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.

Trust me, we’ve all been down this road on the folder stuff at least once 😉

What I usually do is make a project folder on my PC, and download ALL the element options from TF for the theme, and put into that folder. I can then unzip and see WHAT I actually have. Good for safe keeping, too.

Theme does not control RSS feeds, these are part of WordPress.

RSS validation tools are unable to validate

A) SRCSET tags
B) https enclosures, as it doesn’t know what https is (really dumb), and only validates if http, since stuck in 20th century
C) Weird crap invented by WordPress but not part of the normal Web standards

addons from Jetpack may generate this error, try disabling Jetpack features if using that which add to the RSS

<site xmlns="com-wordpress:feed-additions:1">116197527</site>

If using YOAST SEO, disable the feature which adds extra text to the feeds.

(( UNRELATED Note that posts/pages should ideally be built by a user and not by ‘admin’ as you should not have an ‘admin’ named user for WordPress. ))

See other thread.

Try simply putting your ad code in a normal text box.

Turn off your ad blocking software or browser extension.

Check your AdSense account to see if your site got ‘unapproved’ for loading ads.

simchris
tagDiv Member

Probably. Looks like an ‘ad blocker’ in place in your browser.

ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT will be from security/privacy software on your PC blocking optional, third-party features on the website

403 error can be from your site or IP being blocked by the ad network from loading anything … or some element on your site not being allowed to load …

A web server may return an HTTP 403 Forbidden status in response to a request from a client for a web page or it may indicate that the server can be reached and process the request but refuses to take any further action. HTTP status code 403 responses are the result of the web server being configured to deny access to the requested resource by the client.

Might not help but for my sites i find making separate sidebar for home page is useful. I call mine homesider, put stuff in there, then select that for my home layout. This way its mot affected by any other settings from category or post template settings.

Try it if not working.

simchris

Try it with one site first, maybe?

Download the all files zip from theme forest.

People have to click on ads to earn revenue. Ad blockers hide ads.

Check f12 for console errors.
Check adsense account for content warnings.

Obviously you need to properly setup ads so you can see them, and you should be seeing ad impressions in your adsense account.

Yes — already noted in my posts. http/2 on Plesk requires https.

Not sure point of your comment. But again, thanks for chiming in !

Feel free to reply to get last word in, I’m no longer following thread.

simchris
tagDiv Member

Sure. Whatever. For servers running NGINX and Plesk, http/2 will not work. This was the point for the original poster (OP). So, no https setup or proper cert would generate errors and http/2 would not work at server level.

So, if browsers require it and certain servers require it, that = ‘required’ beyond the technical issue of the format which originally required it, then didn’t, but now technically does to work for most instances. So, moot point beyond historical discussion.

So, my point is still valid. Yours added nothing to the actual issue, but thanks for the input and hope you’re enjoying the theme 🙂

(I’ve been lurking here since TD launched, but don’t work here … and I’m a bit of a dinosaur on this stuff – having been building sites since 1995, and WordPress since 2004.)

I’m out!

simchris

Yes, I am well aware having managed our own servers since 1996. However *most* web hosts are requiring https for http/2 as a standard with the ‘https everywhere’ movement.

Much like Google will be warning site visitors about “site not safe” for any website with an insecure form in October. Everybody *should* be moving to https. Period. We moved all our sites to https in 2004, not just the ecom systems on sites.

Obviously anybody who can read up on the topic knows that.

My point was that somebody trying to switch on http/2 on their server as a hosting client, where the server policy is to enforce https for http/2 will have errors and perhaps generate ‘port’ errors since there will be mis-match on secure/insecure ports, much like with mod_pagespeed couple years back (2013? wow time flies!) with mixed content.

server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server name

For example on a Plesk/ONYX server, “Make sure that SSL support is enabled for the web site in the Hosting Settings section of the domain. HTTP/2 is supported for SSL sites only, so non-SSL sites will continue to work under HTTP /1.x. That is a restriction of nginx web server and web browsers.”

REF: https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/administrator-guide/web-servers/apache-and-nginx-web-servers-linux/http2-support-in-plesk.76461/

My comment was intended for the OP who might not understand what he/she is actually doing with this process.

Cheers.

Surprised the CDN company didn’t have any help on how to get your theme images loaded onto the CDN ? Isn’t there a sync function or something, or plugin, or whatever they give you to able to load all your visible site content “on page” from the CDN ? Theme doesn’t control that, your CDN provider does.

simchris

Also, note most http/2 installs *do* require https, and site fully configured and optimized for that (meaning all elements, content, scripts, external files, etc.) served via https.

simchris
tagDiv Member

make sure you install just the main theme zip file, not the ‘all files’ zip

simchris

No such thing with wordpress. See the wordpress.org codex docs on normal wordpress .php file structure. The home page is either built from pieces on top of index.php or page.php in theme folder.

* RESOLVED *
the trick was to strip out the img from the $content then print the ‘large’ thumbnail above that in the RSS.

Sheeeeeeeh.

simchris
tagDiv Member

heh…. sorry; I’m doing a major server thing right now …. have 5 windows open and stuck here …

something similar to what’s going on here …
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/220739/rewrite-inline-image-markup

Willing to pay somebody who knows how to grok this one better than me.

TIA.

simchris

Or a function hook to target the ID and make the inline image switch from

size-full

to

size-large

?

simchris
tagDiv Member

the ’17-0908-easeus-mobisaver11-696×522-600×450.jpg’ is the ‘large’ thumbnail generated by WordPress.

You can use geo targeting with an ad management module/plugin (not part of theme); however be aware with the shortage of IPV4 IPs, the actual country/locale may be totally wrong (e.g., here in Calif when Frontier took over FIOS from Verizon, all our IP blocks were originally from Canada, so I’d go to Newegg and they would redirect me to their Canadian site every time … so the geo sniffer totally failed there … ) …. until IPv6 comes into full adoption, there will still be a lot of false locales with the wind down on IPv4.

Food for thought anyway 🙂

You sure can. Many do. I often recommend FeedWordPress as I’ve been using it for many years. We have a ‘mothership’ news system, which then feeds various other sites in our network, as well as other syndicators around the world.
