Hello, thanks for the great info. So how should i proceed? Premium plugins come as a zip file. If you do that, then you will see individual folders packed inside the plugin. The video was excellent! Thank you! First you will need to deactivate the plugin. If you are unable to access the WordPress admin area, then see our guide on how to deactivate plugins when not able to access admin area. After that you will need to install the updated version of the plugin.

I understand a plugin can be 1 file. When I go to plugins in my admin site I dont see the file. The package could not be installed. How do I add my plugins that I develop myself to my site? Hiya, I also cannot see the plug-in menu on my dashboard. How do I fix this? My site has not been hacked or anything. Thank you. If you cannot see the plugins menu, then most probably your site is still redirecting you to the WordPress. It is also possible that your site is still hosted with WordPress.

I installed a plugin manually and activated it. I can not see plugin page, where it is? Hello, I would love some assistance with a plugin please.
I am getting the following message: Unpacking the package… Installing the plugin… Destination folder already exists…. It is created by default at the time of building your website and is one of the most crucial folders of your website.
Every image that you upload, every theme and plugin that you install on your website is stored in this folder more details in the next section. If the folder gets deleted, your website will crash and you will need to rebuild it from scratch. But certain occasions may arise when you need to access it. For instance, we have installed a plugin on our WordPress website. But the plugin caused the site to malfunction as it was not compatible with the version of WordPress we were running.
So we had to go to the wp-content folder to delete the plugin in order to access our site. To access the wp-content folder, you need to access the WordPress root directory. This folder resides on your web server and is made up of WordPress files and sub-folders that all contribute to the functioning and appearance of your website.
Today we will focus on the wp-content folder and learn more about its role on your website. The wp-content folder on a standard WordPress site has three more subfolders — plugins, themes, and uploads.
However, as WordPress sites expand and add more plugins and themes, more folders may be created. On your WordPress website, you have the ability to install plugins.
All the plugins you install on your WordPress site both active and inactive are stored in this folder. Tampering with this folder could cause the plugins to misbehave. Knowing how to access this folder can come in handy if you are unable to install a plugin on your dashboard admin panel. Next, you have to extract the zip file to activate the plugin on your site.
Similarly, you can use the folder to delete or disable a plugin. Sometimes, a plugin might be causing a compatibility issue which causes the website to malfunction. If you are unable to disable the plugin from the dashboard, you can access this folder and disable it manually. We do not recommend using this manual method as making changes directly to this WordPress folder is very risky. A slight misstep can render your site broken.
Use this method only when you have no other choice. Similar to the plugins folder, this one houses all the themes on your site. You can use it the same way you would use the plugins folder. You can also copy themes into this folder to make it available on your dashboard. In the same way, you can also delete themes here. As the name suggests, everything that is uploaded to your site is stored in this folder. By default, these media files are stored in subfolders according to the year and month they were added to the site.
You can think of it as a media library. This is the default setup of a wp-content folder of a WordPress site. However, as WordPress sites expand and develop, you can often find additional folders here. We have briefly entailed them below:. These plugins are critical to the functioning of your WordPress site and are deemed as must use. For example, a plugin may come bundled with a theme.
If you disable the plugin, it could break the theme and therefore, break your website. If such plugins exist on your site, they are stored in this folder. WordPress can be used to create websites in many different languages. This will help a lot during troubleshooting and website backup n restore. Please help me on how can I create a folder inside my blog hoste on wordpress on my site.
I want to create more subfolder under that like news, life etc to make sure my users get the content more organized?

However, please note that this is an advanced tutorial and if something goes wrong your entire website could become inaccessible. But I have a question though. I am a beginner and trying to design a website via wordpress. It is really helpful for me as I am just starting out with my blog and I have very little knowledge about these technical issues. Great content, thanks. We are glad you found it helpful. Great article! I do have a question though: Where do we actually find the articles that we wrote on the site?
Let say I write an article on my site. This article is normally stored in wordpress files. Your article itself will not be stored in files, it will be stored in the database. But i just need my articles and its images.
