OK, that worked. Thanks.

It’s very odd that the widget blocks don’t filter out the post you’re currently on. What you currently can end up with is the post you’re viewing appearing on the sidebar, which just looks silly. This suggestion seemed to be to prevent that, which seems like a good idea? (Essentially a validation of not showing/skipping the post being viewed)

I am also interested to learn if Newspaper is considered to be inefficient as this sounds like it might be bloated?

I have actually noticed a bigger problem experimenting further.

Enabling retina for the custom size does not seem to have the desired effect, as explained. However, it also seems to make the image load at 1068×712, not 1068×600, which is the default aspect ratio for the full width image.

Is there some additional file I should be changing when adding a custom size so that it works for retina?

Hello,

Thank you for your first reply. Unfortunately, it has only half answered my question.

I have went through the theme files that you have highlighted and added code. This works on the themes in which the td-module-meta-info is in the loop file (e.g. loop-single-1, loop-single-5).

But, for those where the meta information is in the single template files instead (e.g. single_template_3, single_template_6), it has no effect. The code is stripped by the theme. If I add plain text in the same spot, it will display, but the code acts as if it was never added.

This is the section after additional code:

<div class="td-module-meta-info">
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_author();?>   <?php if ( get_the_author_meta( 'twitter' ) ) : ?>
" class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="false">Follow @<?php the_author_meta( 'twitter', $author_id );?><script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_date(false);?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_comments();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_views();?>

Given this code does not seem to impact the website, I am not sure that it is in fact correctly added in this location for these templates. Is there an additional file for the meta information of that section for those layouts?

Please note that I am not asking for customisation and while I may not be a developer, I am clearly competent enough to have got this far. However, I cannot see which other files would be correct to add code for templates 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12 and 13.

The theme sharing buttons are not the same thing as they are to share a post, not to follow the author with the Twitter button.

I hope as a new customer that you will be able to provide a further pointer. 🙂
