I guess I can try…but My small experience of getting theme own teams to work on their own theme is that they are the most expensive option and really only useful for corporate business employees who will not get sacked for employing the official developers if they do anything wrong, and also they are usually restricted by managers and owners who have other interests and partnerships that they want to promote before best advice… ie we only approve this plugin ect

turned off plugins, cleared every cache there is and it is the same: I,e, its Ok in safari, but chrome is not showing the latest posts on the homepage “feed” at the top of that page, also new comments are not showing up.

BTW have setup the site on a staging server to try and debug, but had no luck at all.

that is the code block that is showing on the homepage instead of the headline posts block? It is clearly the shortcode of that block? it does not look corupted ect

The main issues seem to be that banner ad managed by the theme are not really responsive (although you can use some code to offer different sizes) and one cant rotate multiple ads in one spot or get stats. making it hard to sell ads to clients.

I am looking for a plugin that can do that, some exist but they use shortcodes and the theme does not seem to really support 3rd party shortcodes in the page builder??

Re the business directory idea: I can run that under a subdomain so I don’t need to use newspaper at all, seems a bit sad to do it that way and probably not ideal for SEO.

Could anyone make a suggestion? Of a good one to try, rotatable banner ads are a very important part of running a news blog…

so what should I do, both on the site and for google? and can i still use the feature loading more content after first post or is this inadvisable for SEO or other reasons?

Photoboy

that does clear them, I guess the question is are they harmful to the way google indexes the site, they are nice from a UX perspective, maybe you should re work the feature so that the Urls make more sense to bots?

Had a look at my ananltics again and it seems that these pages are iframes created by the infinite scroll feature, ie they are extra posts that are displayed under the main posts, on the post page, they are displayed on a page that has a different URL to the post that they reference so google, never clogs that it is, displays them as the iframe that they are and the URL is that of the iframe. can anyone tell me if this is a good feature t have switched on?
