Thanks for the precise response.
Can you help me understand the distinction between breadcrumbs added as shortcode using td-composer and the Yoast breadcrumbs?
Because in the end, what you want is to provide your users with a quick way to navigate through webpages, to superficially understand the site structure and the relevant schema-markup to be added in the code for associated property. Td-composer seems to be injecting the breadcrumb schema into code just fine. How could Yoast breadcrumbs be more beneficial when it produce the exact same end result?

It’s been 267 days since this issue was pinned down, nearly 3/4 of a year.
Has the developer team abandoned the idea of fixing or attending to this bug? As I see, it’s still persistent.
Why?

Thanks for the follow-up, Calin.
Hope the update releases as soon as possible.
Good day.

Take it easy, bruh. Take a deep breath.
I am not asking you to find the code which is responsible for this. But, you can’t say that this is how it should work, as you said in the first line because you don’t know anything about UI and UX. So better dry up.

Also,
That is not an ask for the custom work. I’ll explain why.
The developers should educate the support staff about the basic stuff. If someone says that they want to disable the live search, they only want to stop the requests being sent to the server to prevent overuse but still want to have the animation and everything else as it was earlier. Simple. That is an easy and obvious assumption to be considered by developers. So they should teach the support staff about things like that.

But developers tried to solve this problem by giving users a feature to disable live search from the panel. But while solving a problem, they destroyed the user experience and compromised the feel and convenience. Now, this is not support-staff’s fault. Everybody knows this already. But what support staff can do instead of getting mad at customers is to give feedback to developers so that they can provide a solution or at least know that what they did is not much liked.

And if support staff is not allowed to ask for help from developers, then how can they help customers because they know nothing about coding and design.

If you believe that this is how search should work, then please see the Salient theme. It also has a non-ajax search, but the user doesn’t have to leave the page to type in the search box. Why shouldn’t it work like this? I know it’s not your job. But this post should be shown to the developers because they’re trying to get away and avoiding the tough work. Because removing the ajax feature while still keeping the animation would’ve required a lot of code modifications in the javascript that they don’t want to go through. So they just did a little copy-pasting, which was comparatively pretty simple.

I love this theme. And that’s why it’s upsetting me that developers didn’t think about customer’s expectations. When you work so hard to make your customers fall in love with your company and your work, you avoid doing stupid things that can make them hate you.
Either do it well or don’t do it at all.

Nah man!

That’s not even nearly good.

1: I don’t want “Here are the results for the search:” text and “VIEW ALL RESULTS” button either. But they’re still there but only on the amp.

Now you’d say that’s impossible because that button is used to view the results. Right?

It doesn’t freakin work with Go or Search button on user’s phone keyboard. Right?
But why? Why am I not able to search articles pressing the Search or Go button on my phone’s keyboard?

What if I want to delete that ugly “VIEW ALL RESULTS” button? And I want that deleted.

2: Another problem that you ignored perhaps due to ignorance. This time I will write that with emphasis so you get that completely into your head:—

WHEN. WE. TYPE. A. LETTER. IN. SEARCH. BAR. IT. SENDS. AJAX. REQUEST(GET). TO. THE. SERVER. TO. GET. RESULTS.

The above problem not only happens when we type but also when we change cursor position(only mobile not amp).
I checked that on desktop with inspect elements using arrow keys.

This is a waste of server resources and put extra load on it. I don’t want any ajax results to show, so it should not send any request.

Problem 1 is only with mobile theme. Problem 2 is with both amp and mobile theme.

Here’s a screenshot for text and button, and for the ajax requests.

Also Note: In mobile theme every time we type or change cursor position, request is sent but on amp theme if you type 5 letters quickly at once it will only send 1 request and 5 if type them slowly with a difference of 1 second or perhaps even less.
So if after typing 5 letters rapidl, if you type one more letter it will send one more request totalling 2.

The change in cursor position sends request only on mobile not amp. To test this, open inspect element and render mobile theme. Open networks tab in inspect window(it could be different for macOS), you will see when you type in search bar a request is sent and when you change cursor with arrow keys, another request is sent. That’s a lot of complaints.. Hope you have a solution.

Please show this to developers and tell them to buy a good course from Coursera. Udacity is also good.

Have a nice day,
You do a great job.
Pratiek.

My guess is—you didn’t understand the issue.

To address the mentioned issue, there’s nothing you’d be needing my website login credentials for.

Everything’s fine with my website. It’s just a theme update that I didn’t like and want to keep old functionality that would require little tweak with the code.

It’s a simple task. You just have to tell me which part of the code do I have to modify.

I kindly request you to hand this issue over to Calin.

I’ve really had a bad experience with you the last few times.

Prateek

The problem still persists. Would it require my website admin credentials in order to be solved/inspected? Or would my website link be enough?

I am also using a number for placeholder travel and haven’t set it to 0. In my case it’s set to 50.
This is the why it’s working fine for you but not for me:—
You are using the search feature through search icon and when you click on the icon, the search bar automatically gets focused as you can see in the screenshot you sent. In my case I am not using the search icon but the full width search bar in the main menu (Screenshot), So when I search something, it works fine but when I click anywhere else on the screen, the placeholder comes back because the focus is removed but it should not work like this(Screenshot). In your case the searchbar on the search page looks fine, because you’re not using any placeholder for that. Try to use placeholder for the search bar and you’ll see the issue I am talking about.

Happy to know that developers are taking these things into considerations. Hoping for the best.
And, thanks a lot for the help and good news.
Have a good day.
The link you referred to me is of great help.

Thanks Calin, for the reply.
1) Would you also suggest changing the text size unit from px to em because if I set it at 20px it will be same for both 1080p and 4k screens which isn’t a good thing in my opinion. It will look good on 1080p screens but on 4k it’d look extremely small because of the high resolution of the display.

2) In relation to the last line of the first paragraph, does browser scaling work on desktops as well as it does on mobile devices. I mean will 1px be of same width for both 1080p and 4k displays or would it scale up for the 4k just like it does in mobile phones. For example, 16px font would look good on 5inch 100dpi screen but for the same physical dimension of the screen (5inch) with more dpi, say 400, 16px would look very small. But it doesn’t happen since the browser takes the 1px of dimension differently for both screens, i.e., the 100dpi and the 400dpi, and scale it up accordingly. Do you have any idea about whether or not this is valid for desktops as well?

3) Can you do me a favor? If anyone in your staff owns a 4k laptop/desktop or macbook air/pro(new models), can you send a screenshot of the Gossip Pro demo and one full width demo here since I don’t own any such device? More than the theme width, I am worried about the font sizes. They’re very hard to scale up for 4k when the optimum limit of breakpionts is 1141px.

So, does it mean if I choose 1400px it will leave more than 2000px on sides as margin? Then why did you people have set the row width to 1200 and 1400 for most of your demos? Don’t you want to have these demos look great on 4k displays as well? Or do you think that only a few people own 4k displays so they can be ignored which is insane if it’s the case.

Please tell me if you can in one simple line, what do I have to do so that my website opens correctly on 4k displays as well?

Oh really? Then show me how would you set radius on the individual module in flex block 4? Also flex block 4 only shows 2 articles in the larger module the rest are just displayed under them. Please read my query again and THINK what I meant.
What I want is display articles in a masonry grid and set radius and background to individual modules and filter them with categories. See this screenshot. I used post loop for this example but the problem is I can’t filter posts based on categories, it will fetch all the latest posts. I don’t know why you showed me the example of flex block 4 with border. When did I ask for the border?

It’s not just about the images, it’s about entire website. Will my website open and look good on a 4k screen because all the template in the cloud library are having maximum width of row set to 1200px, 1400px or so? Will it look and open the same way on a 4k display as it does on a 1080p or normal screen?

Hi again, DecentralBox.

I also see the subfooter with newspaper branding while editing the footer template(page). But it doesn’t load in the frontend. I checked it by using the View Source functionality provided by browser.
Just copy the default footer copyright content, that is, Newspaper WordPress Theme by TagDiv and then go to the homepage of your website, use view source, press Ctrl+F and paste the copied text. You won’t find anything which means that part is not loaded.

Hope it helps.

You can tell me if there’s any doubt.

Hi, DecentralBox.

Let me help you out.

I understand what you mean. Had the same problem and figured it out somehow.

You first have to create a template for the footer (import a footer template from the cloud library). Customize it according to your taste. You’ll notice that the footer template that you created will be moved into the pages section unlike other template that remain in the Cloud Template section.
Now go to the theme panel and in the footer section select the footer template(page) you created from the footer page dropdown. Save changes. You done. I faced some issues while saving changes don’t know why but I solved it by selecting an actual page (about/contact/etc), clicking on the edit footer page button and coming back and selecting the footer page template. It just worked.

Now if you’re using the mobile theme also (with or without amp), the footer template wouldn’t work on the mobile theme. For this, you have to activate the standard pack. After activating choose the a footer option or subfooter option (if you need one) from the theme panel. Save the changes. then go to mobile theme section select the footer menu and save changes again. Finally disable the standard pack. That’s it.

Hope you understand. You can DM on insta (@prtksng) if you have any doubt.

I can’t help you much with the telegram thing. In cloud library templates some icons are missing (stumble upon in my case). So what I did was used the icons module instead of social media and the copy pasted the icons for all the social media profiles and then changed the links and icons.

Hey hey hey,
Wait. You got me wrong.
If I want to display 100 posts I don’t want to copy tens of times and change the offset posts every single time. What are you doing man?

I just want one module displaying all the posts in this style. Just like flex block 1. Hope you understand this time.

Pity if you don’t have this option.

This theme lacks so many important features.

For example, hamburger menu for the desktop like in buzzfeed, social share counter, showing ads in post loops after a set interval, buttons in mobile menu, tooltips, accordion, even basic js validation for subscription form, GDPR toolkit, carasoul, modals and the list goes on.

However, I’m pleased by the customer service and the way this theme supports customization.

That’s why I think it’s good to tell businesses what we customers want. So take is as a healthy feedback and try to add features in next updates that are supposed to be there in a news website like share counter, js form validation, hamburger menu for desktop, gdpr toolkit like avada, etc. Do let your developers team know about this.

Have a great day.

Are you using Cloudflare CDN? It can help in a lot of ways.

A CDN might not give you the best score in the test results but the actual speed of the website will be improved since it delivers the content from the server closest to you users and from where the request is made.

Hi Simon,

The code for the amp analytics, provided by Google, looks like this.

{
  "vars" : {
    "gtag_id": "<GA_MEASUREMENT_ID>",
    "config" : {
      "<GA_MEASUREMENT_ID>": { "groups": "default" }
    }
  }
}

It’s different from the one you mentioned as an example in the screenshot. There is no account property but gtag property instead in vars object. There’s a lot of difference. Which code should I use? Please help me out.

One more thing, I am using a different property to track amp traffic. Which url should I use? domain.com or domain.com/?amp

Hi, team tagDiv,

After the update, commenting the code on line 57 in td_ajax_mobile.php, as suggested by Calin in the his first reply(pls see screenshot), wasn’t working. It was not disabling the live search on mobile theme. So I commented the entire code(entire page). Is there anything that this code is responsible for other than live search on mobile theme. Or is it Ok if I comment the entire code.
Please let me know.
Thanks

Hi, printing3d.
I’d be happy if I could help.

I am using WP rocket because only WP rocket provides the option of caching for mobile devices and separate cache files for mobile devices. Please use WP rocket and enable this option.

I noticed that cloudflare wasn’t responsible for this issue in the first place.

Also I use SiteGround as my hosting provider. They enabled the static cache from their end when I bought the hosting.

Since I am using WP rocket for caching I disabled both static and dynamic cache from SiteGround caching tool.

If your hosting provides caching functionality, disable static and dynamic cache that is provided by the hosting and use Wp rocket with the mobile option that I mentioned above.

You can enable the memcache in your hosting if they provide this option. Even without this, you are good to go.

If you need any further help, don’t hesitate. Reply with your issue and I’ll reply back for sure with what I know.

Good Luck.
