Unique articles and Block in the widget area

Posted in: Newspaper

Another bug I guess. Unique articles is a great feature and is one of the reasons I purchased this theme. However, if you set your homepage (or any page) like the demo did, with a block in the widget area to show latest posts, when you enable Unique articles, the LATEST block will be empty. Same in the tagdiv slide widget.
Of course you can use WP native Recent Post widget without problem.
I am not sure if any switch I should use?

Hi,
I can’t replicate your bug, can you give me access to your WordPress to see the issue.
Send us via email at contact@tagdiv.com write in message title FOR MARIUS and paste a link from this conversation.

Thanks!

Well, I only tested in localhost/XAMPP.
You could replicate this very easily:
1)add a number on each post title, by posted date and time;
2)enable “Unique Article”
3)put a block in widget area with “Latest Posts”.
The “Latest Posts” block should show the number 1,2,3,4,5 post (if you set the limit to 5), right?
Thanks for your attention.

Hi,
The unique feature apply to the whole page, this mean you will have unique article on the entire page, no duplicated posts in homepage, sidebars, footer or anywhere.

As you can see in our video you will see that the unique feature will remove the duplicated article that is on slide, on content and on sidebar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWKo1zKA8Jg

If you wave a slide with latest 5 article and on sidebar a block with latest 5 article, the first 5 article on the slide will be display and on sidebar will continue with 6th post.

Hope you understand how is work.
Thanks!

Hi, I am afraid we have some misunderstanding here.
I thought I understand how it works before I read your post.
Just like you show me on the features page here:

the unique Article system should work on the entire page, but NOT including the sidebar(s), at least if I want. So I thought there will be an option, including or excluding the block, but there is not.
That really does not make sense to me if I put a block on sidebar widget area with the title “Latest News”, but actually it shows, say, number 36-40 posts. I hope you understand what I mean.
Thank you.

I guess I need more luck with this theme. My issue is ignored, obviously. Or you guy really think that it is not a bug, just the way it works? and you won’t do anything about this? If it’s true, please let me know asap, and I need to change my plan a bit. Thanks.

Hi,
Is not an issue, the Unique feature apply on the entire page including sidebars, like I’ve mentioned above. We can’t exclude the sidebar because of that theme structure.

If you use the offset feature http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=–jQZbzteU4 this will fit your needs?

Thanks!
