How to Switch Post Types In WordPress?

Leave a comment

By switching post types you can convert any post into a page or custom post type, you can also convert any page into a post or custom post type or any custom post type into a page or post.

There are various options available to bulk convert post types in your WordPress site. But you can also individually switch any post type from the post edit screen.

Post Type Switcher is a WordPress plugin that adds a simple post-type drop-down to your post edit screens. Thus, allowing you to reassign any post to a new post type while editing your post.

Once activated, it can convert nearly every combination of posts, pages, and custom post types on your WordPress website:

  1. Post to Page
  2. Page to Post
  3. Post to Custom Post Type
  4. Custom Post Type to another Custom Post Type

While converting any post the invisible post types, such as revisions, menus, etc, are excluded. But, in case if you need to access invisible post types, you can adjust the boundaries of the plugin by using the ‘pts_post_type_filter’ filter.

Apart from this, bulk editing allows you to select all the posts in a certain type and convert them to a new type with one quick action.

How To Fix The Issues WordPress Has With SSL?

Leave a comment

You can seamlessly map your website URLs to HTTPS and get most of the mixed and insecure content errors automatically fixed on your WordPress website.

If you have SSL subscribed and your site has access to it, then you just need to install-activate a WordPress plugin called Really Simple SSL, and that’s it. Your site will get automatically moved to a secure HTTPS connection.

The plugin instantly configures SSL on your WordPress site, without any modifications to other files and settings.

In case you don’t have an SSL then the first thing you need to do is subscribe to an SSL of your choice. You may either go for a Standard or Premium SSL or you may subscribe to a Completely Managed SSL Service.

Once you have SSL, just activate Really Simple SSL plugin on your website. It saves you from hours of work.

As soon the plugin is activated, it –

  • Automatically updates the siteurl and homeurl to HTTPS
  • Automatically fixes all insecure and mixed content errors
  • Automatically redirects all incoming URL requests to HTTPS
  • Automatically handles most issues that WordPress has with SSL

The plugin works by using an internal WordPress redirect, but it also allows you to use a .htaccess redirect instead. It handles when you’re behind a reverse proxy/load balancer and takes care when no headers are passed, which WordPress uses to detect an SSL connection

The insecure and mixed content on your website is dynamically fixed by replacing all HTTP URLs with secure HTTPS, except hyperlinks given to other websites. This URL migration is dynamic so no database changes are made, except for the site URL and home URL. The plugin sets PHP cookies securely with the httpOnly flag.

Every Child Is A Born Hacktivist

Leave a comment

Whatever the child in the photograph above, is doing happily, may also become a neceesary lesson in life, to start with. So let the children play the way they like.

The nature doesn’t repeat itself. That is how every child gets gifted in another way. Many people are not gifted to understand the beauty of this.

Children are born as potential hacktivists. Forced schooling spoils them. They get corrupted in the course. But the times are changed all of sudden.

Schools, colleges, jobs and qualifications are all hanged

Old world’s parameters -such as schools, colleges, qualifications and jobs- are all hanged. Nobody knows what future awaits them in the end but their hell is obviously present.

Now only this makes a sense that you encourage your child to become a Sangkrit whizzkid since Sangkrit whizzkids hold the key to the future of humanity.

Homeschool your children to build an online future

Let your children be living and learning the best for them under your own care. That is to get driven by their own curiosity in practice.

All the children are the gifted ones. The time has already come to understand the natural potential of your children and respect that above all to act accordingly.

To not let their lives go offline ever again

Thus homeschooling a potential Sangkrit whizzkid with all possible support at https://sangkrit.net can make him graduate as an young hacktivist. That leads the whole family also into a domestic entrepreneurship This works pretty well anywhere in the world.

Functioning as people’s personal outlets by extending any necessary online support they are to be distributing everything into networking enabled apps. They build a better future to help everyone around.

Sangkrit whizzkids are indeed helpful in providing any necessary online support to other people’s personal outlets from their homes. Doing so, charging hourly per terminal basis, they earn as much money as much their skills improve with practising online. They need not be dealing with anything bothering them offline.

How To Use Domain Redirects On cPanel Of Your Server Or Hosting?

Leave a comment

Using domain redirects you can redirect an entire domain or selective links to a new domain or links to individual pages. While configuring a domain redirect on cPanel, you will notice that there are two types of redirect options; temporary redirect, and permanent redirects.

  • A 301 redirect i.e. permanent redirect means that you are directing the page permanently. It prompts the search engines and HTTP clients to update their caches to the new link. It simply indicates that the page has been moved to a new address permanently. This is useful when you move your website to a new domain.
  • A 302 redirect i.e. temporary redirect means Found, but it is mainly used to tell the search engines and HTTP clients that the page is temporarily redirected and will soon be available to the old address, so there is no need for them to update their caches, etc. This is useful while you are developing your website or working on a page.

To configure a redirect, simply log in to your SANGKRIT.net account and follow these steps:

  1. Open the products page
  2. Select your hosting or server
  3. Open your cPanel hosting account or select a cPanel of your server
  4. Scroll down to the Domains section and click the Redirects option
  5. Select Permanent (301) or Temporary (302) from the first dropdown
  6. Choose the domain you want to redirect
  7. In case you are redirecting a page, simply paste the URL of the page
  8. Add the new destination domain or URL including https:// or http:// protocol
  9. Click the Add button

You will also notice that there is a wild card redirect option present as a checkbox. Ticking this option will redirect all of a site’s pages to the same URL you have entered.

How To Use New IP On Your Domain On Dedicated Server?

Leave a comment

After subscribing to a new IP address you can add it to your domain on your dedicated server. Simply log in to your SANGKRIT.net account and follow these steps:

  1. Open the products page
  2. Select your server and click manage
  3. On your WHM home page i.e. the main page of your server
  4. Navigate to Add a New IP Address under IP Functions of the side menu
  5. Enter the new IP address and a subnet mask
  6. Click Submit to finish

Remember:

  • In step number five, if you don’t know which subnet mask is to be entered, just contact the online support team
  • In step number six, in case you make a mistake, you can delete the new address in the Show or Delete Current IP Addresses option

As you click the Submit button, the new IP address gets added. Now you can associate it with your cPanel hosting or other domain accounts on your server.

To change an existing site’s IP address to the new one you will need to follow these steps:

  1. Open the List Accounts page from the Account Information menu
  2. Select the domain account you want to change
  3. Click the “+” next to the domain name
  4. Click the Change IP Address button
  5. Select the IP you just added

That’s it. Once you have changed your website’s IP, the site will not be available to the old IP address, and it should also appear offline to the new IP address for sometime.

How To Convert Absolute URLs Into Relative URLs In WordPress?

Leave a comment

WordPress always saves the content using the actual domain i.e. the domain you use to write your content.

But sometimes it may cause you issues especially when you want to develop your WordPress site locally using a local host server or blog on one domain and then go live on another. Because then you need to replace all URLs in your database.

This lesson guides you on how you can easily convert all absolute URLs into relative URLs.

Relative URLs is the new WordPress plugin that allows you to move from localhost to a live domain with minimal effort. The plugin doesn’t change the links in the database, so you can develop in the staging area or on a subdomain, or a sub-directory without worrying to replace URLs in your content.

The plugin doesn’t replaces the URLs in the database but:

  • It removes the domain name on internal links
  • It also removes the domain name on image sources for the images that are located on your server

Using this plugin you can:

  • Switch between HTTP and HTTPS sites
  • Move from one directory to another with minimal effort
  • Go live in one domain and carry on your development in another
  • Backup a production site from one domain and restore it for testing process on another domain

One important thing to take note of is the plugin should always be used for local development only. As it may conflict with your server-based cache services such as Nginx or Varnish.

Configuring SFTP On Your Dedicated Server

Leave a comment

SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol) is one secure file protocol used to manage, and transfer files over an encrypted transport connection. In comparison to the traditional FTP protocol, it offers all the functionality in a more secure and easier to configure way.

The lesson guides you on how to connect your cPanel account via SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol or Secure File Transfer Protocol).

SFTP clients generally require the following information to make a connection to the server. Open your SFTP client and configure it with the following information:

  1. Hostname — Your server’s hostname (for example, hostname.yourdomain.com)
  2. SSH port number — The port number on which sshd listens (for instance, 22)
  3. Security — Whether the client combines FTP and SFTP functionality
  4. Username — The SSH username that the client uses to connect to the server
  5. Password — The SSH user’s password
  6. Private Key — The SSH user’s private key

Lets Make This Easier For You,

  • In step number six, this is the absolute path to a private key on your local machine (for instance, c:\data\id_dsa)
  • In step number four, the username can be a valid cPanel account username or the root user
  • Remember, you cannot use your FTP account to connect via SFTP
  • SFTP is not just FTP over SSH. Instead, it is an entirely separate protocol
  • cPanel users can generate and download a private key via cPanel’s SSH Access interface via cPanel -> Home -> Security -> SSH Access
  • The root users can generate and download a private key via WHM’s Manage root’s SSH Keys interface on a dedicated server or VPS via WHM -> Home -> Security Center -> Manage root’s, SSH Keys

Sometimes, you may see a warning that the host of the server is unknown. To cut back on such situations in the future, accept the key and store it on your local machine.

How To Update Folder & File Permissions On cPanel?

Leave a comment

All files have some preset permission that directs the cPanel system on handling different access requests. For instance: The file permission tells the cPanel what files are only readable, or editable, or hidden on your server.

You can change file permissions by performing a few steps. Simply log in to your SANGKRIT.net account and follow these steps:

  1. Open the products page
  2. Select your hosting or server
  3. Open your cPanel account
  4. Scroll down and open the FILE MANAGER
  5. Click Settings to open the Preferences box
  6. Click Permissions on the top toolbar
  7. Now simply use the checkboxes or given text boxes to update the permissions. The setting defaults to 0644
  8. When you are done, click Change Permissions 
  9. Your changes will be saved by the system

Note: You can visually change the file permission by using the tick box. In case, if you are using number code to change file permissions then you should know that:

  1. Zero is no permission
  2. Read permission is r or 4
  3. Write permission is w or 2
  4. Execute permission is x or 1

Where,

  • Read allows users to view and read the file
  • Write allows users to edit and update the file
  • Execute allows users to run the file as a program

But the permissions have a different meaning on folders:

  1. Read enables users to list and view the files in the directory
  2. Write enables users to create, rename, and delete files in the directory
  3. Execute enables users to access the files and folders within the directory

Next to each file permission, there are tick boxes for user groups. It allows you to set what permissions on a file are applied to what group of users. There are three groups given as checkboxes:

  • User means permissions are applied to the owner of the file
  • Group means permissions are applied to other users on the group to which the file belongs to
  • World means the permissions are applied for everyone, this also includes users who are not in the group to which the file belongs to

Housewives Deserve Wages

Leave a comment

Housewives also deserve wages. So neither they do suffer through the marriage nor struggle for alimony when divorce. Both the situations have been only disrespectful to women.

Civilizations were built mainly by oppressing and suppressing the housewives. Thus women were made socially bonded into unpaid labour. This has been a thankless job till now.

Build a new world order

A new world led by the people’s personal outlets of https://system.sangkrit.net is getting determined for changing all that. With this any woman can become financially independent within no time.

She may easily start selling its world-class cloud infrastructure bundled with her own system administration along with any necessary online support and instant global exposure to every business. She can easily be selling all this to any ongoing and upcoming business. This is enough to run her life with dignity anywhere in the world. Such a business suits best to every housewife also.

Sangkrit makes the women lead to help everyone startup as a people’s personal outlet, to let everything happen upon the personal app of a new humankind, developing the next universe where every domain is individually owned. This is the business of becoming a people’s personal outlet in the globally distributed order of home employments for everyone involved with Sangkrit.

With a new legislation everywhere

Any spouse, whether wife or husband, if responsible for managing the household, is to be paid annually, monthly, weekly or daily half of the income of the working spouse that regularly. Not paying half of the income that regularly to the housekeeping spouse is to be made a crime of the working spouse.

Laws must get made everywhere ensuring all that. In the meantime, Sangkrit’s four fundamentals are already abolishing the discriminating gender difference by making the men also equally responsible for cleaning and cooking in every Sangkrit household.

How To Configure PHP Directives On Your Server?

Leave a comment

PHP allows you to control different aspects of your websites by using directives in php.ini files. These files contain the default configuration for the operation of PHP applications.

By using PHP directives you can control different variables such as upload size, file timeout, and resource limit, etc of websites running on your hosting, VPS, or dedicated server.

To add or edit a PHP directive – Log in to your SANGKRIT.net account and follow these steps:

  1. Open cPanel of your server or hosting option
  2. Navigate to the File Manager interface via cPanel -> Home -> Files -> File Manager
  3. Make sure that hidden files are visible to you or you can enable them via Settings, by ticking the Show hidden files checkbox option
  4. Navigate to the target directory.
  5. Create a new file – click New File / + File button
  6. Enter .user.ini filename
  7. Click Create New File button
  8. Select the new file from the list of files and click Edit
  9. Now enter the PHP directives you wish to adjust for the present directory
  10. Click the Save button

INI files can be configured on per-directory basis and are processed only by the CGI/FASTCGI SAPI. This functionality obsoletes the PECL htscanner extension. If you are running PHP as an Apache module then the .htaccess file will do your thing.

In addition to the main INI file, PHP scans each directory for its INI file. In a case where the PHP file has been kept outside the document root, only its directory is scanned.

How To Modify Error Pages Of Your Website?

Leave a comment

The error pages inform the clients about the issue stopping them to access the requested URL. Each error has its own status code as thoroughly discussed in this lesson.

The server itself provides all basic error pages by default. Still, you can edit specific error pages to define your own custom error messages.

To customize any error page of your website:

  1. Login to your SANGKRIT.net account and open the cPanel of your hosting or server
  2. On cPanel admin, if this account manages multiple domains then select the domain for which you wish to edit an error page from the Managing menu
  3. Click the error status code for which you wish to edit its error page
  4. In case, if you do not see the desired error status code, click the Show All HTTP Error Status Codes tab to select your error status code
  5. Enter a message in the text box. Then click the appropriate buttons for the information that you wish to display to the visitor of your website.
  6. You may also enter additional HTML code and further customize your error pages
  7. Next, click Save to secure your new error pages

How To Identify & Fix HTTP Errors Of Your Website?

Leave a comment

Every HTTP error has an HTTP code that describes the status of a URL to the client. These three-digit codes include error messages that visitors encounter.

Following are the five classes of HTTP codes divided into categories, by the first digit:

  1. Errors starting with 1, 2, or 3 are fully functional requests
  2. Errors starting with 4 are client-side error, the most common error codes span 400 to 404
  3. Errors starting with 5 are server-side error, the most common error codes span 500 to 510

4xx Errors

These errors show up where there is a problem with the client’s request (web browser etc), but often point to a problem on a website.

For instance: You have a broken link on your website, the client requests it and receives a 404 error page. That is how it works.

To resolve this you can check for broken links on your website. On WordPress this can be either done by a plugin or you can check error pages from cPanel -> Home -> Advanced -> Error Pages.

400 Bad Request

It happens when the user’s request contains an incorrect syntax.

401 Unauthorized

The error shows up when the requested file is a protected one and requires authentication, such as a username and password.

403 Forbidden

In general, this happens when the index file is missing on your server or the root directory is empty, or when you have purchased a new hosting and have not uploaded your website or have not installed WordPress, etc.

Other times, it happens when the server stops the visitor to access the requested file. To resolve this, check for the file’s permission settings. Also see whether the system protects the file in cPanel’s Indexes interface (cPanel -> Home -> Advanced -> Indexes).

404 Not Found

When the server doesn’t find the requested URL. Commonly occurs when a visitor mistypes a URL or you have interlinked to a dead URL.

Managed WordPress users may use a permalink finder plugin to reduce this error to zero.

5xx Errors

Such errors occur when a server fails to full fill an apparently-valid request made by the client. These errors are a little bit complicated because sometimes a chain of servers handles an HTTP request which means that the error may also come from other server.

In WordPress, you can resolve it by testing your themes and plugins as it generally comes from there.

Comment below for any assistance in this regard.

500 Internal Server Error

The error is a result of misconfiguration, especially when the server finds some unexpected condition and fails to gather any information about the real problem it is facing.

501 Not Implemented

Comes when the server does not support the client’s chosen HTTP method. Also, occurs on out-of-date servers. To resolve, try reloading your page, clear the browser cache. Other issues might include viruses or malware or an overload on your server.

502 Bad Gateway

Occurs when proxy servers are badly configured or IP communication between backend systems is poor or when the client’s Internet Service Provider (ISP) is overloaded. May also occur due to imroperly configured firewall functions.

Clearing the client’s (web browser) cache sometimes work in resolving this issue. Other times, you may need to report the issue to an expert. You may also comment here for help.

Try to start a new browser session, restart your system and network, change DNS and clear your cache.

503 Service Unavailable

When a server fails to handle requests due to a temporary overload or when the server is temporarily under maintenance. Generally happens when you update your website’s software. To resolve, simply wait.

504 Gateway Timeout

Comes when a server did not receive a timely response. Can happen temporarily or when your server starts to go out of resources or due to slow communication between upstream servers. To resolve, look for any server connectivity issues, check the requested page code, test your firewall for any faults.

505 HTTP Version Not Supported

When the server refuses to allow the HTTP protocol that the client system specifies. This error generally occurs when the user’s system incorrectly specifies the protocol. To resolve, switch to a modern web browser.

506 Variant Also Negotiates

Means the server is not properly configured. To resolve this issue, contact an expert or research yourself or comment below.

507 Insufficient Storage

Simply means that the server is out of free memory. The error comes when requested application fails to allocate necessary server resources. To resolve this issue, contact an expert or research yourself or comment below.

509 Bandwidth Limit Exceeded

This means that your server has reached its bandwidth limit, and you need more resources. To resolve, wait every time until the limit resets or try reducing your resource usage or upgrade your hosting plan or move to a dedicated server.

510 Not Extended

Shows up when the webserver does not support the extension attached to the HTTP request. To resolve, wait every time until the limit resets, or reduce your resource usage, or upgrade your hosting plan, or move to a dedicated server.
