CSS selector?

A plugin is asking me for the “CSS selector of the container that contains the content on a post and custom post type.”

Is this article .td-post-content?

And the same for “CSS selector of the container that contains the content on a page”?

Thanks

Thanks, Calin.

The plugin in question is Leaky Paywall. Where it asks in its settings for “CSS selector of the container that contains the content on a post and custom post type” I insert from this post https://jazzjournal.co.uk/2020/06/22/dinah-washington-four-classic-albums/

tdb_single_content

The plugin should insert a paywall message after this point. But it doesn’t appear.

If I reset same post using Style 1 standard post template, and insert

.td-post-content

the paywall message appears ok.

Can you see what the problem is with the cloud template post? It seems I can’t use a paywall plugin with any Newspaper cloud template.

Thanks

I should say it worked for a while with tdb_single_content but then stopped appearing without me making any changes. On this post the paywall message is currently appearing – https://jazzjournal.co.uk/2020/08/17/count-me-in-08-20/. But for how long? It seems erratic and inconsistent.

The best solution is Newspaper creates an integrated paywall plugin. It’s an obvious addition to a theme whose main sellable product is content. I’m sure many would pay an extra premium for such a plugin. Has it ever been considered?

Ok, both https://jazzjournal.co.uk/2020/06/22/dinah-washington-four-classic-albums/ and https://jazzjournal.co.uk/2020/08/17/count-me-in-08-20/ are now showing paywall message ok, although I cannot get the required number of HTML elements to show before the message. I realise you don’t support 3rd plugins but any help in figuring this out is welcome.

One problem is that Leaky Paywall only seems to give the option for one content container but I am using at least 2.

Thanks

What would be useful is if you could tell me how to get 2 values

.td-post-content
.tdb_single_content

into the field Alternative Restrictive Handling field shown at 2. in https://zeen101.helpscoutdocs.com/article/72-caching-with-leaky-paywall-i-e-wp-engine

Some sort of code to separate and make both values recognised? Then the paywall would recognise the 2 principle content containers I am using.

Thanks

Ok, Vlad, thanks.

By the way – please put forward the idea of creating a chargeable tagDiv paywall plugin – I’m sure there’d be demand.

See what leading newspapers such as the Times London, Daily Telegraph, New York Times etc are using.

I think the Newspaper theme badly needs this option.
