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.

No worries. 🙂

I had to do this way back when, as all our old sites had ‘views’ or ‘Views’ — and then our plugin was adding double hits before I realized I had to disable plugin vs trying to hack that out of the theme.

… so, just remember you need to edit that file every time you update the theme!

TIP: keep that in your list of backup stuff in a folder someplace for your overall site project. Glad you got it sorted.

I did suggest they add that as a theme panel option at some point, but considering it’s now 4 years later, I don’t think I will hold my breath on that 😉

Yep, and for those who can’t find the docs:

Correct! Generally you would *not* allow this if you had public folk signing up and having ability to edit their accounts/bios ….

but in a magazine setup, you might want to have ‘long bios’ — we do that here; and I think we used one of the common functions like this

//disable WordPress sanitization to allow more than just $allowedtags from /wp-includes/kses.php
remove_filter('pre_user_description', 'wp_filter_kses');
//add sanitization for WordPress posts
add_filter( 'pre_user_description', 'wp_filter_post_kses');

Open it in text editor, take everything out of it.

Some ad networks insert goofy space below graphic. We recently changed our adsense ads to text only due to this dumb thing. You could set custom div around it and with css set a max height and hide overflow.

Many membership plugins on market, try looking at wordpress.org first.

Fix your robots.txt file to not block your site?

simchris

Yep. See the wordpress.org codex on how themes work to better learn to use wordpress basic features.

Try opening the template php file for the default post template youve chosen and drop that code in after headline. Try it. Thats usally how i hack the theme.

simchris

This is explained in the theme docs. Modules are a group of blocks. See the link to theme docs and peruse the sections to learn all this stuff. Ton of info there ??

Why not just creat the menu item and add the drop down items thete. See the wordpress.org codex on how menus work in wordpress. ?

Tagline is only used when you have text only logo. You could probably add that to your header.php file after logo section.

Hi, you might want to read the docs here on how to install theme
https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/

simchris

You should only upload the theme folder, not the ‘all files’ folder. Super common mistake, there 😉

Hi
i don’t work here …

see if you can turn on visibility to for custom fields on your posts.. there should be a custom field for your former ‘views’ … if not, you’d have to look in your dbase to find the right field name; or just start from scratch with the new counter, which you’ll see on the posts custom fields from the theme

https://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Panels#Screen_Options

I am surprised the field isn’t called webnus_views based on the code you specified.

I can’t really be much more help here.

No prob; I don’t work here; was just lurking here while doing php updates on my server the other day. 🙂

You can use the Chrome F12 inspector tool, and console; and you can now simulate the mobile view to see any specific error there.

Simply create a category called ‘Featured’

Theme doesnt send email. You might need smtp plugin.

Might need to check with hosting provider… also check system status in theme panel

simchris

Google it, not related to theme, but there is a function to change that

simchris

See my [tutorial] post in the forum, do search include the brackets, or look in the theme docs tutorials best of forum

Maybe check with your hosting provider ?

Nothing to do with the theme.
