Sorry, probably unique to your setup.

Only time we’ve had admin issue in 11 years with WP, using 100+ themes was bad plugin, bad hosting setup or using one of those dorky “frameworks” that add a whole extra layer between theme, WP and admin panel.

Keep massaging your setup — if your site admin is speedy using another theme, but slow using this one, then there is some oddity there, to be sure, but that is NOT normal.

One presumes you have gobs of RAM allocated to WP, expanded your php timeout and uploads settings, gzip/deflate working right, opcache/memcache properly working, no oddball cookies or cookie blocking issues, correct http/https setup, etc.

Just throwing out ideas… 🙂

Super fast on our system running 20 sites with millions of unique visitors per month; dedicated server.

Lots of possible reason it impacts YOUR setup(s):
With fully updated WP (4.6x branch), disable “bad” plugins that modify admin screens not updated for latest versions of WP.

So, a bad admin mod plugin might do dumb stuff like load custom fonts (new WP uses native fonts), load jquery more than once; using external tools like Jetpack, stats plugins, etc can slooooow site down — not related to theme.

External plugins which do content checks, bad Yoast SEO settings, plugins that try to rewrite/optimize images you upload “in post” can all slow things down (e.g., better to upload media via media manager separately, THEN place in posts).

Often checking your admin pages with F12/console for broken things, or things loading more than once is useful.

Also make sure your cache is cleared in browser, make sure you’re not using adblock on your own admin panels, or some funky extension in your browser, etc.

Make sure you’re not having portions of your admin loaded via CDN, separate from local stuff due to timestamp mis-matches; make sure not blocking portions of your admin via robots.txt or htaccess, or using a minification or optimization plugin on your admin pages — all that stuff BREAKS things.

But to be clear, I can say we have super busy 15 year old news portals, udpated daily, using this theme highly optimized, and having zero issues with admin panels. Just as point of reference.

(( I don’t work here. ))

So, the plugin you’re using also adds a featured image to your media library, and shows on the post page as a “featured image” ?

If there is no local “featured image” for the post, then no thumbnail for blocks/modules can be created by WP.

Auto Post Thumbnail Pro (or similar) will take snap of first image in post or download and “create” and assign featured image to that post, which then is in the media library so WP can make thumbs resized for various modules.

Good luck!

(One presumes you have also turned on the module thumbnail “sizes” you want to use from the theme panel.)

You should update the plugins that come with the updated theme, per the install/upgrade docs.

Be sure to clear caching, reset CDN with any updates, also.

If it “suddenly happened” two days after updating the theme could be anything: web server update, hack, etc. If you have automatic updates turned on, WP might have updated something and broken site — theme doesn’t break the site randomly 2 days after update, in my own experience (I don’t work here).

You can try
a) not using child theme
b) theme needs VC if you have used it for anything like home page; or some of the CSS isn’t there. If you’re using the beta TD Composer, then only those blocks supported by TDC will work, any “special” VC blocks will not.
c) switch to default theme

Note you have a number of errors on your site for font not loading, missing image, and “OTS” parsing error related to font not decoding. Use F12/console in chrome to see browser errors.

You can disable the Comments balloons in the Theme Panel > Block Settings > Show Comment Count

Hey Chris, thanks–

What I do is, that I use a service Embed.ly, I use an URL from a fine article anywhere on the net, that I want to bring on my site. And a embed Quote code is created. I use this code to put into a post and bang: there is a post inkl. Excerpts incl. Image. It shows in post, or anywhere I want it on a page using VC to ad a spot for it.

The only thing I cannot do is show this image as a featured image, when I use Grids & blocks, it shows the title, excerp and text, but nut the image.

I tryed the plugin you mentioned, I ´cant understand, how this could help me..Am I missing something..:-)

Perhaps you had used smartlist 7 code from the recently updated Newspaper version which contains retina image features ( few codes used to retrieve retina image ). So, first it didn’t work for me but then I changed the code a little and only moved this file to a new place ablve // render the pagination


//adding description
if(!empty($item_array['description'])) {
$buffy .= '<span class="td-sml-description">' . $item_array['description'] . '</span>';
}

// ad smart list 7
$buffy .= td_global_blocks::get_instance('td_block_ad_box')->render(array('spot_id' => 'smart_list_7', 'spot_title' => $tds_smart_list_7_title));


and it worked. 🙂

Thank you.

Few more thing.

Isn’t it possible to get things in under the list in the same order as it is written .

I mean, First I write the title in H4 and hence smart list will detect that a new listicle number has started . Now I write 2 sentences and then a image and then 2 more sentences. How can I get published list in the same order.

For now, it either shows image first after the title or at the end and bring all written text at one place.

How can I position my texts at different place? Suppose for intro, I want few texts before the image and for end, I want few texts after the image.

I hope you are getting what I am trying to say.

Thank you.

Hi, and thanks.. but don’t work. The error is the same.
I have used wp text widget for test, but also with only block video the page go break.

Now this is my code:
[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_4][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][td_block_video_youtube playlist_yt=”UmogVFYB4Xg”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

HI

I’ve checked your shortcode and noticed that you added the playlist within a wp text widget. After I’ve removed the wp widget video playlist works fine. Try this shortcode instead, it should work fine:

[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_4][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][td_block_video_youtube playlist_yt="UmogVFYB4Xg"][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!

Well, you should not be blocking access to your wordpress install with robots.txt – if that is what you’re asking?

Hi Chris and thank you for your reply.
I understood what you wrote to me and thanks.
But what about the screenshot http://www.diorama.com/5.jpg which blocks a a lot of URLs, as Google says …?

Dinos.
