Which Image Text Matters for SEO? When optimizing images for SEO, it's not always clear whether you should focus on alt text, figcaption, title attributes, or all of the above. This article breaks down what matters most, especially for Google Image search and featured snippets.
Upload max file size php.ini error: If you encounter the error message The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini while uploading files to your website, it means that the file size exceeds the limit set by the upload max file size directive in PHP configuration.

How to Keep WordPress Classic Editor from Defaulting to Text Mode in PHP 8: Are you facing an issue where the WordPress Classic Editor defaults to text mode after updating to PHP 8? You're not alone!

YouTube with Timestamp video sharing on Social Media. Looking to share a specific part of a YouTube video on platforms like Facebook, Twitter (X), or LinkedIn? Adding a YouTube timestamp (sometimes called a video jump link or deep link) to your video URL lets you direct viewers to the exact moment that matters, whether it's a highlight, tutorial step, or key takeaway. In this updated guide, we'll show you how to share YouTube videos with timestamps across all major social media platforms, improve click-through rates, and keep your audience engaged from the first second they watch.
By default the Free WordPress Astra Theme does not display the title attribute you add to your images. Img title attributes or image title tags are useful for SEO. It can be a real bummer to find your images are not showing the title attribute, especially when you have taken the time to enter and optimize them.
htaccess redirect downloads; Looking to redirect file downloads to the latest version? When you offer downloadable files such as software installers, utilities, or documents, older versions often remain bookmarked, shared, or indexed by search engines. This can lead to confusion, support issues, and users running outdated or insecure software.
In this simple solution, I show you how to use .htaccess rules to automatically redirect all download requests for older file versions to the most recent release. This ensures visitors always receive the latest file, no matter which versioned link they request. For example, requests for files ranging from filename-0.0.0.1.exe through filename-2.0.0.8.exe will all be redirected to filename-2.0.0.9.exe.
In this tutorial, we will be creating a CSS pressed button effect. This button will have the appearance of being depressed and will include an option to stay stuck when clicked. The entire process is written for beginners and makes for a simple way to begin digging into and learning style modifications.
WordPress Appearance Editor Menu Option is Missing, Recently, I noticed that the option to edit my theme files directly from the WordPress dashboard had disappeared. If your Appearance > Editor link is missing, don't panic! The cause, in my case, was a setting inside iThemes Security that disables the file editor for security reasons. Here's exactly how I fixed it.
Embed MP3 on a Website: It is easy to embed MP3 music, audio files, or songs on a website or webpage, so that your visitors can enjoy audio content while browsing. Embedding audio directly on a webpage enhances user experience by providing background music, podcasts, or announcements without the need for plugins.
WordPress Disable Image Attachment Pages. In the following simple solution, I show you one way to remove or prevent attachment pages from appearing for every image attachment you add to WordPress. Because WordPress stores attached image data in the database as a Post Type, a URL is automatically created for each image.
How to Embed YouTube Videos in WordPress Without Plugins: WordPress makes it easy to embed YouTube videos directly into posts and pages without installing any plugins. Simply paste the YouTube URL, and WordPress automatically converts it into a responsive video embed.
In this tutorial, I'll show you a simple and effective method to globally replace URL or text in all posts in WordPress using a SQL Search and Replace query inside phpMyAdmin. This technique is extremely useful if you need to update a link, brand name, or any repeated phrase across your entire website without having to manually edit each post one by one.
Fixing the "Allowed Memory Size Exhausted" Fatal Error When Upgrading WordPress: When attempting to upgrade WordPress, you might encounter a Fatal error like we did on one of our WordPress installs. This usually happens during automatic upgrades (via the dashboard) on sites with many posts, heavy plugins, or large themes. The error typically appears as:
In the Following Simple Solution I will show you how to Bulk Delete WordPress Comments directly from the WordPress database. If you have hundreds of pending WordPress comments that are mainly spam comments, it can take forever to delete them manually via the WordPress dashboard. By using the following process to delete WordPress Comments, you can achieve this goal in a matter of seconds.
In the following simple solution, I cover how to Disable WordPress autosave function. WordPress's autosave feature is a lifesaver in many cases, it stores your post edits automatically so you don't lose work if your browser crashes or your internet blips out. But for some site owners, especially when working on long posts, custom post types, or slower servers, autosave can become more of a nuisance than a help. It might trigger too frequently, cause editor lag, or even interfere with certain workflows.
In this guide, I show you how to safely disable or adjust autosave without touching core WordPress files, ensuring your changes survive updates and keep your site secure.
How to easily SQL Search and Replace database information from PhpMyAdmin. For example quickly change all occurrences of text throughout the entire content in a WordPress database - all with one update string or command. Using an SQL update query method is extremely helpful when you need to find and replace all occurrences of text in a database but do not wish to export the entire database just to make those changes. Database changes can be made instantly via an SQL query, all from within PhpMyAdmin.
AdSense WordPress Shortcode: In this guide, I will show you how to create a WordPress shortcode that allows you to insert Google AdSense ads directly into posts or pages while writing content in WordPress.
Using a shortcode gives you precise control over ad placement without hardcoding ads into templates. This approach works with modern, responsive AdSense code and is compatible with current versions of WordPress.
Show More than 15 Recent Posts in WordPress 2.8 +. By default the number of recent posts that can be displayed in your WordPress sidebar is (at most 15). Maybe you want to display 30 recent posts or more? It is really a shame that the default limit is 15 posts, so in the following simple solution, I will explain how to modify the WordPress Recent Posts Sidebar Widget entry to Display More Than 15 Recent Posts.
Margin different in Firefox and Chrome or Internet Explorer? If you have spent a good amount time messing with CSS, you may have noticed that the margin spacing set for a Class or ID can often preview different between Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer web browsers.
In the following simple solution, I show you how to remove wlwmanifest and EditURI links from the WordPress head section of your site or blog. You only need these if you plan to use Windows Live Writer to write to your WordPress blog. If you do not plan to use this Live Writer, you can safely remove these links. They are not used for any other purpose.
Update Copyright Date in WordPress: In this quick guide, I will show you how to automatically update your WordPress copyright year using a small PHP code snippet. Once added, your site will always display the current year without you ever needing to update it manually again.
This is especially useful if you want your footer to show a range like "2006–2026" and keep it accurate as time goes on.
If your encountering a warning in WordPress stating Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in /home/yourhome/public_html/yoursite/wp-includes/widgets.php on line 1044, your not alone. This error is fairly common amongst many WordPress users just after upgrading, moving or reinstalling WordPress.
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at... If your receiving an error like this in your web browser just after trying to edit a file, the culprit is most likely that there are spaces, misc characters or newlines either just before an opening <?php tag or right after a closing ?> tag. In WordPress, the problem may appear from a corrupt wp-config.php file. However, the problem can occur in other files as well.
How to Remove the Date from WordPress Permalinks: Many WordPress sites historically used the day and name permalink structure (/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/) for posts. While this was popular for professional blogging in the past, modern SEO best practices recommend using simple post name (/%postname%/) or category and post name based URLs. Removing dates from your URLs helps improve readability, click-through rates, and long-term SEO value.
How to Embed PDF Files in WordPress? Embedding PDF files in WordPress is easy using the built-in tools, without plugins. You can also use the classic HTML embed code if needed.
If you're encountering the error "Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded" when running a script on your website or blog, you're not alone. This default limit is common on many servers. In this simple guide, I'll show you how to increase the execution time limit, helping you to successfully run your script.
IO Error uploading images to WordPress. When attempting to choose a file to upload, you may encounter a message stating An error occurred in the upload. Please try again later. It seems there are a lot of WordPress users, including myself that have encountered this issue. In the following simple solution, I cover why you might be encountering this error, and what I did to address the problem and get my WordPress Images and uploads to stick.
Change the default WordPress admin login username: As I have previously mentioned, new WordPress installations, by default, use admin for the administrator username. This admin account provides access to the WordPress backend and grants access to all aspects of the WordPress installation. Since the default administrator login (admin) is well known, this can become a security vulnerability. A hacker could perform a brute force attack on the account and retrieve your WordPress admin login password, potentially compromising your site.
Easily remove meta name=generator content=WordPress: Starting with WordPress 2.5 and beyond, the meta tag was moved from the template files to the core of WordPress. This means you can no longer simply remove the call from the template. Instead, you need to use specific methods to remove this generator tag. It's important to remove this tag because it exposes the WordPress version your site is running, which could lead to security vulnerabilities being exploited by malicious users.
Do you want to change the excerpt length in WordPress? Whether you want to show more or less content in your post previews, it's easy to customize the the_excerpt() function. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to increase or decrease the WordPress excerpt length by editing your theme's functions.php file.
How to Limit or Disable WordPress Post Revisions: WordPress post revisions are designed to protect your work by saving past versions of every post and page. In theory, this is a great safety net. In practice, especially on long running sites, revisions can quietly grow into thousands of extra database rows, bloating backups, slowing queries, and making your admin experience feel cluttered.
With the modern block editor, WordPress saves frequently through both autosaves and revisions. That means a single editing session can generate dozens of stored versions. On small blogs this is harmless. On content heavy or older sites, it can become real overhead.
How to delete WordPress Post Revisions: The following simple solution covers how I delete or remove old post revisions from the SQL database. Back when WordPress 2.6 was rolled out, it introduced a new feature called post revisions. For sites with a lot of posts, this feature can really clutter up the database, at least with how it works in stock form.
Changing the default WordPress admin login username: By default, WordPress installations use the admin username. The admin account provides access to the WordPress backend and all characteristics of the installation. Since this is well known, it can become a security vulnerability. A hacker can easily perform a brute force attack on the account to retrieve the WordPress admin login password.
Getting Highslide Working with Nextgen Gallery for WordPress is not complicated. Highslide is even supported by NextGen Gallery. However, the support in NextGen Gallery will only get the basic functions of Highslide to work. By default, the Highslide control bar navigation and captions do not work when used in conjunction with NextGen Gallery.
How to Increase the Maximum Width of Uploaded Images in WordPress. By default, WordPress limits the maximum width of uploaded images (especially when inserted using the "Full Size" option in the editor). Historically, this default width was set to around 500px in earlier versions like WordPress 2.5, which made sense for narrow post layouts.
However, many modern themes use wider content areas (e.g. 700–1200px wide), and you may want your full-size images to take full advantage of that space. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to increase the maximum display width of uploaded images in WordPress by setting the global $content_width value.
How to Hide WordPress Categories: In the following simple solution, I show you how to keep a selection of categories from displaying on your WordPress pages and posts. This can be useful if you no longer wish to use or display specific categories on your site, but have already been indexed for the category content from search engines such as Google and Bing. Upon completion of this tutorial, the permalink structure of the hidden categories are still made available to the search engines, however, the categories you have chosen to hide are no longer prominently displayed on your blog to the visitor.
How to Fix WordPress Permalinks in XAMPP: If your WordPress URLs look like http://localhost/?p=2 instead of clean links like http://localhost/my-post, it's usually because mod_rewrite is not enabled or Apache is ignoring your .htaccess file. The following steps will help you enable permalinks and .htaccess support in XAMPP.
In the following simple tutorial, I'll cover the process of removing the Comments Off text from all of your WordPress Category or Archive lists. A WordPress Blogger might want to do this if they have disabled comments globally and no longer need to display information related to Comments. If you need to Globally disable WordPress comments, see the article to Globally Disable WordPress Comments.
Like most WordPress bloggers, you probably like to keep your WordPress up to date. However, when there are major changes done to the WordPress core, some plugins may fail to work as they used to. Such is the case with WordPress 2.3-2.5 series upgrade and Ultimate Tag Warrior. Those that were using Ultimate Tag Warrior, prior to WordPress 2.3 are likely to face some problems when performing a WordPress upgrade. This is mainly due to the fact that WordPress 2.3 and beyond includes it's own tagging structure.
If you've ever worked with older WordPress setups or followed early SEO advice, you've probably seen guides recommending that you rewrite URLs to replace underscores with dashes. That advice used to matter a lot, but the search landscape has shifted. Today, Google handles underscores differently, WordPress handles slugs better, and modern redirect tools have replaced most old .htaccess tricks. This guide breaks down whether you still need underscore to dash redirects, what Google actually recommends today, and the best ways to handle URL cleanup on a modern site.
Convert WordPress Tags from Underscores to Dashes for Better SEO: Are your WordPress tag URLs using underscores, like /tag/keyword_tag? If so, it could be harming your search engine optimization (SEO). Google and most search engines do not treat underscores as word separators. As a result, keyword_tag is interpreted as a single word, keywordtag, not two distinct keywords.
Replacing underscores with dashes improves keyword visibility and creates cleaner, more SEO-friendly URLs. This guide shows you how to update your tags directly in the database using phpMyAdmin, plus how to set up redirects to preserve your traffic and rankings.
Google AdSense Smart Pricing is an automated system that adjusts the value of ad clicks based on how likely those clicks are to lead to real business results for advertisers. While designed to improve advertiser ROI, it can have a direct impact on AdSense publisher earnings and reduce Cost Per Click (CPC) rates. Understanding how Smart Pricing works and how to avoid its negative effects is essential for publishers who want to maintain healthy ad revenue.
This tutorial explains how to modify the WordPress recent posts sidebar widget entry to display more than 15 recent posts. By default the number of posts to show is (at most 15). Maybe you want to display 20 recent posts? Or more? I'll show you how.
How to add a second sidebar widget for use on separate pages or posts: The following tutorial covers the process of building a second widget compatible sidebar that can be used on specific pages or posts. Using a different WordPress sidebar for pages and posts allows the user to display different sidebar content on a given post or page. In addition, the user could add the duplicate sidebar widgets plugin to add the same widget content to both sidebars.
Starting with version 2.3, WordPress now includes the option to add tags to your posts. This included function works similar to the all popular UTW Ultimate Tag Warrior tag plugin with the exception that it's already pre-configured and included with WordPress 2.3. In the following tutorial, I'll cover how to benefit from the new WordPress 2.3 tagging option by adding the tags to your custom template. Note: if your looking for an All-In-One solution, my streamliner template includes the tagging option and is compatible with WordPress 2.3 as well.
With the recent introduction of Kontera in text link advertising, many WordPress bloggers have been switching to or adding the new service. Kontera is a publishers advertising system based solely on contextually relevant in text keywords that are discovered in real time on a web site. These keywords are then automatically turned into links to the most relevant ads found within the Kontera network of advertisers.
The following simple custom WordPress login page solution is for those of you who want to customize and further beautify the Login screen, tailoring it to your sites look and feel. You might want to do this if you have a lot of registered members and don't want them to get bored with the default Login window. If you are logging into multiple sites, making this modification can help differentiate your sites, making it easier to keep track of which one your logging into.
The following tutorial explains how to make the WordPress search button inline after the search box in your sidebar. If your like me, you'd probably rather have the search button next to the search box rather than under the search box. However, by default, the sidebar widget employs a break between the search form and search button. This is relatively easy to fix as I explain below.
The following tutorial illustrates how to add Related Post entries to your WordPress blog. This is done in conjunction with the Ultimate Tag Warrior plugin. If you aren't already using Ultimate tag warrior, I highly recommend adding it to your plugin list. There are so many awesome advanced features this plugin has to offer other than just displaying plain keyword tags. Anyhow, on with how to add Keyword Related Posts to your WordPress entries.
After upgrading, restoring a database or moving a WordPress site, you may encounter strange characters in your WordPress posts text. It appears to be a character set or charset encoding problem where apostrophes, hyphens, quotation marks and dashes appear in posts and pages as strange characters like ’‚?. The symptoms are obvious. WordPress posts and pages suddenly contain garbled, weird, or strange characters.
The following tutorial explains how to quickly manually upgrade WordPress to a newer version. The process is fairly straightforward and simple and shouldn't take more than a couple of minutes. However, I have frequently caught people including myself become lazy, skipping important steps of the process.
Removing the WordPress post per page limit: By default, WordPress posts are limited based on the posts_per_page setting. Making many of your older posts incredibly hard to find for both search engines and readers. Like many readers, I hate (pagination) having to read through pages of posts in a category one page at a time. So I decided to find a way to make every post within any given category show up on a single category page eliminating the need to flip through pages. In the following tutorial, I'll explain how this is accomplished.
Looking to remove the WordPress sidebar Bullets? The following tutorial is for those who use the default WordPress theme or a derivative of it and want to remove the sidebar bullets to make for a cleaner looking blog. The bullets normally don't appear if your using the Internet Explorer browser and although some people prefer the bulleted sidebar look, I tend to remove it on all sites I have helped develop.
When creating or editing the content of a WordPress Cascading Style Sheet (CSS), many people neglect to take the time to check their work using multiple browsers, IE. Opera, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Navigator etc. Unlike Internet Explorer and many of the other popular browsers, Firefox is one of the only browsers that properly use some commonly implemented CSS property values. This can propose a problem when viewing your work with multiple browsers.
At some point in time, nearly every WordPress Blogger will experience a broken WordPress blog due to the recent activation of a non compatible plugin. A broken plugin can wreak all sorts of havoc on a WordPress blog including the inability to access the WordPress administration panel. In most cases, when a blog breaks, the fix is fairly simple.
The following tutorial outlines a few WordPress quick fixes for a blogger to try when encountering the almost inevitable incompatible WordPress plugin problem that is causing site errors or limited blog access.
The Ultimate Tag Warrior is an awesome plugin for WordPress that allows a Blog author to add keyword tags to your WordPress posts and pages. UTW is relatively simple to install and use, but contains many advanced features that the user can customize as well. For example, tag clouds (one of the most popular keyword organizing methods) are often used on some of the highest ranking sites. The following tutorial explains how to add a custom tag cloud to WordPress in the footer section.
A TrackBack is a mechanism used for communication between blogs: if a blogger writes a new entry commenting on, or referring to, an entry found at another blog, and both blogging tools support the TrackBack protocol, then the commenting blogger can notify the other blog with a "TrackBack Ping"; the receiving blog will typically display summaries of, and links to, all the commenting entries below the original entry. This allows for conversations spanning several blogs that readers can easily follow. - Information quoted from the WIKI
New WordPress Post is not showing up or displaying for some people: I get this question quite frequently and in almost every case, the Post is flagged as Private. The reason most bloggers think it has been posted and is viewable to the public is because private posts are viewable to those that are logged in with administration access rights and typically after a blogger writes and publishes a post, they go View site without logging out. So, the post shows up for them as the browse the site.
As a WordPress user, you may have noticed that you can insert a more tag to your posts so that only the text before this tag appears on the archive or category pages. By using the more tag, more post entries can appear on each page while still utilizing an introductory paragraph for each post. Then, when a visitor clicks on the more tag, they are sent to the full post where they can continue to read the article. However, the default WordPress more tag simply says (more...). In the following article, I explain how to change the more tag text to a text that is more meaningful like "click here to read on!"
WordPress includes many helpful features that bloggers often overlook. One such feature is the ability to schedule posts using the Post Timestamp (now known as the Publish date). I use this feature during vacations, holidays, or busy weeks, it allows posts to go live automatically at a future time while I'm away from the computer.
The following article explains how to turn off WordPress trackbacks and pingbacks. In most cases, a WordPress Blog author might decide to disable comments if they are getting an overwhelming amount of spam. However, sometimes the spam can still get through in the form of trackbacks or pingbacks, enabling an abusive user to spam links as comments on the affected blog. Luckily this feature can be easily turned off and or totally eliminated entirely from your WordPress blog in just a few steps.
This article explains how to run a static front or home page while still resuming the chronological blog posts on another page. This basically allows a user to have both a Website and chronological Blog of the same content. For example if you write a page titled blog, it would be accessible separately at www.yoursite.com/blog. This article assumes that you've already set your site to use a static front page using WordPress.
Do you publish WordPress posts on a regular basis which use the same structure? Maybe you have a signature or picture you would like to add to every post? You can eliminate the time spent going back and forth between posts doing copy and paste functions by simply creating a post template. A post template can automatically add text, images or code to every new post you create. Currently, I don't use a WordPress post template on this site. However, I have set it up for others who use specific images and signatures that need to be added to the content of every post.
Adding addtional buttons or tools to WordPress WYSIWYG TinyMCE visual editor: Like most people, you probably enjoy using the built in TinyMCE visual editor that is included with WordPress. However, by default the included WYSIWYG editor lacks some essential tools like font color, font size, font family and more. The good news is that most of these tools are already included in WordPress but are simply not active. The following tutorial shows you how to add additional buttons to include these tools to your WordPress visual editor.

WordPress is perfect to use as a personal blogging platform. But did you know that it can also be used as a complete Web Site replacement?

How to Add a Horizontal Navigation Menu in WordPress: A horizontal navigation menu is one of the most common and essential elements of any website. It usually appears at the top of the site and contains links to your most important pages, such as Home, About, Blog, and Contact. A well-structured navigation menu helps visitors explore your content easily and improves the overall user experience. Fortunately, most modern WordPress themes support horizontal menus out of the box using the built-in menu system.
I've always enjoyed using WordPress blogging software from the day I first installed it. It's simple to work with, is well structured and contains an easy to navigate admin menu. WordPress includes a default template called Kubrick that contains a great simple base design to work with.
The drama of WordPress word spacing issues: When I first installed WordPress blogging software, I was impressed and thought to myself, this is much better than most of the previous open source blogging software I've used.

Most of these bugs and quirks were fixed with simple update versions of WordPress and third party plugins.
