Can anyone recommend a wordpress forum for commercial theme help
-
Hi, i am trying to find a forum for wordpress when you have bought a commercial theme. I am looking at learning how to change a site for a better user experience and for better seo but there does not seem to be any wordpress forums that i can find for when people have bought a commercial theme
any help in finding one would be great
-
it is good when there is a forum as you can share experiences and gain knowledge but finding a lot of theme clubs without forums

I am trying to learn how to increase the number of articles i can have where it says gatwick news near the bottom. I would like to have 9 articles instead of the 3.
Depending on how that news is put there, it is likely to be an easy change to a plugin, a widget or a code change.
A 5 minute investigation will tell you which it is.

cheers for this. yes i bought it from them as to basically try and learn all about wordpress before i build one from scratch. I normally use joomla and i was worried for a minute that they were using the site to promote themselves
many thanks

Yea sorry, I can explain a little better. The style.css in a wordpress theme will usually have theme developer information. Yours looks like this:
Theme Name: NewspaperTimes [SinglePro Version] Theme URI: http://magazine3.com Description: Newspaper/Political Wordpress Magazine Theme Version: 4.1 Author: Magazine3 Author URI: [http://magazine3.com](http://magazine3.com/) If you purchased it from them then you should be entitle to some sort of support. And as for the firefox developer tools you're inspecting the CSS and HTML, there's a lot involved in making the changes you want to make. You'd need to be comfortable with those as well as PHP to dynamically load in featured images and excerpts.

Hi, can you explain what you mean by Well, the name of your theme folder is "newpaper times single pro." Search returns pretty much all torrent and spam sites
It is not the word gatwick that i am after, i am wanting to put more news there and are new to wordpress. I have been trying to use the firefox tool but not making any sense to be honest.
-
Well, the name of your theme folder is "newpaper times single pro." Search returns pretty much all torrent and spam sites. So theme support is probably nonexistent. However, I think you have enough of the word Gattwick as it is.

get rid of your side panel or
Any of the two

I mean when you buy a theme from a template club. I know wordpress has a forum if you download their free themes but they do not allow you to mention any theme that has been bought if you are trying to learn how to do things

Hi ColinSv. I have just installed Yoast Seo and I am very impressed with it. I normally use Joomla but I am enjoying learning how to use wordpress.
The site i am working on is www.cheapflightsgatwick.com
i am trying to learn how to increase the number of articles i can have where it says gatwick news near the bottom. I would like to have 9 articles instead of the 3.

I think he means, themes that have been reworked for resale...Like some of the vendors ColinSV mentions..
-
I know WooThemes and ElegantThemes both offer great forum based support. Customization and troubleshooting support is so important in WP projects that I only look at themes from developers that have engaged communities.
-
Woothemes have very well designed and built themes right out of the box. They integrate well with SEO plugins as well. They do have a written documentation and a support forum where users and the developers will answer questions you have.
-
Theme developers normally provide direct support for the themes they sell. So it really depends who you purchased your theme from.
If you bought it directly from a vendor like woothemes, themify, etc., then you will definitely find support options on the website where you made the purchase.
If you bought your theme from a marketplace like themeforest.com, then you'd need to log back in and look for the developer or theme author - they will have some sort of theme support option through they're author profile. If they don't, then they're probably not the most reputable vendor.
Also many SEO improvements won't be theme-dependent and are easy to make with the help of plugins like YoastSEO or All in One SEO pack.
What kinds of things are you trying to do? I may be able to point you in the right direction...

Technical SEO | | TadiBrothers
I can not understand why google do not index all the video pages?
I never blocked them with the robots.txt file, there are no noindex/nofollow tags on the pages. The only video page that I found in search results is the main video category page: https://www.tadibrothers.com/videos and 1 video page out of 150 videos: https://www.tadibrothers.com/video/front-side-rear-view-cameras-for-backup-camera-systems I hope someone can point me to the right way0 -
Moving wordpress to it's own server
Our company wants to remove wordpress from our current windows OS server at provider 1 and move it to a new server at provider 2. Godaddy handles our DNS. I would like to have it on the same domain without masking. I would like to make a DNS entry on godaddy so that our current server and our new server can use the same URL (ie sellstuff.com). But I only want the DNS to direct traffic to our current server. The goal here is to have the new server using the same URL as the old server so nothing needs to be masked once traffic is redirected with a 301 rule in the htaccess file. But no traffic outside of the 301 rule will end up going to the new server. I would then like to edit the htaccess file on our current server to redirect to the new servers IP address when someone goes to sellstuff.com/blog. Does this make since and is it possible?

Optimizing a Forum (phpbb3)
Hi all, Over the last 6 months our small forum has be getting a tiny bit of traffic. We would like to make the forum a larger part of what we are offering (content wise). Regardless, I am wondering if anyone had any recommendations for optimizing a phpbb3 forum as Moz seems to keep telling me that I have 70,000 pieces of duplicate content, duplicate pages, etc. While the site crawl by moz outputs varying results week to week, it appears to be tagging posts and responses to posts as duplicate content. I am concerned that Google may be doing the same. Additionally, are there any recommendations for best practices related to forum meta descriptions and page titling as well? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Jared P.

Can a CMS affect SEO?
As the title really, I run www.specialistpaintsonline.co.uk and 6 months ago when I first got it it had bad links which google had put a penalty against it so losts it value. However the penalty was lift in Sept, the site corresponds to all guidelines and seo work has been done and constantly monitored. the issue I have is sales and visits have not gone up, we are failing fast and running on 2 or 3 sales a month isn't enough to cover any sort of cost let alone wages. hence my question can the cms have anything to do with it? Im at a loss and go grey any help or advice would be great. thanks in advance.

How can I best handle parameters?
Thank you for your help in advance! I've read a ton of posts on this forum on this subject and while they've been super helpful I still don't feel entirely confident in what the right approach I should take it. Forgive my very obvious noob questions - I'm still learning! The problem: I am launching a site (coursereport.com) which will feature a directory of schools. The directory can be filtered by a handful of fields listed below. The URL for the schools directory will be coursereport.com/schools. The directory can be filtered by a number of fields listed here: Focus (ex: “Data Science”) Cost (ex: “$<5000”) City (ex: “Chicago”) State/Province (ex: “Illinois”) Country (ex: “Canada”) When a filter is applied to the directories page the CMS produces a new page with URLs like these: coursereport.com/schools?focus=datascience&cost=$<5000&city=chicago coursereport.com/schools?cost=$>5000&city=buffalo&state=newyork My questions: 1) Is the above parameter-based approach appropriate? I’ve seen other directory sites that take a different approach (below) that would transform my examples into more “normal” urls. coursereport.com/schools?focus=datascience&cost=$<5000&city=chicago VERSUS coursereport.com/schools/focus/datascience/cost/$<5000/city/chicago (no params at all) 2) Assuming I use either approach above isn't it likely that I will have duplicative content issues? Each filter does change on page content but there could be instance where 2 different URLs with different filters applied could produce identical content (ex: focus=datascience&city=chicago OR focus=datascience&state=illinois). Do I need to specify a canonical URL to solve for that case? I understand at a high level how rel=canonical works, but I am having a hard time wrapping my head around what versions of the filtered results ought to be specified as the preferred versions. For example, would I just take all of the /schools?focus=X combinations and call that the canonical version within any filtered page that contained other additional parameters like cost or city? Should I be changing page titles for the unique filtered URLs? I read through a few google resources to try to better understand the how to best configure url params via webmaster tools. Is my best bet just to follow the advice on the article below and define the rules for each parameter there and not worry about using rel=canonical ? https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1235687 An assortment of the other stuff I’ve read for reference: http://www.wordtracker.com/academy/seo-clean-urls http://www.practicalecommerce.com/articles/3857-SEO-When-Product-Facets-and-Filters-Fail http://www.searchenginejournal.com/five-steps-to-seo-friendly-site-url-structure/59813/ http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2011/07/improved-handling-of-urls-with.html
