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.

Some people want image pages.
I think you can also force image pages to load to their parent from a setting in YOAST SEO, also.

btw, one thing I found helped a lot in moving from http to https for other gremlins, was adding the explicit site URL info to your wp-config.php file. Won’t help with CORS/fonts stuff, but some other oddities.

Note – the scroll top top does not work on certain mobile devices, such as iPad portrait … I noticed this on couple of sites we have, regardless of theme.

In theory, one solution is to edit the footer or wherever that [top] button is, and change it to something like this:
old a href=#ttop
a href="<?php get_permalink(); ?>" target="_top"

have not yet tried that …

You need to get a plugin for Facebook comments. See the WordPress.org plugins repository for possible choices.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=wordpress+comments

And Google is great resource for learning to use WP:

See the post settings in the theme panel – you may also find the theme docs/tutorials helpful. See link right side of page >>>

or here:

simple on/off toggles in the post panel in theme settings.

I think it waits 48 hours to “nag’ you to register 🙂

Probably need to look at the available free and commercial plugins that offer that. Try the wordpress.org plugins repository first to see what is there to test for your particular site. 🙂

Also, various plugins like “thumbnail upscale” can help when you regenerate your thumbs to “enlarge, crop, fit” … which might help.

Apologies for my useless and unhelpful reply to your original question!

Try checking with your hosting provider or check the plugins you’re using.

That is not part of this theme.

simchris

Why not ask the folks who make the plugin for help? They usually have a help forum on the wordpress.org repository where you got the plugin from.

Problems with plugin not specifically theme related.

Try checking your site with GTmetrix.com as they give you much better “what to do” help for your site to fix speed issues.

Do search in forum as this has been covered numerous times the past 2 years.

Hopefully admin will add a quick tutorial for this in the help section at some point.

Basically create a text box in a row/column or in sidebar on home page and wrap short description of site in H1 tag, then style that as needed with custom CSS in the custom CSS box in theme panel.

There is no option in WordPress to do this.

I had same issue in moving one of our websites, and found the “Auto Post Thumbnail PRO” plugin on Envato/Themeforest/Codecanyon — which will take first image from post, or fallback image, and auto assign that to be ‘featured.’

Very old themes used to use a featured image ‘field’ in the post. But couple of years back WordPress added the featured image option — this is not part of this theme, it’s part of WordPress. So the “modern standard way” to assign which image should be feautured, such as for social media OG tags, and for thumbs, is to specify which image in a post is featured.

Speedbooster is a plugin included with theme, and found in the /plugins/ folder from your download of theme zip from themeforest. The plugin must be installed then activated like any plugin.

See the changelog to see what files changed for the child theme; as you need to update those as well.

This is why I don’t use child theme and just edit main theme then keep track of updates. With all the big changes to WP the past year, child themes just don’t work as easily as they once did — meaning child themes keep updating too which defeats the purpose! (my opinion only…)

Did you regenerate all your thumbs for this theme when you switched to it, per theme docs?

Note WordPress cannot “enlarge” images to crop/fit, only reduce.

You therefore need soomething like the free “thumbnail upscale” plugin.

See the theme docs for help on “why my images don’t fit ..” and migrating from another theme. 🙂

See the theme docs — right side of page >>>

Basically you need to put your own HTML for the banner graphics and anchor links you want, into the different divs for each viewport (e.g., desktop, tablet, phone).

Then you paste that block of custom HTML into the custom ad section in the ad module.

Clear all your caching, refresh cdn …

Install with just theme zip and not the all files zip.

Try disabling lazy loading feature in theme panel.
Also, make sure you have enough memory allocated to WP.

simchris
tagDiv Member

You would need a plugin for that, or enter the text manually in the post, or other custom work; theme doesn’t support that as far as I know.

simchris

Make sure your settings for the social media elements are correct.
Try disabling all your plugins except for visual composer.
Clear all your site/cdn caching if spplicable.
Check your page with the browser console (F12) for any errors.
