I’ve cleared everything I can think of…

Browser cache, W3 Total Cache, and have purged everything from CloudFlare.

But, I’ve gotten confirmation that another issue I’m seeing is showing up fine on the supports end, and they are also suggesting that that problem is a caching issue, too.

So, I’m assuming it’s something simple like that. I just need to dig deeper.

I think the problem is that when a related post’s title is longer than two lines, it pushes the entries below it down.

So, then the fix would then to be limit the number of characters in the titles. Is there any way to do that?

I did add this code to my .htaccess as requested by the Yoast plugin because I’m on NGINX:

rewrite ^/sitemap_index.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=1 last;
rewrite ^/([^/]+?)-sitemap([0-9]+)?.xml$ /index.php?sitemap=$1&sitemap_n=$2 last;

Thanks Michele!

I actually deleted the old sitemap and switched to the new one. I’m not exactly sure if I submitted the other one originally. I must have. But now I’ve deleted the sitemap.xml from Webmaster Tools and added sitemap_index.xml.

Is that all I need to do? elitegamingcomputers.com/sitemap.xml still shows up. (Although in Google Chrome it’s blank and I can only see what’s on it by going to View Source) Is it a problem to have two sitemaps?

I have a ton of duplicate titles, meta descriptions and 404 errors, but I think they’re caused by my forums. And, I believe I made the right fix yesterday, just waiting a couple of days to see the changes in Webmaster Tools.

I use W3 Total Cache, where can I see if it’s listed properly in that plugin? And, how can I tell if I have it setup correctly in .htaccess?

Thanks for responding.

Best,

Thanks for responding Michele. Unfortunately, there is no ‘Edit Files’ tab underneath the SEO tab. The drop-down menu only shows ‘Keyword Research’ and ‘SEO Settings’ and neither of those have an ‘Edit Files’ option.

I have version 1.5.2.6

Well Host Gator is now taking blame after originally saying it was my ISP. So, that’s good I guess.

Thanks for your help!

Thanks for answering esmi. If they’re blocking my ISP could they be blocking other’s as well? I’ve noticed a traffic dip since last night, so I’m thinking that there are others that cannot get onto my site also.

That did the trick! Thank you sir!

That worked! Thanks alchymyth!

I just have one more question… now that the width is correct, for whatever reason the .entry-meta is sitting way above the .entry-title. Is there anyway I can swap them so the .entry-meta is sitting below the .entry-title?

Is that something I can do on the stylesheet, or will I have to go into one of the .php files?

That did it! It looks perfect now.

Thank you again WPyogi for your sage advice!

Best,

Well they don’t have to know that I pay you! ??

Everything looks great, but now instead of the hover text getting cut off, the whole hover is extending below the navigation bar.

By the way, thank you for all of your help. I really appreciate it!

Brent

Once again your answers have helped me out a ton!

Now everything is looking awesome. The side border is there, but that’s really not that big of a deal. The hover is still a little off, too. The Home hover is too wide on the left and the menu item names are below the hover.

Do you have an email address? I’d like to pay you for taking the time to find these fixes if possible!

I’m going to have to get Firebug. I have CSS viewer right now, but it must not give as many options as Firebug.

Thanks again!

That did it! You guys are awesome.

By the way, how did you find that it was .singular? I tried doing .content-single… but that didn’t work.

Thank you so much for helping me out with this. I appreciate both of you taking a look at it.

When I edit #content it only makes changes to the content on the home page and not on the single posts.

I’m looking in the page.php file right now and the only div is #content. So, I’m not sure what to edit in the CSS file. Could it be “.content-single” or something like that?
