The email came back with an error msg, I sent it again to what I presume is the right email address 🙂 .

I can not reply, I get the following error message when posting:

This was the log during the php collapse.
Now the site is working in its web version,
The more urgent problem however is the mobile (amp) version that still does not work.

But if you find out what went wrong with the php update and we can remedy it, I would also try again the php update.

For the amp, it says: “Service Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

Additionally, a 503 Service Unavailable error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.”

where can I find the archive of the error log?
If there isn’t any, I can repeat the upgrade and take a screenshot of the errors produced on the visitor’s end.

Thank you,
This might probably be obvious, but how do I get to this page?
Best

Thank you for the reply.
I disabled WP chache plugin, and the problem seems to dissolve. Apparently the plugin does not work well with the Theme.

On more question: how can I edit the mobile view of the page to include a header?
Right now it features a default header of Newspapoer (at logo size).

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

The problems started specifically after the update (12.6).
All the plugins seemed to be turned on.
The problem is, it seems like it is a mobile version but without the header logo.

Yesterday it seemed to work again, but now it does not.

zoldfulu

Indeed this is pretty much what I was looking for 🙂
Thank you.
Is there a way to customise the styling? (colour fonts)
The interface mentioned a “Styles tab”, but I could not find it.

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

Thank you, but it is not a tag cloud, this box only show 5-6 tags (first or most popular, each way quite useless).

A Tag Cloud shows all the tags used in a box, and the ones I liked had the feature that the more popular tags had a slightly larger font.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-tags-and-archive/
Is there a plugin I can use for tag cloud, that you tested?

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

Thank you for the reply.
I enabled it in the theme settings, but still shows the very low number.

This is misleading, so even not showing any number would be better.
Is there a way to turn off this stat feature at the posts?

Hello,
Thanks for the swift answer.
I did as suggested and the speed related issue is solved. Thanks!

As for Envira, there are a few really well known galleries, which could be indeed tested. Envira is one of the first coming up at every article on WordPress galleries.

I will test the Newspaper’s own gallery you suggested. Does it work with Gutenberg disabled?

As for the counter, it does not seem to improve. I tried as suggested, but the visitor states are still not in line with that of the WordPress dashboard. For the article on events calendar ( https://egzostive.com/the-ultimate-2022-car-show-and-events-list/ ) the article still shows only 909 (and I had the impression the numbers go backwards) while the WordPress dashboard tells me 2760.

Thanks for the quick info.
First of all, cookiebot should not even be be there. This was installed when I tried to go through your suggested alternatives for cookie compliance.
It didnt work so I uninstalled some time ago.

The website should be using GDPR cookie compliance, which seems to work on the articles but not on the main page.
Can you remove the references to cookiebot and make sure that cookie compliance is active on the main page?

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

Thank you for the swift reply.

I did both (adding the code in the theme panel and in the single post content) but the results are somewhat below my expectations.

In the individual posts, ads are only shown in the end of the article.

As for the frontpage, there is a problem that the the cookie disclaimer is not shown, and until one accepts the cookie consent, the front page does not show ads, and also misses the latest post.

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

I repeat, that plugin is no longer “tested”.
It is a disaster now.
The site does not load the latest version of an article (including the homepage), unless you accept the cookie consent.
But you need to click several times, and even then the page loads only after a while.
It makes a very-very unprofessional impression.
This plugin does not work at all with the theme now.
It would be useful to recommend a plugin that works…
This is an essential plugin.

zoldfulu

Hi
Any updates on recommended GDPR plugin?
Currently it does not work with Newspaper.
Unless I accept the banner, it does not show the latest posts (like a few day old version of the page Egzostive), but even if I click 10 times, the banner still stays.
This is makes a very embarrassing impression for the page…

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

I think you should start testing others, as this seems to be bought by another company, and it no longer works properly.

No matter how many times I click on it the banner with the disclaimer does not disappear.
This is very disturbing.

Well, not EVERY backup, just some, the last one that failed so miserably was in October.

An Automatic update should not lead to such things.

So far we figured out with your colleague, Simoin that the updated emptied the header, which I managed to bring back following his instructions.

What remains to be done is to bring back the sidebar at Posts. But if that is not feasible, I will restore.

I am also a bit bothered by the loss of traffic, which had obvious reasons when the front page was messed up. But even now, it is lower than it should be. But this might be due to seasonal traffic patterns.

All in all, let me know if your colleagues can bring back the sidebar for the posts, otehrwise I will restore the backup, and lose some days of work.

Dear Vlad,

That is why I asked per email whether you are able to sort it out.

The things got messed up since the update (missing sidebar and badly formatted header at Posts, missing Header and Menu for the Main page), that are still not resolved.

I wanted to give a fair chance, but right now, I am actually sorry that I did not go for the restore option.

I ran into this problem both last semester and this semester and in both
cases the problem was not resolved by the Tagdiv.

My only insurance is to update only after backup.

So far the catastrophic fallout is remedied, but the above issues are not yet.

Is there any timeframe I can expect a solution, or should I instruct Bluehost to restore again to the state before Saturday?

Looking forward to your reply.
Z

zoldfulu

I also wrote an email with screenshots.
It would be good if you could address the problem this time, so that I do not need to restore from backup, and lose days of work.

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

Again the same thing.
Update and the page is a mess.
1. The header is now wrong, (the header image voers everthings, the dimension is set too thin, plus when I tried to import a header (default pro) the editor gives content error messages).

2. Since the update, the posts do not feature the sidebar.

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

Restore complete, I would ask you to wait until Saturday with any updates or editing, as the backups are done every Friday.

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

As the backup means loss of some articles/edits, if you can make it work, that would be the ideal solution. I think the backup should be ready by tomorrow morning.

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

Since there was no news, I request a roll back to the latest backup.
We spend quite some time with Bluehost on checking the theme.
They are now working on bringing back the backup.

zoldfulu
tagDiv Member

Unless you are able to do stg about it soon, I will ask my host to restore a backup, and then perhaps we can see what went wrong the last time with the backup.
