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

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...

Who is correct - please help!
I have a website with a lot of product pages - often thousands of pages. As each of these pages is for a specific lease car they are often only fractionally different from other pages. The urls are too long, the H1 is often too long and the Title is often too long for "SEO best practice". And they do create duplication issues according to MOZ. Some people tell me to change them to noindex/nofollow whilst others tell me to leave them as they are as best not to hide from google crawler. Any advice will be gratefully received. Thanks for listening.

Old forum with 404s, what should I do?
Hello, So I'm helping out some friends with their SEO. I've just run a Screaming Frog crawl of their entire site (which took hours and hours I might add). They used to have a forum connected to the site, which is no longer active. Google is still indexing all of the old URLs, which unsurprisingly return 404 errors. What should they do to prevent Google from indexing these pages? That's assuming they need to do anything at all. They don't have access to these old forum posts and therefore won't be able to fix the URL or resource adding a 301 redirect pointing to the most relevant alternate page. I'm new to SEO but my instinct is that they need to have the page return a 410 ‘Gone’ response code to give search engines a clear signal that the page no longer exists and won’t be returning, and removing the internal links to that URL or resource. 1. Is this interpretation correct?

Wordpress pagination and SEO
Hello Mozzers, We have incorporated Wordpress blog in our website. The blog has a fair share of what we believe is a valuable content both for the users and SEO. We have reached the point where our content is getting pushed out to pages 2, 3 and etc. 99% of the older content is still relevant and useful. However it does get less traffic from the users because it is not on the front page. I am dealing with it by showing "related posts" and get some traffic through that. I feel that the content that got pushed from the front page of the blog gets less love from search engines as well.The my permalink structure is /%postname%/ only, however when Wordpress adds page/1/ the SEO ranking appears to drop. Is it because Wordpress adds page/1/ to the address? What is a good way to optimize is? I have 15 posts showing on the front page should I increase it?

Blog is outranking my root domain - Why and Help
I have an odd question concerning SERP rankings on Google along with PageRank and Google Trust. I have a website created in HTML with a WP blog created in a sub-directory. I am finding that the blog is getting relatively good rankings yet it seems the root domain is not getting any of the rank or trust passed onto it as it consistently is outranked by the blog. In fact, for a few of our targeted keywords the root domain does not even show up at all, yet the blog does. Our blog is #2 in Google SERPs, a top Google Place ranking, a Youtube video in the top 10 and a Google Ad place somewhere in the mix of first page ads. The root domain is nowhere to be found. Is there something I need to correct either on the site, in Google Webmaster or in WP Settings that I am not aware that is pushing all the Google Rank and Trust to the blog instead of the other way around? I considered changing the WP Site URL to the root domain thinking it will pass more SEO mojo to the root. But I don't think this is the way to go. I am kind of at a loss, any help is appreciated.

No follow and do follow on wordpress
I am in the process of building a new wordpress site to replace my old static HTML site and I am now doing SEO on it. With my old site the default was do follow and I could easily change the HTML to no follow but on my wordpress site the default is no follow and I cannot seem to find a way to change parts to do follow. Tried a plugin but it does not deal with the home page at all and when I select do follow my SEO tools still highlight the links as no follow. A bit stumped on this one. Anyone have any experience with this? thanks

Canonical Issues with Wordpress
Hi all, I have just started using Wordpress SEO by Yoast and still having a hard time correcting my Canonical issues for all posts with a .html at the end. The pluggin allows you to add a '/' to the end for canonical issues, but just for pages, not posts. How best in Wordpress to make my post change from .html/ to .html. I really don't want to go to the hassle to make each URL a new 301 redirect in my .htaccess. I hate the .html, but if they are going to stay, how can I make sure I get the .html/ link juice back to them. Many thanks!
