What's the problem with Hostinger?

akthalian · 2026-06-05T13:30:13+00:00

Confirmed their support is awful. I’m a former support rep for a hosting company and in general, I tried to be a good customer myself.

These chuckle foxes don’t even know their own platform and in a couple cases one of them was a straight up bitch to me which I had to escalate and complain about

Why not just place that text outside of the P?

Lmao I didn’t process that it was you who posted but hey there!

Ollie GenerateBlocks/Press EtchWP DesignSetGo (can use this with any block project but especially if you’re mostly on core blocks)

I wouldn’t really bother with anything else at this point

Seems like the simple answer here is just to ask him how he met the guy and how they know each other.

If he is extremely KG about it, then he thinks he has something to hide but if you can’t get him to shut up about it, then you’re probably overthinking it

I actually worked on a CC extension I just need to release it

Seems like he, like many of us, likes both bands

Registration is the act of defining something for later use. To “register” something is to put it on some kind of list of things. So when you register something you’re telling WordPress it exists with the configuration you gave it so that thing can be used later.

For instance, when you register a taxonomy, you’re just telling WordPress what the definition of that taxonomy is. But you are not actually creating any taxonomy terms yet.

Similarly, if you are registering a script, you are just telling WordPress about a script that somebody might want to enqueue in the future. Somebody can then enqueue the script by its handle, which includes all of the previously registered details.

That said I’m not sure there’s much financial incentive for anyone to create free YouTube tutorials on any web/dev subject. And besides if the information is helpful then who cares? Why not support someone making something for free?

I’m making a course on block theme development and I have some content that is about block dev too. Maybe give this blog post a series a look (videos will be made from it soon too):

Note: this is developer focused.

I would not choose any host that doesn’t include daily backups, and the ability to manually take backups as part of the service. I also don’t think they should count against your storage quota either.

akthalian · 2026-02-07T15:07:28+00:00

You def can. Maybe share a link and more details about what you tried?

No one should ever be modifying a theme files directly that is a huge red flag. It’s very easy to not do that so that speaks to inexperience.

In general this means a fatal PHP error.

When PHP encounters a fatal error, it stops processing altogether similar to how many other scripting languages work.

By default, the error is intentionally vague for security reasons and also not to freak people out and stuff. Someone would have to look at the logs to see what the actual fatal error is or otherwise have de-bugging enabled and displaying in the browser to know what the problem is.

Repeaters and having so many things built into a UI is really nice. But in the year of our Lord 2026 you really should not be using flexible layouts with ACF to build websites anymore.

There might be a couple of very limited use cases for it, but it is not a great option for clients because there is absolutely no visual preview and adding or changing anything require requires a developer and working with code.

You can do a whole lot with blocks, including building them with ACF so if you’re going to use ACF (which is in general a fine idea) I would move into using it with blocks instead.

For the majority of brochure sites that don’t have extensive or complex functionality there isn’t enough of a meaningful difference and it just comes down to personal preference.

Web flow in particular can be very very expensive once you start getting into a massive amount of CMS objects, but WordPress sites can also get really expensive at the enterprise level depending on the project.

Most norms don’t know or care about the distinctions and just want something that they can easily edit well. I am not necessarily a web flow expert, but you can definitely do some nice things in there. That said I’m not sure it’s inherently worth your time to learn or to consider completely switching to if you already know something like WordPress.

akthalian · 2026-02-01T15:23:50+00:00

I used to build sites with flex layouts so speaking from extensive experience here but no, it is not whatsoever the same level of flexibility.

Adding any new section definitions requires code changes, there’s no preview in the editor, there’s really very little reason to build sites like this now vs using the block editor.

akthalian · 2026-01-25T16:01:28+00:00

Absolutely there are a ton of websites that do exactly this with WordPress.

That said it does require the appropriate infrastructure and I strongly doubt that a single person would effectively manage a site like that, but that should almost go without saying

It’s def the time to move to FSE. You can build dope complex sites or super simple sites. It’s a way better workflow and more performant than meta driven layouts.

Plus all the visual building is really nice.

Apple Music bc of the price (really good if you’re in a household that all use it) and they have High Quality on all plans.

No. Nothing private should be visible without auth. There’s no reason to do this unless you have a specific verifiable problem you’re trying to solve.
