Christopher is a long time WordPress user. Anything else you need to know is private ;-) I *do not* work for TagDiv, but I've been using their themes since late 2013.

If using PHOTON, disable it. If using Smush-it, adjust settings. usual fix.

Did you try simply placing into a text box widget in sidebar?

Always best way to test if the code you’re using actually works or not.

At least that’s what I do.

Well, Yoast has updated their layout a little bit … but you still need to “explore” the settings in YOAST SEO. You have option to turn “features” on/off, so some things won’t work until you turn those “features” on. See the Yoast SEO help site for info on how to use it.

But yes, when the social options are live, you have option to enable OG data (open graph data). You can also make changes per post for the Yoast SEO box on each post.

Note, by default I think you need to be logged in as the superuser/admin in YOAST.

but again, I use it on all our sites for many years, and works great.

Note TagDiv does not make the Yoast SEO plugin, so obviously good to review the help/support on YOAST website and for the plugin support forum.

But YES, once you set it up properly, there is option to turn Open Graph options “on.” 🙂

(Just “go exploring” all the tabs and options in the plugin to see what to do next.)

Yoast SEO is popular free plugin, with options to set/control OG and FB meta data globally and on per-post basis.

Looks like your server isn’t setup to run long enough to upload the theme via the theme panel.

So, you either need to increase your timeout settings in your theme panel, or spend a little time learning to use FTP, as it’s the only way to 100% manage a WordPress site, and fix issues when you run into problems, need to do backups, remove busted/stuck plugins, or have install issues unrelated to the theme – as you’re having now.

You can try to first ask your hosting provider to increase the ‘timeout’ for processes and PHP processes to at least 200 seconds. Also check you have at least 64M allocated to WordPress/php in your wp-config.php file and also in your hosting php setup.

only you can manage these issues.

Yes, looks like you need to spend some time optimizing your site/server setup!

See the theme docs/tutorials for some tips on how to speed up your website regardless of theme.

You can also ‘test’ one of your posts with GTMetrix.com to get some specifics on stuff like caching, time to live, gzip compression, image compression, doing a manual minify of your style.css, etc.

Probably need to look for a paid commercial plugin which creates accounts, and allows you to sell access based on time (week, month, year).

Simplest thing is to re-upload the header.php file from the download zip file.

Probably need to hire developer, or try editing the style.css file for the main containers.

Find them via view source for the page layouts, and also use F12 in Chrome to inspect CSS elements.

If none of that makes sense, you would need to hire somebody to hack the CSS for you.

Theme doesn’t have a “full width” template, that I know of, and doesn’t advertise having one.

If you don’t want to use the built-in breadcrumbs, I can highly recommend the NAVXT breadcrumbs plugin. Lots of customization options, filters, etc.

simchris

Basic HTML; many tutorials online for creating “jump links” …

(never hurts to invest in a basic HTML book either!)

e.g.,

<a href="#jumptomiddle">JUMP to middle</a>

<p id="jumptomiddle">This is my paragraph in middle of page I want to jump to. </p>

Hope that helped!

Delete plugin ?

Turn off ability for core files to be edited by WordPress via functions.php.

Check your home page template.

Check your functions.php file for something added to it by plugin.

Delete any entry added to your MySQL dbase by the plugin.

Resave permalinks, clear cache; clear transients with WP-Optimize.

Visual Composer only updated when theme updated. It cannot be updated separately unless you buy a license with WP-Bakery. Just ignore the update nag.

simchris
tagDiv Member

Check error log.

Make sure you have at least 96M allocated to WP in both your php settings on hosting account *and* in your WP-Config.php file.

Resave permalinks. Clear transients with WP-OPTIMIZE

Use the DUPLICATOR plugin. Best way to do it properly, as it will update dbase at new location with the new names/links, etc.

simchris

Theme doesn’t have an RSS plugin, as far as I know.

Again, plenty of plugins out there if you go look. You need to test them, see which one does what you want. That’s how plugins work. Not every plugin does same thing, some are simpler to use, some are updated more often, etc. Usually you can
a) look at number of installed versions
b) look at when last updated, compatibility with current WP version
c) check the support form for plugin for any gotchas, like “breaks WooCommerce” or whatever.

Welcome to WordPress!

Theme doesn’t control that at all to the permalinks. Best to ‘google’ that as it’s part of WordPress core.

e.g.,
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17798815/remove-category-tag-base-from-wordpress-url-without-a-plugin

I think for second item, just edit the ‘tag’ loop in the page template(s).

Try testing one of your post pages with GTMetrix.com as this can help you fix many of your server setup issues. Caching plugin is done *last* not first.

simchris

Did you ask the people who make the plugin why it doesn’t work with WordPress?

Did you check your error log for errors?

Has the plugin been updated in last 2 years or less to work with current version of WordPress?

Does your server have the needed elements needed to import RSS feeds, like cURL or similar?

( I don’t work here – just some feedback )

Best to use a plugin to manage the open graph data for Twitter (eg., Yoast SEO, or similar).

Check your meta data with ‘view source’ to check all the needed open graph data is actually there.

simchris
tagDiv Member

Probably need to check the Cloudflare support, as that is not theme related.

simchris

I think the default RSS widget comes with WordPress, not the theme.

There are many great RSS widgets plugins to look at, as best option if you don’t want to edit the one included with WordPress with filters/styles.

Best to look at the WordPress.org plugin repository for custom ‘widgets’ that can be used.

If you’re asking about a Visual Composer element, that’s something entirely different, and I have no idea.

Probably good to check your site security, and reset all passwords. Themes cannot “change themselves” overnight without somebody doing something, or some “automatic update” to some other thing breaking your site. (I base this on using WP since 2005.)

It’s possible your hosting provider had some breakdown, and went to a prior day backup.

Only option there is to recreate all your changes. Also, remember to make backups of all custom CSS and do regular dbase exports (from WP tools) after major changes for safekeeping. I copy out my custom changes to theme panels into a text file, so anything I did by hand in style boxes, or sidebars can easily be redone. Also, ‘export’ the custom styles/setting from theme to text file as well (from theme panel).

Auto Post Thumbnail PRO works perfectly with theme, btw. We use it on 20 sites and have since TagDiv started in business (the paid version from ThemeForest, vs the free version on the WordPress.org plugin repo).

Weird, I’m not seeing that issue in my browser with Chrome

Version 58.0.3029.96 (64-bit)

I am getting some errors, but common with YouTube:

I “suspect” it’s from the code injected by Facebook or Soundcloud which are loading in your sidebar.
