Huge error log after updating and reinstalling previous version

Did update to 8 and than back to newspaper 7.8.1

I have problems with google rankings, most rankings have dropped dramatically and views have gone down to zero.
here’s what my sitemap.xml looks like: lovinit.org/sitemap.xml — it’s blank and I’m unable to get it to work properly. Reinstallation of the All in One SEO plugin doesn’t help.

Did you also revert your DB back to the version saved prior to doing the NP 8 update in your PHP / MySQL panel ? This is likely useful in this case.

Nope.

Didn’t do it.

What kind of entries from mysql do I need to remove?

I make like 20-30 posts per day. so I would lose 300+ posts with that period…

Ah, I thought perhaps you’d done a proper dbase update prior to installing new theme.

That way if your dbase got messed up or something you could revert back, and revert back your theme to prior version, which would put everything back “as it was” prior to new theme update.

I don’t work here; but that’s what I do.

Obviously make sure you disable all extra plugins, caching, clear caching; only use Visual Composer -or- TD Composer *not both* with new theme. Any ‘hacks’ you made to core files in 7x might have to be redone/changed for v8, etc.

I need help.

Will the fresh WordPress install help?

Hi,

It seems you have some aggressive ad system present on your website. Clicking anywhere on the page is redirecting to a difficult to close tab, while also opening other ads in tabs

You could reinstall WordPress and the theme, and uninstall all other plugins except what is provided in the theme package.
Or scan with malware detection tools to see if there are any problems detected. More useful suggestions by Chris here

Do you still see that aggressive ad system?

Thanks!

Hi,

You seem to have resolved the ad problem. I had no problem browsing the website, and no errors are present as well.

Thanks
