My friend has a Wordpress website and she has no idea how to change anything so she asks me. How can I change the default contact email address?
This is the one that appear on the top bar, sort of towards the left. If you click on it, it opens your default email program. I'm looking in the Wordpress settings but I don't see where it is saved.
I am logging in as the site admin and looking for the setting. I'm not looking at the backend.
Not clear what you mean by top bar - left. There is no email there in WP admin. But the default email for WP admin is under Settings > General > Email Address when you are in the admin section. For the logged in user email you can click on your icon top right and select the Edit my profile menu option.
If by "top left" you are referring to the frontend of the site (as opposed to admin) then its a custom thing that the theme placed there. Themes are developed by independent authors and not part of the core WP and many themes have their own settings panel (which makes finding certain settings difficult as the theme author placed it wherever they wanted). Oftentimes the theme has its own menu entry in admin so look for that.
Additionally since you mention "contact email address" perhaps there is a contact form on the site. By default WP has no contact form so these are added by plugins. Most likely they make use of the administrator email addressI mentioned first but can also be overridden. The place to look depends on the form plugin but common ones might be Contact Form 7 which I think places its settings under the Settings menu. Another popular one is Gravity Form which has its own entry in admin.
Hope that helps.

Asking what the title says. I made a plugin where the Title, Date and Link is automatically added on a new Elementor Page. I only want one section of the page to be edited by a user with no admin privileges, is it possible?
If you look at the screenshot, the content containing "Researchers and Industrial Leaders..." is the only one I need to be able to get edited.
If you're familiar with ACF or JetEngine you could dynamically connect that section to an editable section in the dashboard... that way your user stays out of Elementor but can edit sections on the site.
That's how I do it.
I am new in wordpress world and i am planning to do a small store website, all the functionalities i need are already there in woocommerce, but there is this small functionality i need which is as below:
in the homepage i need to show 3 different services are served from the company and each service will have a button which will show a popup or redirect the user to another page.
the popup or the new page will ask the user to enter his information along with his mobile number so the company could contact him.
and i have chooses this theme https://themebeez.com/demos/?theme=orchid-store
and here is a picture of where exactly the change will be
So my question is what is the fastest way to do that, is there a plugin to do this for me, or i should make the actual functionality myself and edit the theme code also manually?
Thanks.
In the homepage i need to show 3 different services are served from
the company and each service will have a button which will show a
popup or redirect the user to another page.
Basically 3 buttons that got you to another page. That can be easily done with just editing the template. Look the support documentation to see if your theme can be edited by some page builder (mine uses Composer, etc) and just add the "buttons", if not you need to edit the template manually with some HTML. Nothing to complicated, it just HTML, not PHP or JS.
the popup or the new page will ask the user to enter his information
along with his mobile number so the company could contact him.

Please clarify, popup or a new page? If it is a new page, when you create the 3 buttons on the homepage, just connect that to a new page each (in the Admin Panel, New>>Page). That it is easy as just but the <a href> tag. But also, that's just how I would do it in a short time.
So my question is what is the fastest way to do that, is there a
plugin to do this for me, or i should make the actual functionality
myself and edit the theme code also manually?
Asking for plugins is offtopic in SO, also, where is going to go that data? In the database? or is going to be sent to some admin email? Please see the How to Ask
But I think there is exist a lost of plugins to help you with that. You just need some custom fields so Have you tried searching for some? I use one to get in contact with clients which may fulfill your requirements
I have migrated my website & using Avada theme.
I can see my comment section isn't showing.It shows comments are closed though I have allow comment from the discussion area.
In the Admin area of your site, click on "Settings" (on the far right). That should bring up the "General Settings" page.
In the "Membership" row, make sure that the following is checked:
"Anyone can register" (unless you want to manually add users, say friends and family).
And that "Users must be registered and logged in to comment" is unchecked. I think that's the option that's blocking the comment form in your case.
Secenario is that website has an admin for website in wordpress and users
can only post/edit their posts.
User panel is diffrent form main theme (its default gray one).
Is there a way to write a custom user panel that would work with wordpress
login and that would look like main site, having only post/edit/logout functions?
yes, you can change how your dashboard looks.
on how to change the style of dashboard - take a look here.
on how to restrict user access to only certain parts of the dashboard - you can do that easily with the capability manager plugin.
Anybody knows a good plugin for Wordpress to provide a nice Admin dashboard which also cleans the regular Wordpress update mess. I do not want customer getting distracted with the loaded content in the backend with events, news and updates (messy content updates) in the Backend login? Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure if I understand what you're needing. If you're looking for a way to hide a lot of the stuff in the WordPress control panel, Adminimize is a good plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/adminimize/
There are also plugins to hide the update reminder: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hide-update-reminder/
And to control what appears on the add/edit post page: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-cms-post-control/
Using a combination of the above, you can redirect users directly to the post page (skipping the dashboard) when they log in, and limit what they see in the control panel menu to an amazing extent. You can allow them to see widgets, for instance, but not see the themes page.
Hope this helps.

In the latest WordPress versions, >2.7, you can set the admin screen to display only a subset of the Admin widgets.
Just click on Screen Options at the top right of the Admin page to reveal option checkboxes.
For example, you can uncheck "WordPress Development Blog", and "Other WordPress News". You can even format the screen to be just one column and only show the "QuickPress" widget.
