Custom Post Type Issue with Footer Page

Hi, just thought to bring this up to let you folks know about certain issues.
I KNOW you don’t support third party plugins…but perhaps this issue might be of concern to you nonetheless since maybe something else (which I don’t know about) might be getting messed up as well.

When selecting a page to be shown for the Footer my CPT posts get screwed up. Only reason I bothered with using a page for a footer is because I had to do so after deactivating the Standard Pack since it deactivation doesn’t allow use of the native footer.

Noticed the problem was still there after re-activating the Standard Pack…then I realized it was due to the use of a page for the footer. That is, regardless of whether I used a page created by myself or one used from the cloud.

Thanks and hoping this might help improve things for Newspaper use.

Hi,

What do you mean by “getting messed up” the cpt appear in your footer page too, or after it ? please provide some more details.

Thank you!

Hey Calin, thanks for the reply.

below is a screenshot of my cpt. It’s an event page from All In One Calendar.

When selecting a footer page, That circled part ends up repeating itself just above the footer as if it’s part of the footer. I say that since it spans the entire page (stretched across the width just like the footer).

As a solution, instead of choosing a global footer, I created one within my cloud template and then used CSS to hide your “© Newspaper WordPress Theme by TagDiv” that appears at the bottom of my CPT pages.

BUT, it’d be nice if the above problem was fixable.

Thanks

Hi,

From what I fond the the plugin that you are using will set the shortcode where will find a specific code for content, using a footer page the content will be display two times, first for the actual posts/page and second time for the footer page, indeed this is not very good, I’ve made a note to our developers for this situation.
Unfortunately for the moment the only solution is to use custom css to hide it.

Thank you for your understanding and sorry for the inconvenience!
