I have triggered the redirect now and I hesitate to speak to soon, but it seems that this might be fine.
I had to re do the links in WP (as expected).
There were two pages (the WP home and one other), that did NOT have custom URL's for their respective menu items (so I could not edit them!), - I assume the 'other' page was generated purely by WP whereas maybe all my other pages were originally from my TTG Theme - I'm not sure.
Anyway, I used Quick Page/Post Plugin to redirect these two pages - and basically all seems to be well.
Just one concern, but hopefully this will come good .... with Yoast installed, this is showing me a preview of the Goggle Snippet and and under the Page Title is the URL which at the moment is displaying the sub-domain URL.
However, when I go to my webmaster tools - all seems well.
Hopefully, once Google has 'refreshed' the correct URL's will be displayed.
If this does turn out to be all good, then building in a sub-domain with Phplugins and Wordpress as well, then redirecting root domain to this would seem to work well.
I haven't tried a re-direct yet - my build isn't really ready, just anticipating what is to come.
Ok ... I'll re-categorise to minor freaking for the time being.
thx - I'll be back
Hi Rod,
This news is considerably freaking me out.
I thought I was being smart by developing in a sub domain (http://ttg-tips-and-tricks.barbeephoto. … ub-domain/), but with the Wordpress install (and phplugins) this is beginning to sound complicated.
Matt - if you're listening, could you comment please on the pros/cons of moving to the root domain versus a using a redirect?
Many thanks
Will I need to start again with a TTG Pages export with a blank server path for the plugins,
I'm actually confused now as to what you're trying to do, what your set up is, and what your ultimate goal is.
If you're site is Pages based, why do you need the WordPress navigation? Why not then just base the site on WordPress?
Can you give us an outline?
I'm using Pages for my Home page (full screen flip gallery managed by Publisher).
I'm using Stage to create the template for this Home page flip gallery (although currently I've broken this somehow).
I'm using Gallery to export gallery templates for Publisher galleries.
The 'Enter' button on my home page takes me to /about - and the About page is the root of my Wordpress.
All other pages are created in Wordpress using Beaver Builder.
I did the phplugin 'magic' stuff to hook in all the menus together. I are can't remember what that involved as is was a few weeks ago.
All this is severed up from my test sub domain.
So, when I move it all to my Root domain, I will need to update the phplugin server path. So, I presume this means going through the same process of leaving the path blank initially, the doing the Ping thing, then putting the path in all the other TTG templates and exporting it all again?
After doing all that, will the phplugin 'magic' menu thing still work?
(Yes, I have probably made this over complicated for my skill level. I should probably drop the home page flip gallery bit and just stick to the Wordpress theme and Publisher managed galleries.)
it's in the Navigation section of Site Info

Thankyou!
Oh boy .... honestly, I don't come here lightly any more, but I have just spent at least the last 20 minutes solely looking for the Mobile Break point slider (that I was using earlier) and it is absolutely no where to be found.
Could somebody please point me in the right direction?
Many thanks
I didn't have a CE3 version, I'm coming all the way from CE2 I think.
Redirect doesn't sound wise, so yes I'll need top move it to the root.
I'm just worried what will break, because I'm still not really understanding how it all fits together and works.
Will I need to start again with a TTG Pages export with a blank server path for the plugins, then do the Ping thing and put the path back into all the other TTG bits?
And will I then have to re-do any other Phplugin work or is it just the path update?
how can I choose the order in which gallery thumbnails appear?
'descriptive' layout - if that is relevant
thx
Ok, at least it wasn't a silly question then!
But moving everything into the Root would seem rather complicated ... after re-pinging for the new path, would I then also have to redo all the Navigation Magic as well?
Umm
one more please ... although this is a bit unrelated ...
I am working on a sub domain test build - when I'm all done and ready to 'go live' ... do I move everything into my root domain folder or do I point my root domain over to my test sub domain?
and this question arises from what is my Blog feed RSS ... is it ... test.domain.co.uk/feed or is it .... domain.co.uk/feed ?
thx again!
thx!
Oh ... I was actually referring to an export from Pages, but I can see now I need to update the Theme too.
With the Pages export do I need to replace everything here as well?
(If that question makes any sense)
Ok, so I changed the mobile break point for the navigation items and I also made some changes to the styling of mobile menu items. Now I need to export this again from LR.
1. which components do I need to update on my server?
2. can I use my existing phplugins.php file or do I need to do the magic again?
I get worried at this point, because I don't won't to break existing stuff that is currently working.
Thx
With consideration to my design that combines TTG Pages + TTG Galleries + lots of other pages created in WP dashboard ....
Should I enter things like Google Analytics Web Property ID in my TTG Pages export or just just rely on Yoast to sort all this out?
thx
Cool - and nobody died?
My site is mainly built on the TTG WP Theme but uses TTG Pages for Home page flip gallery and also uses TTG Galleries with Publisher etc.
I installed the plugin Yoast SEO - is that sensible?
The plugin has immediately created the following notification ...
Your theme contains a meta description, which blocks Yoast SEO from working properly.Please delete the following line, or press Fix It:
<meta name="description" content="<?php echo ttg_pageDesc(); ?>" />
Is this a problem - what should I do?
Thanks - as always
How can I control the styling of the Blog Post Titles?
i.e size, colour, bold, underline
thx
Now that my site is mixture of Pages and Wordpress and my navigation menus have been integrated with the Phplugin 'magic' .....
is there a way that I can change the mobile break point from inside WP dashboard?
(breakpoint for the menu items)
Would a WP plugin be the way to go for that?
I'm not overly bothered about the two lines at the bottom of my page - I have more pressing matters!
But just for the record ... I can't find anything in the Color Palette, (or anywhere else in LR for that matter) that effects these lines.
(the lines between the posts further up the page, I have inserted myself)
thanks!
Hide Title worked a treat!
Is it generally cool just to Google and trust all Plugins? - I read somewhere to be paranoid of bad code, hacking and viruses etc
RE: the line at the bottom - Where is Color Palette > Border Settings? - I can't find it anywhere!
thx again
Sorry guys - I'm back for another few rounds!
I'm using the free version of Page Builder (or Beaver Builder - I believe).
I'm working on this ...
http://www.ce4.photostomp.co.uk/about/
I want to get rid of the default page heading "About" and also the bit at the bottom of page where it says "Edit" with the pencil icon and the also the two lines below that!
If I go to TOOLS > Global Settings it says I can turn off the default heading, but I need to enter the 'CSS selector for default page heading' - so what and where is that please?
.fl-post-header - seems to be entered at the moment, but the heading is still appearing.
(Then also, how to deal with the bottom bits as above)
Thanks!
thanks Rod, helpful as always
On my Home Page Flip gallery here ...
http://www.ce4.photostomp.co.uk
Is it possible for me to change the size of the h1 heading "PhotoStomp" using custom CSS perhaps?
Even better, could it have sizing controlled by a mobile/tablet breakpoint?
Ah, yes I came across that error page earlier - I assumed it was my fault of course!
Is it possible to specify which Exported components from Pages must be replaced?
i.e can I use my previous and already altered / updated phplugins.php file .... or must I export and update this again?
RESULT - I have a working skeleton :-) :-) :-)

All I need now is find some decent content!
