Search Results for 'homepage'

Hi Marius,

yes I did set “Hide Content which is not available for the selected language” that you show here http://screencast.com/t/j2LHi6EPm – as I stated right in the first post of this topic.

Thank you for pointing me to “Homepage – with article list” template, I wasn’t aware of that and although it helps a bit, it still is not a real solution becuse the problems with custom built pages persist.

Before, I also said that I use WP v3.8.1 because it is compatible with latest available version of qTranslate. However, I encountered another problems with pagebuilder there (once I added some text block and tried to edit it, I wasn’t able to save/cancel/close it) so I was forced to update the WP to its latest 3.9.1 version.

Luckily enough, qTransalate works on the frontend in WP 3.9.1, except for custom built pages as I said a few times. In the backend, I am not able to switch between post editors for different language versions but that is not a major problem because <!--:en--> or [:en] tags still work as expected.

So to put it simply, my problem is this:
When I make custom page with slider, block or widgetized sidebar that show posts, the theme also shows there posts which are not available for currently selected language.

I also tried not to use my custom built page with slider and instead, use template called “Homepage – bg + with article list” (so that I can have the upper slider, even if it is not exactly the layout I desire), but that doesn’t show the top slider at all!

I assume that it will take some time to fix these, so my question is: what and where should I change to make custom built pages filter out the content that is not available for the currently selected language? If not all custom pages, at least the slider module please.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

hi,
you can’t just copy the function get_social_sharing() in any file and aspect to work.
take a look where the function is defined : http://screencast.com/t/00VeQol9k ,
http://screencast.com/t/LoV20WHKIG .

if you take a look at the constructor of the ‘td_module_blog’ class where ‘get_social_sharing()’ you will see that you need a ‘post’, this is way the social sharing work on single post pages and not on pages with multiple posts.

Thanks for you message.

Similar problem here, i want to put the social get_social_sharing() in page.php and i get this error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function get_social_sharing() on a non-object in /wp-content/themes/Newspaper/page.php on line 79

oh and also pagination is not showing on custom built pages (homepage in this case)

yes, I did set up the pagination, in the page builder and it acts weird

only option that works is “Load more button” … I just want the same style pagination as is on categories (showing page numbers and being able to navigate between them)

any way to fix it please?

Hi Marius,
yes I have read this https://forum.tagdiv.com/translate-your-site-in-multiple-language-with-qtranslate-plugin/

The theme works with qTranslate almost perfect, except for custom built pages.

Website is still in development mode but I did set an account for you to take a look

In the upper right corner you can switch between Czech and English language.
Notice the posts and right-hand side widget on homepage. You can see there are posts for both languages no matter which one you select. The problem is that not all posts are translated, so we need to show only those which are.

Category pages show only what is desired – posts in the selected language. But there’s a little problem here also – category description is being shown in both languages, the theme ignores qTranslate tags.

Homepage is custom page built as “Homepage – blank” and with no sidebar. However, sidebar is made in the page builder, so it shows as it is supposed to, except language settings. The reason for this is that I didn’t want to show page title on homepage.

Thank you for your reply.

Having the same issue just updated theme and installed the VC via the plugin and VC has vanished? Homepage is now broken?

Hello Radu and thank you for the reply. I am still using your theme in allof our subdomains. This is where our content lives. Ex: Greece.greekreporter.com. We are using WP Super Cache. We would love to use your theme on our homepage too but it doesn’t pull in the images from our subdomains. We use WP MS. Our host is Media Temple and we have a pretty powerful VPS with them.

If you stumble upon a specific error or find a solution please let us know. Thank you in advance!

h1 tags should always be used for the de-facto title of the story and match the title tags in meta for Google, Bing and Yahoo.

Technically there should only be one h1 tag for the title/block title; however in HTML5 there is support for multiple h1 tags in sections/containers.

For other tags, there isn’t a necessity to have a h2 show before an h3 unless you have these defined for nested semantic purposes and have such defined for the “semantic web.”

So, (inside main or article semantic containers)

main
h1 – title
h3 – subhead

h2 – giant sub section in body
h3 – subhead for subhead
p – explanation for information
h4 – definition heads
p – explanation for information
h4 – definition heads
p – explanation for information
h4 – definition heads
/main

would be perfectly fine

h2 – h5 can really be addressed as merely headline “sizes” to show priority as a “section head” vs simply a paragraph starter in strong/bold. Put another way, it is best in a story to use a h4 vs simply a strong/bold sub-head for, say, new chapter sections of a book serial. Anything with an h tag is identified semantically as a headline of some kind.

H1 on homepage – this is typically not a huge issue with newspaper sites as there is little or no original content on the “front page” .. it all links to the content pages on the site, which is what you want found when spiders show deep-link content to searchers. So, what exactly gets optimized on the front page? You can end up fighting your own content if you’re trying to get your home page to rank against “awesome motocross videos” versus the actual index on your site of all the motocross videos – both can’t be the best choice for the site.

If you’re running a store/shop, then h1 on home page is critical for branding and bringing folks to home page — if there is substantive original content on the home page.

After doing some research on it (thanks for pointing me in that direction) I’ve found that the H1 tag is the most SEO recognized tag. The others below it (H2-H6) are used for navigating content and sometimes, if Google doesn’t like the H1 tag it will substitute a lower heading tag as the page title.

Now with that said you’re right, Newspaper does not follow best practices for SEO heading tags. Currently the page title is an H1 and you suggest the following structure:

H1 > Page Title
H2 > Block Title
H3 > Post Title in blocks

But since this theme so readily includes options not to show the block title, whether in builder blocks or widget blocks, that would break the SEO of the heading tags anyway.

H1 > Page Title
H3 > Post Title in blocks

The revised structure would look like this, and it’s a big heading tag no-no to skip levels like H1 to H3/H2 to H4.

What I haven’t found is anything referencing any sort of disparity regarding SEO for using an H3 tag after an H4 tag.

Moreover, how many of us build a homepage in Newspaper and actually use the page title on that homepage? I haven’t seen one yet and I check most every link people post here helping with common support, my own site included. That means our homepages have no H1 tags and that is a big SEO problem in itself.

Of course screen readers, which are the secondary reason for using heading tags at all behind only page structure, use heading tags to navigate the page for the visitor. Would you rather the visitor first reach a content title or a structural block title?

Honestly I don’t see a right answer for this on this theme.

What you’re wanting is loop-single.php with a loop of posts afterward like homepage with loop. I’ve found no shortcode to accomplish this. You’d need to make a new post template from the homepage with loop page template (easiest way) but that’s not a feature in Newspaper. My advice is to hire a programmer for this task as it’s quite complicated requiring js, php, html, and css knowledge to make it work.

@kronos i sorted it out, i just had to re-create the homepage and it just went to being fine. i will let you and the tag div team after i post any new content on the website.

hi,
my advice is hire a programmer for this task, it will same time.

Thanks for you message.

@Kronos, due to some security updates in the wordpress 3.9 we thought that we should stay with the new update but I recently updated the theme to its version 3.8. Although, i haven’t posted anything out to see if the thumbnails are working correctly but on my homepage this code is displaying on top of the big slider — [vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"] and below the slider — [/vc_column][/vc_row]. please tell me how to remove it. and i will post about the thumbnail problem later.
