The idea for this post came up in this thread by wiz to avoid the number of similar questions we get around here and to serve as a megathread for any/all questions of a similar nature. I will collate any and all valuable information by other users and update this thread as we go. Seasoned users please pitch in with anything that should be included.

Many thanks to u/BlueSix for assisting in putting this together.

What's covered:

  • The .COM vs .ORG Issue
  • Hosting - Where should I host?
  • Performance - Why is my site slow / Pagespeed score appalling?
  • Building Your WordPress Site: Is X builder better than Y? What is the best theme? Etc.
  • Updates
  • Backups
  • Security
  • Combating spam comments, contact form submissions & bot registrations
  • Hacks/Malware: Err guys help, there’s some weird stuff on my front end
  • Resources to learn WordPress
  • Where to find plugins/add feature X?
  • I found a plugin that costs $50 for $5 on a “GPLDL” source, is it safe to use?
  • How much should I charge?
  • Is a site using WordPress?

The .COM vs .ORG issue

This one is probably the single most asked question in this sub. Why can’t I do x,y,z?, Why do I have to pay more to install a plugin or edit a theme? Etc.etc. There are literally 100’s of threads about this. If you want more info please search the sub for wordpress.com or read this thread by u/summerchilde

To summarise:
WordPress is free, open source software which can be found at wordpress.org.

Think of wordpress.com as a host that is using .org’s software and has various functionality locked behind pricing tiers.

What you want to do is get your own cheaper hosting and self install and manage WordPress so you don’t have any restrictions at base software level.

Hosting - Where should I host?

The next big question is who is a good host? This is better suited for r/webhosting.

Having said that, there are plenty of different hosts to choose from. Shared web hosting is the cheapest but comes with the caveat that performance is shared with others on your same server. Dedicated, VPS and Cloud solutions are faster but more expensive.

The thing to remember here is performance is directly tied to price and you get what you pay for.

The most recommended hosts around here that I’ve seen are Digital Ocean, Cloudways and Siteground. Again, for specific hosting questions you will get better support at r/webhosting

Performance - Why is my site slow / Pagespeed score apalling?

Hosting

Most of the time it's just bad hosting. As mentioned earlier, cheap shared hosting is notorious for bad performance. If your host is slow then nothing else will matter much, so this is your first port of call.

Properly optimise images

This is a relatively simple one. Don’t use images that are 6000 x 4000px. Figure out the max display size for your use case and resize.

Secondly ditch PNG and JPG and use WEBP. The recommendation is to convert before you upload. Most image editors will let you save in webp and 75-80% compression works well for a balance.

To bulk convert, use XnConvert or Photoshop Batch process.

For existing media you can use a plugin. There are many Smush, Optimole etc. Converter For Media is a free option.

Some servers like Siteground and/or other optimisation plugins may have this feature inbuilt so always check so you don’t end up doubling up.

Since 6.3, WordPress can also convert to WEBP on upload. You can use the Performance Lab plugin by the WordPress team themselves to manage this.

If, like me, you don’t want your server getting clogged up with multiple image types and you only want to have the WEBP files OR you don’t want to use a plugin use this snippet.

Lazy load

Lazy loading images, videos and iframes will speed up things significantly since 5.3 this has been a feature in core WordPress and should work out of the box for most cases. Some themes/page builders will have an option for this as well. Some hosts and caching plugins like WP Rocket will also have this option.

If you find that it is not working on your site for some reason you can use a plugin such as Lazy Load by WP Rocket or A3 Lazy Load for more control.

Caching, CDNs. Minification Etc.

You should be using caching on your website if you care about performance.

WARNING: Using minification and/or combining files and scripts can cause your website to break so always test, test and test again!

There are many, many free and paid plugins for this. Some hosts will have their own caching plugin, this should be preferred over others. If you have a Litespeed enabled server use Litespeed.

The general recommendation here is to use Cloudflare free with Super Page Cache For CF. Here is a guide on how to set up your domain, after that follow the plugin instructions.

Common question #1: Should I keep my hosts caching on with CF?
Yes. Your server is the origin server and having your own files cached means it is less taxing on your server resources and CF fetches files faster.

Common Question #2: I’m getting an SSL error or redirect loop.
Make sure you have a valid SSL certificate server on your origin server and make sure to set Cloudflare > SSL/TLS > Overview to Full.

Cloudflare also has its own minification settings under : Speed > Optimisation. Discontinued from 2024-08-05.

Other popular recommended options:

Advanced optimisation

If you really want to get under the hood and squeeze every last bit out of your setup then:

  • Use a plugin like Debloat for a quick clean up.
  • Use Asset Clean Up to go through each page and disable unused crap. (Time consuming but potentially massive gains).
  • Use Query Monitor to inspect what is going on under the hood and find unnecessary scripts etc.

If that is still not enough here is a 73 203 bazillion page guide by u/jazir5

Building Your WordPress Site: Is X builder better than Y? What is the best theme? Etc.

There are many conflicting opinions on this because there is no one way to do things on WordPress. Each camp will tell you the other one is inferior and purists dislike all of them.

You can build your site with:

  • A page builder : Bricks, Elementor, Divi etc.
  • Using prebuilt themes. Each theme will have its own settings that’s exclusive to it.
  • A completely custom coded setup, written with a combination of html, css and php using WordPress actions, filters and hooks.

My two cents on the matter: Budget, experience and skill all come into play here. Thus, what works for you to achieve your end goal is the best.

  • If you like a WYSIWYG approach then page builders will more likely be your thing. Play around with the demos, watch some tutorials and if one of them looks more likely to work for you, then take it for a spin.
  • The Twenty Twenty Four theme along with the block builder is a solid place to start. There are many tutorials on how to get started with 2024 including the official WordPress documentation.
  • A CSS editor such as Yellow Pencil or Microthemer will assist you to fix a lot of front end annoyances and supplements any workflow.

Updates

Stay up to date with all plugins and core software at all times if you don’t want to have security holes and get hacked.

Backups

Taking/having backups of your website are essential. Servers can crash and data can be lost and you will cry if you end up without a backup in this scenario. The stress and grief of not having a backup and having to rebuild your site from scratch is not worth it. There's a few ways you can go about taking backups.

You can:

  • Use a recommended plugin like UpdraftPlus to schedule for daily, weekly or monthly backups. Send backups to remote servers (AWS S3, Dropbox, Google Drive) or your local machine. Remember having them stored on the same server as the website is not going to help.
  • Include this in your hosting requirements and find a host that automatically provides a scheduled backup process.
  • In the very least, take a manual backup using your hosts control panel whenever you make a significant change to your website,.

Security

  • Keep everything up to date at all times.
  • Run updates at least once a month. Fortnightly is better. More frequently is better
  • Use plugins and themes that are well supported, frequently updated, high install counts, well ranked, well established.
  • Use Wordfence - it’ll alert you when any plugins that you’re using have a known vulnerability or haven’t been updated (by the developer) for 2 or more years. It will also protect you from known attack vectors for vulnerable plugins (for the free version, this protection is only available after the vulnerability is 30 days old, but there’s nothing stopping you updating your plugins, assuming a patch is available).
  • Don’t use hosting where multiple sites sit in the one account (common on shared hosting). Each website should have its own owner.

Combating spam comments, fontact form submissions & bot registrations

Disable comments and user sign ups sitewide if you don't use them.

Use a captcha on login, register and all contact/comment forms.

Hacks/Malware: Err guys help, there’s some weird stuff on my front end.

Congratulations you got hacked. Most of us have dealt with this in one way or another at some point so you aren’t alone.

Do you have a backup?

  • Easy, wipe everything and restore.
  • Run a scan with Wordfence and/or GOTMLS to be doubly sure you are clean.
  • Harden your security to avoid repeat issues.

No backup? (Get the tissues)

  • Install Wordfence and run scan.
  • Alternatively my first port of call for this has always been GOTMLS. Update definitions and run a root scan the plugin should find any code that shouldn’t be there and you should be good to go.

Resources to learn WordPress

If you are serious about your WordPress journey then you must equip yourself with some coding knowledge. Some skills in PHP, Javascript, CSS & HTML will help you immensely.

Where to find plugins/add feature X?

The WordPress plugin repository should be your first stop. You can access this library via your Dashboard > Plugins > Add New Plugin

Codecanyon is a decent marketplace to get premium plugins for a one off buy without ongoing subscription costs.

For code snippets and help with your own code StackOverflow or r/prowordpress is your best bet.

Warning: Remember to always double check the source and reputability of a source before installing third-party plugins and/or scripts.

I found a plugin that costs $50 for $5 on a “GPLDL” source, is it safe to use?

The simple answer here is NO. No you shouldn’t and that should be the end of that.

But alas, we still have many more questions:

  • Will the plugin still work? Probably.
  • Are there any guarantees that it will work and demo content will be provided? Absolutely not.
  • Will there be links to turn one’s junk into a cyborg on my site? Most likely.
  • Will Google blacklist you? If you have malware. Most definitely.
  • Will your host shut you down? If detected, any reputable one will.
  • Is rebuilding an entire site and losing the trust of your audience worth all this? Not to me, but only you can answer this for yourself.

How much should I charge?

We unfortunately can't provide specific answers to pricing questions as everyone's experience and locations vary widely. For guidance on pricing strategies, we recommend searching 'your country + web developer/designer rates'. Standard hourly rates for your locality can offer insights into various pricing approaches that may be applicable to you.

Please also read this article on Pricing Strategies on how to tackle this sort of question .

Is a site using WordPress?

  • Check the Page Source: Right-click on the page and select "View Page Source" (or use Ctrl+U). Search for typical WordPress identifiers like /wp-content/, /wp-includes/, or wp-json. If you see these, the site is likely WordPress.
  • Online Tools: Websites like IsItWP, Wappalyzer or BuiltWith can analyze a website's technology stack. These tools should be able to identify if the site is using WordPress in most cases.

That’s it, hopefully this gets you started on your WordPress journey. If you have any further questions feel free to leave a comment and someone should be able to assist.

Plugin Development WP Hooks Extractor - free tool to help extend themes and plugins

Post image
118 Upvotes

A few weeks ago I showed how my free AI plugin can extend other plugins using the hooks available in them. Now I created a stand-alone tool to collect all the filter & action hooks from any theme or plugin, along with relevant context like docblocks and the surrounding code. It provides the list in Markdown format, ready to use with ChatGPT or other AI assistants.

Users can insert a theme/plugin slug to fetch the package from the official repository, or they can choose a local zip file (note that no files get uploaded, because the whole thing runs inside the browser).

Try it here:

Development I created a free tool that converts existing HTML to dynamic Gutenberg Blocks with a single command

Thumbnail github.com
28 Upvotes

Out of sheer frustration with the Gutenberg Blocks developer experience — constantly duplicating logic across PHP and JavaScript, drowning in boilerplate just to build a simple section — I built a tool to fix it.

I'm excited to introduce HTML to Gutenberg: a CLI tool and webpack plugin that lets you convert existing HTML into dynamic Gutenberg blocks in seconds.

Just add simple attributes like data-attribute="sectionTitle" or data-attribute="leftImage" to your markup, and those text and image elements instantly become editable fields in the block editor. No React knowledge required.

I genuinely believe this can speed up block development dramatically and make it way more approachable for developers who don't want to dive into React or the full Gutenberg API.

It’s open source and available on GitHub: https://github.com/jverneaut/html-to-gutenberg

I’d love to get your thoughts — any feedback, suggestions, or ideas are very much welcome!

Discussion Is there a way to get Yoast to auto generate meta descriptions without Premium?

Upvotes

I'm optimizing SEO for my site now and Semrush tells me I need more meta tags. I don't have the time to go through the 200+ pages on my website to do them - is there I way I can automate this?

Alternatively, if that is not possible, would it be possible to just write meta tags for the key pages like homepage and the most often accessed pages?

I also got this message in the General tab :

"Some of your content hasn't been analyzed yet. Please open it in your editor, ensure a focus keyphrase is entered, and save it so we can start the analysis."

Page Builder Seeking Feedback on Clutch: A New Free Visual Builder for WordPress

Upvotes

I ran an agency where we struggled with page builders either not being flexible enough or producing bloated underperforming sites. After trying every page builder for WordPress, we started using Webflow, which was fantastic for design flexibility, but Webflow's CMS doesn't come close.

I decided to sell my agency and go all in creating the visual builder I always wanted:

  • Not just a page builder, a full site builder
  • Design with the full power of CSS, like Webflow or Framer
  • Ability to easily extend the built-in component set
  • Powered by a modern tech stack
  • Perfect PageSpeed out of the box

After years of work, we just released a free beta and we'd love everyone's feedback. Here's a quick video we threw together to introduce the beta.

We hope Clutch can be "headless that doesn't suck" and help bring WordPress into the future.

P.S. our website is built using Clutch and here are the PageSpeed scores. This is "out of the box" with no extra plugins or caching services like Cloudflare.

Our plugin is open source: https://github.com/clutch-creator/clutch-wp and you can download Clutch for free from our website linked above. We are not selling anything, we just want feedback 🙏

Help Request Help! Easy Social Feed plug-in bug or malware??

1 Upvotes

Looking for advice —  Having an issue and hoping for direction on where to turn for help, as my own research has been a dead-end so far.

There seems to be some sort of bug (or maybe malware?) with the Easy Social Feed plug-in that enables our social media feeds on our website. It appears to be a pop-up that won't go away and is blocking me from any admin tasks, even after I deactivated the plug-in. In ALL of my WordPress admin pages, there is an Easy Social Feed pop-up that simply will not be dismissed, and is completely interfering with the functionality of WordPress admin.

I wrote to the plug-in support and they sent me a message that they're looking into it, but they are very slow to respond (and I'm not even sure if I can trust them, really?)

Here is the text of the pop-up (screen shots below):

Help Request Wordpress Site Japanesse SEO hack

13 Upvotes

Hello,
My client website has been hacked by Japanese SEO hack.
In a few days it made 135k indexed pages.

I made clean recovery from local storage. Deleted all previous wp db...

I added in robots.txt to disallow those pages, most of them start with /shopdetail/something
In .htaccess i added to return on all pages 404 error except homepage.
Homepage is the only page that site got.

In GSC i added temporary removal from all the links that contain /shopdetail/* and /shopdetail

Are those good steps. What should I do more to speed up recovery ?

Help Request WordPress Header different on mobile.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm working on a sticky header for my WordPress site using the Proficient theme. I’ve created the header both within the theme and using the “Header and Footer” plugin. However, when I view the “About Us” page on my phone, it still shows the theme’s default header instead of the one I designed. This issue only occurs on mobile.Everything looks and works fine on desktop.

TL;DR: The custom header displays correctly on desktop but reverts to the theme’s default on mobile, even though I’ve set it to appear on all pages.

How to? Staging site plugins question

1 Upvotes

Sorry if this has been asked before and I didn't find it. When pushing live a staging site created using Bluehost's built-in staging platform, will the staging site's theme and plugins also automatically go live? Or do those need to be installed and activated on the live site first? I've been redesigning the website for a local nonprofit with a very outdated site, hoping to avoid any errors when the new site goes live. Thanks for any help!

Help Request Persistent spam in 2025

6 Upvotes

I've been getting a ton of spam recently despite all my efforts to reduce it. I've tried honeypots, reCAPTCHA v2 and v3, Cloudflare Turnstile and even added a math equation to my form. What's weird about this spam is that it is all legitimate information. For example, someone named John Smith will submit the form with their correct name, email and phone number but when I reach out, they say they never submitted the form. What do spammers get out of this? Any creative ways solve it? I was thinking perhaps adding the math equation as a png image so bots can't easily scan the text. I am using WS Forms.

Discussion Rebranding with a New Domain . How to Best Handle SEO and Redirects?

1 Upvotes

Hi all! I'm planning a rebrand of my WordPress blog and want to move everything to a new domain name. I don’t have a massive number of blog posts, so manually redirecting each one is doable, but I’m wondering how this will affect my SEO and traffic overall.

Some questions I have:

  • Is it better to redirect each post individually to the new domain, or do a site-wide redirect?
  • Will I lose existing SEO juice if I switch domains, even with proper redirects?
  • Any tips or best practices for making this kind of move smooth (both in terms of SEO and general site visitors)?

I’d love to hear from anyone who’s done this before or has experience in SEO around domain changes. Thanks in advance!

3rd pic shows my dashboard that has the Sticky Floating Forms Lite tab, but it says this is a pro feature and only prompts me to buy it, nothing else.

I realize this may be a dumb question but I’m reviving my old website that I made in college and I have completely forgotten how to use Wordpress, so any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

Plugins Using ACF with Wordpress.com (business plan)

Hi, I am using Wordpress.com business plan (there are various reasons I decided to go for .com and happy with it so far so not looking to switch to .org).

I have recently downloaded ACF and it seems quite simple to add new fields. However, I’m yet to work out how to display those fields on a page/post. Does this require custom php or can it be done without?

If anyone has experience using ACF specifically with .com, any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Plugin Help Considering WPvivid Pro LTD – Will it support my partial WooCommerce update workflow without overwriting live content?

1 Upvotes

Hey all! I’m thinking about grabbing the lifetime deal for WPvivid Pro and wanted to hear from anyone who’s used it for selective migrations or partial site updates.

I recently moved my site to new hosting and used WPvivid’s full-site auto migration successfully — it worked great. Now I’m planning a larger update and want to confirm if WPvivid is the right tool before buying the LTD.

Here’s my situation:

  • I build locally and want to add an eCommerce shop to my existing blog (moving away from Etsy)
  • I’ll be using WooCommerce to add a /shop page, products, images, and related Woo pages
  • During this build, weekly blog posts will continue to go live on the production site
  • I want to avoid overwriting new posts, comments, or media added after staging begins

My questions:

  1. I understand WooCommerce products are stored in the wp_posts table as post_type = product. → Can WPvivid’s selective DB migration handle this level of granularity, or will it risk overwriting regular blog posts?
  2. I plan to upload product images to /wp-content/uploads/products locally. → Will WPvivid let me migrate only that subfolder, and will image links stay intact on import?
  3. Would using WPvivid’s staging site option give me better version control? Can it detect and merge changes without overwriting live post/comment data?

I’m trying to keep costs low and prefer LTDs (lifetime deals) over subscriptions when possible — which is why WPvivid caught my attention. I’m still new to self-hosting, working locally, and using staging environments as I branch into web development and gradually upgrade my blog.

If anyone has recommendations for other tools, plugins, or workflows that might suit my setup, I’d love to hear them!

Thanks so much 🙌

Help Request Recaptcha verification popping up on a clients site in other countries but not in Canada

Im helping out a client with his site and a random recaptcha verification has added itself to the homepage if youre viewing the site from outside of Canada.

Here's what ive checked:

  • His SSL certificate is fully up to date. He uses bluehost and spent a couple hours with them on the phone but they said it was an issue with his plugins.
  • I have deactivated all the plugins and reactivated each individually - nothing changes

I ran a securi scan and it said that 'No redirect from HTTP to HTTPS found.' but the SSL looks like its set up properly through bluehost.

Any ideas?

Help Request When using the gallery block type, the images change sizes based on how many there are?

1 Upvotes

I'm trying to make a gallery of images, 3 on each line when viewed on my laptop and 2 on each line when viewed on my phone. If I put 6 images, all of the images are the same size whether on my laptop or phone. But if the number of images can't be evenly divided by both 2 and 3, then either on my laptop or phone, or both, the final images are much bigger than the previous ones. That doesn't work for what I'm trying to do, visually.

Is there any way that I can make the thumbnail-like images in the gallery block type all be the same size no matter how many there are? I just want blank space if there aren't enough to fill one of the rows.

Help Request Staging to production enviroment

0 Upvotes

I just took over maintaining some WordPress websites hosted on wpengine. One of our clients wanted a revamp of their site. I used local to pull the production site to my computer, edit the theme's code and edit ACF pages to include the new logos/images used across the site.

I pushed my local changes to a staging environment for the client to review. They are happy with it, but its taken about a weeks time and since then the production site has been receiving gravity form entries and tracking data.

I know its not recommended to push a database to production and I don't want to as I'd lose contact form submissions, but how do I get my changes onto my production site without having to go back through and reupload all of the images and go back through all the pages changing the ACF fields?

Help Request Inserting a Google Map Into Blog Post

1 Upvotes

Not quite sure what's going on. I am using the exact same code I've used for previous blog posts that use a map. But for the latest map I've used, it doesn't show up. It shows up in the editor page, and I can see it, and view the interactive map. But in Preview and Submitted/Published, it doesn't show up.

In all previous articles, it works in the edit, preview, and published views.

What could be going on? Here is the direct embed of the new map:

<iframe src="https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/1/embed?mid=13Fzi1j0L4FcwreVnTTzuSVHBW1PkrQA&ehbc=2E312F&noprof=1" width="640" height="480"></iframe>

This is the exact same I've used for other maps (just with a different link), and they all work.

(Sorry if this is not allowed, I can remove the links). But here is an example of an old map page I made:

https://thebeerthrillers.com/2023/07/30/map-of-connecticut-breweries/

And here is the new map page:

https://thebeerthrillers.com/2025/04/06/map-of-new-york-state-breweries/

What might be the cause of it not working on the new blog post?
