However, there is a way to automatically make the height of your sidebar match with the content.\r\n<h2>Using the SidebarAutomizer plugin</h2>\r\nIt starts when you decide to install and activate the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/sidebarautomizer/\">SidebarAutomizeer Plugin</a>. This plugin will allow you to match your sidebar height with your content height.\r\nThis plugin will add a new menu under Settings called sidebarAutomizer.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7216\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/SidebarAutomizerMenu.png\" alt=\"SidebarAutomizer Menu\" width=\"164\" height=\"354\" />\r\n\r\nOnce activated, you can use the \"sidebarAutomizer Settings\" menu to make the necessary adjustments.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7217\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/SidebarAutomizerSettings.png\" alt=\"SidebarAutomizer Settings\" width=\"601\" height=\"572\" />\r\n\r\nBy using the div ID or Class, you can change he height of your sidebar automatically. Each theme has a different value for these settings, which is why this plugin won\'t be able to auto detect them. However, you can easily find the values by opening your website in Google Chrome and right clicking anywhere on your website. Select the \"Inspect Elements\" option from the menu.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7219\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/InspectElement.png\" alt=\"Inspect Element\" width=\"206\" height=\"218\" />\r\n\r\nYou will now have three sections to your screen. The bottom left is where you will find the HTML code for our page. When you move the mouse throughout this section, it will show which code is controlling each area of your page. You will need to do this until you find the div with the main content area settings.\r\n\r\nThis div will also use the ID primary and class site-content or main-content. You will also need to follow the same steps for the widget area or sidebar of your website.

This isn\'t always attractive and can leave quite a bit of blank space. However, there is a way to automatically make the height of your sidebar match with the content.\r\n<h2>Using the SidebarAutomizer plugin</h2>\r\nIt starts when you decide to install and activate the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/sidebarautomizer/\">SidebarAutomizeer Plugin</a>. This plugin will allow you to match your sidebar height with your content height.\r\nThis plugin will add a new menu under Settings called sidebarAutomizer.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7216\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/SidebarAutomizerMenu.png\" alt=\"SidebarAutomizer Menu\" width=\"164\" height=\"354\" />\r\n\r\nOnce activated, you can use the \"sidebarAutomizer Settings\" menu to make the necessary adjustments.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7217\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/SidebarAutomizerSettings.png\" alt=\"SidebarAutomizer Settings\" width=\"601\" height=\"572\" />\r\n\r\nBy using the div ID or Class, you can change he height of your sidebar automatically. Each theme has a different value for these settings, which is why this plugin won\'t be able to auto detect them. However, you can easily find the values by opening your website in Google Chrome and right clicking anywhere on your website. Select the \"Inspect Elements\" option from the menu.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7219\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/InspectElement.png\" alt=\"Inspect Element\" width=\"206\" height=\"218\" />\r\n\r\nYou will now have three sections to your screen. The bottom left is where you will find the HTML code for our page. When you move the mouse throughout this section, it will show which code is controlling each area of your page. You will need to do this until you find the div with the main content area settings.\r\n\r\nThis div will also use the ID primary and class site-content or main-content. You will also need to follow the same steps for the widget area or sidebar of your website. Once you know which IDs is being used, you can use the SidebarAutomizer plugin to automatically make adjustments.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7218\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/HTMLSourceCode.png\" alt=\"HTML Source Code\" width=\"980\" height=\"303\" />\r\n\r\nNow you should be able to automatically adjust the content area and the sidebar of your WordPress website to match in height.

This can make it hard to see the changes you\'ve made and make sure they are done correctly. Here\'s what you should do if this happens to your WordPress website.\r\n<h2>Most Common Symptoms</h2>\r\nThe one thing you will notice before any other, when your site won\'t update immediately, is new posts not showing up on the homepage. You can still see the post in the single post view, but for some reason it won\'t show up on your actually homepage.\r\n\r\nYou may also notice that changes you make to a widget don\'t update very quickly. This is another issue you will notice on your homepage first.\r\n<h2>What Causes this Issue?</h2>\r\nOften, when WordPress users experience one or both of these symptoms it\'s due to the browser cache. This is especially true with Google Chrome, which will show you a cached copy of your website instead of the updated version.\r\n\r\nIf you want to remedy this issue, just click CTRL + F5 or for MAC users Cmd + R. This will reload the page and allow the new version to show up.\r\n\r\nAnother common issue you may be experiences is a bad configuration of the cache plugin you\'re using for WordPress. Start by emptying all caches with your plugin and see if this solves the issues. You can do this from the settings page. Here\'s what it looks like for the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/\">W3 Total Cache WordPress plugin</a>.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7266\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/W3TotalCacheSettings.png\" alt=\"W3 Total Cache Settings\" width=\"806\" height=\"199\" />\r\n\r\nMost of the time, you will get a button similar to this one to click and empty the cache. Sometimes it will say \"empty all caches.\"\r\n\r\nAfter you\'ve emptied the cache, you should look at the settings under \"Page Cache.\"\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7267\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/PageCache.png\" alt=\"Page Cache\" width=\"170\" height=\"152\" />\r\n\r\nIf you find that the option called, \"Don\'t cache front page\" isn\'t selected, you may have found your issue. Make sure this is selected and update your website.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7268\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DontCacheFrontPage.png\" alt=\"Don\'t Cache Fron tPage\" width=\"360\" height=\"269\" />\r\n\r\nIf none of these options fix your issue, you may want to deactivate the cache plugin from the plugin menu. Then, you will want to see if this fixes the issue. If it does, you may want to switch to a different caching plugin, such as <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/\">WP Super Cache</a>.','What Should You Do if Your WordPress Website Won\'t Update Immediately?','','inherit','open','closed','','7265-revision-v1','','','2014-10-21 13:51:35','2014-10-21 17:51:35','',7265,'http://itxdesign.com/7265-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(7222,4,'2014-10-13 13:18:51','2014-10-13 17:18:51','Do you find it annoying when you scroll down too far in the WordPress posts screen that you cannot publish without scrolling back up?

Most website owners try to handle the maintenance during the slower hours of the day/week, but this isn\'t always possible. When you put your WordPress website in maintenance mode, you want to be able to do it the proper way.\r\n<h2>Using the WP Maintenance Mode Plugin</h2>\r\nThe WP Maintenance mode Plugin will allow you to do everything you need to do, while you handle the maintenance of your website.

When you make a small change to your website, you may not need to shut it down to make the change. However, if you plan to change themes or make a massive change to the way your site looks or functions, using maintenance mode is a great idea.\r\n\r\nPutting your WordPress website into maintenance mode will allow you to make any necessary changes without visitors seeing what you\'re doing. You don\'t want them to land on a fragmented website because you\'re in the middle of making a change. It\'s much better for a visitor to know what\'s going on because they landed on a maintenance mode page instead of a fragmented website.\r\n\r\nIf you\'re making large changes or you have an issue you need to fix that may take some time, putting your website into maintenance mode is a good idea. By using the WP Maintenance Mode plugin, you can easily create and use a custom page, while making website changes. This is a great way to continue to engage visitors, while fixing the issue or updating your website.','How to Use Maintenance Mode in WordPress','','publish','open','closed','','how-to-use-maintenance-mode-in-wordpress','','','2014-10-09 13:52:07','2014-10-09 17:52:07','',0,'http://itxdesign.com/?p=7225',0,'post','',0),(7226,4,'2014-10-09 13:46:46','2014-10-09 17:46:46','','WP Maintenance Mode Plugin','','inherit','open','closed','','wpmaintenancemodeplugin','','','2014-10-09 13:46:53','2014-10-09 17:46:53','',7225,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/WPMaintenanceModePlugin.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7227,4,'2014-10-09 13:47:09','2014-10-09 17:47:09','','WP Maint Settings','','inherit','open','closed','','wpmaintsettings','','','2014-10-09 13:47:16','2014-10-09 17:47:16','',7225,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/WPMaintSettings.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7228,4,'2014-10-09 13:47:31','2014-10-09 17:47:31','','Activate Deactivate','','inherit','open','closed','','activatedeactivate','','','2014-10-09 13:47:35','2014-10-09 17:47:35','',7225,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/ActivateDeactivate.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7229,4,'2014-10-09 13:48:41','2014-10-09 17:48:41','','Design Tab','','inherit','open','closed','','designtab','','','2014-10-09 13:48:45','2014-10-09 17:48:45','',7225,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DesignTab.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7230,4,'2014-10-09 13:49:04','2014-10-09 17:49:04','','Countdown','','inherit','open','closed','','countdown','','','2014-10-09 13:49:08','2014-10-09 17:49:08','',7225,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Countdown.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7231,4,'2014-10-09 13:50:03','2014-10-09 17:50:03','','Maintenance Mode Tabs','','inherit','open','closed','','maintenancemodetabs','','','2014-10-09 13:50:09','2014-10-09 17:50:09','',7225,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/MaintenanceModeTabs.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7232,4,'2014-10-09 13:50:48','2014-10-09 17:50:48','We have all found a website online that said \"Our Site is currently in Maintenance Mode.\" This can be annoying, but there is a good reason for putting a website into Maintenance Mode.\r\n\r\nUsually, this is done when things need to be changed and the site owner doesn\'t want visitors to have a bad experience during the changes.

There is no significant advantage to using Markdown language in WordPress or choosing to learn HTML code instead.\r\n\r\nNow you should know how to add Markdown to WordPress and you should be able to make a decision on whether or not you prefer this over HTML or the visual editor.','Should You Use Markdown in WordPress and How is it done?','','inherit','open','closed','','7235-revision-v1','','','2014-10-09 14:18:21','2014-10-09 18:18:21','',7235,'http://itxdesign.com/7235-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(7241,4,'2014-10-16 11:03:27','2014-10-16 15:03:27','Split testing can be a very powerful way to find the most clickable title for a WordPress post.

This can make it hard to see the changes you\'ve made and make sure they are done correctly. Here\'s what you should do if this happens to your WordPress website.\r\n<h2>Most Common Symptoms</h2>\r\nThe one thing you will notice before any other, when your site won\'t update immediately, is new posts not showing up on the homepage. You can still see the post in the single post view, but for some reason it won\'t show up on your actually homepage.\r\n\r\nYou may also notice that changes you make to a widget don\'t update very quickly. This is another issue you will notice on your homepage first.\r\n<h2>What Causes this Issue?</h2>\r\nOften, when WordPress users experience one or both of these symptoms it\'s due to the browser cache. This is especially true with Google Chrome, which will show you a cached copy of your website instead of the updated version.\r\n\r\nIf you want to remedy this issue, just click CTRL + F5 or for MAC users Cmd + R. This will reload the page and allow the new version to show up.\r\n\r\nAnother common issue you may be experiences is a bad configuration of the cache plugin you\'re using for WordPress. Start by emptying all caches with your plugin and see if this solves the issues. You can do this from the settings page. Here\'s what it looks like for the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/\">W3 Total Cache WordPress plugin</a>.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7266\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/W3TotalCacheSettings.png\" alt=\"W3 Total Cache Settings\" width=\"806\" height=\"199\" />\r\n\r\nMost of the time, you will get a button similar to this one to click and empty the cache. Sometimes it will say \"empty all caches.\"\r\n\r\nAfter you\'ve emptied the cache, you should look at the settings under \"Page Cache.\"\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7267\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/PageCache.png\" alt=\"Page Cache\" width=\"170\" height=\"152\" />\r\n\r\nIf you find that the option called, \"Don\'t cache front page\" isn\'t selected, you may have found your issue. Make sure this is selected and update your website.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7268\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DontCacheFrontPage.png\" alt=\"Don\'t Cache Fron tPage\" width=\"360\" height=\"269\" />\r\n\r\nIf none of these options fix your issue, you may want to deactivate the cache plugin from the plugin menu. Then, you will want to see if this fixes the issue. If it does, you may want to switch to a different caching plugin, such as <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/\">WP Super Cache</a>.','What Should You Do if Your WordPress Website Won\'t Update Immediately?','','publish','open','closed','','what-should-you-do-if-your-wordpress-website-wont-update-immediately','','','2014-10-21 13:51:50','2014-10-21 17:51:50','',0,'http://itxdesign.com/?p=7265',0,'post','',0),(7266,4,'2014-10-21 13:48:51','2014-10-21 17:48:51','','W3 Total Cache Settings','','inherit','open','closed','','w3totalcachesettings','','','2014-10-21 13:48:59','2014-10-21 17:48:59','',7265,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/W3TotalCacheSettings.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7267,4,'2014-10-21 13:49:15','2014-10-21 17:49:15','','Page Cache','','inherit','open','closed','','pagecache','','','2014-10-21 13:49:20','2014-10-21 17:49:20','',7265,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/PageCache.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7268,4,'2014-10-21 13:50:50','2014-10-21 17:50:50','','Don\'t Cache Fron tPage','','inherit','open','closed','','dontcachefrontpage','','','2014-10-21 13:51:00','2014-10-21 17:51:00','',7265,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/DontCacheFrontPage.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7250,4,'2014-10-17 14:58:13','2014-10-17 18:58:13','WordPress 4.0 has been out for a little while now. If you have yet to update, it\'s time to do so. Here are some of the changes you will notice when you update to the newer version of WordPress.\r\n<h2>Better International Support</h2>\r\nOne of the additions to WordPress 4.0 is the ability to use more languages. You can now choose from a number of different languages without needing to manually upload the translation files.\r\n<h2>A Better Media Library</h2>\r\nThe media library allows users to upload and use pictures and video on their WordPress website. It\'s now new and improved in WordPress 4.0. You can now see your uploads in a nice grid layout and you can scroll forever. This is much faster and makes it much easier to work within the media library.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7251\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/MediaLibrary.png\" alt=\"Media Library\" width=\"765\" height=\"323\" />\r\n\r\nIf you click on an item in your media library, it will open in a popup window. This allows you to add a title, ALT tag, caption and description. You will also be able to use the arrow keys to browse your images and the esc key to close the popup window.\r\n<h2>Embedded Previews</h2>\r\nThe post editor has been upgraded to show previews of YouTube videos within the visual editor. This allows you to see how it will look when you put it into a post instead of just seeing the space it will take up. This also works for Tweets now.\r\n<h2>Improvements to the Post Editor</h2>\r\nOne of the first things you will realize is that the post editor doesn\'t scroll like it used to. There is no longer a scroll bar in the post editor, but multiple scroll bars on the page. This can make it a bit harder with longer articles, but the post editor will automatically adjust for you as you write.\r\n\r\nAnother improvement is the sticky menu bar. This allows the menu bar and the add media button to stay visible when you scroll to edit other parts of the post.\r\n<h2>New Plugin Menu</h2>\r\nThe plugin menu has been changed quite a bit. You will notice it looks much different. This was one of the most anticipated changes for WordPress 4.0.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7252\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Plugin.png\" alt=\"Plugins\" width=\"802\" height=\"434\" />\r\n\r\nWithin the \"Add New\" menu, you will find that the search function is quite different. This new search will allow you to switch between the popular, featured, and favorites much faster. IT also displays a picture of the plugin and more details with a popup window.\r\n<h2>Customized Panels for Themes</h2>\r\nAnother change, which came to the Theme customizers, which was new in the WordPress 3.9 update, is the panels you can use now. You can add and manage widgets from the customizer screen and set all of this up to fit your needs with the theme.\r\n<h2>Developer Updates</h2>\r\nDevelopers are very happy to find out a new API has been added to make customizing WordPress websites easier. It\'s much like the widgets grouped in their own panel and allows developers to work on the options they need in their own panels. This supports panels, contexts and a new set of controls for plugins and themes.\r\n\r\nAnother improvement found under the hood is the query ordering, which makes it possible to do many new things. Developers will also find this very useful.\r\n<h2>Overall Thoughts on WordPress 4.0</h2>\r\nWordPress has updated itself a number of times, for many different reasons. WordPress 4.0 comes with many new tools and some changes that may take some getting used to. As with any update, there will be a few minor bugs to work out, but overall, this update has made WordPress an even better CMS.\r\n\r\nIf you have yet to update to WordPress 4.0, it\'s time to do so.

This allows the menu bar and the add media button to stay visible when you scroll to edit other parts of the post.\r\n<h2>New Plugin Menu</h2>\r\nThe plugin menu has been changed quite a bit. You will notice it looks much different. This was one of the most anticipated changes for WordPress 4.0.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7252\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Plugin.png\" alt=\"Plugins\" width=\"802\" height=\"434\" />\r\n\r\nWithin the \"Add New\" menu, you will find that the search function is quite different. This new search will allow you to switch between the popular, featured, and favorites much faster. IT also displays a picture of the plugin and more details with a popup window.\r\n<h2>Customized Panels for Themes</h2>\r\nAnother change, which came to the Theme customizers, which was new in the WordPress 3.9 update, is the panels you can use now. You can add and manage widgets from the customizer screen and set all of this up to fit your needs with the theme.\r\n<h2>Developer Updates</h2>\r\nDevelopers are very happy to find out a new API has been added to make customizing WordPress websites easier. It\'s much like the widgets grouped in their own panel and allows developers to work on the options they need in their own panels. This supports panels, contexts and a new set of controls for plugins and themes.\r\n\r\nAnother improvement found under the hood is the query ordering, which makes it possible to do many new things. Developers will also find this very useful.\r\n<h2>Overall Thoughts on WordPress 4.0</h2>\r\nWordPress has updated itself a number of times, for many different reasons. WordPress 4.0 comes with many new tools and some changes that may take some getting used to. As with any update, there will be a few minor bugs to work out, but overall, this update has made WordPress an even better CMS.\r\n\r\nIf you have yet to update to WordPress 4.0, it\'s time to do so. Every single new version of WordPress is released for a reason. It\'s very important to update whenever a new version of WordPress comes out. Sometimes the updates include new security, while other times, like this new update, they come with powerful features making it much easier to build and maintain a WordPress website and blog.\r\n\r\nEven if you\'re not sure you want to deal with the new changes, it\'s necessary to update. The new post editor alone, makes it work the time and there are plenty of other features you may find very helpful.','What Came New With WordPress 4.0?','','inherit','open','closed','','7250-autosave-v1','','','2014-10-09 15:01:38','2014-10-09 19:01:38','',7250,'http://itxdesign.com/7250-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(7255,4,'2014-10-20 15:20:59','2014-10-20 19:20:59','Finding the right Calendar Plugin for WordPress can make a difference for your overall WordPress website.

However, if you have a large number of categories, the select option will give you a dropdown box for your categories instead.\r\n\r\nYou can also change the position and the priority of the category menu in the post edit screen.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7288\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/PriorityPosition.png\" alt=\"Priority Position\" width=\"420\" height=\"265\" />\r\n\r\nThis plugin will also allow you to change the title of your categories metabox. You can also disable the indent for any child categories and even restrict users from creating any new categories with this plugin.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7289\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/TitleIndent.png\" alt=\"Title Indent\" width=\"657\" height=\"273\" />\r\n\r\nOnce you have selected all the necessary options, just save your changes and your categories will have changed in the post edit screen.

Narrowing the list down to just a few of the top choices isn\'t easy. However, here are some of the top Category Hacks and Plugins for WordPress.\r\n<h2>Category Icon Adding in WordPress</h2>\r\nWith the right images representing your categories, your WordPress website can stand out much better. With the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/taxonomy-images/\">Taxonomy Images Plugin</a>, you can add icons to your categories. Just download and install the plugin, then go to the <strong>Settings&gt;&gt;Taxonomy Images</strong> section in your WordPress dashboard.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7321\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/TaxonomyImage.png\" alt=\"Taxonomy Image\" width=\"397\" height=\"195\" />\r\n\r\nOnce you change the setting, you can go to the <strong>Post&gt;&gt;Categories</strong>section and click on the thumbnail to add an image to each category.\r\n<h2>Using Category Templates</h2>\r\nWith a powerful theme engine, WordPress makes it possible to do many things. One of the things you can do is create a category template to display all of your category pages. You can even create custom category templates and name them for each category. This can be done by using the basic category.php template of your theme as your starting point. You can duplicate and modify this file, as necessary.\r\n<h2>Creating RSS Feeds for Categories</h2>\r\nMaybe one of the most popular and most powerful category hacks for WordPress is using RSS feeds for each category. All you have to do is add \"/feed/\" at the end of the category URL. It will look something like this:\r\n\r\nhttp://www.yourwordpresssite.com/category/categoryname/feed/\r\n\r\nJust add this link to the category template and you\'re all set. This will allow you to let users subscribe to categories, instead of the entire website/blog.\r\n<h2>Using Categories for Your Pages in WordPress</h2>\r\nSince the default setting for WordPress only allows you to use categories for posts, you may want to make changes to this. With the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-tags-and-categories-for-pages/\">Posts Tags and Categories for Pages WordPress plugin</a>, you can start using your categories for pages. This is an out-of-the-box solution you can easily configure to work with your WordPress website.\r\n\r\nAfter installing and activating the plugin, you can just go to the \"Pages\" section and you will find the \"Categories\" and the \"Tags\" option under this menu.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7322\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/CategoriesAndTags.png\" alt=\"Categories And Tags\" width=\"160\" height=\"157\" />\r\n\r\nThese are just a few of the many Category Hacks and Plugins you can use with your WordPress website.

This powerful program will also let you track time, expenses, create estimates and more.\r\n<h2>Using the WP-Invoice Plugin to Create an Invoice in WordPress</h2>\r\nEven though FreshBooks doesn\'t work directly with WordPress, it\'s a great way to manage your invoices and create them for clients. However, if you want a solution to work directly from WordPress, the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-invoice/\">WP-Invoice plugin</a> is the best choice.\r\nThis plugin will allow you to create and send invoices directly from WordPress. Simply download the plugin and install it in your WordPress dashboard. Once installed, you will be able to access it from the <strong>Invoice</strong> menu added to the sidebar in your dashboard.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7378\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/InvoiceMenu.png\" alt=\"Invoice Menu\" width=\"165\" height=\"172\" />\r\n\r\nFrom here, you can create a new invoice by clicking the \"add new\" option.

It will allow you to enter all the details including whether the invoice is a quote or recurring bill. After you enter all the invoice information, just click the publish button and your client will receive the invoice by email.\r\n<h2>How to View Reports and Invoices</h2>\r\nWith this plugin, you can also view your invoices and your reports. Viewing the reports is done by clicking on the <strong>Invoices&gt;&gt;Reports</strong> link, while viewing all your invoices is done by clicking on <strong>Invoices&gt;&gt;View All</strong>\r\nBoth of these options will come in handy and make it very easy to see how much you have earned and which invoices still need to be paid.\r\n\r\nBoth the WP-Invoice Plugin and FreshBooks are great choices for sending invoices for WordPress professionals. The biggest difference is that the plugin will be right in your WordPress dashboard, while FreshBooks is an outside program.

You can add Emoji support for plenty of other choices with the right plugin. Here\'s how you can add Emoji Support to your WordPress site.\r\n<h2>Using the WP Emoji One Plugin for WordPress</h2>\r\nStart by downloading, installing and activating the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-emoji-one/\">WP Emoji One WordPress Plugin</a>. After the plugin is installed and activated, you can access the configurations by going to <strong>Settings&gt;&gt;WP Emoji One</strong>.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7350\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/WPEmojiOneConfiguration.png\" alt=\"WP Emoji One Configuration\" width=\"166\" height=\"338\" />\r\n\r\nFrom here, you will be able to add the buttons to the WordPress visual editor.

After you select your row, click the \"Save Changes\" button.\r\n\r\nOnce you have selected the row, you will be able to find the Emojis within the post and page edit screens in the visual editor.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7352\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/VisualEditorEmojis.png\" alt=\"Visual Editor Emojis\" width=\"546\" height=\"158\" />\r\n\r\nThe little smiley face provides all the options and you can click on it to insert an Emoji into your content. The popup window will allow you to adjust the size of the Emoji, as well.\r\n\r\nCurrently, you can choose from more than 840 emoticons to use within your post.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7353\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Emojis.png\" alt=\"Emojis\" width=\"691\" height=\"692\" />\r\n\r\nThey are separated by category with a category icon found in the popup window.

We use them when texting, in blog posts and during other chat sessions.\r\n\r\nHowever, WordPress only gives you a few Emojis with the basic installation. You can add Emoji support for plenty of other choices with the right plugin. Here\'s how you can add Emoji Support to your WordPress site.\r\n<h2>Using the WP Emoji One Plugin for WordPress</h2>\r\nStart by downloading, installing and activating the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-emoji-one/\">WP Emoji One WordPress Plugin</a>. After the plugin is installed and activated, you can access the configurations by going to <strong>Settings&gt;&gt;WP Emoji One</strong>.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7350\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/WPEmojiOneConfiguration.png\" alt=\"WP Emoji One Configuration\" width=\"166\" height=\"338\" />\r\n\r\nFrom here, you will be able to add the buttons to the WordPress visual editor. Select the row you want to add them to with the dropdown menu.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7351\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/DropdownEmoji.png\" alt=\"Dropdown Emoji\" width=\"602\" height=\"192\" />\r\n\r\nIf you\'re using the TinyMCE toolbar, this dropdown will give you options for placing the Emojis in one of the rows of this toolbar. After you select your row, click the \"Save Changes\" button.\r\n\r\nOnce you have selected the row, you will be able to find the Emojis within the post and page edit screens in the visual editor.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7352\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/VisualEditorEmojis.png\" alt=\"Visual Editor Emojis\" width=\"546\" height=\"158\" />\r\n\r\nThe little smiley face provides all the options and you can click on it to insert an Emoji into your content. The popup window will allow you to adjust the size of the Emoji, as well.\r\n\r\nCurrently, you can choose from more than 840 emoticons to use within your post.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7353\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Emojis.png\" alt=\"Emojis\" width=\"691\" height=\"692\" />\r\n\r\nThey are separated by category with a category icon found in the popup window. This makes it very easy to switch between the four different categories.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7354\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/CategoryIcons.png\" alt=\"Category Icons\" width=\"504\" height=\"141\" />\r\n\r\nThe plugin may add more emoticons in the future and they may provide support for using Emojis in comments, too.

However, if you want a solution to work directly from WordPress, the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-invoice/\">WP-Invoice plugin</a> is the best choice.\r\nThis plugin will allow you to create and send invoices directly from WordPress. Simply download the plugin and install it in your WordPress dashboard. Once installed, you will be able to access it from the <strong>Invoice</strong> menu added to the sidebar in your dashboard.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7378\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/InvoiceMenu.png\" alt=\"Invoice Menu\" width=\"165\" height=\"172\" />\r\n\r\nFrom here, you can create a new invoice by clicking the \"add new\" option.

It will allow you to enter all the details including whether the invoice is a quote or recurring bill. After you enter all the invoice information, just click the publish button and your client will receive the invoice by email.\r\n<h2>How to View Reports and Invoices</h2>\r\nWith this plugin, you can also view your invoices and your reports. Viewing the reports is done by clicking on the <strong>Invoices&gt;&gt;Reports</strong> link, while viewing all your invoices is done by clicking on <strong>Invoices&gt;&gt;View All</strong>\r\nBoth of these options will come in handy and make it very easy to see how much you have earned and which invoices still need to be paid.\r\n\r\nBoth the WP-Invoice Plugin and FreshBooks are great choices for sending invoices for WordPress professionals. The biggest difference is that the plugin will be right in your WordPress dashboard, while FreshBooks is an outside program.

PowerPoint presentations can be hard to share on a websites, but WordPress users can create presentations with an entirely different system.\r\n<h2>Why Should You Use WordPress for Presentations?</h2>\r\nEven though PowerPoint is the most popular choice for creating presentations, it\'s not easy to share these on your website. Often, you have to use a third-party software to make this happen.\r\n\r\nBy creating your presentations in WordPress, you can convert more visitors into buyers and subscribers. You won\'t have to worry about the third-party software to get the presentation onto your website. This provides a huge benefits and all of your slides can even become indexed by the search engines.\r\n<h2>Using the HTML5 SlideShow Presentations Plugin</h2>\r\nThe HTML5 SlideShow Presentations Plugin for WordPress makes it easy to create presentations and display them on your website immediately. Start by downloading and installing the plugin on your WordPress website.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7383\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5SlideSharePresentationsPlugin.png\" alt=\"HTML5 SlideShare Presentations Plugin\" width=\"581\" height=\"238\" />\r\n\r\nAfter installing the plugin, you can access it from the \"HTML5 Presentations\" menu found in the sidebar of your WordPress dashboard.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7384\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5PresentationsMenu.png\" alt=\"HTML5 Presentations Menu\" width=\"166\" height=\"134\" />\r\n\r\nClick the \"add new\" option and you will be able to create your first presentation from a screen that looks much like the Post Editor screen in WordPress.\r\n\r\nBelow the content area, you will find a few options for the way your slides will work and the size of your presentation.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7385\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTMLSlideFormatting.png\" alt=\"HTML5 Slide Formatting\" width=\"685\" height=\"480\" />\r\n\r\nStart by choosing the slide type. The first slide you create will become the title slide, so make sure to choose this option.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7386\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/TitleSlide.png\" alt=\"Title Slide\" width=\"312\" height=\"154\" />\r\n\r\nAfter you have chosen this option, you can choose the slide style, which will allow you to use smaller text, animations and other options. You will also have the ability to adjust the presentation type to widescreen or faux widescreen.\r\n\r\nNow, you will need to repeat the process to add more slides. However, you can choose a parent slide from the HTML5 Slide Attributes to add a new slide to your presentation.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7387\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/SlideAttributes.png\" alt=\"Slide Attributes\" width=\"284\" height=\"254\" />\r\n\r\nDo this for as many slides as you want to create for the presentation. Of course, you can always edit the presentation or just each individual slide, if necessary.\r\n\r\nTo edit your slides, just go to <strong>HTML5 Presentations&gt;&gt;HTML5 Presentations</strong> option within your WordPress dashboard. From here, you can click on the slide or presentation you would like to edit. Each slide with a dash next to it is a child slide and belongs to a parent slide of the presentation.\r\n<h2>Displaying your Presentation on Your Website</h2>\r\nOnce you get the presentation created, you can display it on your website by creating a new page. Within the Page Edit screen, you will have a new HTML5 Presentation menu on the right side.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7388\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5Presentation.png\" alt=\"HTML5 Presentation\" width=\"292\" height=\"167\" />\r\n\r\nJust select the presentation you want to display on the page and save your changes.\r\n<h2>Can you Use Custom Styles?</h2>\r\nAdvanced WordPress users may want to use custom styles for their presentation. This is also possible with this plugin. You will need to create a new stylesheet to replace the plugin\'s style sheet, however. If you don\'t have knowledge of CSS, please don\'t attempt this.\r\n\r\nWhen you do this, you will want to use the file name, html5slide-replace.css. Then, upload this stylesheet into your theme or your child theme directory. If you want to add a few extra style rules, you will want to use the stylesheet name, html5slide-style.css. Then, upload the file into your theme or child theme directory.\r\n<h2>How to Present Your SlideShow</h2>\r\nOf course, you may want to use your presentations for a conference or meeting. This can be done just by launching a full-screen browser, such as Google Chrome. Then, just use the arrow keys to move from one slide to the next. If your slide happens to get stuck, just click the empty area on the screen and you will unfreeze the presentation.\r\n\r\nThis is a much easier way to get your presentation up and on your website without the hassle of PowerPoint and a third-party software. If you want to display professional presentations, use this WordPress plugin instead. It will not only make it easier to create and display presentations on your WordPress site, but it will also provide SEO benefits.','Can you Create Presentations in WordPress?','','publish','open','closed','','can-you-create-presentations-in-wordpress','','','2014-11-13 14:33:51','2014-11-13 19:33:51','',0,'http://itxdesign.com/?p=7382',0,'post','',0),(7383,4,'2014-11-13 14:31:54','2014-11-13 19:31:54','','HTML5 SlideShare Presentations Plugin','','inherit','open','closed','','html5slidesharepresentationsplugin','','','2014-11-13 14:32:02','2014-11-13 19:32:02','',7382,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5SlideSharePresentationsPlugin.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7384,4,'2014-11-13 14:32:14','2014-11-13 19:32:14','','HTML5 Presentations Menu','','inherit','open','closed','','html5presentationsmenu','','','2014-11-13 14:32:21','2014-11-13 19:32:21','',7382,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5PresentationsMenu.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7385,4,'2014-11-13 14:32:36','2014-11-13 19:32:36','','HTML5 Slide Formatting','','inherit','open','closed','','htmlslideformatting','','','2014-11-13 14:32:44','2014-11-13 19:32:44','',7382,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTMLSlideFormatting.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7386,4,'2014-11-13 14:33:01','2014-11-13 19:33:01','','Title Slide','','inherit','open','closed','','titleslide','','','2014-11-13 14:33:07','2014-11-13 19:33:07','',7382,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/TitleSlide.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7387,4,'2014-11-13 14:33:18','2014-11-13 19:33:18','','Slide Attributes','','inherit','open','closed','','slideattributes','','','2014-11-13 14:33:23','2014-11-13 19:33:23','',7382,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/SlideAttributes.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7388,4,'2014-11-13 14:33:38','2014-11-13 19:33:38','','HTML5 Presentation','','inherit','open','closed','','html5presentation','','','2014-11-13 14:33:43','2014-11-13 19:33:43','',7382,'http://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5Presentation.png',0,'attachment','image/png',0),(7389,4,'2014-11-13 14:33:48','2014-11-13 19:33:48','If you\'re sick of using PowerPoint or some other program for your presentations, you don\'t have to anymore.

Start by downloading and installing the plugin on your WordPress website.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7383\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5SlideSharePresentationsPlugin.png\" alt=\"HTML5 SlideShare Presentations Plugin\" width=\"581\" height=\"238\" />\r\n\r\nAfter installing the plugin, you can access it from the \"HTML5 Presentations\" menu found in the sidebar of your WordPress dashboard.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7384\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5PresentationsMenu.png\" alt=\"HTML5 Presentations Menu\" width=\"166\" height=\"134\" />\r\n\r\nClick the \"add new\" option and you will be able to create your first presentation from a screen that looks much like the Post Editor screen in WordPress.\r\n\r\nBelow the content area, you will find a few options for the way your slides will work and the size of your presentation.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7385\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTMLSlideFormatting.png\" alt=\"HTML5 Slide Formatting\" width=\"685\" height=\"480\" />\r\n\r\nStart by choosing the slide type. The first slide you create will become the title slide, so make sure to choose this option.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7386\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/TitleSlide.png\" alt=\"Title Slide\" width=\"312\" height=\"154\" />\r\n\r\nAfter you have chosen this option, you can choose the slide style, which will allow you to use smaller text, animations and other options. You will also have the ability to adjust the presentation type to widescreen or faux widescreen.\r\n\r\nNow, you will need to repeat the process to add more slides. However, you can choose a parent slide from the HTML5 Slide Attributes to add a new slide to your presentation.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7387\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/SlideAttributes.png\" alt=\"Slide Attributes\" width=\"284\" height=\"254\" />\r\n\r\nDo this for as many slides as you want to create for the presentation. Of course, you can always edit the presentation or just each individual slide, if necessary.\r\n\r\nTo edit your slides, just go to <strong>HTML5 Presentations&gt;&gt;HTML5 Presentations</strong> option within your WordPress dashboard. From here, you can click on the slide or presentation you would like to edit. Each slide with a dash next to it is a child slide and belongs to a parent slide of the presentation.\r\n<h2>Displaying your Presentation on Your Website</h2>\r\nOnce you get the presentation created, you can display it on your website by creating a new page. Within the Page Edit screen, you will have a new HTML5 Presentation menu on the right side.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7388\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/HTML5Presentation.png\" alt=\"HTML5 Presentation\" width=\"292\" height=\"167\" />\r\n\r\nJust select the presentation you want to display on the page and save your changes.\r\n<h2>Can you Use Custom Styles?</h2>\r\nAdvanced WordPress users may want to use custom styles for their presentation. This is also possible with this plugin. You will need to create a new stylesheet to replace the plugin\'s style sheet, however. If you don\'t have knowledge of CSS, please don\'t attempt this.\r\n\r\nWhen you do this, you will want to use the file name, html5slide-replace.css. Then, upload this stylesheet into your theme or your child theme directory. If you want to add a few extra style rules, you will want to use the stylesheet name, html5slide-style.css. Then, upload the file into your theme or child theme directory.\r\n<h2>How to Present Your SlideShow</h2>\r\nOf course, you may want to use your presentations for a conference or meeting. This can be done just by launching a full-screen browser, such as Google Chrome. Then, just use the arrow keys to move from one slide to the next. If your slide happens to get stuck, just click the empty area on the screen and you will unfreeze the presentation.\r\n\r\nThis is a much easier way to get your presentation up and on your website without the hassle of PowerPoint and a third-party software. If you want to display professional presentations, use this WordPress plugin instead. It will not only make it easier to create and display presentations on your WordPress site, but it will also provide SEO benefits.','Can you Create Presentations in WordPress?','','inherit','open','closed','','7382-revision-v1','','','2014-11-13 14:33:48','2014-11-13 19:33:48','',7382,'http://itxdesign.com/7382-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(7416,1,'2014-12-02 06:59:28','2014-12-02 11:59:28','<h2>Christian Web Hosting</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nITX Design is a Christian operated/owned business that specializes in web hosting and support. ITX Design\'s website design and Christian hosting team have over 10 years of web hosting experience and we were one of the first web hosting companies online, founded in May of 2001.\r\n\r\nAs a Christian web hosting company, we understand the importance of operating professionally and we treat every relationship with the utmost importance. You\'re not just a web hosting or web design client, it\'s a relationship that reflects on our walk with Christ. We strive daily to provide a service that exemplifies that walk.\r\n<h2>Why Christian Hosting is Important?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nSome hosting companies don\'t put much effort into screening the type of websites they host. Others actually target companies with non-Christian agendas, such as adult based websites and others of this nature. At ITX Design, we don\'t allow these types of websites on our servers and we prefer to work with Christian companies as much as possible.\r\n\r\nOur journey in Christ is more important to us than anything else and as a Christian website hosting company, we take this seriously. We strive to provide the best possible hosting without feeling the need to cater to every part of the market. Websites on our servers may not all be church-related or ministries, but we all play our part in the body of Christ.\r\n\r\nChoosing a Christian web hosting company over a non-Christian providers will give you the same value in the hosting, but additional value with a company you can respect. This section found in Matthew explains it the best:\r\n\r\n<i>\"Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.\" Matthew 7:16-20.</i>\r\n\r\nOur mission is not only to provide great hosting for all the websites on our services, but also to provide opportunities for Christian organizations to use current technology to spread the word of God. Discipleship is a call all Christians receive and we take this seriously. We pray that God will speak to you and help you find the right Christian web hosting for your needs.\r\n<h2>Christian Hosting For Your Ministry</h2>\r\n<div id=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\n<b>Working with a Company with Similar Beliefs</b>\r\n\r\nAs a Christian organization, we love working with companies that share our beliefs in Christ. Many advantages come from this type or business relationship and often, we don\'t understand what these benefits are until we experience them. Our team doesn\'t oversell our hosting and we don\'t try to convince you our servers are anything other than what they are.\r\n\r\nIf you run a Christian organization, we would be happy to host your website at a discounted rate (35% discount). This offer is directed towards Churches, Missionaries and Ministries. However, we are glad to extend this offer to any website that is Christian oriented or places a link on their homepage to a Christian oriented page within their website.\r\n\r\nTake advantage of this offer use the promotion code: Christ when you place your order. Once your order has been approved, we will review your site and the discount will be automatically applied each billing period. This offer only applies to our standard web hosting plans.\r\n<h2>What is Christian Web Hosting?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nFinding the right hosting for your website is hard. It becomes a bit more difficult when you start searching for Christian web hosting instead of just any hosting company out there. Christian hosting is a bit different from basic hosting and it\'s important to understand what Christian Web hosting is and the difference between this type of hosting and regular hosting.\r\n\r\nChristian web hosting comes from hosting companies with Christian beliefs. For example, at ITX Design, we provide a Christian owned and operated business with over 10 years of experience in providing hosting for Christian websites. We don\'t treat you as just another account on our server. Every client is a relationship and our hope is that this relationship will reflect our walk with Christ together.\r\n<h2>The Biggest Difference Between Basic and Christian Hosting Packages?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nWith some hosting companies, you could end up on the same server as a website you don\'t want to be associated with. Some companies don\'t screen the companies and websites they allow on their servers. This means, you could be on the same IP address and server as an adult website or one with an anti-Christian agenda.\r\n\r\nAt ITX Design, we specialize in Christian web hosting and don\'t allow these types of websites on our servers. We prefer to host Christian run companies and do our best to screen the companies using our hosting services. Since our journey with Christ is the most important thing, we don\'t put making money from a non-Christian business above our walk with Christ.\r\n<h2>Do You Lose Anything with Christian Hosting Packages? ?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nYou may think you\'re going to miss out on features, resources or support because you choose a Christian hosting company over just a basic hosting company. This is as far from the truth as it gets. ITX Design is not only a Christian hosting company, but also one of the best hosting companies, overall. We provide packages just as good, if not better than basic hosting companies do and our prices remain competitive.\r\n\r\nYou don\'t have to pay more or miss out on anything to use hosting from a Christian company. You get the same value, but along with the value, you gain the respect of fellow Christians working with you, supporting you and helping you not only with your websites, but also with your walk with Christ.\r\n<h2>Other Advantages of Christian Hosting for Your Website?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nHave you ever thought something was too good to be true? In some cases, it really is and this happens in the hosting industry all the time. With so many companies competing for their slice of the pie, it\'s hard to know which ones are telling you the truth about their hosting. Just about every company states they provide a 99.99% uptime guarantee, unlimited resources and a number of other things with their cheap hosting packages.\r\n\r\nThis may all be true, but the hosting could be slow, the support could be terrible and you could run into a number of other issues. Some hosting companies back up their promises because they only tell you the truth about what they can provide. In our experience, most of the companies telling you the truth and backing up their promises are Christian run hosting companies.\r\n\r\nWhen you choose Christian web hosting, you get what you pay for and far more. The respect you receive from the support team is worth more than taking a chance with a super cheap hosting company. The last thing you need is someone answering the support line with a bad attitude or no knowledge of how to fix your issue.\r\n\r\nChoosing Christian hosting from ITX Design will provide you with all the best benefits and one of the most experienced Christian support teams in the industry. We understand you have a website to run and we don\'t want you to expect something we can\'t deliver. Our promises are backed by our actions and our support.\r\n<h2>Hosting for Ministry and Other Christian Organizations?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nAt ITX Design we love working with ministry websites, Christian organizations and churches. We know how important it is for you to use a website to spread the word of Christ. We offer a discounted rate for Christian organizations of 35% to make it even easier for you to spread the word. This offer applies to missionaries, ministries, churches and other Christian organizations. You can take advantage of this discount by entering the discount code \"Christ\" when you place your order.\r\n\r\nIf you cannot afford hosting and you run a Christian ministry, please contact us at support@itxdesign.com.  We would be glad to help and it\'s one of the reasons that so many ministries have used <a title=\"ITX Design Christian Web Hosting Reviewed\" href=\"https://itxdesign.com/christian-web-hosting-reviews/\">ITX Design</a> for their Christian web hosting needs.\r\n<div id=\"ded-final\"></div>','Christian Web Hosting','','inherit','open','closed','','1377-revision-v1','','','2014-12-02 06:59:28','2014-12-02 11:59:28','',1377,'http://itxdesign.com/1377-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(7467,4,'2014-12-22 15:52:35','2014-12-22 20:52:35','A new thing many are doing with their WordPress website is using a YouTube video for the background.

If this is a concern of yours and you are using the very popular CMS, WordPress, you can keep duplicate titles at bay. This will keep your URL slug from having a number at the end, which isn\'t good for SEO, either. Here\'s how you can deal with duplicate post titles in WordPress.\r\n<h2>What Happens with a Duplicate Title in WordPress?</h2>\r\nWhen you create a post in WordPress, it will be assigned a URL slug. This is usually the title of the post.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7397\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/MyNewPost.png\" alt=\"My New Post\" width=\"418\" height=\"85\" />\r\n\r\nHowever, when the title is the same as a post you have already created; it will get a number assigned to the end of it. This is not a good thing for SEO and it\'s still a duplicate title.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7398\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/MyNewPostWith2.png\" alt=\"Duplicate Title Post with 2\" width=\"444\" height=\"106\" />\r\n\r\nBoth the titles of these blog posts are the same, which can confuse the search engines. They may rank one page instead of the other, which can cause issues.\r\n<h2>How to Avoid Duplicate Titles in WordPress Posts</h2>\r\nYou can manually remove the number at the end of any post that gets assigned a number and change the title. This is an easy way to deal with duplicate titles on a single author WordPress website. However, this becomes more difficult the larger your site gets and if you have more than one author.\r\n<h2>Using the Duplicate Title Validation Plugin for WordPress</h2>\r\nThe plugin to help you with this task is the <a title=\"\" href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicate-title-validate/\">Duplicate Title Validation Plugin for WordPress</a>. Download, install and activate this plugin before you go any further.\r\n\r\nOnce you\'ve done this, you can go to <strong>Posts&gt;&gt;Add New</strong> and the plugin will work for you. If you add a title that is the same as one of your current posts, it will tell you.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7399\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/MyNewPostCaught.png\" alt=\"Duplicate Title Detected\" width=\"359\" height=\"126\" />\r\n\r\nNot only will this plugin tell you there is a duplicate title, but it will also keep you from being able to publish the post.

If this is a concern of yours and you are using the very popular CMS, WordPress, you can keep duplicate titles at bay. This will keep your URL slug from having a number at the end, which isn\'t good for SEO, either. Here\'s how you can deal with duplicate post titles in WordPress.\r\n<h2>What Happens with a Duplicate Title in WordPress?</h2>\r\nWhen you create a post in WordPress, it will be assigned a URL slug. This is usually the title of the post.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7397\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/MyNewPost.png\" alt=\"My New Post\" width=\"418\" height=\"85\" />\r\n\r\nHowever, when the title is the same as a post you have already created; it will get a number assigned to the end of it. This is not a good thing for SEO and it\'s still a duplicate title.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7398\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/MyNewPostWith2.png\" alt=\"Duplicate Title Post with 2\" width=\"444\" height=\"106\" />\r\n\r\nBoth the titles of these blog posts are the same, which can confuse the search engines. They may rank one page instead of the other, which can cause issues.\r\n<h2>How to Avoid Duplicate Titles in WordPress Posts</h2>\r\nYou can manually remove the number at the end of any post that gets assigned a number and change the title. This is an easy way to deal with duplicate titles on a single author WordPress website. However, this becomes more difficult the larger your site gets and if you have more than one author.\r\n<h2>Using the Duplicate Title Validation Plugin for WordPress</h2>\r\nThe plugin to help you with this task is the <a title=\"\" href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicate-title-validate/\">Duplicate Title Validation Plugin for WordPress</a>. Download, install and activate this plugin before you go any further.\r\n\r\nOnce you\'ve done this, you can go to <strong>Posts&gt;&gt;Add New</strong> and the plugin will work for you. If you add a title that is the same as one of your current posts, it will tell you.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7399\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/MyNewPostCaught.png\" alt=\"Duplicate Title Detected\" width=\"359\" height=\"126\" />\r\n\r\nNot only will this plugin tell you there is a duplicate title, but it will also keep you from being able to publish the post. The title will have to be changed before it can be published. If you try to publish the post, it will display a message in red and save it as a draft.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7400\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/MyNewPostDraft.png\" alt=\"Change Duplicate Title to Publish\" width=\"644\" height=\"198\" />\r\n\r\nThis plugin will help you to keep duplicate titles from happening and protect your site\'s overall SEO.

There is a free solution, but it\'s not nearly as thorough or powerful as LinkPatrol.\r\n\r\nThe free plugin is called <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/broken-link-checker/\">Broken Link Checker</a>.

By doing so, you will be able to protect your site from a lower ranking. Some of the benefits include:\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Avoid a Bad User Experience - There\'s nothing more annoying than reading a blog post with a recommendation for something you want, but the link doesn\'t work.

If so, the right plugin can make all the difference. There are plenty to choose from, but they are certainly not all equal. Here\'s a look at the top choices for WordPress forum plugins.\r\n<h2>BuddyPress</h2>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7409\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/BuddyPress.png\" alt=\"BuddyPress\" width=\"378\" height=\"121\" />\r\n\r\nA very popular and powerful choice, <a href=\"https://buddypress.org/\">BuddyPress</a> provides many benefits for your forum. It will allow you to create a social network type of design and it\'s an official WordPress plugin. The coding and practices used within the plugin follow the WordPress standards.\r\n\r\nSome of the advantages of this plugin include:\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>User-friendly and easy to integrate into any theme</li>\r\n	<li>Comes with plenty of plugins to help with functionality and customization</li>\r\n	<li>Ability to add a points system for better user engagement</li>\r\n	<li>Helps users create profiles, groups, activity streams and more</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThe only real issue with BuddyPress comes into play when you try to move it to a different platform. This can be very challenging and there\'s not much help found for doing so. However, this is one of the best choices for a forum with a WordPress site. It\'s very feature rich and very user-friendly.\r\n<h2>CM Answers</h2>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7410\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/CMAnswers.png\" alt=\"CM Answers\" width=\"399\" height=\"236\" />\r\n\r\nThose looking to create an answer-style forum can use the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/cm-answers/\">CM Answers plugin</a> to do so. This type of plugin will allow you to create an active community asking and answering questions. It\'s a free plugin and has plenty of features to allow you to get set up fast.\r\n\r\nSome of the advantages of the CM Answers Plugin include:\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Easily integrates into most themes</li>\r\n	<li>Allows users to vote on both answers and questions</li>\r\n	<li>The premium version provides a ton more features with profiles, comments, social medial login and the best answer</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThis plugin does limit you to a Q&amp;A style forum and the best features are found within the premium version. However, you can get up and running quickly.\r\n<h2>bbPress</h2>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7411\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/bbPress.png\" alt=\"bbPress\" width=\"259\" height=\"79\" />\r\n\r\nAnother official WordPress plugin, the <a href=\"https://bbpress.org/\">bbPress</a> plugin provides a very easy to use choice. It\'s known as one of the best choices for creating a powerful forum with plenty of features.\r\n\r\nSome of the advantages of this forum plugin include:\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Created specifically for WordPress and uses the same standards for coding as WordPress</li>\r\n	<li>Will work with any WordPress theme</li>\r\n	<li>Provides over 100 plugins for customization and functionality</li>\r\n	<li>Very fast and very lightweight</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThe only downfall of the plugin is that it\'s not as feature rich as a CMS created for forums, such as vbulletin or phpBB. However, if you\'re using WordPress, this plugin will get you as close to a CMS created for a forum as you can get with a plugin.\r\n<h2>WP Symposium</h2>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7412\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/WPSymposium.png\" alt=\"WP Symposium\" width=\"311\" height=\"238\" />\r\n\r\nAn alternative plugin to the BuddyPress plugin for WordPress is the WP Symposium plugin. This plugin allows you to create many social features including forums and groups.\r\n\r\nSome of the advantages of this plugin include:\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Upgrade to premium for better support and more features</li>\r\n	<li>Provides integration with Facebook</li>\r\n	<li>Allows for events, alerts, galleries and other features</li>\r\n	<li>Comes with multiple templates</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThis plugin does require a bronze membership to get many of the best features, however. It\'s a very good choice as a free plugin, but the upgrade really makes the WP Symposium plugin very feature rich and worth using.\r\n<h2>DW Question &amp; Answers</h2>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7413\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/DWQuestionAnswers.png\" alt=\"DW Question Answers\" width=\"447\" height=\"240\" />\r\n\r\nAnother plugin allowing you to create a question and answer style forum is the <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/dw-question-answer/\">DW Question &amp; Answers</a>. This plugin is very powerful and gives you plenty of benefits.\r\n\r\nSome of the advantages of this plugin include:\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Allows you to use tags and categories for questions, which helps with your overall SEO</li>\r\n	<li>CAPTCHA support provides protection against spam</li>\r\n	<li>The forum can be a support forum for your website</li>\r\n	<li>Users can vote on questions, answers and comments</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nThe only real disadvantage to this plugin is the limitation to the Q&amp;A style of forum. If you plan to use this style, anyway, the DW Question &amp; Answers plugin may be the right choice for your needs.\r\n\r\nAll of these WordPress plugins are very powerful. They will allow you to create a forum on your WordPress website for your users, for support, as a social network or in the Q&amp;A format. Regardless of your choice, they are all top forum plugins for WordPress and provide plenty of great benefits.','Which Forum Plugins Work Best for WordPress?','','publish','open','closed','','which-forum-plugins-work-best-for-wordpress','','','2015-04-20 17:50:08','2015-04-20 21:50:08','',0,'http://itxdesign.com/?p=7408',0,'post','',0),(8072,1,'2015-04-20 17:50:08','2015-04-20 21:50:08','Are you considering turning your WordPress website into a forum or adding a forum to it?

However, you can get up and running quickly.\r\n<h2>bbPress</h2>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7411\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/bbPress.png\" alt=\"bbPress\" width=\"259\" height=\"79\" />\r\n\r\nAnother official WordPress plugin, the <a href=\"https://bbpress.org/\">bbPress</a> plugin provides a very easy to use choice.

ITX Design\'s website design and Christian hosting team have over 10 years of web hosting experience and we were one of the first web hosting companies online, founded in May of 2001.\r\n\r\nAs a Christian web hosting company, we understand the importance of operating professionally and we treat every relationship with the utmost importance. You\'re not just a web hosting or web design client, it\'s a relationship that reflects on our walk with Christ. We strive daily to provide a service that exemplifies that walk.\r\n<h2>Why Christian Hosting is Important?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nSome hosting companies don\'t put much effort into screening the type of websites they host. Others actually target companies with non-Christian agendas, such as adult based websites and others of this nature. At ITX Design, we don\'t allow these types of websites on our servers and we prefer to work with Christian companies as much as possible.\r\n\r\nOur journey in Christ is more important to us than anything else and as a Christian website hosting company, we take this seriously. We strive to provide the best possible hosting without feeling the need to cater to every part of the market. Websites on our servers may not all be church-related or ministries, but we all play our part in the body of Christ.\r\n\r\nChoosing a Christian web hosting company over a non-Christian providers will give you the same value in the hosting, but additional value with a company you can respect. This section found in Matthew explains it the best:\r\n\r\n<i>\"Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.\" Matthew 7:16-20.</i>\r\n\r\nOur mission is not only to provide great hosting for all the websites on our services, but also to provide opportunities for Christian organizations to use current technology to spread the word of God. Discipleship is a call all Christians receive and we take this seriously. We pray that God will speak to you and help you find the right Christian web hosting for your needs.\r\n<h2>Christian Hosting For Your Ministry</h2>\r\n<div id=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\n<b>Working with a Company with Similar Beliefs</b>\r\n\r\nAs a Christian organization, we love working with companies that share our beliefs in Christ. Many advantages come from this type or business relationship and often, we don\'t understand what these benefits are until we experience them. Our team doesn\'t oversell our hosting and we don\'t try to convince you our servers are anything other than what they are.\r\n\r\nIf you run a Christian organization, we would be happy to host your website at a discounted rate (35% discount). This offer is directed towards Churches, Missionaries and Ministries. However, we are glad to extend this offer to any website that is Christian oriented or places a link on their homepage to a Christian oriented page within their website.\r\n\r\nTake advantage of this offer use the promotion code: Christ when you place your order. Once your order has been approved, we will review your site and the discount will be automatically applied each billing period. This offer only applies to our standard web hosting plans.\r\n<h2>What is Christian Web Hosting?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nFinding the right hosting for your website is hard. It becomes a bit more difficult when you start searching for Christian web hosting instead of just any hosting company out there. Christian hosting is a bit different from basic hosting and it\'s important to understand what Christian Web hosting is and the difference between this type of hosting and regular hosting.\r\n\r\nChristian web hosting comes from hosting companies with Christian beliefs. For example, at ITX Design, we provide a Christian owned and operated business with over 10 years of experience in providing hosting for Christian websites. We don\'t treat you as just another account on our server. Every client is a relationship and our hope is that this relationship will reflect our walk with Christ together.\r\n<h2>The Biggest Difference Between Basic and Christian Hosting Packages?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nWith some hosting companies, you could end up on the same server as a website you don\'t want to be associated with. Some companies don\'t screen the companies and websites they allow on their servers. This means, you could be on the same IP address and server as an adult website or one with an anti-Christian agenda.\r\n\r\nAt ITX Design, we specialize in Christian web hosting and don\'t allow these types of websites on our servers. We prefer to host Christian run companies and do our best to screen the companies using our hosting services. Since our journey with Christ is the most important thing, we don\'t put making money from a non-Christian business above our walk with Christ.\r\n<h2>Do You Lose Anything with Christian Hosting Packages? ?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nYou may think you\'re going to miss out on features, resources or support because you choose a Christian hosting company over just a basic hosting company. This is as far from the truth as it gets. ITX Design is not only a Christian hosting company, but also one of the best hosting companies, overall. We provide packages just as good, if not better than basic hosting companies do and our prices remain competitive.\r\n\r\nYou don\'t have to pay more or miss out on anything to use hosting from a Christian company. You get the same value, but along with the value, you gain the respect of fellow Christians working with you, supporting you and helping you not only with your websites, but also with your walk with Christ.\r\n<h2>Other Advantages of Christian Hosting for Your Website?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nHave you ever thought something was too good to be true? In some cases, it really is and this happens in the hosting industry all the time. With so many companies competing for their slice of the pie, it\'s hard to know which ones are telling you the truth about their hosting. Just about every company states they provide a 99.99% uptime guarantee, unlimited resources and a number of other things with their cheap hosting packages.\r\n\r\nThis may all be true, but the hosting could be slow, the support could be terrible and you could run into a number of other issues. Some hosting companies back up their promises because they only tell you the truth about what they can provide. In our experience, most of the companies telling you the truth and backing up their promises are Christian run hosting companies.\r\n\r\nWhen you choose Christian web hosting, you get what you pay for and far more. The respect you receive from the support team is worth more than taking a chance with a super cheap hosting company. The last thing you need is someone answering the support line with a bad attitude or no knowledge of how to fix your issue.\r\n\r\nChoosing Christian hosting from ITX Design will provide you with all the best benefits and one of the most experienced Christian support teams in the industry. We understand you have a website to run and we don\'t want you to expect something we can\'t deliver. Our promises are backed by our actions and our support.\r\n<h2>Hosting for Ministry and Other Christian Organizations?</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nAt ITX Design we love working with ministry websites, Christian organizations and churches. We know how important it is for you to use a website to spread the word of Christ. We offer a discounted rate for Christian organizations of 35% to make it even easier for you to spread the word. This offer applies to missionaries, ministries, churches and other Christian organizations. You can take advantage of this discount by entering the discount code \"Christ\" when you place your order.\r\n\r\nIf you cannot afford hosting and you run a Christian ministry, please contact us at support@itxdesign.com.  We would be glad to help and it\'s one of the reasons that so many ministries have used <a title=\"ITX Design Christian Web Hosting Reviewed\" href=\"https://itxdesign.com/christian-web-hosting-reviews/\">ITX Design</a> for their Christian web hosting needs.\r\n<div id=\"ded-final\"></div>','Christian Web Hosting','','inherit','open','closed','','1377-revision-v1','','','2014-12-02 07:00:17','2014-12-02 12:00:17','',1377,'http://itxdesign.com/1377-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(7418,1,'2014-12-02 07:01:38','2014-12-02 12:01:38','<h2>Christian Web Hosting</h2>\r\n<div class=\"full-underline\"></div>\r\nITX Design is a Christian operated/owned business that specializes in web hosting and support.

One of the first suggestions would be a business plan that outlines the full scope of work that the business has to accomplish. Such a plan helps with the proper allocation of resources, time and energy, and it will reduce wasted time that may have been spent on items outside of your scope.\r\n\r\n<strong>What follows are tips for small businesses that are sure to better your business results and small business success.</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>1. Recognize a Failing Strategy and When to Move On</strong>\r\nApplying effective business strategies is important to any business, but it\'s more important to analyze why a strategy is not working (it may be due to inconsistent application or it may have been applied incorrectly) and to move on if it cannot be corrected.\r\n\r\nIt may be helpful to share your plan and strategies with others in your close circle such as your advisors, lenders, and your high level employees. It is possible that they may provide fresh eyes on the situation that will help to define a solution to the strategy.  However, even with friends you should consider having them sign a non-disclosure agreement.  I\'ve attached on to this page in case you need a free example NDA (non-disclosure agreement).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"Example NDA Doc\" href=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Example-NDA.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Download Example NDA</a>         <a href=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Example-NDA.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-2237 alignnone\" title=\"Example NDA Document\" alt=\"WordIcon\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/WordIcon.jpg\" width=\"75\" height=\"74\" /></a></p>\r\nYou may also want to carry out some competitive market analysis to determine what is available in your market niche in regards to services, promotions, products, and pay attention to external factors such as location that may be negatively affecting your business strategies.\r\n\r\n<strong>2. Think Big Even Though You Have Started Small</strong>\r\nYou may have started with one website but have plans for a network of related sites, so keep that vision of what the business will be  like in 5 years and not allow the business to take control by making decisions based on the day’s events.\r\n\r\n<strong>3. Outsource Repetitive Functions</strong>\r\nA wise business decision is to outsource tasks that can be done by others such as bookkeeping, and customer service. This will give you time to focus on essential jobs needed to grow the business and to make better and more informed decisions.\r\n\r\nYou may seek the advice of business associates for referrals to outsourcers they may have used for their businesses and could recommend. Look for reviews and customer feedback on the services they were offered, and get information on the tasks they perform. In addition you may want to seek out comparative prices charged for the services you are seeking.\r\n\r\n<strong>4. Invest in The Future</strong>\r\n<img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-2236\" alt=\"invest-future-safe\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/invest-future-safe.jpg\" width=\"168\" height=\"168\" />Building and maintaining successful business relationships is very important to any business. Realize the lifetime value of clients and remedy any problem immediately even if it costs you to do so.\r\n\r\nYour long-term investment with that client will benefit your business for a long time. Keep your end vision in mind and do whatever is necessary to safeguard your business relationships.\r\n\r\nOne thing that must be done in a new small business is spending a lot of time getting to know your service or product.  Be very certain of the vision you have for the business and where you want to take that business in the future. Having that deep knowledge of your service or product will give your customers a confidence in your business and will guarantee their patronage of your business for a long time.\r\n\r\n<strong>5. Cultivate a Persistent Positive Attitude</strong>\r\nYour attitude not only affects the way you see others, but also the way others see you and the way you conduct your business. You will feel good about what you are involved in and your customers will be drawn to you if you show a good positive attitude.\r\n\r\nMaintaining a consistently positive attitude is a crucial factor in the continued good reputation of any business since others will be more willing to conduct business with someone they feel cares about them as a customer or as a client.\r\n\r\nDevelop a relationship with other business owners as a means of socializing and exchanging ideas. You will be able to seek help to get answers to questions you may have, and they can provide support that may be needed to maintain a more positive outlook. Getting to know other businesses in the same niche as yours is also a good idea and that can be achieved by joining online business forums for small businesses.\r\n\r\nThese 5 crucial small business tips are simple strategies that produce powerful results if they are consistently followed in your business. The results will change your business for the better now and in the years to come.\r\n\r\n<strong>The Top 3 Ways for Marketing a Small Business Online</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>The Importance of Marketing a Small Business Online</strong>\r\nEver since the internet came about there have been more and more businesses that have added an online presence to their marketing efforts. Even if you are a smaller business you need to be online. Marketing a small business online is not a difficult thing to do if you know what the best strategies are.\r\n\r\nOne of the things you should know is why it is so important for a small business to have a presence online. With all the new technologies more consumers have the internet at their fingertips. They are constantly online and this means if you are not there, it\'s hard for them to find you.  It\'s imperative that you create a website and setup a <a title=\"ITX Design Business Web Hosting\" href=\"https://itxdesign.com\">web hosting</a> account using shared hosting, <a title=\"VPS Hosting\" href=\"https://itxdesign.com/vps-hosting/\">VPS hosting</a>, or a <a title=\"dedicated server hosting\" href=\"https://itxdesign.com/dedicated-servers/\">dedicated server</a> so you can get your website online.\r\n\r\n<strong>Three Great Ways for Marketing a Small Business Online</strong>\r\n<strong>1. Building an Email list<img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-2247\" alt=\"check-email\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/check-email.jpg\" width=\"168\" height=\"138\" /></strong>\r\n\r\nCould you imagine if you were able to contact all of your existing customers with the click of a mouse? This could bring many people into your store or at least to your website. If you start building a list that includes the name and email address of every customer you have, then you will be able to do this with ease.\r\n\r\nThere are many companies that specialize in helping you build your email list. You can do this in your physical business and on your website very easily. If you have a list of 500 customers that have bought from you before, then you can turn this into quite a bit of cash by making them repeat buyers.  A great Third-Party source that provides this server is <a title=\"Constant Contact Email Marketing\" href=\"https://www.constantcontact.com/index.jsp\" target=\"_blank\">Constant Contact</a>.\r\n\r\n<strong><img class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-2246\" alt=\"business-social-media\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/business-social-media.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" />2. Branding your Business Online</strong>\r\n\r\nYou can also use a blog and article marketing to help brand your business. This might sound scary because you automatically are thinking that you will have to do quite a bit of writing, but you never have to do any writing, if you utilize a great content writer.  Content writing is pretty affordable and you can find writers that will create page content for your website.\r\n\r\nYou can simply hire someone to build and manage your blog for you. Of course, you will want to test out their knowledge on the subject area first and you will want to make sure they can follow the instructions that you need them to follow. They can post news about your company, any sales you have going on, and anything else you want to get out to a large amount of people.\r\n\r\n<strong>3. Using Social Media Sites</strong>\r\n\r\nAnother great way for marketing a small business online is to give it a face with a site like Facebook or Twitter. These sites are great for businesses because you can build up a large list of follower that you can reach very quickly and often without spending any money at all.\r\n\r\n<strong>The Fastest Way to Begin Marketing a Small Business Online</strong>\r\nIf you have the money and you don\'t know much about getting your business online, then you can simply hire a reputable company that can <a title=\"website design for businesses\" href=\"https://itxdesign.com/web-design/\">build your web presence</a> for you. There are many designers that can put up a nice and functional website for you and help you promote it properly.\r\n\r\nMake sure you read reviews on everybody that you hire for the different tasks that will be involved in building your brand. Also, you should use a smaller project as a test run with any writers that you hire so that you can get a feel for their style. The easiest and fastest way to begin marketing a small business is to outsource it to a larger company that can handle it all for you.','Do you Need Some Online Small Business Tips?','','inherit','open','closed','','2232-revision-v1','','','2014-12-30 16:42:53','2014-12-30 21:42:53','',2232,'http://itxdesign.com/2232-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(7436,4,'2014-12-15 13:58:03','2014-12-15 18:58:03','Adding CAPTCHA to your WordPress website can help keep out the spam registrations. These can be a big pain if you don\'t have a way to keep them out. Spam bots will create logins so they can post spam comments, which can make your site quality drop. One way to keep this from happening is by adding a CAPTCHA to the login screen.\r\n<h2>Plugins for Adding CAPTCHA to your WordPress Website</h2>\r\nThere are a number of plugins you can use for adding CAPTCHA to the WordPress login screen. Two of the best choices are <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/bwp-recaptcha/\">Better WordPress reCAPTCHA</a> and <a href=\"https://wordpress.org/plugins/captcha/\">CAPTCHA</a>. Both of these plugins will work in similar ways and they both work with Contact Form plugins, as well.\r\nOnce you\'ve downloaded one of these two plugins, you will need to install it on your WordPress website.

Instead, they come from spam bots. These bots are actually software scripts that spend their time looking for comment forms and posting comments. Since these programs are used to submit thousands of comments, they don\'t load images or stylesheets from websites. They just load the text to figure out if there is a form for a comment.\r\n\r\nWhen you install the Cookies for Comments plugin, it will load an image or stylesheet on a page when it has been accessed. When this happens, the user\'s browser will install a cookie. If a user tries to post a comment and the cookie isn\'t present, the plugin will identify them as a spam bot. The comment will also be marked as spam and submitted as spam.\r\n<h2>Can you Completely Block them From Posting a Comment?</h2>\r\nIf you want to use this plugin and completely block the spam bots, you will need to change a little bit of code.

One of the first suggestions would be a business plan that outlines the full scope of work that the business has to accomplish. Such a plan helps with the proper allocation of resources, time and energy, and it will reduce wasted time that may have been spent on items outside of your scope.\r\n\r\n<strong>What follows are tips for small businesses that are sure to better your business results and small business success.</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>1. Recognize a Failing Strategy and When to Move On</strong>\r\nApplying effective business strategies is important to any business, but it\'s more important to analyze why a strategy is not working (it may be due to inconsistent application or it may have been applied incorrectly) and to move on if it cannot be corrected.\r\n\r\nIt may be helpful to share your plan and strategies with others in your close circle such as your advisors, lenders, and your high level employees. It is possible that they may provide fresh eyes on the situation that will help to define a solution to the strategy.  However, even with friends you should consider having them sign a non-disclosure agreement.  I\'ve attached on to this page in case you need a free example NDA (non-disclosure agreement).\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"Example NDA Doc\" href=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Example-NDA.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Download Example NDA</a>         <a href=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Example-NDA.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-2237 alignnone\" title=\"Example NDA Document\" alt=\"WordIcon\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/WordIcon.jpg\" width=\"75\" height=\"74\" /></a></p>\r\nYou may also want to carry out some competitive market analysis to determine what is available in your market niche in regards to services, promotions, products, and pay attention to external factors such as location that may be negatively affecting your business strategies.\r\n\r\n<strong>2. Think Big Even Though You Have Started Small</strong>\r\nYou may have started with one website but have plans for a network of related sites, so keep that vision of what the business will be  like in 5 years and not allow the business to take control by making decisions based on the day’s events.\r\n\r\n<strong>3. Outsource Repetitive Functions</strong>\r\nA wise business decision is to outsource tasks that can be done by others such as bookkeeping, and customer service. This will give you time to focus on essential jobs needed to grow the business and to make better and more informed decisions.\r\n\r\nYou may seek the advice of business associates for referrals to outsourcers they may have used for their businesses and could recommend. Look for reviews and customer feedback on the services they were offered, and get information on the tasks they perform. In addition you may want to seek out comparative prices charged for the services you are seeking.\r\n\r\n<strong>4. Invest in The Future</strong>\r\n<img class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-2236\" alt=\"invest-future-safe\" src=\"https://itxdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/invest-future-safe.jpg\" width=\"168\" height=\"168\" />Building and maintaining successful business relationships is very important to any business. Realize the lifetime value of clients and remedy any problem immediately even if it costs you to do so.\r\n\r\nYour long-term investment with that client will benefit your business for a long time. Keep your end vision in mind and do whatever is necessary to safeguard your business relationships.\r\n\r\nOne thing that must be done in a new small business is spending a lot of time getting to know your service or product.  Be very certain of the vision you have for the business and where you want to take that business in the future. Having that deep knowledge of your service or product will give your customers a confidence in your business and will guarantee their patronage of your business for a long time.\r\n\r\n<strong>5. Cultivate a Persistent Positive Attitude</strong>\r\nYour attitude not only affects the way you see others, but also the way others see you and the way you conduct your business. You will feel good about what you are involved in and your customers will be drawn to you if you show a good positive attitude.\r\n\r\nMaintaining a consistently positive attitude is a crucial factor in the continued good reputation of any business since others will be more willing to conduct business with someone they feel cares about them as a customer or as a client.\r\n\r\nDevelop a relationship with other business owners as a means of socializing and exchanging ideas. You will be able to seek help to get answers to questions you may have, and they can provide support that may be needed to maintain a more positive outlook. Getting to know other businesses in the same niche as yours is also a good idea and that can be achieved by joining online business forums for small businesses.\r\n\r\nThese 5 crucial small business tips are simple strategies that produce powerful results if they are consistently followed in your business. The results will change your business for the better now and in the years to come.\r\n\r\n<strong>The Top 3 Ways for Marketing a Small Business Online</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong>The Importance of Marketing a Small Business Online</strong>\r\nEver since the internet came about there have been more and more businesses that have added an online presence to their marketing efforts.
