Search Results for 'header'

Thanks. It works.

Here is the Custom CSS Code for others to use:

.white-menu #td-header-menu .td-normal-menu .sub-menu {
-webkit-box-shadow: -6px 10px 6px -6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
-moz-box-shadow: -6px 10px 6px -6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
box-shadow: -6px 10px 6px -6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
background-color:#F2F2F2;
}

.td-header-sp-top-menu .top-header-menu .sub-menu {
-webkit-box-shadow: -6px 10px 6px -6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
-moz-box-shadow: -6px 10px 6px -6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
box-shadow: -6px 10px 6px -6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
background-color:#F2F2F2;
}

What happens is that the Header is covering up the background.

Part of the Menus.

Can you explain the background of the subject itself, the MENU gets smaller and appears correctly. But disabling the background, the header is in Full.

You can put the header in boxed?

Thanks.

Hi

If you want to customize the top menu drop down you need to affect this classes: .td-header-sp-top-menu .top-header-menu .sub-menu

Thanks!

9. HTML 5 SEO suggestions/questions:

9.1 Could you wrap the main menu with the <nav></nav> tag?

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/nav

9.2 Should the <header></header> tag contain the top menu, logo, top ad banner, and main menu?

I see that Newspaper does this: <article><header><h1>Title</h1></header> content </article>

One theme I have does this: <header> logo, menu, ad, search </header><article><header><h1>Title</h1></header> content </article>

Another them does this: <header> logo, menu, ad, search </header><article><h1>Title</h1> content </article>

In my opinion, <header> would tell Google the information in this tag is not the content. Thus I would go with the third option. I am not certain of this however. Any thoughts?

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/header

9.3 Should the entire sidebar be wrapped with the <aside> tag? I think Newspaper widgets are individually wrapped with <aside> but this does not happen for all widgets. Two of my other themes wrap the sidebar with <aside>.

Yoast SEO has had numerous bugs, check the changelog sometime to see how many bugs they have had. My contention was simply that using Yoast SEO as a “comparator” to anything else related to bugs, is not a good metric.

Total number of changelog items is clearly not a good metric for determining how buggy software is. There’s no way for a developer to anticipate how their software will work once it’s installed in a million websites. Without an analysis of the major releases, subsequent point releases, and any discovered negative impacts to the entire user base, you can’t just call WordPress SEO plugin “buggy”.

H1 is useful on home page; H2 also useful for topical elements such as section heads, but not so much for story heads ad they are ephemeral; meaning, they change daily, so they are not sticky and therefore not relevant to long-term, long-tail SERPS placement.

Blocks/modules that contain “featured content” or “most popular posts” can live on the home page indefinitely. I would argue that most niche site home pages do not change daily. If someone adds new content every day, they are likely more “authority” or “news” than “niche”. Niche sites rely on on-page SEO more heavily than authority or news sites.

If my homepage contains an H1 containing “Best Sprocket Reviews – SprocketReview.com” and an H2 link containing “Samsung Turbo Sprocket Review”, does this provide zero SEO benefit to my article in your opinion?

I only speak as an SEO expert having been building websites since March 1995… but what the hell do I know?

That’s all great but in this thread you suggested that short posts don’t rank, missing alt tags I defined are not a theme concern, 800-1200 word original content in lieu of on-page SEO is adequate for “the best SEO”, and H1 & H2 do not provide the benefit on homepages and archives to warrant adding them to the theme. I don’t think SEOs would agree with this.

Having the theme selectively add H1 to the home page is not as hard as you make it out to be. In one of my themes it’s accomplished with a single IF statement.

Having the theme add H1 and H2 to the home page and archive pages will help more users than it would hurt. Almost all of the sites listed on page one of the showcase thread are missing H1 and H2 on their home and archive pages. Sure, we can say that these users are responsible for knowing and correcting their own SEO. Or, the theme can help users who don’t know any better. The latter option is clearly better than the former.

One might also argue it’s useful to inspect the demo of a theme before buying it…

I actually mentioned the header issues to TagDiv before buying the theme (5/4 email). I purchased the theme anyway because I liked it and planned to pursue getting the SEO issues fixed. TagDiv has added the H1, H2, and Alt Tag issues to the list so, so far so good. I’ll be running more SEO tests on the theme when I get time.

…then using it, then posting numerous times how bad it is or buggy, vs. requesting possible changes politely?

I never said Newspaper was bad or buggy. To the contrary, in this very thread I said “I love the theme”, I said Newspaper was “awesome” and I said Newspaper “is not buggy”. All of my replies to TagDiv have been polite. You are clearly mischaracterizing what I said.

All this effort to block adding two HTML tags to a WordPress theme. Geez…

FYI,
Yoast SEO has had numerous bugs, check the changelog sometime to see how many bugs they have had. My contention was simply that using Yoast SEO as a “comparator” to anything else related to bugs, is not a good metric.

So, you don’t need to debunk my statement, as it’s well known. Yoast has had numerous bugs which break the site, break other plugins, and major security flaws (where they finally hired a security firm to check them).

H1 is useful on home page; H2 also useful for topical elements such as section heads, but not so much for story heads ad they are ephemeral; meaning, they change daily, so they are not sticky and therefore not relevant to long-term, long-tail SERPS placement.

The “home page” is typically not “critical” for SEO, as you want your “post” to rank higher than your home page for a specific story, including the title and excerpt, so causing them to fight each other is un-wise.

I only speak as an SEO expert having been building websites since March 1995, and widely interviewed on SEO topics by Entrepreneur, PCWorld, Monster.com, etc. And we had a highly successful SEO business for 10 years with over 2 million #1 positions in Google and Yahoo for our clients. And, oh yeah, I have two Harvey Measurement Awards for “most responsive advertising,” and a design award from Apple Computer, Inc. for marketing campaigns for Apple retail products in California, and built Oprah Winfrey’s ecom solution for her “Begin with Love” video series; but what the hell do I know?

TagDiv does provide the tools to add H1 tags to any home page and it should be up to any theme user / site developer to manage their own SEO practices. It could be needlessly confusing to have a built in H1 element on the home page template as there is no default home page template technically, since the presumption is you would be “rolling your own.” So this would require yet another set of code to check if home page and insert something in header, have toggles for on/off, and remove code for those doing their own H1 placement as we have done with WP for 10 years now. Frankly if folks can’t be aware of SEO for their own site, they are generally not that worried about it — and these are often same folk not reading the WP codex to learn how to set permalinks, etc.

One might also argue it’s useful to inspect the demo of a theme before buying it, then using it, then posting numerous times how bad it is or buggy, vs. requesting possible changes politely?

These are just my thoughts, having used Newspaper for almost 2 years now, and have great traffic, great SEO, and placement in Google News, Bing News, and syndicated worldwide through major information systems like LexisNexis, etc.

But that’s just me. Your mileage, as in all things, will vary.

Hi

You can style the the sub-menus using custom css like here: http://screencast.com/t/VXRHTVEAKq and you can change the style properties as you like, and here are a few example: https://css-tricks.com/almanac/properties/b/box-shadow/ Also if you want to create your own shadow here are a lot of useful information: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css3_shadows.asp The classes remain the same, just properties must be change if you want to customize.

.white-menu #td-header-menu .td-normal-menu .sub-menu{
-moz-box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #000000;
-webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #000000;
box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #000000;
}

To change the submenus color use this classes .white-menu #td-header-menu .td-normal-menu .sub-menu and set the background color as you want.

Thanks!

Hi

Try using this css and replace the other one i gave you:

@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-header-top-menu-full, .td-header-sp-top-menu {
display: block!important;
}
}

it should work fine as you can see here: http://screencast.com/t/RdMUB9sk but like I said above the elements don’t have style properties and may not be displayed fine.

Thanks!
