There have been a LARGE number of bugs with the Yoast SEO plugin released last week (1.5), and about three or four patches so far. Still buggy as hell with 1.5.2.3 (including option for Google News keywords not saving to dbase or showing in the SEO post panel). I rolled back my sites to the prior version (stable), 1.4.25 due to a lot of issues including a major memory spike on our server post 1.5 update. If you look at the changelog for 1.5 it’s pretty awful, and doesn’t bode well for their new development team, frankly.
SERIOUSLY …. (!)
— YOAST SEO 1.5 BUG FIXES (SO FAR) —
1.5.2.3
** Note: if you already upgraded to v1.5+, you will need to retrieve your Facebook Apps again and please also check your Google+ URL. We had some bugs with both being escaped too aggressively. Sorry about that. **

◾Flush our force title rewrite buffer earlier in wp_footer so it can be used by other plugins in wp_footer. Props Gabriel Pérez Salazar.
◾Start the force rewrite buffer late (at 999) in template_redirect instead of get_header because of several themes not using get_header, issue #817 as reported by Jrf.
◾Fixed ‘Page %d of %d’ / %%page%% variable not being replaced when on pages, as reported by SGr33n in issue #801 – props Jrf.

I have found :
In the file parts/header-style-1.php :
<div class="span8" id="td-header-widget">
<?php
// Header Widget
if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar("td-header-widget") ) :
endif;
?>
</div>
<div class="span8">
<?php
// show the header ad spot
echo td_global_blocks::get_instance('td_ad_box')->render(array('spot_id' => 'header'));
?>
</div>
I have add this code in functions.php
register_sidebar(array(
'name'=>'Header Widget',
'id' => 'td-header-widget',
'before_widget' => '<div id="td-header-widget">',
'after_widget' => '</div>',
'before_title' => '<div class="block-title"><span>',
'after_title' => '</span></div>'
));
And I add thic code in header.php
default:
// this is the default header configuration
// (logo + ad) + menu
locate_template('parts/header-style-1.php', true);
if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar("td-header-widget") ) :
endif;
locate_template('parts/menu-header.php', true);
break;
it works, but is it like that I should do?
Thanks for your answer !
You’re right ! I thought that the widget Block 2 means Module 2… but no
@mbasche – Okay, weiß jetzt, was du mit dem Subtitle-Thema machen willst/wolltest/machst.
Ich nutze z.B. Block 1; bestehend aus Module 2 und 3. Hier geht es um M3 bzgl. der Excerpts. M2 ist klar – da kann ich die Excerpts übers Theme Panel einstellen.
Um dir ein Bild zu machen, gehe auf meine Website/home und siehe (etwas scroll down) ‘Rock & Pop’.
@ocbln: Ich benutze die “Subtitles” ähnlich wie auf Nachrichtenportalen (welt.de etc.) als “Dachzeilen” über dem Titel. Und diese wollte ich nicht nur in der Artikelansicht, sondern auch als Modul, um sie auf der Startseite abbilden zu können.
Meinst du einen “Block” oder ein “Modul”. Erstes besteht ja aus Modulen. Welche Datei genau betrifft das denn?
@mbasche – Was ich noch gerne hätte wären Excerpts unter den Thumnails bei Block 4 oder 5. War es das, was du mit Subtitles bewirken wolltest? Habe selber im php-code von den Blocks gefummelt und soweit auch Erfolg gehabt; aber bei der Ansicht über Pad und Phone sind die Excerpt-Zeilen in die Thumbnails reingerutscht. 🙁
Hi,
The stick post works on latest article loop, if you want to enable it on blocks you need to change it like here: http://screencast.com/t/ZdOXXCasT
Thanks!
Hi,
The unique article apply on the entire page, this mean sidebar, footer, header anywhere where you have posts.
You can use offset feature if you want to achieve something similar.
Thanks!
@TeeTasse:
.td-header-menu-wrap .td_data_time {
display: inline-block;
float: left;}

Hi:
I was searching about sticky posts and the Newspaper theme. I mean, if I mark a post as sticky in WP post editor, where is this post displayed or if the “sticky” status is used on the theme?
I know that the default Featured category is used to feature posts all over the theme, but if I want to stick a post, is this status still usable on the theme or do I have to make changes to display it?
I was trying to look for the sticky status option when configuring the blocks on visual composer, but I see none.
Thanks!
@TeeTasse – Öffne ThemePanel->CSS und füge folgende Zeilen ein (danach speichern nicht vergessen!):
/* Topmenu one row
————————————*/
.menu-topmenue-container{
display: inline-block;
}
OKay, i figured out that the unique article system is also filtering the sidebar. This practically makes it impossible to make a latest posts block in the sidebar. Please fix this in the future update!
Hi,
I use Block 2 in the sidebar and on the homepage below the slider just like the demo. They are both set to “latest posts” but both blocks keep showing old posts! I use a caching plugin but that could never be the problem. Though i tried deleting my cache, but the problem still persists!! I already tried removing the blocks and adding them again, but nothing seems to fix the problem. The block 2 latest post widget in the sidebare shows posts from 24 february, but my site is updated daily with new posts….
Please help!
Hi Marius,
I did this from above post
<blockquote>Edit this file, delete that code and put your ad code instead http://screencast.com/t/Ow0U9wvGjPj`
And it works well. Two more questions:
1. Is it possible to show More Article Box on Custom Post Types like events from Event Manager Plugin?
2. Can I show More Article Box on Pages, not just posts?
Cheers
Hallo,
ja, ich habe Events Manager (Custom Post Type) eingebaut und erscheint jetzt auf Homepage in beliebigen Blocks (auch gefiltert nach Kategorie). Wer wissen will, wie, einfach melden.
Grüße aus dem Schwabenland
Hi there,
From previous themes I used it was pretty standard to stop a slider (“Slide” Block in Visual Composer) when moving with the mouse over the image to give someone time to read the content.
Do you have something similar?
Cheers
@mbasche – Meine letzte Frage wegen der Blocks 6 bis 9 hatte sich schnell geklärt. Auf meiner localhost-Umgebung wurde die nicht angezeigt trotz regelm. Updates und neuerlichem aufspielen des gesamten themes. Auf der (online-) Serverumgebung waren sie aber vorhanden. Habe jetzt diese auf localhost gespiegelt. Alles wieder in Butter…
2. Can be replaced via CSS, should work with this CSS
.block-title a, .block-title span, .block-title label {
background-color: transparent !important;
color: #444444 !important;
padding-left: 0px;
padding-bottom: 3px !important;
padding-top: 0px;
display: inline-block;
font-family: 'Roboto Condensed', sans-serif;
padding: 3px 10px 3px 10px;
font-size: 18px;
}
Thanks!
Hi,
We will take a look for the next update. Thanks!
Hi
1. I would like to use the “Style 1” title instead of the default title for the “homepage latest articles”:
I don’t have the option to chose “Title style” for the homepage latest articles”, although I have that option for widgets, blocks etc.
2. Is there a quick way to set the “Style 1” title as the default title style?
Best,
Are

This should be very simple in the Theme Panel, but you do not have edit or “Blockquote” in your Custom Typography.
I simply want to change size and color, but because default css has !important on everything, my custom css does not stick.
Please add Theme Panel >> Custom Typography >> Blockquote
Hi,
I use block 3 but is it possible to have bigger pictures….I saw on your site that you use block 9….I cant see these in the builder…only block 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
My question is to have the picture bigger than Block 3 is showing?
Greetings Barry
