I broke something, categories don't work

Posted in: Newspaper

Something is happening to me that has never happened in many years.
I think everything has gotten complicated because I have tried a couple of caching and delayed loading script plugins. Now I have deactivated and deleted them both, but it is not enough.

It is happening that only one category is working on my home page, let’s call it “A” for convenience.
Any link in any category of the home will always result in category “A”, even if the title at the top spells the right name, all posts shown will be “A”.

Then the oddities continue: if I go to modify the home with “EDIT” and I confirm that under the menu item “B” category “B” opens, as soon as “SAVE” is done, all the categories of the home will show only the posts of “B “, also menu items” A “and” C “.

Even the category of every different posts, pressed in the home, will show all the posts of the “B”, even if the name of category be correct, posts are not.

I ask you for help please, where can I look to fix?

Thank you

Hi PaoloVe,
If I understand correctly you have some blocks on your homepage and in each of theme you want to display posts from specific categories, for this you can use the filter tab from each block -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
Also, if the problem is in the cloud categories too, then lease edit the cloud category template with tagDiv Composer and please check all blocks to be sure that those are set on current category -> https://i.imgur.com/9SKcC4Y.png -> https://i.imgur.com/bHmvQ3v.png, in this way the template will automatically filter only the selected category posts.
Thank you!

no, that’s not it…
the categories on the blocks are already set correctly…
the problem is that any category of the home you press (both menus, and more on blocks) will always give the same posts…
It’s hard for me to put it into words, could you take a look and try at the home please?
You will see that clicking any category on the page will result the same posts.
And if you go in a block to choose another category with “save” inside of “edit”, the posts of this last choice will appear by clicking on any category of home, always and only those …
I am worried …
Thanks for your help Calin

Hi PaoloVe,
I’m sorry to say it, but the filters on cloud category blocks are not correctly set, those need to be set only on “current category”. Please set it like this: -> https://i.imgur.com/9b32t9S.jpg -> https://i.imgur.com/kZ4pGAB.jpg (do no set a specific category, ids or anything else, only the current category).
If there is still a problem, please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin access and the link of this topic.
Thank you!

YOU GENIUS!
I did not understand to act on the categories, I continued to modify the home.
Why that voice has changed remains a mystery to me but the important thing is to have solved it.
Thanks for your help and I wish you best good is possible.
