I'm a tennis playing blogger (or a blogging tennis player..?) lol! Whichever you call me, I am both. My goal is to have the best, most informative tennis lifestyle blog for junior girls and women players of all ages and skill levels. And with this theme, I think that's totally possible!

Hi Calin πŸ™‚

Here’s a link to a recipe: https://tennischickmag.com/2022/04/14/serve-up-these-delicious-donut-muffins-at-your-next-home-league-match/

You’ll see that when you click on the stars or heart, the screen just moves to the top and no ratings are left.

Personally, I would rather use the WP Recipe Maker plugin (please see my starter post in this thread) but have settled on this one (Cooked Pro) because I can add the recipe via shortcode so it won’t trigger the black number squares in the smart list. If you could test your theme with the WP Recipe Maker plugin, it would be awesome πŸ™‚

Thanks so much for everything πŸ™‚

YAAASSS! That worked! The affiliate links didn’t have the “/” at the very end… Thank you so much!

Hi Bettina πŸ™‚

I’m not sure why your theme has issues with recipe plugins… I’ve tried the WP Recipe Maker, Tasty Recipes, and just now, the “Cooked” recipe plugin which uses shortcode that actually doesn’t cause issues with the smart list feature of your theme. Unfortunately, however, there is a problem in that the Newspaper theme won’t allow me rate the recipes or “like” them. When I click on either the rating or the “like” heart button, I’m simply taken back to the top of the post with no rating or like πŸ™

I know others in the forum have had issues with recipe plugins, but no one has posted their solutions here, and I am not a coder/developer πŸ™

I know that you have packaged plugins into your theme… is there any way that you can add a recipe plugin as well? That would really be fantastic!

Bummer! I thought for sure since you had a “Gourmet Pro” demo that the theme was made for recipes πŸ™ This plugin is one of the most popular recipe plugins WordPress has, too. Did you test your theme with any recipe plugins? If so, can you please tell me what they are so I can try them out. I can’t figure out the correct code that will remove the numbers just on the recipes (not all other list posts) and fix the location of the servings calculator. Thank you so much πŸ™‚

Hi Bettina πŸ™‚

Actually, you can see the problem for yourself by going to your own “Gourmet Pro” theme, which is the one I downloaded my demo content from. If you hover over every single ad image you have in your theme, you will see that the ad “link” is to what ever page you are viewing the ad on. To replicate my problem, simply go into your settings of the “Gourmet Pro” theme and try to change/create the affiliate link for just one of your image ads.

That is how it is in my theme. I have done everything properly, according to your documentation, and saved it and cleared the cache, but the image ad will ONLY link to whatever page it is viewable on. And when I go back into the settings, the link is always gone as if I never input it in the first place.

Hi Bettina πŸ™‚

I understand that there can only be one link per image. I would have attached images in my previous request, however, they would look exactly like your own examples in your theme documentation that you already have. Therefore, I really need to explain the problem.

When I originally imported the demo content for the theme, it included your ads for your theme. I simply went into the tagDiv Composer editor and replaced your ad images with my own. I also added the affiliate links where they are supposed to be added according to your own theme documentation. The problem is that the affiliate links do not save. I have cleared the cache and cookies, etc., and still there is no saving of the affiliate links. So, when I click on the image ads, all that happens is that the page refreshes.

I am assuming that there is something else that needs to be done before the affiliate links will save and work correctly (maybe in the theme settings?) however I did not see anything in the theme documentation.

Hi Anamaria πŸ™‚ It took a while, but I finally found the instructions indicating which type of featured image not to use if you want to display the featured video instead πŸ™‚

Hi again πŸ™‚ I found that there is an infinity scroll feature – YAY! But I’m still curious about the possibility of a “View Comments” button πŸ™‚
