Wrecksite Save The Day
Just a quick blog here.
Recently, I've installed Sumome plugin on my website because it has a LOT of neat features (list-building, popup, heatmap, social sharing, etc). You can see Jason's training about Sumome here:
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/analyse-g...
However, my website has been crashed after installed it. Social sharing buttons are always shown in the left side of my windows, even if I changed the display setting. Some of image display and homepage layout also has been wrecked.
What's worse, I try to deactivate and delete the plugin, but the mess it created still persist. Thankfully, I used a Wrecksite to try it first before applying it to my main website.
For more information about Wrecksite / Testing Site, you can see Loes' training here:

After a careful looking, it looks like my theme also doesn't compatible with other social sharing plugin (super socializer), because the mess still persist. I need both to be removed :)
So, this is my advise. Always do a backup when you want to install a new plugin, or at least do it in a test website. It may save your time and effort, rather than panicking because your website has been messed by a plugin.
P.S. : Anyone has recommendation for good social sharing plugin?
Cheers,
Ferdinand

Haha yes Loes, and actually it is because of your training I am saved from the big mess :) Thanks for the recommendation. Will looking into it.
Thanks Ed :) Yes it is alright now. Just looking for another social sharing plugin, though
"Add To Any" plugin is so very easy to use if all you want to do is share your post on the various social media.

It is always good to have a test site and back it up to,, it is quite and upset when things go wrong, but we do learn lessons from it
Yes Katie :) Mistakes are OK to happen because we can learn from it .
