Hello! Thanks for the excellent question.

WooCommerce has some really excellent directions here in their support documentation. I also found a very easy-to-follow tutorial here on woobeginner.com. PayPal also has some additional information about their developer mode.

I hope this helps!

Hello, thank you for the interesting question, I had to look this up myself!

There's a couple of ways you can do this using Custom CSS in your Customize -> Advanced -> Custom CSS & JS menu, but the only way I can think of to make sure that all of the email address links on your whole site do not have underlines:

a[href^="mailto"] {
    text-decoration: none;
}

This rule will remove the underlines from any email address link on your website.

Please keep in mind that for accessibility purposes, it is generally frowned-upon to remove the underline from links on your website. The reasoning for this is that if a user visits your website who is not able to see color, the underline is the only recognizable indicator that text might is a link.

I hope this helps!

Hello,

Thanks for the great question. Since you're hosting with InMotion Hosting, your Premium BoldGrid Connect Key is already attached to the email address you used to sign up for your hosting service.

As long as you are logging into BoldGrid Central with the same email address, you'll see your website listed in the "Connected Websites" section:

Hello,

Thanks for the great question, I'm sorry you're having trouble saving your updates.

If the page you're working on has already been published, you'll use the blue "Update" button:

If the page you're working on hasn't been published yet, you can use either the "Save Draft" or "Publish" buttons:



I hope this helps!

Glad to hear that helped you out! If you have a moment, I'd be extremely grateful if you could help spread the word by leaving us a review on WordPress.org

Hello,

Thanks for the excellent question, I'm sorry that your site is loading strangely for you.

To answer your question, menus in WordPress are actually created as HTML Lists, like this:

  • Home
  • About Us
  • Services
    • Service 1
    • Service 2

This allows for your site to be easily navigated by non-graphical users, notably search engines like Google, and people using Screen Reader software for accessibility purposes.

When your site gets loaded by a graphical browser, the HTML is loaded first, and then after that the CSS loads, so that it looks the way you've designed it. Most of the time, this happens so fast that you don't actually see it. However, depending on your hosting, connection speed, and the overall size of your website, you might see it very quickly, as you described.

As far as fixing this issue, there are a couple of ways you can optimize for speed. First, I highly recommend trying out our brand new Website Speed Test in BoldGrid Central, Speed Coach. It can analyze your website and give you specific advice on speeding it up.

I also highly recommend using a caching plugin like W3 Total Cache which can greatly speed up your website. If you have a lot of international visitors who are far from your hosting provider's server, a CDN like Cloudflare can help by keeping cached copies of your website on servers all around the globe.

I hope this helps!

Hello,

I'm really sorry to hear about your frustration and lost time. We're aware of similar issues occurring to users viewing their mobile sites on iOS Safari, such as iPhones and iPads, and we're working on a fix.

Issue #2 stems from how Mobile Safari treats the "cover" CSS background-size rule. Our developers came up with this CSS Snippet that you can paste into your custom CSS via the Customize -> Advanced -> Custom CSS & JS menu:

@media (max-width: 991px) {
body.custom-background {
background-size: cover !important;
max-height: 100vh;
background-position: center top !important;
}
}

Issue #1 is a little tougher, particularly with long words like "photography." You can see that your title is scaling down, but not enough to keep the word on the screen:

To prevent that, we can add another rule to the CSS snippet above to set the font-size to a percentage of the "View Width" (vw), like so:

@media (max-width: 991px) {
    body.custom-background {
        background-size: cover !important;
        max-height: 100vh;
        background-position: center top !important;
    }
    .site-title {
        font-size: 10vw;
    }
}

Which will look like this:

I hope this helps you out!

Hello, 

Thanks for the excellent question, we're always looking for feedback about what types of features people need from our Cloud WordPress staging environment.

At this time, all Cloud WordPress installations are running on PHP 7.1.30, with current versions of Apache and MariaDB, and these values cannot be changed.

We do have plans to allow developers to change the PHP version, but I don't have a precise timeline on that feature at this time. I'm not aware of any plans to allow changing the actual Services for Apache and MySQL, but I will definitely let the development team know about your use-case and need for this feature.

Hello, thank you for the question regarding the WooCommerce Templates.

We are aware of this error in WooCommerce and we're tracking the issue on GitHub. At this time we're not aware of any actual issues this is causing with WooCommerce functionality.

The feature that you're referring to, "Allow customers to create an account during checkout," doesn't actually show anything during the checkout process, but actually creates your customer's account automatically based on the checkout information they provide.

You can test this out by visiting your shop in Incognito or Private Browsing, purchase one of your products using an email that is not associated with any account on your website, and as soon as you have purchased, visit the "My Account" page, and you'll find that you're already logged in. Typically a password email will be sent to the new customer as well.
