Latest update: How To Allow Multiple Concurrent Remote Desktop Sessions in Windows 10

By default, multiple concurrent remote desktop sessions are not allowed on any of Windows desktop systems, including Windows 10. Here is what you will get when you are trying to log in 2 or more accounts simultaneously on a Windows 10 computer.

Another user is signed in. If you continue, they will be disconnected. Do you want to continue?

If you click Yes, the current session will be disconnected to make the room for your connection. It doesn’t log off but rather switches to the account you logged in.

Just like on Windows 7, and 8, there are ways to work around it. And here is one of them.

To setup Remote Desktop on Windows 10.

HOW TO SETUP & DESIGN BULK SMS PORTAL USING JOOMLA CMS

1. Introduction to Bulk SMS Service

Bulk SMS Business is a profitable business in Nigeria and even all over the world today. Millions of SMS are sent daily among the GSM subscribers all over Nigeria. This is due to its cheapest and faster means of communication. GSM SMS within a network and among different networks range from N 5 to N15. This is still somehow exorbitant. But with bulk SMS from web to phone, you can send a message with as low as N1.00. You can get cheap prices range from N1.00 to N5.00. You send the message from the web to any GSM phone number. At a click, you can send message to millions of GSM phone numbers.



2. Things you need to setup bulk portal

a) Domain and web hosting

b) SMS Component and License

c) Joomla Installation and Upload of SMS Component

d) Add Beautiful Simple Template

e) Add API From SMS Service Provider

f) Online Payment Integration

g) Bank Account

h) Contact Details

i) Other Services



A. Domain and Web Hosting

You need to make sure your chosen domain name is still available and you need to register it.

A well know place for registering domain names is godaddy.com but don' t register your domain there just yet. As you will find out, there is still way to register your domain when signing up for web hosting. Next is to register a web hosting, philmorehost.com is one of the best leading web hosting company in Nigeria, they have cheap and reliable web hosting service.

B. SMS Component and License

!!! Purchase it from www.smsportalcreator.com to get regular update and proper support !!!

SMS Component is a professional SMS component for Joomla. It is a native extension which can be installed using regular Joomla Installation procedure. This component allows you to configure any SMS HTTP API inside Joomla and you can start sending and receiving SMS from the front-end.

This component uses the SMS HTTP API and submits the SMS to the gateway and receives the gateway response. For receiving SMS it uses the short/long code with KEYWORDS.

The best attractive part of this component is it can be used as a reseller account for your master SMS package bought from any SMS gateway.

C. Joomla Installation and Upload of SMS Component

In this tutorial we will show you how to use Softaculous to install a Joomla 2.5 application to your site. The installation process is pretty straightforward and it will take only a few minutes. You don't need any advanced skills to perform it and at the end you will have a fully functional Joomla application on your hosting account.

First , you need to access your cPanel account and find the Softaculous icon under the "Software Services" section. It should be located in the lower part of your cPanel page, right under the "Domains" section.

Dedicated server, or managed hosting service is a type of Internet web hosting in which the client leases an entire server not shared with anyone else. This is more flexible than shared hosting, as organizations have full control over the server(s), including choice of operating system, hardware, etc.



Virtual Private Server, This is also another level of dedicated or managed hosting commonly referred to as VPS hosting. A virtual private server (VPS) is a virtual machine sold as a service by an Internet hosting service. A VPS runs its own copy of an operating system, and customers have superuser-level access to that operating system instance, so they can install almost any software that runs on that OS.

The provider steps in to take over most of the management, including security, memory, storage and IT support. The service is primarily proactive in hosting nature.



A shared web hosting service or virtual hosting service or derive host refers to a web hosting service where many websites reside on one web server connected to the Internet. Each site "sits" on its own partition, or section/place on the server, to keep it separate from other sites. This is generally the most economical option for hosting, as many people share the overall cost of server maintenance.


For basic website or those that are not hugely visited, yet, shared hosting is a good choice; VPS is a good choice for most projects; Dedicated servers are needed for the largest projects with highest resource consumption.

Intro

The migration from Joomla 2.5 to 3.x is considered a mini-migration. This is because the Joomla core extensions will upgrade with a “one-click” upgrade via the Joomla! Update component in the backend administrator side of Joomla. Many third-party extensions are a one-click upgrade too. Some are not. You need to look at each one and determine what path the extension needs to follow to get from 2.5 to 3.x. If you haven't already, you might be interested in reading the Self Assessment and Planning for 2.5 to 3.x Migration prior to following the steps below.

Joomla Core Extensions:

Categories
Articles
Menus
Modules (core modules - not third-party)
Banners
Contacts
Messaging
Newsfeeds
Redirect
Search
Smart Search
Weblinks
For very large or complex 2.5 to 3.x migrations

Simple Troubleshooting Steps for the WordPress White Screen of Death

Something is wrong with your site, and more than likely you possess the power to identify and possibly even fix it. You just need to ask yourself these questions and follow these steps.

Question #1: Are You A Synthesis Customer?

If so, I have some great news for you.

Troubleshooting step: Log into your Customer Portal and view recent errors.

Synthesis provides you with an easily accessible log of recent errors that your site has experienced. This often allows you to immediately diagnose the source of your white screen issue.

Here are the detailed steps for accessing the log errors:

Log in to your Customer Portal.
If you have multiple sites, click into whichever one is white screening.
Underneath all of your FTP, PHPMyAdmin, and other info, you’ll see a row for “Server Info” with a blue link that says “View.” Click it.
A screen will pop up showing any recent errors thrown by your site.
The log error(s), if you have any, may look like hieroglyphics to you. That’s okay. If so, just read through the errors and see if you see a URL that ends in or contains the following:

functions.php
“plugins” – the URL will point to a specific plugin path, which may be the one causing the issue.
“themes” – the URL will point to a specific path within the theme, possibly the file causing the issue.
If it’s a functions.php issue and you recently edited your functions.php file, revert back to the pre-edit or default state.

If it’s a plugin issue, and you see one plugin path coming up over and over again in the logs, deactivate the offending plugin. This will get your site back up and running. If you can’t narrow it down to one plugin, or you need help deactivating a plugin when you can’t access your site, scroll down to “Is It a Plugin Issue?”

If you see theme paths in the log errors, scroll down to “Is It a Theme Issue?”

Question #2: Did you recently install, update, or otherwise touch a plugin?

The vast majority of White Screen of Death cases that I’ve seen come into our help desk end up being plugin related. If you were working with a specific plugin right before the White Screen of Death appeared, it is likely that isolating the issue will be easy for you.

Troubleshooting step: Deactivate the plugin you were just working with.

Simple right? If that plugin was indeed the issue, then your site should come right back up. Whew. At that point, you can then figure out what the issue with the plugin might be:

If you were editing the plugin, revert to the original code.
If you updated the plugin and it caused an issue, contact the plugin developer.
If you were installing the plugin for the first time, check to see if it is compatible with your version of WordPress (which is hopefully the most current one).
Question #3: Were you recently working with your active theme’s functions.php file?

The other usual suspect when it comes to White Screen of Death cases is edits to the functions.php file.

Troubleshooting step: Revert to the pre-edit (or original) functions.php file.

Your site will come back up if this was the issue.

On a related note, here is a word to the wise regarding editing your functions.php file … or any WordPress file for that matter: make code changes in a text editor as opposed to the WordPress dashboard!

With a text editor, you have the option of clicking Edit – Undo to quickly remove changes one by one. When the White Screen of Death is costing you page views, troubleshooting speed is of the essence. You cannot Edit – Undo in the WordPress dashboard, so not only is there no quick way to revert change by change, but if you make extensive changes and cannot remember them all you’ll just have to revert to the original and start from scratch.

Question #4: Did you answer “No” to questions 1, 2, and 3?

So maybe you weren't just working with a specific plugin or your theme’s functions.php file, but the White Screen of Death took hold of your site anyway. This happens. Even if you don’t have an immediate guess as to the specific source of the problem, you can still move forward knowing there is a decent chance that it’s somehow plugin or theme related.

But how do you isolate the issue?


Is It a Plugin Issue?

Troubleshooting step: Rename your plugins folder to “_plugins” and then check your site.

The best way to accomplish this is via FTP. If you are looking for a good FTP client, you can check out Transmit (Paid) or Cyberduck (Free).

Renaming the plugins folder will automatically deactivate all of the plugins on your site. You shouldn’t lose any settings upon reactivating the plugins (I never have), but you never know. Understand that this is a risk, but it’s one worth taking if no one can access your content.

Once you’ve made the filename change, reload your site. If you still get the White Screen of Death, move on. It’s obviously not a plugin issue.

But if your site comes back up, then you know there is a plugin issue. Now you just need to isolate which plugin it is. To do this, go to your dashboard and navigate to the plugins page. You’ll notice that all of the plugins are visible but deactivated. Start reactivating them one by one. After each activation, reload the site. At some point it will white screen again, and then you’ll know that the last plugin you activated is the culprit.

At that point, you can activate the rest of the plugins, make sure the site is still up, and then dig into what the specific issue is with the problem plugin.

So what do you do if it is not a plugin issue?


Is It a Theme Issue?

Troubleshooting step: Rename your themes folder to “_themes” and then check your site.

The best way to accomplish this is also via FTP.

Renaming the themes folder will automatically deactivate your current theme and replace it with the WordPress default theme. You shouldn’t lose any settings or widgets upon reactivating the themes folder (I never have), but you never know. Understand that this is a risk, but again, it’s one worth taking if no one can access your content.

Once you’ve made the change to the themes file, reload your site. If you still get the White Screen of Death, move on. It’s obviously not a theme issue either. At this point, contact your developer or hosting provider. Your white screen issue is more complicated than most.

But if your site comes back up with the themes folder changed (you’ll see your content with the WP default theme), then you know there is an issue with your previously active theme. You can either dig into it yourself or contact your developer for assistance.

At this point, if you have another theme that you want to use instead of the WP default, activate it while working on the issues with your main theme. Unless this theme has an issue as well, your site should display fine with it.

Question #5: Is your site still white screening after all of this?

If yes, get help.

It’s at this point you’ll definitely want to pull your developer and your host into the conversation. Let them know all of the troubleshooting steps you’ve already taken and give them any other pertinent information you’ve gleaned. They’ll appreciate it, and it will prevent them from wasting time doing work you’ve already done.

Then hopefully you can beat the White Screen of Death together in short order.

How To Move WordPress Site From One Host To Another In less than 5 Minutes

Easiest method to move your website or blog from one host to another.

How to move WordPress site from Hostgator, Bluehost, web4africa, lagoshost, 9jahosters, godaddy,namecheap to www.Philmorehost.com in few minutes?

Moving a blog from one hosting provider to another is not that difficult of a task, but changing domains in the process can be a headache. There are six main steps, which this article will walk you through:

Prep your old site
Prep your new environment
Work on a local copy of your site
Install old files in new environment
“Shut down” old site
Post production work
There is a bit of work that you need to do for this so it’s recommended that you read through this post fully first before you start.

1. Login to your cPanel

2. Click on File Manager and access your site and select Wp-Content folder.

3. Compress Wp-content folder. You can click on Compress button on the toolbar at the top.

4. Now select Wp-content.zip file and download it to your system by clicking on Download button on the toolbar.

5. Now comes the database part. Backup your database either using any wordpress plugin or from PhpMyAdmin in Cpanel.

6. Login to PhpMyAdmin and select the database related to your website. Click on Export and download the sql file to your system.

7. Now you have Wp-content.zip and sql (database) files ready. Here completes the Hostgator, Bluehost, 9jahosters, or godaddy part or source phase. Now let’s move to the destination host (PhilmoreHost / PH) to where we are shifting our site. Before that we need to point Nameservers to PhilmoreHost in your domain settings.

8. Login to domain settings and change Name servers.

9. If you intend to use an Addon Domain, Login to your cPanel.

10. Click on Addon Domains under Domains Section.

11. Mention your site name in step 1 as shown in the image below. It starts verifying your domain. Sometimes DNS propagation takes time to reflect changes and verify the domain. Sometimes it may instantly verify but few times may take time. Don’t touch Step2 , step3. Now create a directory name in Step4. Finally click on Adddomain. These steps vary depending on the host.



addon-domains212. Now navigate to your Cpanel again and click on FTP in the Files Section.

unlimited-ftp

13. In the UFTP window, select Wp-content.zip file in the left panel. Select and open the directory you created in the right panel. Now click on Right arrow between the panels. The file will be transferred to your cpanel.

uftp

14. Now back to your cPanel and install WordPress on the domain. We are not going deep into how to install WordPress here. This will create an empty wordpress site. Don’t worry, your site will get all the settings and articles in few minutes.

15. Click on File Manager in Cpanel, navigate to wp-content folder in your site directory (public_html/yoursitedirectory) and rename it to wp-content.old

16. Now select the wp-content.zip file, click on Extract button on the toolbar. Wp-content will be extracted and placed in your directory. Ex: public_html/yoursitedirectory/wp-content

17. Access PhpMyAdmin from the Cpanel of PhilmoreHost. Create a database by giving some name (remember this database name) and select the database. Click on Import button. Now select the sql file saved in your system. So your database file will be imported. Go to mysql database and after creating db assign the user in wp-config.php file.

18. Open Wpconfig.php file in public_html/yoursitedirectory and make the following changes.

Find out the line that is similar to” define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘………………………….’); “
Just comment that line by typing // before the line.
Now add the line below the commented line
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘Your_database_name_here’);
Now find “$table_prefix” and ensure the prefix of the tables matches the prefix in your database tables in PhpMyAdmin In PhilmoreHost the prefix is wp_ and so it should be:
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’;
Save the file.
This prefix changes from one host to another.

Bingo! you are done with all the steps. Check your website or blog and also try to login with all the same credentials that you used to.

Again, this is the summary of what we did

1. Compress wp-content in source (Hostgator, Bluehost, 9jahosters, godaddy). Download the zip file.
2. Backup the database and download it.
3. Change Name servers in your domain. Add domain in destination hosting (PhilmoreHost) and verify it. Create directory under public_html
4. Install WordPress on your domain in PH. Access File Manager for your domain, rename existing wp-content as wp-content.old and unzip or extract the wp-content file.
5. Create database in PH and import sql file already downloaded in step2.
6. Change wp-config.php settings. That’s it.
The only time taking process is downloading and uploading of zip file if it is a large one. We used special internet connection of 8MBPS and it took just 2 minutes to download 650 mb file and 20 mins to upload. Entire process completed in 40 mins to shift one of our existing blogs from 9jahosters and lagoshost to www.PhilmoreHost.com .

How to Migrate From to Self-hosted WordPress

First thing first

Before you start the migration from to self hosted WordPress, you will need to have:

a domain name
a web hosting account and
the WordPress software already installed.
If you do not have any of the three, go to PhilmoreHost and register for a domain name and a webhost account.

Once you have registered for your domain name and web hosting plan, you will receive an email with your login info.

Click on the cPanel link and login with your username and password.

Once you are in the cPanel dashboard, scroll down till you see the Softaculous icon. Click on it.

On the left pane or among the list icons click on the WordPress link.

You will need to install wordpress on your domain, click here to lear how to install wordpress.

You can test it by going to the URL http://your-domain.com/wp-login.php

Migrating from

The next thing that you are going to do is to export all your content from your site.

Login to your account and go to Tools -> Export

migratewp-wp-export


Click the Download Export File button to export the content. It should generate a XML file.

migratewp-export-xml


Importing to the content to your self hosted WordPress site

Login to your self hosted WordPress site and go to Tools -> Import.

Click on the WordPress link.

migratewp-import-xml1


Upload the XML file. It will then prompt you to map the posts author to the new account’s author. Remember to check the box “Download and import file attachments”

migratewp-import-assign-author

Note: If your XML file is more than 2MB in size, you might face problem uploading it to the server (most servers only allow 2MB of file upload). You will have to submit a ticket to your web host and get them to increase the file upload limit.

Redirecting readers from to self hosted WordPress site

You have migrated your content over, don’t you want to migrate your readers over too?

Currently there is no free way to do this. The only way to redirect your readers is to use the domain mapping method which will cost you $9.97 per year.

You can head on to the WordPress support site for detailed instructions to map the site to your domain. In general, you need to:

change the nameserver of your domain to point to the server
Add your domain name to your site in the Settings -> Domains section (This will require you to pay an annual fee of $9.97).
Change the nameserver of your domain back to its original setting.
With that, any readers arriving at your site will be redirected to your self hosted WordPress site. You get to keep your readers as well as your search engine ranking.

That’s it. If you have any questions, feel free to shoot them in the comments.
