Hey Guys,
Im having an issue with the new mobile plugin theme, for the newspaper 7 update, i have configured all the options in the theme panel but the homepage of my website specifically the first block is showing old stories and also ads that i serve from Google dfp are not showing could i have miss configured something.
Hi,
Please read this guide on the mobile theme to learn how the top block sorts posts: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
It uses the featured posts sorting so if you have old posts in the featured category, it will show those.
Thank you!
Ok got it, so i would like to achieve two things:
1.Change the default category the mobile theme uses from featured to something else say latest.
which file would i need to work on to change this?
2.incorporate Double clicks for publishers ad units.
Now i tested the theme with google adsense code and it worked perfectly mainly because its a one part ad tag code. But double clicks for publishers uses a two part code that is one set of code is placed in the header.php file of the theme and the other code in the ad slot. but when i try this with the mobile theme it does not work.
How can i accomplish this?
Hi,
The sorting option for the grid on the homepage can be found here: http://screencast.com/t/e3FwmPsGsg
As for the Google DFP we have not tested this type of ads so we are not sure if they will work or not. If the implementation method requires adding a part of the code in header.php, please add it in the mobile header.php as there are 2 theme so there are 2 files with the same name: http://screencast.com/t/Sjf0GdeD
Thank you!
Ok thank you for the info, one more question, does the mobile theme support post offsets on the homepage just like the desktop blocks?
Hi,
Like Bogdan stated above the mobile theme comes with it own templates and the homepage content has a grid which displays featured articles and the latest articles section. There are not other sorting, filtering options in backend and also the offset feature is not available. We will consider it in future theme updates and also more options for mobile grid.
Thanks!
