No worries! I’m not positive but it sounds like your old Google analytics was attached to the theme you were using so when you swapped, the information is no longer being tracked properly.
There are a few different plugins (ie: https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/google-analytics-for-wordpress/) you could use to attached your Google analytics account info to the site again that would insert it within your code on page load.

In reply to: creating a menu in CSSI can definitely try! Something to keep in mind is that WordPress applies additional classes, etc. to it’s menu + items so the selectors you would be using for your code example currently would most likely shift once you “transfer” your menu items into the WordPress dashboard.
#nav li { display: inline-block; padding: 10px 20px; background-color: pink; } #nav li a { text-decoration:none; color: purple; }This would be a starting point. Are there specific question I can assist with?

In reply to: creating a menu in CSSIs your site with this menu up somewhere live currently? That could help guide you a bit more specifically.
This would be a great resource to apply to your own code: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_navbar.asp
Where do you input your specific Analytics account information within the theme? Is it possible that that information was attached within your old theme so it isn’t “connected” anymore?

In reply to: [ColorMag] Post photos not showingAre they still appearing in the Media Gallery section of your WordPress dashboard?
If so, try re-saving your permalinks (Go to Settings → Permalinks, scroll to the “Save Changes” button and click it. (You don’t have to make any changes, just click to save.))Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How to not have a page take over an archive?Hm, I would check out the Template hierarchy. It sounds like it could be something as simple as renaming the php-file so that it doesn’t jump to another point in the tree, so to speak.

I have found the plugin “what the file” to be helpful in these instances because when logged in, it’ll tell you which template/file it is actually pulling.

In reply to: Thumbnail display when sharing on FacebookI would suggest looking into the Yoast SEO plugin to see if it as all the featured you want.

You can set keywords and which images you’d like it to pull for the meta-data for posts, pages, etc.

In reply to: Using CSS style sheets with WordPressYou can definitely still use CSS style sheets in WordPress.

I realize if you’re new to WordPress that resource link is A LOT to take in, but wanted to give you a starting point on the Codex.

In reply to: [Regenerate Thumbnails] Low quality thumbnailsDo you have a child theme at all? If you’re not familiar with manipulating the theme php files, I would suggest uploading a larger image size and making it smaller rather than vice versa.
Regenerate Thumbnails will continue formulating the same image sizes without editing those files.

In reply to: Changing color of border, Mailchimp embedded formFiguring out the right class for forms can be such a labyrinth, especially with plugins, etc.
I think the selector would be: #fca_eoi_form_135 .fca_eoi_layout_5.fca_eoi_layout_postbox.
So the code would look like:
#fca_eoi_form_135 .fca_eoi_layout_5.fca_eoi_layout_postbox { background-color: _______; }with the hex code or color you would like where the blank is.

In reply to: Use the full width of the pageIt’s usually possible but we would need more information to be able to suggest resources or guidance. Is the website live somewhere? Are you using a specific theme?
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Regenerate Thumbnails] Low quality thumbnailsHow are you manipulating the image size chosen for that page? Within the dashboard of WordPress on that page or within the theme files?
I think what might be happening is that you’re manipulating the smaller image size rather than pulling the larger image size itself.

In reply to: Deleting "Leave a Reply" from my Bio PageAre you using a particular theme?

In reply to: Deleting "Leave a Reply" from my Bio PageIt could be dependent on your theme, but the first thing I would try would be to shut off comments on that particular “bio” page (which you can do where you would normally edit that content usually).
