  • Revert Elementor Taking Over a Page

    Accidentally clicking the Edit with Elementor button can ruin a perfectly good page. Sabotage or delete post meta fields for the post or page with these keys:

    • _elementor_edit_mode
    • _elementor_template_type
    • _elementor_version
    • _elementor_css

    wp-cli commands

    Change the zero to an appropriate post or page ID.

    wp post meta delete 0 _elementor_edit_mode
    wp post meta delete 0 _elementor_template_type
    wp post meta delete 0 _elementor_version
    wp post meta delete 0 _elementor_css

  • TP-Link Deco Mesh Wifi Setup on Xfinity

    While trying to setup TP-Link Deco mesh wifi devices, I found that it was easy to plug one of the devices into my existing wifi router. The Deco creates its own wifi network, however, instead of boosting the signal where it was plugged in.

    Problem: Light Turned Red

    I tried to replace my router with the Deco, and I ran into a problem. The light turned red after creating the Wi-Fi name and password.

    Solution

    On Xfinity, the correct IPTV/VLAN settings are:

    • Turn on IPTV/VLAN
    • Connection type Dynamic IP
    • Mode Bridge

    Where to input these settings

    1. Open the Deco app
    2. Navigate to More -> Advanced -> IPTV/VLAN

    This helped me configure my TP-Link Deco Mesh W3600 devices, but may work for other wifi networks using Xfinity internet.
