Quick post to Wordpress - wordpress

There used to be a plugin for Tumblr where you could right click any image and quickly post to, well, Tumblr. It made creating posts on the fly really easy / quick.
Is there something similar in Wordpress?
I have a self-hosted Wordpress.org blog if that helps.

You can go to Settings > Writing and check the "Press This" section.
Press This is a bookmarklet: a little app that runs in your browser
and lets you grab bits of the web.
Use Press This to clip text, images and videos from any web page. Then
edit and add more straight from Press This before you save or publish
it in a post on your site.
Drag-and-drop the following link to your bookmarks bar or right click
it and add it to your favorites for a posting shortcut.

Pop-up text on image click WordPress

I am designing a wordpress site for a friend. He wants the bio text to appear after clicking on necessary image. I noticed this is straight forward with Elementor Pro. I want to keep things free for him at the mo.
I am running the Astra theme with basic Elementor. I also know how to code so if you think this is a custom css job then let me know the work around. (I'm brand new to WP)
Many thanks
Try adding an onclick event to the image and write some java script to add text where you want or may be enable a hidden textarea ??

How to make changes on live wordpress website which has woocommerce data and orders?

I want to make changes to live WordPress websites like posts and pages.I used the woocommerce plugin on my website for purchasing products. How can I make website changes without affecting the customers? How can I know the changes in backend SQL file if I make the changes?
To edit a post that already exists on your site, go to Posts > All Posts in your WordPress dashboard. Click on the title of the post you want to edit in the list provided. If your list spans several pages, you can click through each page or enter your post’s title in the search box.
If you’re changing the post content, click on the post’s title to view the edit page. Make your changes to the post as needed. Once you’re finished, click the Update button to save your edited post.
The same goes with the page editing.
This will not effect to your Order or Products
It can be done basically in two ways:
1) Keep the website in maintenance mode and make the changes accordingly. There are many plugins out there. Ex. Wp Maintenance mode
2) You can update the website, it being live directly for ex. by editing the product details directly or you can edit any data whatever you wish to change.
After making the changes you will see the update changes going live. You don't need to goto mysql shell for this.
Hope this might help.

Broken images after moving blog (Wordpress+Non standard letters issue)

So last time I moved my WP blog, all the images with the non-standard letters "å, ä and ö" in their url was broken/gone. Is there any way to easily fix this and recover the images? Note that I can't do it manually since it's a big blog with a ton of pictures, so it has to be a bulk fix. On a sidenote, is there any downside to moving your blog using a plugin instead of using the SQL db backup?
Would be super grateful for help. Thanks. :-)
Log in to your WordPress admin panel.
From the Plugins menu, click Add New.
Type Search and replace, and then click Search Plugins.
Locate the Search and Replace plugin, and then click Install Now.
Click OK.
Click Activate Plugin.
From the Tools menu, click Search and Replace.
Enter your old site's URL in the Search for field. For example, http://olddomainexample.com (no trailing slash).
Enter your new site's URL in the Replaced with field.

Wordpress post creation option from menu

I have started using wordpress to create a website for my students. I have created users with contributor priviledges, so that they can write their own thoughts & submit them for moderation in the blog, but I don't want them to touch or get in the dashboard area.
I have tried Sidebar Login plugin which seems fit for my purpose, but it has some bug, which does not let it work as it suppose to. There was also no response from the developer regarding the problem.
Then I tried Press This tool in wordpress (Open Press This button) which seems perfect for my requirement, but I have no idea how to put Open Press This button in the menu bar in my site or at least to any of the pages.
Can anyone suggest a way out from the situation?

Prevent to automatically render youtube links in Wordpress Comments

Wordpress is now replacing the youtube links that people post into comments of a post with the actual video. It is rather anoying and I would like to know if it is possible to leave the link as is and not add the embed code to view the video directly from the comment container?
Have you tried entering that code in the TEXT tab rather than the VISUAL tab of the editor?
