WordPress can’t enlarge images by default; not a theme issue.

We use the ‘thumbnail upscale’ plugin here, which works for making smaller pix larger.

Try that 🙂

Categories can have multiple pages if your meta data is properly done to show page 2, page 3, page 4. Etc.

We have a 16 year old news portal with 100+ pages in some categories, like “California” or “software news” … and no issues.

The use of proper canonical tags, pretty permalinks, and title/description clearly including page numbers is the simple solution. There are tutorials on how to do this, or simply use the recommended YOAST SEO plugin.

Folks often have sub-category pages like

space shuttle > museum photos
space shuttle > liftoffs
space shuttle > in space

etc.

Not sure that helps – just food for thought in that multiple pages don’t hurt seo if meta data properly setup. 🙂

Also note that this does not help SEO as h2 is normally used for persistent page elements like secondary headlines for the page, and h3 for section heads and sidebars and news heads which are often superceded over time by newer content and will no longer be on the home page.

h2 is better for section heads like

BOOK NEWS

and h3 for the story titles

My Book Review Title is Awesome

you may have special needs for doing that, but there will be no SEO benefit for changing them.

I think somebody did a tutorial in the docs > DIY tutorials > best of forums

You might look at NAVXT breadcrumbs which we use on our main website where we needed customization options.

You can hire a programmer to help you. Or perhaps a kind soul might be able to help if the docs I provided link to don’t make any sense. The link tells you how to do it !

You can’t if it’s gone – as far as I know.

You could possibly look at one of your pages on archive.org, view source, and copy your old custom code from the head section. I had to do this for a client once 🙂

Just ignore it. TagDiv tried to suppress that, but WP Bakery folks keep changing way that works.

Theme doesn’t control moving your website.

Best to follow the explicit instructions found on WordPress.org.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress

Also do search/replace in your mysql dbase as needed to update links and images, put explicit links to folder locations in your wp-config.php file etc.

Also good to increase memory to 96M in your wp-config.php file as it really really helps!

You still need to optimize your server setup, and follow the docs under tutorials for optimizing site speed.

Theme cannot optimize your hosting setup for thing like gzip/deflate, caching time to live, image compression, caching or server time to first byte.

If your server running nginx vs apache, i think you need to do that differently. Not theme specific.

Note, generally you cannot “copy” news from other sources for commercial purposes, like “stealing” RSS feeds from a Car website like Road&Track to populate your own news portal. There is difference between “news announcements” and “editorial content.” Meaning, you can generally copy press release content with proper attribution but you cannot “clone” articles from another website.

One option is using something like FeedWordPress to scrape “authorized” news systems, like Send2Press Newswire, where you can pull in content based on news announcements to your news portal, provided you keep the attribution.

For example, here are example RSS feeds which can be used to “pull” content dynamically into your site(s), unless you are selling a competing service which would violate the terms of use:
https://www.send2press.com/wire/rss-feeds-by-topic/

So for example “some” automotive news you could pull:
https://www.send2press.com/wire/automotive-news/feed/

In this particular example there is far more finance, technology, and entertainment news available from this source; but this is just one example.

Fyi,
here is the custom css I’m using to change size of fonts on the “pages” in Newsmag:

.td-page-content p{font-size:16px;line-height:1.6em;}

You don’t need to activate it. Activation only gives you support from the WP Bakery folks, which is not included with the bundled version.

Wordpress does not normally support comments on pages, only on posts. You will need custom programming or plugin to change that

Under basic wordpress settings.

You can make “jump links” using normal HTML; theme doesn’t control that.

Basically, if you read up on how HTML works you can create links like

Example:

<ul>
<li><a href="#jumplink1">Jump To Info On This Page</a></li>
</ul>

...

<div id="jumplink1"></div>
<h3>Here is the Info Jumped to</h3>
<p> blah blah blah </p>

Basic HTML; many tutorials on web on how to do basic stuff like this.

If not what you’re asking, apologies.

GoDaddy support also a great way to get help with your caching setup for WordPress.

Google generally follows the breadcrumbs how they actually appear on your posts.

So, you should make sure you have your breadcrumbs setup properly on the actual posts themselves. The theme cannot “control” specifically how Google displays anything.

Google also periodically messes with how things show up in SERPS, and sometimes this clears up in a while.

Sometimes your WP setup times out or has permissions issue due to hosting setup.

Try deleting the old theme via FTP or your admin filemanager from hosting setup.

FTP always best way to update themes to ensure all files updated properly!

I think it’s based on how popular a category is, based on number of posts per category.

You can just make your own text there of any type manually to say whatever you want. I think they just include this as an “if you don’t have anything else, try having this here …” sort of thing.

Issue with your WP install permissions or timeout.

Need to remove old folder via FTP or your hosting panel.

I’ve been using TagDiv themes for three years now, so pretty safe 🙂

Check system status panel in the theme control panel.

Make sure enough memory allocated to WordPress.

Consider simplifying number of modules used, types of queries, etc.

Consider turning some stuff off, like flyout “yuo might like,” “related posts” at bottom of pages, and use just ONE module/block type on sidebars; remove modules from footer, etc.

Make sure you’re using PHP 5.6x vs 5.4x, as 5.6x has opcache which helps.

If none of that does it — you can stop using pesky Visual Composer; and try the BETA TagDiv Composer (see sticky post top of forum) — which is simpler page builder and which we’re now using across our news network and no longer use VC for anything (as it is often the resource culprit every third version!).
