The site was reporting many JS/CSS files as 404 (this was with the MMR plugin, but I’m pretty sure that was coincidental). Switching to a twenty* theme with 0 plugins enabled didn’t result in any change, so it seemed like a caching issue. There was a normal install of WP Super Cache, as well as […]
This is a TL;DR of me trying to responsibly struggle against WordPress prompting for FTP credentials. This is my best compromise of security and usability when I want to support some in-browser updates and uploads, while also not sudo ing everything when working on the server.
I had a private Bitbucket repo that was complaining I was over the soft limit of 1GB. I thought I had remembered cleaning up my commit history a long time ago to re-size this repo, but it was still showing in the Bitbucket/<user>/<repo>/admin that it was over 1GB.

Is there another setting you have to flip for this to […]

DNS points newdomain.staging.tld to SG IP address SG cPanel configured with subdomain pointing to specific folder inside staging/ The […]
When you build a web app, not all of the files related to the project or in your git repo need to be publicly accessible. You can clone the repo to the webserver, but then create a symlink to connect your Apache DocRoot (or somewhere else in an existing site’s folder structure) to point to […]
