Sometimes you might see this error when trying to upload an image in WordPress:
The server cannot process the image. This can happen if the server is busy or does not have enough resources to complete the task. Uploading a smaller image may help. Suggested maximum size is 2560 pixels.
Whenever a user creates a password for their account in WordPress, by default you see a meter telling you how strong your password is:
You may see this both on the backend, for example in the Edit User screen, and on the front end, for example when WooCommerce customers create an account in your shop.
This password strength meter feature is handled automatically by a few files, one of them being: zxcvbn.min.js
Now that DesktopServer has sadly closed down, it’s time to move to another tool for working with WordPress locally. I’m going to be using Local (formerly Local by Flywheel) for now.
Fortunately it’s easy to migrate from DesktopServer to Local.
Local has an import tool and it just requires a zip file with your site files and your database.
This is exactly how DesktopServer’s export feature creates backups.
So first we’ll use DesktopServer to create the backup file. Then we’ll import it into Flywheel.
When you are working with a WordPress development or staging site in conjunction with a live site, there are often times when you just want to migrate a couple of products, for example, from staging to live, without re-migrating the whole site. Or you may be looking for a way to keep products synchronized between your sites.
While there are some tools, like WP Migrate DB (pro), that let you sync databases pretty easily, that can be overkill for some situations, and they tend to be more developer-centric.
Turning off JavaScript in your browser can be helpful so that you can see which elements of your site require JavaScript to display. When troubleshooting PageSpeed issues and especially when trying to remove unused JavaScript, this is a quick way to see the impact of JavaScript on your site.
When things aren’t working as expected on your site, or you get an error notification from WordPress, you will need to check the error logs for your site.
WordPress runs on PHP and the error logs let you know when PHP had problems running code. PHP errors are often the reason plugins or your theme aren’t working as expected.
