Mayfrank:
Please how do I create and use a homepage like that of jumia (with different countries) on my WordPress blog.

when you go to Jumia.com and click "Egypt" for example; it redirects you to a jumia website www.jumia.com.eg created especially for Egypt, and serves you its content.

If you place an order from the domain, the currency is Egyptian currency, and you are allowed to supply a physical address based in Egypt to which your product will be delivered.

There are several ways the above could be achieved:
1) create and serve custom content by country - as per users selection, or automatically by source-IP location,
2) serve the same content all through but with the domain masked by another

For your blog, there are several plugins that can help you serve content based on location:
1) Custom Content by country: https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-content-by-country/
2) WP GeoIP Country Redirect: http://codecanyon.net/item/wp-geoip-country-redirect/3589163
3) Country Filter Wordpress: http://www.codediesel.com/plugins/country-filter/
4) Wordpress GeoTargetting Plugin: http://thewordpress.net/plugins/geotargeting/

You'll need to check them out to find the best for your interest.

Basically the plugin should allow you to create a filter

Your theme is nice but you dont know how to use it.

1) what happened to required images inside posts to be used as thumbnails on the front page?

2) where is your favicon?

3) is this really the title of your post? or?
JamB CBT 2016/2017 Runs/Answers/Questions/expo/Runs/chokes/site click here

4) themeforest-template advert on the header (upper right)? really

5) populate the site with at least 50-articles properly categorized and then ask for another review

Boss mi @HK.. i'm interested in the ''sub-categorizing aspect'' ...share more light please

Boss mi @HK.. i'm interested in the ''sub-categorizing aspect'' ...share more light please

I said previously:

- if you would be dwelling on just 'parenting' and 'self-development' as big picture, why not break each down into sub-categories and recategorize your articles.

ex:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Parenting
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Personal_development

Hi

Yes - create the banner and put it in the widget position.
- the assumption is the banner size must be the same size as the widget area. You banners may be wide(horizontal) or long(vertical) depending on your widget area.

It has been a thrilling experience since 25th May, 2015 which marked my first post here, an attempt to share my wordpress skills and know-how with others by offering to help with website issues.

I have since offered reviews, gave suggestions on possible solutions to wordpress website problems, was contacted privately(email, whatsapp / pm) for help, all which I offered to the satisfaction of those who contacted me. I helped re-touch old sites and setup new ones.

I also offered some help(NL and private) to those in the Joomla thread.

I want to say Thanks to all of you for the trust. The opportunity to help you has added to my 'guruness'.

Wishing you a happy new 2016 and more grease to your web sites.

Hostkobo, can you help set up a new Wordpress blog paid domain?

Please check mine everybody [url]robminds.com[/url] and feel free to criticise or commend as the case maybe.
Meanwhile, i need to modify font colours for my primary menu items mostly.
Also is this site ready for Google Adsense approval? All images and content are mine.
My theme is TheNews by flexithemes.
thanks

1) domain name: Is your domain name a spelling mistake?
I am assuming it should mean something like when 2 people rub minds together? shouldn't it be www.rubminds.com?....which would go well with your slogan "share the news"?

Robminds.com sounds a little bit violent, considering 'rob' means to 'steal' - just my own thots sha.

except if your name is 'rob'.

2) top-menu "home, contact us...." requires a nice menu background

3) background picture is totally out of place. Find and use something fit for a "news environment"; else leave it out and use a solid color or gradient. Or, rather than tile the picture, just use a single large picture.

4) when you use a premium theme, try and make the site look either exactly like the demo or more beautiful. To do something less is a disservice to yourself.

5) Front page blog layout: remove duplicate post title under the featured image. By leaving it there, you give viewers the responsibility to click it, and since it isnt a link, its a no-brainer. Its larger (fontsize) than the post title, so the probability to click it first is there.

thanks a lot , let me get back on this points asap.

Nafizzey: great thread, pleas I find it difficult accessing and posting on my newly opened WordPress blog using simple server but other site work fine.. can anyone tell me how to resolve this pls?

accessing your site is possible... but publishing using simple server will give cookies error cos simple server has to do with tweaking IP which wordpress doesn't support. u have to use official network plan

hostkobo how can know the perfect dimension for its theme feature image

kombo:
Hi people, feel free to share all challenges encountered on your wordpress website/blog.. I promise to respond to all as soon as I can.

Remember: Wordpress only.

NB: I no sabi everyting finish o... but I have over 3 years experience tweaking and fixing wordpress websites/blogs

Do have any idea. I cannot login my dashboard on pc or other browsers apart from ucweb, it keep showing me enable cookies

Hi HK,
Having gone tru ur recommendations and done something about them, kindly see my response as follows:
1. domain name -is actually fine for me. cos the Rob means a name of someone close to the family that we respect so much and not really a word.
2. Top-menu background- take a look at it right now, how do you see it?
3.Bg pix- removed - pls take a look and leave a comment.
4. making site more beautiful. Isnt the site okay at it is rite now? And by the way, how can i change the theme without loosing my settings and articles? pls i need info.
5. Duplicate post titles on Front page post.- Done .
I sincerely appreciate your inputs and will expect more if any from both you and others who may see one thing or the other to point out there.
God bless you.
