Generally you should not have duplicate content.
However, you can simply copy the post meta field manually from old content to the new post.

So, if old one had 390, then copy that (or type it) in the post meta box at bottom of post (aka “custom fields”).

What version are you using now ?

Make sure you’re using the latest version included with your current version of Newspaper. You can also download the latest “all files” from ThemeForest, to get “almost latest’ version of VC, which is tested to work with theme.

Make sure images are optimized; make sure enough RAM allocated; see the theme docs > tutorials on how to speed up site; test post on GTmetrix.com to ensure your server optimized, WordPress optimized, etc.

Always good to check forum for the plugin to see current known issues with wp and compatibility issues.

Are the sizes turned on in the modules images section of theme panel?

Lots of solutions in google for the already sent headers problem in wordpress… might not apply to you, but common issue in wp.. worth checking

Are you including http in your urls?

Install via ftp, better way to do it if your system times out.

See the tutorials DIY section of the theme docs, including my long winded tutorial in the ‘best of forums’ sub section.

Leverage browser caching is mission critical, and part of your website setup; not part of theme.

Some fixes are simple; but also the GTMetrix test of a post, shows ‘examples’ of how to fix stuff.

Try the theme tutorials here, first, though if you want 🙂

I think wordpress “category” goes by lowest ID number or alpha number for primary as default.

Did you switch on the ajax counter function?

WP Super Cache recommended:

Yep, so go look at the CSS used for a ‘page’ in Newspaper.

Use Chrome F12 to highlight the block of the paragraphs, find the class name for the page content without padding wrapper, and that is class to target along with paragraph.

Or, wait for TagDiv to help you. But good to learn to do some stuff like this on your own, for “control” of making your own mods.

Good luck!

While waiting for tagdiv, try using the F12 console ‘inspector’ in Chrome to highlight the section of text to see the CSS ‘classes’ for that.

I also will be doing this on Newsmag, which I just figured out would be this:

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

No idea; I don’t work here; and don’t use child themes anymore for anything 😉

I don’t think so. Problem is, WordPress ‘free’ version has no such options as it still thinks its a blogging platform and not news portal platform.

On our main bsuiness siote, We ended up using NavXT breadcrumbs plugin with ‘order bender’ add-on to select primary category when a story is in multiple categories like books, finance, california, san francidso, and we want ‘books’ as primary.

I found in most cases for woo, you need to add filter hooks to the main functions.php file … but that may be wrong answer here as I’m not on latest version of Newspaper; only latest version of Newsmag which is different.

What are you choosing “primary category” with ? Yoast?

That only works with Yoast breadcrumbs, I believe.

Post view counters not reset on install, but use custom post meta field for views. Your existing view count field not removed. If you have existing view count field, simply put that field name in the view count includes file. We did this by changing theme field to our existing post meta field ‘views’ to increment existing field and keep existing reads.

Technically, a sub-category is always a secondary category in most schema as it’s the second port in the crumb trail.

Maybe an example of the two pages might be useful here?

We basically add the shortcode into the actual header template, or post template where we want it.

If you change core files, you need to re-apply them when you update to new theme version.

You can also export custom code box to a text file; or all customizations to a text file.

Similarly your home page built with VC, you can copy/paste the text shortcodes to a text file.

At least this is what I do 🙂

Yes; this is why we completely disable XMLRPC on our system. We had this happen a couple of times in 2012 and whacked the entire system.

we add this at bottom of .htaccess on all our sites (Apache)

<IfModule mod_alias.c>
RedirectMatch 403 /xmlrpc.php
</IfModule>

and delete this from header.php

<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo( 'pingback_url' ); ?>" />

So, on the home page you can add your own text boxes with content … theme cannot invent content for you.

So, in our case, for example we have a text box with h1 tag which is short description of what the site is about.

Above certain news sections we have h2 tags on sub-heads “Book Reviews”…

You don’t need <h3> tags on ‘headlines’ on front page as they are ephemeral and have no SEO value; only persistent elements.

SO, if you use Visual Composer or TD composer, simply experiment with adding your own content.

[slider———-][sidebar]
[text box with h1]
[block of stories]
[text box with h2]

Really up to YOU to decide how you want to lay out, design, and create your site content.

Good luck!
