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...

How do I best optimize my on-page SEO for a magazine-style wordpress theme?
My Wordpress website is set up with a magazine style theme (Newspaper). Maybe that's the issue overall here. Questions: 1) Pages vs Categories vs Posts I currently have a category with a few dozen posts under it. The category page itself has a ~1000 word article on it. It paginates every 10 posts or so at the bottom, but most of the page is duplicate because it's only swapping out a few links. Should I instead make the "category" a page with the posts childed under it? What's the best way to go about that? 2) Canonical and Pagination I get errors about a ton of duplicate content for paginated categories and my author page (all posts are under the admin account, which has ~40 pages or so. Every page is just a list of posts and it bitches about duplicate Titles and Descriptions on every one of the paginated posts). Should I canonical these back to the root author? Same question regarding pagination for categories, assuming I'm not going to be switching them to Pages. 3) Home Page Links Right now my home page just shows a few links to the top posts of all time. After that, it shows the 5 newest posts. On the sidebar it lists a few random pages/posts. There are also a few "category listings" which just shows random posts relevant to that category. Do I want something more static/structured? The navbar does list most main content pages under their appropriate category, but the home page itself is pretty much dynamic.

Squarespace or Wordpress for a Photographer
Hi, I was wondering if people would recommend squarespace or wordpress for a photographer. I'm mainly curious about how wordpress uses internal links for their images and squarespace images exist on http://static1.squarespace.com. Wouldn't a photographers website, one that focuses on images, be better on wordpress for this readson?

Problem with Wordpress RSS feed and Feedburner
Just discovered a problem with my company site's RSS feed. I'm a bit embarrassed to ask, but I thought someone in the community might have encountered this -- and I cannot figure it out for the life of me! We had redirected our Wordpress feed to Feedburner. We publish at least once per week, but no posts after March 18 are in the feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheClineGroup The standard (Wordpress) RSS feed page does not load: http://theclinegroup.com/feed/ Of course, I deactivated all plug-ins to see if one of them was the issue, but the problem(s) still existed. Thanks so much for any assistance!

Can a Novice Fix Parallelize Issues?
I was working yesterday on making my WP site quicker (sellingwarnerrobins.com) and after updating the htaccess file to solve some "Leverage Browser Caching" issues I re-ran a scan on Pingdom Tools and am now getting a zero for "Parallelize downloads across hostnames" with a list of 34 items to fix. I did some web searches and when the articles started talking about cnames, subdomains, and hostname distribution it went beyond my capabilities. Are these Parallelize "issues" something a novice like myself can easily fix? If so, how?

What can we do to improve our site
Hi. I am hoping that some of you can help me with the in2town site www.in2town.co.uk The site is a news/lifestyle magazine site. The site is a cross between, huffington post, digital spy, female first and the sun newspaper. Basically the site is a news site as well as covering showbiz news, travel news, health news and advice etc What i would like is for people to look at the site and let me know what they feel i should do to improve the site to make it better for our readers and to gain more readership. I would also like to hear from people on how they find moving around the site as well as the speed of the site. At the moment the site is with an american hosting company and i am in the process of talking to UK hosting companies to move the site. The site is currently on a dedicated server. It would mean a lot if people could give me their advice on how to improve the site and make it a beter experience for our readers while at the same time being able to generate income with the site. Just a quick note, all content is original and we have a number of people who write for the site. many thanks

Does having mulitste wordpress with same templaes hurt you?
Ok seo guys, don't get crazy here I am not trying to build a link wheel or anything black hat that's why I am asking. I want to create several sites that are within my niche but cannot be on the same site because it just wouldn't make sense. So for the purpose of branding a company can we have multi sites with similar templates or does google not want this. I am not trying to rank these for the sole purpose of back linking but I want them all on a mulit site so they can have the same buddy press network. Let me know what you guys think.
