15 WordPress User Errors That Can Make You Look Silly

There are so many WordPress mistakes that users make unknowingly sometimes out of omission. You begin to wonder, what did I do wrongly or what step did I omitted or did I place a code wrongly? Endless questions asked before you figured out the exact place the mistake came from.

Let me share an encounter I had. I got a code sometimes ago that I needed to insert into the functions.php file that would make shortcode content show-up on the sidebar. I’ve placed the code at the position I was suppose to put it, but forgot to include the sign ‘}’ after the code. And I’d clicked ‘Update file’. Before I could say Jack Robinson, the site went down.
