Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 8

I have asinged this permalink: /%postname%/%post_id%/

It shows right permailink everywhere.. example like this: https://www.goandroid.co.in/fix-nexus-6p-bootloop-death-issue/78241/

but my webmaster is showing 404 errors from Google+ page. This is the 404 error url of the above url …https://www.goandroid.co.in/fix-nexus-6p-bootloop-death-issue/78241/post-78241

the “post-78241” is up from nowhere…

Please, have a look at it.
This is the Google+ profile where you can see the 404 error urls in the source code: https://plus.google.com/+SimranSingh93

Hi,

That would be normal permalink setting, but it seems there is another parameter added to the URL with the ID of the post. I have no idea why that happens, maybe there are similar topic online, check these guides for example

Try as well opening a topic in the Google webmaster forum, they might have an idea why that happens

I got this reply on webmasters…Hi there,

Here is the problem do have a look at the source code f your website: this is not a problem with your google plus page i found this on your website google crawled and showed you an error in search console.

and i think there is no need to use meta new_keyword google has stopped looking at it and dropped support for it and your WordPress admin url shows up have a deep look at it(recommended)

<meta name=”news_keywords” content=”Nexus 6P Issues”> <script>
window.tdwGlobal = {“adminUrl”:”https:\/\/www.goandroid.co.in\/wp-admin\/”,”wpRestNonce”:”a55afc6ee2″,”wpRestUrl”:”https:\/\/www.goandroid.co.in\/wp-json\/”,”permalinkStructure”:”\/%postname%\/%post_id%\/”};
</script>

And the code below is generated by tagDiv COmposer Plugin.
<script>
window.tdwGlobal = {“adminUrl”:”https:\/\/www.goandroid.co.in\/wp-admin\/”,”wpRestNonce”:”a55afc6ee2″,”wpRestUrl”:”https:\/\/www.goandroid.co.in\/wp-json\/”,”permalinkStructure”:”\/%postname%\/%post_id%\/”};
</script>

When i turn it on, code comes back on every post and when i deactivate it vanish away.

Please have a look.

So that extra parameter in the URL is added only when the tagDiv composer is active from what I understand. If that is the case we could take a look, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login information, FTP and cPanel access if possible. Include a link to this topic in the email.

Hi, does this topic has a solution?

I have three websites with the same 404 problem. Both of them use Newspaper and the other one is using Newsmag.

Somebody suggest, in spanish (https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/webmaster-es/vYXkCwRIXnA/Uxmz6ACQAQAJ), that the problem is generated by the theme (Newspaper and Newsmag) treatment on post-id inclusion on the article id and class. Not sure how to fix it but this is hurting our SEO since is giving a 404 error from Google Plus.

Please guys, we need a solution.

Hi,


@pacoesni
I believe that issue was resolved after the investigation of the case from above. It was a problem with the tagDiv composer.
Do you use the latest theme version 9.0.1? Please provide a link to one of the websites you mention.

I updated all my websites. Waiting for this to work.

I’m using Newspaper 9.0.1 and tagDiv Composer 2.3 (built on 10.08.2018) on two sites: https://www.playerone.vg and https://www.coincrispy.com

Also, I’m using Newsmag 4.5 and tagDiv Composer 2.3 (built on 10.08.2018) on: https://www.tekcrispy.com

I’m still getting error 404 since google crawler is reading the ‘post-xxxxx’ on the URLs.

On the webmaster forums, everyone who has the same error is using Newspaper.

Please help me to fix this because it is hurting our SEO abruptly.

I made some inquiries about the Google plus issue, it seems that the problem was investigated but solving it will not be easy. It may take a while to do more testing and find a solution.
We are very sorry for this inconvenience.

An unfortunate that TagDiv needs to solve it ASAP. Google is penalizing new posts URLs just because those 404 generated by TagDiv Composer. You should advice your users about this problem which is not a minor bug but something that would be very harmful for their SEO.

I’m trying to not go back to Visual Composer since looks that the obvious solution but it would be painful for our server.

Any news about this issue? TagDiv needs to get more serious about it. 404 are damaging our SEO.

No updates I can provide unfortunately, it is on our list and it will be looked over. In the topic you provided from the webmaster forums seems that other users with various themes and plugins suffer from the same problem with Google+, so it would not be specific to this theme.

Also from what I read 404 errors do not affect ranking in Google or indexing
