Hi, so I’m creating a website https://greennews.agency which is an online environment news agency in Thailand. And right now I’m going to need you guys to help me some of my issues here. Thanks.
1. I’ve just import an old articles from my previous wordpress’s website. It all coming up with a picture inside the story but not set as featured image for me. So is there an easy way to set the featured image for all of those articles?
2. Right now I’m using a mobile theme plugin. I actually like it, but it seems not stable yet. As you can see if you going in my website through mobile, the main menu tab “Story” didn’t have a drop-down menu. But in the main website it is a mega menu with a lot of sub. So how can I fix it.
P.S. But if it can’t fix, how do I disable the mobile theme (Didn’t see this option in theme panel)
3. I have a problem with block of content, which arrange by 7 days popular sorting. Before, it was showing good but right now it’s not. I don’t know what happens. And also I’m really confused with the system (the conflict between ajax view count and 7 days post sorting and cache plugin ~blah blah) So can you help me with it, let it work in a proper way.
4. Are there an easy way to create new author without creating new wordpress user? it’s too complex. (My work system is I’m going to have a plenty of writer who’s sent the articles to me. But it all have to upload by myself.)
P.S. I want the author system only to show who’s write this story, that’s it.
5. I’m creating a new page. And I really like the “style 6” of category template, that I use in almost every category. Can I also apply this to my new page too?
6. How to set the website default picture, which will shown when someone share my website via facebook or etc. (Right now it shown a random of recent articles picture)
Or you can also contact me through greennews@outlook.co.th for private support. Many thanks.
Hi,
1. Unfortunately you must set a fetured image for each of your articles – https://www.screencast.com/t/ChFny9gAY You can not set a featured image for all your posts at once. More information here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-image-or-video/
2. The Newspaper mobile theme is fully tested and expected to work properly if you choose to activate it – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ As for the mega menu it is not supposed to work on mobile, it is a feature just for desktop and only drop-down menu style is available. It is the same for the responsive version of the theme, if you choose not to use the mobile theme plugin. It can be deactivated just like any other plugin, in the plugins section – https://www.screencast.com/t/lmibpuez
3. Please follow this guide to set your 7 days sort order for your posts – https://forum.tagdiv.com/7-days-post-sorting/ And make sure you have post views enabled in theme panel, because this sort order is based on page views.
4. The theme uses the default wordpress user roles and capabilities – https://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities where you can create users and asign a role to them. You can set an author for each post in the post edit page – https://www.screencast.com/t/TsMBDbxZJ or in bulk – https://www.screencast.com/t/ybfu0yOgCx1 You could search for a plugin with these capabilities if you want.
5. You can create a page however you want using the Visual composer elements avilable – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/ Maybe what you are looking for your page is a homepage post – https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/homepage-one-top-post/
6. I do not understand what you mean by website default picture, users can share posts and the post image – https://forum.tagdiv.com/facebook-share/ Please provide more details if I am misunderstanding what you mean.
Thanks
Thanks a lot for your clarify, but there’re something I don’t understand it clearly so I’d like to ask you again a little bit more in each topics.
1. Is it really that hopeless? Aren’t there have such things like code or plugin that could solve it easier? Just make a first picture of each article into a featured image or something like that. It’d be much appreciate if you know a proper way to do it. Because I’m kind a fear to search for a code or plugin by myself without having someone who’s reliable recommend it to me.
(I have a huge amount of old articles added recently, it’s impossible to set all of these one by one. But if I’m not do something, these articles would show on my website with blank. And that would be horrible)
2. So the mobile theme menu will not show what inside mega menu right? Here’s the website menu – http://www.screencast.com/t/T2IByVUh1tx and the mobile menu – http://www.screencast.com/t/tF66hKFlcUP0 so my case here have to switch back to the non-mobile theme to show it properly, is that correct? And also the page that I’ve made – http://www.screencast.com/t/igogX9zLUC it will not show anything in mobile theme too?

3. So the 7 days sort order is forced to show post views on the article right? (At first I disable it because I thought it just on/off the number shown on article, but still counting in background)
4. Did you have any recommend plugin too?
5. This one is fine.
6. It is this – http://www.screencast.com/t/Te2VK1Hn the picture that would appear if someone share my homepage. And also the sub-head in no.2, where can I add them?
Many thanks.
Hi,
1. You could use the plugin recommended in this topic by Chris S – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/getty-images-plugin/ Give it a try and see how it goes.
2. Unfortunately not, the menu is limited to drop-down capabilities on mobile – https://www.screencast.com/t/PjRfeijrZ For the pages, you must enter your content in the mobile editor section – https://www.screencast.com/t/3TUtmys4 in order to be displayed on mobile when using the mobile theme plugin, as explained in the mobile theme guide provided above.
3. Yes the 7 days post sorting is based on page views, it will not work if this setting is disabled.
4. Unfortunately in this regard I have no recommendation, you will have to search for user role manager plugins and try a few of them out.
6. You can set a tagline and a site image like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/OhmMIeSHvb – https://www.screencast.com/t/0SGYXRVW
Thanks
Thanks for your help so far, now I only have one more ongoing problem that not solved yet.
6. I’ve set everything like you told https://www.screencast.com/t/nEnmTJAHBcyE but it’s still not change yet https://www.screencast.com/t/fZ0GCJrmp4I (the picture that appeared when sharing is still from a random article, the one that change in option look more like a favicon. and also the tagline that not appeared)
And one more thing about sharing. Why my article not like anyone else when it been shared. (like this https://www.screencast.com/t/NoV75AlX3z) it’s a headline in 1st row and more content in 2nd row right? But mine is headline both rows https://www.screencast.com/t/ltuq9bryJY
Thank you very much
Hi,
Sorry for misunderstanding, you must install the WordPress SEO by Yoast plugin, and configure it using this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/facebook-share/ You can find more information here – https://yoast.com/social-media-optimization-with-yoast-seo/
Thanks
