Most of this website is dedicated to supporting the Stallion Responsive WordPress SEO Package I develop. You’ll find various Stallion Responsive Tutorials and plenty of references to how Stallion works throughout articles within this website even when the articles aren’t specifically about the Stallion SEO package: examples include the general SEO Tutorial Series and the WordPress SEO Tutorial Series. Over the years I’ve offered a lot of free tech support for WordPress users and it can get frustrating when asked the same question that is answered and just a couple of clicks away from the visitor. You will find a simple list of all main articles on this website within the Sitemap, the sitemap is categorized so easy to find […]

SEO Plugin Fatal Error: Cannot Redeclare Function
How to Disable a WordPress Plugin Using FTP
Sorry to hear that, quickest solution is login to your site via FTP (free program like Filezilla) and go to /wp-content/plugins/ and delete the /blog-comments-seo/ folder.
That will deactivate the plugin and solve the problem.
Looks like I missed a repeat function check on the above, will fix it next update.
Could also delete the /blog-comments-seo/ folder (or the blog-comments-seo.php: file in that folder) via some webhost control panels, if you have a file browser that allows deleting folders that would work as well.
Sorry about that, should have had that check in place.

How to Recover a Deleted WordPress Blog
Sorry to hear that, I responded within 39 minutes of you posting the comment, realistically couldn’t have been much faster on support.
The fix would have taken you a few mins, it’s how you fix any problems with a plugin/theme causing that type of error. Log in via FTP or equivalent and delete it’s files, this forces WordPress to run without the plugin/theme (uninstall the plugin or switch to the default theme).
There was nothing wrong with your site, all the images, posts and stuff was safely in the database, just had to disable the plugin or the theme.
I take it you don’t have backups of your site? Check with your host, maybe they make backups you can restore from.
If you started with a new database you might be able to recover most of the site without backups. Did you delete the original database? Deleting the WordPress files doesn’t delete the database, so could be a simple case of modifying your wp-config.php file to gain access to the original site minus it’s images if you deleted the WordPress image folder.
How much traffic you get depends a lot on the niche/content and the backlinks etc… if in a niche with a lot of traffic will be a lot more than one with little traffic. Some sites running Stallion are generating millions of visitors a year without doing anything special: fair amount of content, reasonable traffic niches, reasonable amount of time spent on backlinks (basic SEO sort of stuff).

Theme Colour Scheme changes
Hi,
Is there a way of finding out the codes of the various colours used in a colour scheme?
WordPress Full Page Background Image Landing Page Template
What is the best way to create one of those trendy full page background landing pages? These are useful for sales pages as people love these huge images – like uber or apple.
1) plugins many options here – but I do not like to use plugins when I can do code pretty easy and they can slow your site.
2) code in the editor, but even with the code tag wp autoconverts to text. the code tag is limited here. so background-image I can not get to work.
3) modify the page template by a ‘save as’ and create divs etc with a new css?
4) other
What is the way you would recommend?
Thanks, Been away from WP for 3 years as I was consulting. But getting back into it now.
WordPress Full Page Background Image Landing Page Template
Best steps to deploy new Css in custom page template
I guess my question really is – how would you give a custom page template a totally new look. What is best practice for SEO and speed.
Would you use a new CSS (adding code to header.php) or simply add to the existing CSS?
I read a lot of ways to do this on forums, .. but what would you do if you want a radical change of a page template using css, including a background image. My objective is to create a few landing pages and do A/B tests so I will create a few page templates for this.
Best steps to deploy new Css in custom page template
Working with WordPress Page Templates
I’d create a new WordPress page template using one of the current Stallion Responsive page templates that’s close to what I want and modify it’s PHP/HTML code for anything that’s not changeable via CSS.
Would then work on the CSS with an aim to adding the CSS to the bottom of the mobile.css file if I didn’t intend to release the page template for others to use. The mobile.css file is the last CSS file loaded by Stallion, so any CSS rules loaded at the bottom will override all other Stallion CSS file rules.
As long as you use the same CSS format as used in the other Stallion CSS files you can override almost anything.
You could also use your own CSS code and not use any of the Stallion CSS files.
Most of the Stallion page template files (name format page-****.php) use the header.php (that file loads the Stallion CSS files), footer.php and sidebar.php files by default, the page-sales.php template file doesn’t use the header.php, footer.php or sidebar.php files, instead I copied the contents of those 3 files directly into the page-sales.php file and modified it so it always used the layout-1000.css CSS file (full width) and didn’t load any sidebars.
This means that template file is stand alone, doesn’t use elements the rest of the site uses. If you look at the code you’ll see near the top code related to “/colors/layout-1000.css” which loads the full width CSS. You could do similar and load any custom css file you’ve loaded into the Stallion theme folder, could then make it look like anything you want.
It’s a good file to take a look at for ideas when creating interesting page templates as it will show you how to combine all the template parts into one file so you can change them without modifying the rest of the site: you wouldn’t want to modify the header.php file for just one template file as the changes would impact the entire site.
An extreme version is page-blank.php which loads no CSS files, just loads a posts content and that’s it. Could in theory drop an entire HTML webpage (with inline CSS) into a post and load it with that template and it should work. SEO wise this is removing most of the onpage SEO, so you would have to manually readd it: wouldn’t have a title tag for example if you didn’t add a title tag to the posts HTML code.

Jetpack contact form in template
I was able to create the most beautiful landing page (I amaze myself) with your theme using css and html in one of your templates. Your theme really is flexible!
However, the Jetpack contact form does not work with your theme unless I use ‘blank templete’ for my post. I like to use contact forms more than emails as that is an accepted convention on the web for contact.
If I do not use blank template it does not even send anything to feedback in the dashboard which is how Jetpack contact form works. I am sure it is something easy I am not seeing, like one line of code.
With Jetpack contact forms unless I use ‘blank template” it does not send out emails. Jetpack says some themes conflict. Is there a quick fix for this?
Jetpack contact form in template
No template rather than blank template
Correction if I select the option, “No template” this is what allows Jetpack’s contact for to work, any other choice does not. Any ideas?
