How to Deactivate All Plugins When Not Able to Access WP-Admin

Last Updated on By

How to Deactivate All Plugins When Not Able to Access WP-Admin

While troubleshooting, often several websites will suggest deactivate all the plugins and activate them one by one.

What is the worst part?

At times, you get locked out of your WordPress admin area, then you cannot deactivate a single plugin with this easy way. If you have ever seen a white screen of death, then you can think exactly what I am talking about. In this post, I shall show you how to deactivate all WordPress plugins when you are unable to access wp-admin area.

There are two ways to disable your plugins. One needs you to use phpMyAdmin and the other one needs to use FTP.

Deactivate All Plugins Using FTP

In this way, you will have to use FTP client or file manager of your host.

First of all, you have to connect your site using File Manager in cPanel or FTP client. After connecting, you need to go to /wp-content/ folder.

wp content ftpview

When you open wp-content folder, you will see a folder named plugins. That is the place where WordPress stores all the plugins you installed on your site.

Rename the plugins folder by doing right click. Change the name of the folders of plugin according to your own choice. In my opinion, I call it ‘plugins deactivate’. After doing this, all the plugins of your site will be deactivated.

deactivate plugins

Generally, this method is useful when you are locked out of your admin area in WordPress. If the issue was due to your plugins, then you should go to admin area of WordPress by login to it.

After doing that, go to your /wp-content/ folder and rename ‘plugins deactivate’ back to plugins. Now activate one by one plugin untill your website breaks again. While doing it, you will know exactly which plugin is causing the problem with ease.

Deactivate all plugins using phpMyAdmin

In my opinion, the FTP method is easier one but you can also deactivate all plugins using phpMyAdmin.

First of all, you need to login to the dashboard of your web hosting. in this example, I am showing you a cPanel dashboard. The dashboard of your hosting account may look different.

You need to click on phpMyAdmin icon available under ‘Databases’ section.

cpanel phpmy admin

it will launch phpMyAdmin in a new browser window. You need to choose your WordPress database, if it is not already selected. Now you will be able to see database tables of WordPress.

php my admin db view

As you can see that all tables in the database contain wp- prefix before table name. Your tables may consist of different prefix.

You need to click on wp- options table, there are rows of different options inside wp- options table. Now find the option ‘active plugins’ and then click on ‘Edit’ link text to it.

edit option

On the next screen, you need to change option-value field to a:0:{} and now hit Go button to save the settings.

reset plugins

That is how you have deactivated all WordPress plugins using phpMyAdmin successfully. If it was a plugin which was stopping you from accessing the admin area of WordPress, then you should be able to login now.

I hope that you liked the post and it helped you to deactivate all plugins in WordPress.

How to Fix the WordPress Failed to Open Stream Error

How to Fix the WordPress Failed to Open Stream Error

Are you facing failed to open stream error in WordPress?

If yes, then you are at the right place.

This error generally points out the location of the scripts where the error occurs. However, it is a hard task for newbie users to understand it. in this post, I shall show you how to fix the WordPress failed to open stream error.

Why Failed to Open Stream Error Occurs?

Before I try to fix this error, it is necessary for you to know that what causes failed to open stream error in WordPress.

This error arises when WordPress is not able to load the file mentioned in the code of site. When this error occurs, at times WordPress will show a warning message will continue to load the website. sometimes, it will display a fatal error and will not load anything else.

The phrase of the message can be different because it depends on the location of error and the reason for failure. In addition, it also gives you clues about what do you need to fix.

Typically, this message will appear something like this:

1
2
3
Warning: require(/home/website/wp-includes/load.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/website/wp-settings.php on line 19
Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required ‘/home/website/wp-includes/load.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/php/:/usr/share/php5/’) in /home/website/wp-settings.php on line 19

Here is another example:

1
Last Error: 2018-04-04 14:52:13: (2) HTTP Error: Unable to connect: ‘fopen(compress.zlib://https://www.googleapis.com/analytics/v3/management/accounts/~all/webproperties/~all/profiles?start-index=1): failed to open stream: operation failed’

After the previous discussion, let us take a look how to troubleshoot and fix failed open stream error in WordPress.

Fixing Failed to Open Stream Error in WordPress

As I described earlier, the error can be a result of a number of reasons and the error message will also be different. It depends on the location and cause of the file which is causing the error.

In every example, failed to open stream phrase will be a result of a certain reason. For instance, no such file or directory, permission denied, operation failed and so on.

Now if your error message consists of ‘no such file or directory’, then you need to go through the code to find out which file is mentioned at the specific line.

If it is a theme file or plugin, then it means that the theme files or the plugin were either not installed properly or deleted. Simply deactivate and reinstall the plugin/ theme to fix the error.

However, there is also a chance that WordPress is unable to find the files because of a missing .htaccess file available in the root folder. In this situation, you need to visit Settings>Permalinks page in admin of your WordPress and click on save settings button to regenerate .htaccess file.

fix ht access

If the error message is something like ‘Permission denied’, then it means that WordPress does not have the right permission to access the directory referenced in the code or file.

To resolve this, you need to go through our post on Fix File and Folder permissions in WordPress and correct them if required.

In the end, there are some WordPress plugins that load scripts from third party sources including Facebook APIs, Google Analytics, Google Maps and other APIs.

Some of these APIs may need authentication or may have changed the way of accessing them by developers. A failure or authenticate or incorrect access method will result in WordPress failing to open the needed files.

To resolve this issue, you need to contact the author of the plugin to get support. They will be able to help you and fix the error.

I hope that you liked the post, and you learn how to fix WordPress ‘failed to open stream’ error. You may want to see our post on How to change the WordPress Database prefix to improve security.

How to Change the WordPress Database Prefix to Improve Security

Last Updated on By

How to Change the WordPress Database Prefix to Improve Security

WordPress database seems to be the brain fo your full website. It is because every amount of information is available there and it can become the target of those people who want to get over your system. Spammers run automated codes for SQL injections. Unluckily, there are several website owners who do not change the database prefix while installing WordPress.  It enables the bots to mass attack by targeting the defaul prefix that is, wp-admin. It is a smart move to protect the database of WordPress by changing its prefix which is an easy task while setting up your website. You need to follow few steps to change the WordPress database prefix in a proper way. In this way, you will not mess with your established website.

Preparation

I suggest that you create a backup of your WordPress database before you act on anything I am going to suggest in this post. It is necessary to create a backup of your website on daily basis. BackupBuddy is a highly recommended plugin for this purpose. Next thing I suggest is that you redirect your visitors to a temporary maintenance page.

Change Table Prefix in wp-config.php

Open your wp-config.php file that is available in your WordPress root directory. Change the table prefix line from wp- to something else like wp-greenhat

So the line will look like this:

1
$table_prefix  = 'wp_a123456_';

Note: You can only change it to letters, numbers, and underscores.

Change all Database Tables Name

You have to access your database using phpMyAdmin, then change the table names to one I specified in wp-config.php file. If you have cPanel WordPress hosting, you can find the phpMyAdmin link available in your cPanel. See the image:

phpmyadmin

There are 11 default WordPress tables available in total, therefore, to change them manually is a hard task.

sql

Therefore, in order to make things fast, I have a SQL query that you can use.

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
RENAME table `wp_commentmeta` TO `wp_a123456_commentmeta`;
RENAME table `wp_comments` TO `wp_a123456_comments`;
RENAME table `wp_links` TO `wp_a123456_links`;
RENAME table `wp_options` TO `wp_a123456_options`;
RENAME table `wp_postmeta` TO `wp_a123456_postmeta`;
RENAME table `wp_posts` TO `wp_a123456_posts`;
RENAME table `wp_terms` TO `wp_a123456_terms`;
RENAME table `wp_termmeta` TO `wp_a123456_termmeta`;
RENAME table `wp_term_relationships` TO `wp_a123456_term_relationships`;
RENAME table `wp_term_taxonomy` TO `wp_a123456_term_taxonomy`;
RENAME table `wp_usermeta` TO `wp_a123456_usermeta`;
RENAME table `wp_users` TO `wp_a123456_users`;

You may have to add lines for other plugins because they may use their own tables in the database of WordPress. The idea is that you change all tables prefix to your desired one.

The Options Table

I have to search the options table for any other fields that is using wp- as a prefix, so we can change them. To make the process easy use this query:

1
SELECT * FROM `wp_a123456_options` WHERE `option_name` LIKE '%wp_%'

It will return a plenty of results, you need to go one by one to change these lines.

UserMeta Table

Next, the need is to search the user meta for all fields that are using wp- as a prefix, so you can change it. Use this SQL query to perform this:

1
SELECT * FROM `wp_a123456_usermeta` WHERE `meta_key` LIKE '%wp_%'

The number of entries may differ depends on how many plugins you are using. Simply change everything that has wp- to the new prefix.

Backup and Done

So you are up to test the website. If you have followed the above steps explained by me, it should be working fine. After doing so, you need to create a new backup of your website to stay on safe side.

How to Completely Remove Comments From Your WordPress Site

Last Updated on By

Do you want to remove comments from your WordPress website completely?

If yes, this post is for you.

If you only use static pages on your site or do not want people to comment on your posts then you can disable all the comments in WordPress with ease. In this post, I shall show you how to entirely remove comments from your WordPress site.

Why Remove Comments in WordPress?

Most of the WordPress users are small business owners who do not usually add a blog section on their site. Their site contains static pages only that makes the comment useless.

While you can disable comments on your WordPress pages with ease but it does not mean that it will remove the comments completely from your WordPress site.

There are some bloggers who do not want to use comments at all. According to their opinion, comments are a distraction and their blogs can do without getting comments.

Now the issue is that most WordPress themes give built-in support for comments. It means that even if you have turned off the comments manually, they still pop up to and fro.

Want to get rid of comments with a single click?

Let’s go for how to completely remove WordPress comments from your site without leaving any traces.

Disabling Comments in WordPress

First of all, you need to install and activate the Disable Comments plugin. For more details, go through our step by step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.

After activation, you need to visit Settings>Disable Comments page to configure the settings of plugin.

disablecomments

The settings page has two sections.

You can get rid of comments everywhere on your WordPress site or you can selectively disable them on pages, posts or any custom post types.

Choose the first option to disable WordPress comments on your website completely.

Do not forget to click on the save changes button to save your settings.

Diable comments plugin will now disable comments on your site completely. Now go to any post or page of your site to see this plugin in action.

commentsremoved

Since comments will not be shown, there is no need to delete the existing comments.

This plugin will also remove the comments menu item and all mentions of comments from the admin area of your WordPress site.

commentdisabled

Removing ‘Comments Are Closed’ and Existing Comments in WordPress

Disable comments plugin will stop showing existing comments, remove comment form and remove messages like ‘comments are closed’ from old posts.

However, if your WordPress theme is not checking the status of comment, then it may show existing comments, the comment form or comments are closed message.

You can ask the developer of your theme to fix this because it is not a standard compliant approach.

Alternatively, you can also try to fix it yourself by following the instructions below:

First of all, you need to connect to your site using FTP client or File manager in cPanel. Now navigate to your current theme folder which will be available in /wp-content/themes/folder.

In the theme folder, you have to find the file comments.php and rename it to comments_old.php.

renamecommentstemplate

Next, you will have to right click and choose ‘create new file’ option in your FTP client.

newcommentstemplate

Name your new file comments.php and click the OK button.

This trick will serve an empty comments template for your WordPress theme so no comment related messages or comments will be displayed.

If your WordPress theme does not support comments.php file or does not have it. Then you need to ask the developer of your theme which file you need to edit.

That is it. I hope that post will help you to learn how to completely remove comments from your WordPress site.

How to Properly Change Your WordPress Username (Step by Step)

Last Updated on By

Do you want to change your WordPress username for security reasons?

Have you ever tried to change it?

Do you want to change it?

If you want to change it, you are at the right place. This post is for you. In this post, I shall show you three different methods to change your WordPress username.

Method 1: Create a New User and Delete The Old One

Creating a new user with your desired username with the administrator is the easiest way to change your WordPress username. You have to use a different email address than the one used by the old account. Now logout from the existing username and login with the new user account which you created. Go to Users section and click on Delete link under the old username.

delete user wp

When you will do it, WordPress will ask what you want to do with their data or content. You need to make sure that you click on “Attribute all content to:” option and select the new user/username that you just created. Now click on “Confirm deletion” button to delete the old user account.

That’s it. You have changed your WordPress username with ease. Now if you want to change the email address of your new user, you can now use the old email address which was associated with the old account.

Method 2: Change Username by Using a Plugin

Using a plugin to change your WordPress username is another simple way to do this task. If you do not want to keep the plugins or want to install it. Then you can safely delete this plugin after changing your WordPress username.

First of all, you need to install and activate the Username Changer plugin.

After activation, go to Users>Username Changer page.

wp username changer

Now select the username which you want to change and enter the new username. When you are done then click on the save changes button.

Method 3: Change Your WordPress Username Using phpMyAdmin

The third method is a little bit complicated because it needs to make direct changes to your WordPress database. I usually do not suggest users to make changes directly to their database of WordPress. However, at times, you may not have another option. For example, if you have forgotten your WordPress username and email address, you will not get access to the admin dashboard to change the existing username.

By using this method, you will be able to find the username and will also be able to change it.

I have forgotten my WordPress username and password what should I do or how to recover it?

So this method will help you if you have forgotten your WordPress username.

First of all, you need to login to your cPanel. Scroll down to the databases section and click on phpMyAdmin.

php my admin

Now you have to select the database that your blog is hosted in.

php my admin select db

You will see your database tables of WordPress. WordPress database tables use wp_as prefix before each table’s name by default. It is also possible that you may have been using any other prefix.

Now click on the table wp_users on the left hand side. Now click on edit the username which you want to edit.

edit user name

Change the user_login value according to your wish. For example, you can replace “admin” to “user” or “bob”

change user login

Press the Go button and you have completed it.

How to Change the Font Size in WordPress

Last Updated on By

Do you want to change the font size in WordPress posts and pages?

If yes, you are at the right place. There are a few ways to decrease or increase font size and text formatting in WordPress. In this post, I shall show you how to change the font size in WordPress with ease.

Method 1: Using the Paragraph Headings

Most of the people want to show bigger font size in WordPress to attract the readers, especially for heading elements. You need to use different font size when you write a post and you can use heading size.

Using visual editor mode, you can see all the available items under the tab known as Paragraph as displayed in the screenshot below:

paragraph visual editor

These sizes are controlled by the stylesheet file (style.css) of the theme to make sure that font size is logical with everything. In most of the cases, the heading sizes can do the job.

If you use heading in your posts, it gives a good user experience. In the meanwhile, it also makes the WordPress posts SEO friendly.

Method 2: TinyMCE Advanced Plugin

For this method, I shall use a WordPress plugin to get a better control on overall font sizes and text formatting while writing content.

First of all, you need to install and activate the TinyMCE advanced plugin. For more details, see my step by step guide on how to install a WordPress plugin.

After activation, go to Settings>TinyMCE Advanced to configure the editor settings.

You will see TinyMCE editor toolbar with buttons on this page.

In addition, you will also see unused buttons below.

Font Size Button Tinymce wp

Now you have to drag and drop the font size button from the unused buttons to any row in the toolbar. After doing so, click the save changes button.

If you want to see the button whether it is functional or not. You need to create a new post or edit an existing one and you will observe that default WordPress visual editor is changed by the TinyMCE advanced editor with font size button.

tinymce font size

As you can observe in the above screenshot that you can choose any font size you like from the drop down. It provides you more freedom over things because now you can choose the smaller font size than the normal body font like 8pt or 10pt.

There is a downside to this method that is, if you ever change your theme, you will have to account for all the font size changes that you made in any post.

Method 3: Change Overall Font Size of Paragraphs Using CSS

If you do not like the font size of your them and want to change it for paragraphs. You need to do it using CSS.

So you have to add the following custom CSS to your WordPress theme.

1
2
3
p {
font-size:16px;
}

Note: This change will be effective on all paragraphs in your WordPress theme and you will lose your change when you will switch your theme.

I hope that you have liked this post.
