Does anyone know how to find functions/codes/etc in WordPress?
-
Right now, I'm working on solving a relatively easy WP issue (easy, because someone told me what to do. Thanks iNetSeo). I have to replace:
<span class="post_date"></span class="post_date"> and replace it with <span class="post_date date="" updated"=""></span class="post_date> But, I can't find the "_<span class="post_date">"</span class="post_date">_For a number of my WP problems, the hardest part is just located the code/function/markup I need to replace. Does anyone know where this might usually be stored on a website? Also, does anyone know if there's any tool that would allowed to just put "various function" in a search box, and wordpress take you to where it was on the backend of your site, so you could edit it?
I included a screenshot of our editors, but I already opened them all, pasted the code in Ctrl-F to no avail, but maybe I missed something.
Thanks for helping with my frustrating scavenger hunt!

Turned out to be under functions.php under entry-date.
Thanks everyone!

Turns out it was under entry-date, just not a file I had looked at.
Thanks so much!

Hi Dave,
Not in index, nor single, but thanks especially for pointing out single. I wouldn't have thought to look there. We don't have an archive for some reason.
Thanks for the suggestions!

I'm actually trying to fix a bunch of the structured data errors I have from GWT. I have a ton of them, and they all have to do with this one piece of code. Apparently, it's a common WP problem. I will try to find those files now. Thanks!

P.S. I also checked my functions.php via someone else's suggestions, but I didn't see it there either.

I'm guessing you are doing this to add data to a snippet?
I would check these three places. Most WP themes have them here:
index.php (main Blog Page)
single.php (single Post Page)
archive.php (archive Page) -
To no avail, but thank you. Excellent idea! I actually just realized I don't even have

I assume this has to be in the Single Post Php file somewhere, so I'm just going to post that to see if there's some synonym for entry date or post date that, I"m not seeing:
get_header();
setup_postdata($post);
get_sidebar();
?>get_template_part( 'loop', 'single' );
?>Kemp & Ruge Law Group
$off=1;
query_posts('cat=5&orderby=DATE&order=ASC');
while(have_posts()):the_post();
?>$off++;
endwhile;
wp_reset_query();
?>query_posts('p=109');
while(have_posts()) :the_post();
the_content();
endwhile;
wp_reset_query();
?> -
Try searching for <span class="entry-date">in your single-post.php file and see if that turns up what you are looking for.</span class="entry-date">

Do we still have this Page Rank / Link juice / Link equity? So this dilution concept?
Hi all, As per the traditional or standard SEO rules, we have this link juice and dilution concept. Many websites have changed their linking structure with this with the beleif "the more number of pages, the PR will get diluted". Then many websites avoided more number of pages from homepage to avoid link juice dilution. Even we followed same. But I just wonder it's still the same way Google handles websites and rankings as per the links. And many websites even avoid more number of 2nd tier/hierarchy pages to avoid link dilution. I have gone through our competitors where they been employing lot of top level pages like 2nd tier/hierarchy pages but still doing good at rankings. Please share your views and suggestions on this. Thanks

How to deal with 100s of Wordpress media link pages, containing images, but zero content
I have a Wordpress website with well over 1000 posts. I had a SEO audit done and it was highlighted that every post had clickable images. If you click the image a new webpage opens containing nothing but the image. I was told these image pages with zero content are very bad for SEO and that I should get them removed. I have contacted several Wordpress specialists on People Per Hour. I have basically been offered two solutions. 1 - redirect all these image pages to a 404, so they are not found by Google 2 - redirect each image page to the main post page the image is from. What's my best option here? Is there a better option? I don't care if these pages remain, providing they are not crawled by Google and classified as spam etc. All suggestions greatly received!

Best way to indicate multiple Lang/Locales for a site in the sitemap
So here is a question that may be obvious but wondering if there is some nuance here that I may be missing. Question: Consider an ecommerce site that has multiple sites around the world but are all variations of the same thing just in different languages. Now lets say some of these exist on just a normal .com page while others exist on different ccTLD's. When you build out the XML Sitemap for these sites, especially the ones on the other ccTLD's, we want to ensure that using <loc>http://www.example.co.uk/en_GB/"</loc> <xhtml:link<br>rel="alternate"
Web Design | | DRSearchEngOpt
hreflang="en-AU"
href="http://www.example.com.AU/en_AU/"
/>
<xhtml:link<br>rel="alternate"
hreflang="en-NZ"
href="http://www.example.co.NZ/en_NZ/"
/> Would be the correct way of doing this. I know I have to change this for each different ccTLD but it just looks weird when you start putting about 10-15 different language locale variations as alternate links. I guess I am just looking for a bit of re-affirmation I am doing this right.</xhtml:link<br></xhtml:link<br> Thanks!0 -
Many errors from previous ecommerce site. Domain is now just a localized wordpress site.
Many errors from previous ecommerce site. Do I need to redirect every single page that no longer exists at this domain? loveyourcabinets.com used to be loveyourkitchenandbath.com but we have since changed course. We want loveyourkitchenandbath.com to be our local site on Long Island and NYC. Loveyourcabinets.com will be an ecommerce project that I'll be revamping in the coming months. I think Moz as well as Google still has all of the old ecommerce pages indexed. And of course, Moz is shooting me a bunch of error all regarding pages from the ecommerce site that used to be on loveyourkitchenandbath.com. Any thoughts? Commentary? Thx
