Missing Features and Bug Report 1

Thanks for NewsPaper the awesome theme that decorates Owl Reporter but it got some bugs im reporting them here
Google has introduced new responsive link ads, they are being incorrectly parsed by newspaper theme

<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<!-- Responsive Link 1 -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:block"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-xxxx"
     data-ad-slot="xxxx"
     data-ad-format="link"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>

Here is an example of responsive link ads, but they are being parsed as display ads its violating google adsense terms, its better to have an option to omit auto parsing of google ads

When adding a youtube featured video post (Post type 11) its unable to pre define a featured image its is being automatically downloaded how to skip it ? the default images with videos are not so good, that is why its better to use different featured images for video posts
Even if a featured image is set on publishing it is being automatically changed, the post have to be re edited to set the custom featured image

Unnecessary button
In post sharing official tweet button at last is unnecessary why have two tweet buttons? instead of it add google +1 button

Hello,

1) There seems to be a problem with this type of ads. We will try a better implementation for this ad type in a future version of our theme. Until then you can follow this topic to see how you can ad a workaround for it:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/responsive-adsense-link-units/

2)Unfortunately the theme does not have an option for this, but it can be done by editing this file like so: http://screencast.com/t/B0eJMZYO0Iht

3) Unfortunately the tweet button had a tweet counter to it so it incremented the tweets of the post. Twitter recently removed the tweet count form their website and so the second twitter option became a static twitter share button. This can be removed if you want from here: http://screencast.com/t/tTxmxrmlsTvr

I hope this helps.
Thank you!

There are four questions in the topic?

I think Q 4 answer is because “theme is setup that way.” Doing a query by both would add a lot of overhead for every page load to search TWO different tables. At least that was what I understood.

You could likely hack the function file for that to modify the loop to query BOTH tables in the dbase.

Also, most posts are in a “category” with “tags” being additional fodder, such as

cat = books
tag = nonfiction

since all nonfiction items would also be in books, a bit redundant for most folks.

I would likely presume category to be a macro search and tag to be a micro search.

Just some thoughts on that you didn’t ask for 😉

Hello,
Sorry I missed the last question. Chris is right as we did not consider this to be of relevance for the related articles field. (Thank you Chris).
