iFastnet
Unless otherwise arranged, iFastnet is your web hoster. They house your domain name, WordPress installation, and domain email addresses to name a few. To login to your account, go to iFastnet Login and use the login credentials from the separate spreadsheet.
Once you are logged in, you can manage the various areas of your hosting account like account details, services, domains, support tickets, and invoices.
cPanel
Your hosting plan is managed via the de facto standard cPanel management platform. In order to get into cPanel, you click on the services button on the home screen. On the next screen, you click on the service name which is usually "Super Premium (Monthly)". Finally, click on "Login into cPanel" under "Actions" on the left-hand side. This opens a new tab for cPanel.
There is usually no need for you to go there regularly as most menu entries require some technical knowhow. Here are the most important cPanel entries in the order they appear on the menu:

We created the email address info@yourdomain.com for you. Here you can add more real email addresses as you see fit.

We created a forwarder from info@yourdomain.com to one or more of your existing email addresses. Here you can add or modify more forwarders.

This menu entry checks if everything is configured correctly to ensure your emails are deliverable.

The file manager for your hosting account.

The graphical MySQL database administrator.

The manager for your associated domain names.

The Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificate manager.

(See the full description directly at Google Support.)

If you haven't done so already, follow the instructions on how to add the Google Master Account to your device.

Manage the Facebook Business Page
We created a Facebook business Page for you unless you already owned one. Customers can like or follow a Page to get updates from you. Anyone with a Facebook account can help manage one, as long as they have a role on the Page. We usually add all Facebook accounts you gave us with the manager role to the Page.
All managers will receive notifications and emails when customers like or follow the Page. Customers can also send messages or leave reviews. It is important to stay on top of these customer-interactions since they are often time-sensitive.
When managers interact with the Page, they can choose to do this as the Page owner or through their personal profile; the standard is Page owner. You want to update the Facebook Page frequently in order to keep the followers engaged. Any change to the Page is automatically pushed out to the followers.
Your Facebook Business and Instagram pages are linked. This allows cross-posting from Facebook to Instagram automatically. Here are a few links that describe how to cross-post:
- Meta: Crossposting from Instagram to Facebook
- Guiding Tech: How to Post from Facebook to Instagram at the Same Time
- Influencer Marketing Hub: How to Cross-Post to Instagram From a Facebook Page
OpenWeatherMap
OpenWeatherMap gives you free access to current weather data for any location on Earth, including over 200,000 cities. The data is frequently updated based on the global and local weather models, satellites, radars, and a vast network of weather stations.
We opened an account with OpenWeatherMap on your behalf and created an API key. It allows 1,000 API calls per day, enough for 20 different weather maps throughout your webpage. The credentials are on your spreadsheet.
For some businesses, it makes sense to show the current weather condition or even a forecast on the webpage. We will turn off this feature should it not benefit your line of business.
Login to User Account
Go to https://yourdomain.com/wp-login.php ; replace "yourdomain" with your proper domain name. Then login with the username "author" and the password from your spreadsheet. The admin account should only be used for website maintenance.

Note: Make sure to use a strong password since this login screen is exposed on the internet.
Securely Share Login Details
If you want us to log into your site to assist with an issue then emailing the password is not the safest practice. There are better ways to do it.
- Never send a password by email.
- Never send us your own login details. Create a new temporary account instead.
- Always delete the temporary account when we’re done helping you.
- Make a full website backup before we work on it.
Add temporary WordPress admin access
WordPress provides a way for you to give us admin access without emailing a password.
- Go to Users > Add New in the WordPress dashboard to create a temporary account for us.
- Use ujsoftware for Username.
- Use info@ujsoftware.com for Email.
- Use UJ Software for First Name.
- Leave Send User Notification checked.
- Choose Administrator for Role.
- Check 2FA Grace Period (if this field is on your form)
- Click Add New User then tell us you’ve made an account for us (don’t send the password).
- Make a reminder to delete this account when we’re done helping you.

WordPress will email us a link that we can click to choose a new password. This way the password itself is never sent via email. The link will expire and we will not store the password. Instead, we’ll log in and choose “Remember Me”. You’ll then delete the account when we’re done.

Theme Customization
The video shows all available theme customizations without going into any detail. Most of the settings will be done by us when we create your website.
Change Cover Image
Follow these steps to change the cover image:
- From the WordPress Menu
- Media -> Add New
- Drag and Drop the new image
- Wait until you can see the thumbnail of the image
- Appearance -> Customize
- Header Banner
- Button "Add new image"
- Choose the image from the media library
- Follow screens to Crop and Save
- Button "Publish"
Note: WordPress always leaves the original uploaded image file and only works with copies. Everything can be undone if necessary.

Contact Form 7
The Contact Form 7 plugin is the defacto standard for contact forms under WordPress. We install the below contact form either on the homepage or if your webpage has one, on the contact page. The name, email, and subject fields are mandatory, the message is optional. The form is protected by an invisible Google ReCaptcha.

The Submit button triggers an email to the info@yourdomain.com address with the contents of the form in the email body and informs the user that the message has been sent.
The plugin Flamingo, from the same developer as Contact Form 7, saves all messages through contact forms into the database. Otherwise, you may lose important messages forever if your mail server has issues or you make a mistake in mail configuration. It keeps an email address book and a list of all messages with detailed information which you can look up in WordPress anytime.
MailPoet 3 Premium
The MailPoet 3 Premium plugin is the most popular email and newsletter solution for WordPress. With a free account, which we signed up for on your behalf, you can send 5,000 emails per month to up to 1,000 subscribers through MailPoet Sending Service for free. Their high-availability service sends +30 million emails each month with a 98.5% deliverability rate. We authenticated info@yourdomain.com as the sending address with MailPoet and configured the sender domain authentication to ensure email deliverability.
The sign-up form is at the bottom of each page above the footer:

When the user subscribes with a valid email address, the box informs about the confirmation email:

The sign-up confirmation often called "double opt-in", ensures your subscribers willingly joined your email list. All new subscribers will first receive a “confirmation email” from the MailPoet plugin. Inside this email, there is a link that must be clicked in order to activate the subscription to the newsletter. If they don’t click the link and confirm their subscription, they will remain “Unconfirmed” and will not receive any newsletters. The sign-up confirmation option is enforced when sending emails with MailPoet Sending Service, and there’s no option to disable it. See the checklist before importing an old email address list into Mailpoet.
When the user clicks on the "I confirm my subscription!" link from the confirmation email, he is directed to this webpage:

Change Opening Hours and Add Exceptions
The video shows how to enter the hours for a business that's open Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm. Then we add an exception for a day where the business opens at noon. Finally, we add Independence Day as a closure day.
Layout sample
Standard layout for opening hours
| Monday: | 09:00 – 17:00 |
|---|---|
| Tuesday: | 09:00 – 17:00 |
| Wednesday: | 09:00 – 17:00 |
| Thursday: | 09:00 – 17:00 |
| Friday: | 09:00 – 17:00 |
| Saturday: | Closed |
| Sunday: | Closed |
Theme Settings
We usually set the below defaults already when we create the website. But you can always modify the settings to use different images and keep the website fresh.

Go to General Theme Settings

Select the Post Types that will be used on this website. Turning off unused types helps declutter the screen.

Select the standard background color for alerts. The fallback is Danger. Follow the link to see the different colors as defined in your theme.

Define the number of days from today that will show as Special Rate on the booking calendar. A value of 0 turns this feature off.
Set the colors for the bookings calendar.

There are no options for the Contacts.

Set the default thumbnail image that precedes every Event on the website. Leave empty if you don't prefer any images on the Events.

Set the default thumbnail image that precedes every FAQ on the website. Leave empty if you don't prefer any images on the FAQs.

Set the default thumbnail image that precedes every Fundraiser on the website. Leave empty if you don't prefer any images on the Fundraisers.

Set the default thumbnail image that precedes every News on the website. Leave empty if you don't prefer any images on the News.

Set the default thumbnail images for female and male avatars that show next to the testimonial. Note: Leaving them empty will make the testimonials without their own image look odd.
Alerts
Alerts are one-line messages that show prominently at the beginning of the homepage. They can be used to notify visitors about important changes or ongoing specials. For example, temporary business hour variations or special rates are good fits.
Add alerts
The video shows how to enter a couple of dummy alerts and how to sort them in the post listing. The first entry is a straight alert using the standard background color. The second one sets a different background color. The title itself does not show anywhere, only the text field will be displayed. The order field helps sort the posts. You can leave it at the standard of 10 if you are not concerned about the order.
Expire Alerts
Alerts are usually only needed for a short period. A temporary business hour change doesn't have to be displayed anymore once the hours are back to normal. By setting an expiration date at the alert, it will automatically disappear when the defined day/time arrives.
Layout samples
Standard layout for alerts on homepage
Bookings
Enter Bookings
The video shows how to enter and quick-edit bookings. The first booking is for one day, while the second booking spans a full workweek. The list of bookings can then sort by the start date to see them in chronological order. The bookings expire in draft status the following month after the end date since they do not show anymore on the calendar. The quick-edit menu allows changing the status of the booking without having to open the full editor.
Layout samples
The custom posts for bookings can be displayed in several layouts.

Contacts
Upload and Crop Images
The video demonstrates how to upload images and crop square thumbnails for the contact image. The image must be square and at least 150 by 150 pixels, or the circular cutout will look elliptical.
Enter Contacts
The video shows how to enter a new contact with the custom posts. All fields, except for the name, are optional. The category "Contacts" and a menu order gets assigned to display these contacts in a predetermined order.
Layout samples
The custom contacts posts can be displayed in several layouts. Below are four sample layouts: Card, vertical card, round image, and raised image.

Events
The event posts can be used to create calendar events with a detailed description. The title is the event name. Each event has a mandatory start date field and an optional end date for longer events. The detailed text field allows shortcodes but no further formatting other than linebreaks. Each post can display a different thumbnail image to visually highlight the type of event. If none is provided, it will use the image from the general settings. A second, larger image can be shown to the right of the detailed description. In the final layout, all entries are ordered by the start date.
Add an event
The video shows how to enter a few dummy events. The first entry doesn't set any images. The second one picks a different thumbnail image. The third FAQ picks a different thumbnail image as well as the additional image for the text area. Finally, you see the list of entered events. Sorting by the start date column rearranges the posts in the order they will later show up.
Layout samples
The custom events posts can be displayed in several layouts. Below are four sample layouts: Slider, accordion, unordered list, and flat.

Generic Posts
The generic posts are very similar. Their title is either the headline (news and fundraiser) or the questions (FAQ). All have a text field for their detail or answer. The text field allows shortcodes but no further formatting other than linebreaks. Each post can have its thumbnail image. If none is provided, it will use the image from the general settings. The order field helps sort the posts. You can leave it at the standard of 10 if you are not concerned about the order.
Add a generic post
The video shows how to enter a few dummy FAQs and how to sort them in the post listing. The first entry is a straight text FAQ. The second one shows how to set a different image and use a link in the text. The third FAQ is saved as a draft and will not show up until its published. The fourth example defines an expiration date for the post that sets it to draft status on the expiration day/time. Finally, you see the list of entered posts. Sorting by the order column rearranges the posts in the order they will later show up.

Testimonials
Upload and Crop Images
The video demonstrates how to upload images and crop square thumbnails for the tutorial image. The image must be square and at least 150 by 150 pixels, or the circular cutout will look elliptical.
Enter Testimonials
The video shows how to enter testimonials with the custom posts. The first two testimonials use the images we prepared in the previous step. The third testimonial will use a generic image. For that, we don't select an image but enter the gender instead. You also need to select the correct category if you have different testimonial posts on your webpage; this is not shown in the below video.
Layout samples
The custom posts for testimonials can be displayed in several layouts.

Displaying Custom Post Types
We use the Display Posts plugin to query and display our custom post types in WordPress. The plugin selects the posts by any combination of type, status, category, tag, meta key, or search query and sorts them by date, title, menu order, or meta value - to name just the most important ones. Open, close, and output filters allow full control over the output.
This shortcode displays all FAQs with the category 'general' ordered by the menu order in an accordion. The message "No FAQs at this time" is shown in case the selection has no results.
[display-posts post_type="faq" category="general" no_posts_message="No FAQs at this time" wrapper="accordion"]General Display Posts Query and Display Parameters
The following parameters are common for all custom post types. In general, all parameters listed in the display-posts documentation can be used but our custom post types extend or override some of them. Only those differences are listed here.
post_type
Specify which post type to use. You can use a default one (post or page), or a custom post type you’ve created.
Default: post
Options include: alert, booking, contact, event, faq, fundraiser, news, testimonial
Example: [display-posts post_type="event"]
wrapper_id
Specify a unique ID to be used on the wrapper of this listing.
Default: empty
Note: The wrapper_id is ignored on accordion and carousel wrappers because the plugin must generate its own ID.
Example: [display-posts category="cars" wrapper_id="cars-listing"]
posts_per_page
How many posts to display.
Default: -1 (list all posts)
Example: [display-posts posts_per_page="5"]
order
Specify whether posts are ordered in descending order (DESC) or ascending order (ASC).
Default: ASC
Example: [display-posts order="DESC"]
orderby
Specify what the posts are ordered by.
Default: menu_order
Options include: date, modified, rand, comment_count, menu_order, ID, author, title, name, type, meta_value, meta_value_num, post__in
Example: [display-posts orderby="date"]
listing_class
Specify the class name used for each post.
Default: listing-item
Example: [display-posts include_content="true" listing_class="dps-listing-item"]
layout
Custom parameter to specify which template part layout should be used. See the template parts tutorial.
Default: empty
Example: [display-posts layout="dps-listing-item"]
interval
The amount of time to delay between automatically cycling to the next item for a carousel in milliseconds. If 0, the carousel will not automatically cycle.
Default: 5000
Example: [display-posts wrapper="carousel" interval="3000"]
arrow_color_class
Specify the class name used for the arrows and dots at a carousel. You can use "dark" or "light" depending on the background color.
Default: dark
Example: [display-posts arrow_color_class="light"]
left_arrow
Show the left arrow at a carousel.
Default: true
Example: [display-posts left_arrow="false"]
right_arrow
Show the right arrow at a carousel.
Default: true
Example: [display-posts right_arrow="false"]
carousel_width
The width of the carousel content in percent. The left and right arrows each use 15% and will be on top of the content if the percentage is greater than approximately 85%.
Default: 70
Example: [display-posts right_arrow="false" left_arrow="false" carousel_width="100"]
carousel_dots
Show the indicator dots below the slider.
Default: true
Example: [display-posts carousel_dots="false" right_arrow="false" left_arrow="false" carousel_width="100"]
transient_key
This should be a unique key you define to cache the output. Each key will be cached separately, so if you are using the same shortcode on multiple pages you can use the same key for each one (cache it once rather than separately). Internally, the name of the key is expanded with the word "dps", the post type, and a checksum of the parameters. Whenever a new post is created or an existing one is modified, all caches for this post type are deleted to ensure accurate data.
Default: none
