It’s fixed, thank you! Much appreciated! ??

I just wrote a new post, and Jetpack did not send out notification emails. In order to get Jetpack to send them out, I had to roll back to version 4.1.1 (using the WP Rollback plugin ??

Also, very strange things have been happening with people trying to subscribe lately. When they enter their email address and click “subscribe,” Jetpack tells them they’ve unsubscribed (opted out). Then they send me an email and complain about it.

It seems Jetpack is having some major problems with the last few updates. I hope you can get it working; I’ve been using it for three years and was always very happy with it.

I took the blog page off of the menu and put the site back up. Traffic is very good today, and everything else looks fine, so it’s a shame to keep it down.

I just deleted the blog module from the blog page again, and the page (with just the header and footer) is just the way it should be. It must be some conflict with that module.

I’ve been waiting close to 2 days for a response from Divi’s support team… but it seems like the theme may be the problem after all, most likely something in one of the customizations. I’ve never had to make so many before, and I wouldn’t be surprised if something isn’t quite right.

Thanks you again for your help. Much appreciated.

Thank you for responding. When I tried putting all the posts on one page, it would load partially, with the default format, and give the fatal error message.

I just tried removing some code from my child single.php that the Divi developers had given me to create pagination in the blog posts (it is not included in the theme, hard to believe!) and I thought that may have been the problem, but it broke the blog page completely.

Each time I get the fatal error, it says a different file is the problem. I’ve gotten fatal errors for wp-includes/formatting.php, wp-content/plugins/related-posts-by-taxonomy/includes/functions.php on line 279, and Divi/epanel/custom_functions.php on line 244.

**I switched to the twenty fifteen theme in a staging site, and the blog page worked perfectly.** Does this mean that replacing the theme would fix the problem (either a fresh copy of Divi, or a different them completely)? It sure seem that way.

I just put the site into maintenance mode because things are getting worse by the minute. Thank you for taking the time to help me.

The code works!!

I’m leaving this follow-up in case anyone else comes along needing help with the same issue.

I have added this to .htaccess:

## 1 Month for most static assets ##
<FilesMatch "\.(json|pdf|swf|bmp|gif|jpeg|jpg|png|svg|tiff|ico|flv|css|js)$">
Header set Cache-Control "max-age=2592000, public"
</filesMatch>
## END 1 month for most static assets ##

I’ve just learned that max-age will enable the browser to check for updated files. Is that correct?

I’ve seen other examples of this code that include this:

<IfModule mod_headers.c>

Is that necessary?

Thank you

And thank you, sterndata! That’s the plugin I ended up using, because I couldn’t quite understand the instructions on the other one.

It worked! Thank you, Mark!!!

If the site breaks, I’ll just restore a backup. I’m moments away from doing it anyway. Thanks for your help, Mark.

Thanks for your reply. It really wasn’t intended to be a Divi-specific question; I assumed others have run into this problem and maybe there was some general solution that had nothing to do with the theme.

I certainly don’t want to break the site. There are hundreds of links involved, so I can’t change them all manually. Perhaps I’ll restore my old site and kiss Divi goodbye.
