I just installed version 1.4.11 on a new WordPress installation and I have the same problem: there is no “Save Settings” button on the Titles & Metas page in Yoast WordPress SEO.

TK – This appears to have worked. Thank you.

Here is the image of the MailChimp WordPress widget that says “There are no options for this widget.” https://imm.io/12GdG

As noted by IckataNET in this thread https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/search-everything-breaks-my-website-navigation-1?replies=1 the problem only happens with plugin versions later than 6.1.1. I installed version 6.1.1 and it fixed my search results pages. Thanks, IckataNET!

I am having the same problem with the Search Everything plugin and WordPress version 3.0.1. I’m using a custom theme built on top of a theme called “Thirty Ten”. On search results pages, nothing is written into the navigation links. The HTML tags are there, but there is no text in them, so instead of <a href="...">Home</a> there is <a href="..."></a> and so on. Consequently the navigation menu disappears from the page.

@chase Thanks! I thought is was the ‘ single quote. Now I see it. So that’s what a backtick looks like.

@chase Adams is right. The global technique is best for anything but a one-time change. I don’t know @rebornsails website URL so I can’t look at the CSS.

I looked at the Constructor theme and assumed that
‘.hentry .entry p{
text-indent:12px;
margin-bottom:4px
}’
was the right general paragraph formatting. But @rebornsails – if you tell us your URL, I can check.

Note that you don’t need the single quotes on either end. It should look like this in your HTML window.

<p style=”margin-bottom:16px; margin-top:16px;”>This is your paragraph text.</p>

The case by case technique is the second one above.

Use the HTML editing window. Find the paragraph you want to add more space above and/or below, and insert the HTML <p> tag around it like this:

‘<p style=”margin-bottom:16px”>This is your paragraph text.</p>’

This adds 16 pixels of space below the paragraph. To add space above and below, you can use margin-top and margin-bottom like this:

‘<p style=”margin-bottom:16px; margin-top:16px;”>This is your paragraph text.</p>’

Be sure to click the Update button when you are finished.

As for eliminating the automatic indent, please give your URL so I can see what you mean and I’ll see if I can find the CSS responsible for it.

Oops. I meant “put the following code” not “put the follow code”

<p style="margin-bottom:16px">Put the following code before and after it.</p>

There are different ways to handle this. If you want space between paragraphs throughout your site, you can modify the Constructor style.css file.

Save a copy of the original style.css file in case anything goes wrong so you can restore the original. Open style.css in a text editor like notepad (for PC) and find

.hentry .entry p{
    text-indent:12px;
    margin-bottom:4px
}

Change it to

.hentry .entry p{
    text-indent:12px;
    margin-bottom:16px;
}

Save the file as style.css (that is, don’t change the name). If you are using Windows, make sure it doesn’t add .txt to the file name. Now use FTP software like WS_FTP (there’s a free trial) or Cute FTP on a PC to upload style.css and copy over the existing style.css.

You can adjust the margin-bottom value to your liking. Try 16 and see how it looks.

I’m assuming you know how to use FTP software, but that might not be true. Let me know if not.

You can also do this “manually” using in-line CSS. That’s fine for once or twice, but if you want your changes to apply to all paragraphs, it’s better to use the method above.

For in-line, in the HTML editor window of WordPress, you can do this to a paragraph.

Say you have some text like this.

Put the follow code before and after it.

<p style=”margin-bottom:16px”>Put the follow code before and after it.</p>

This upload PDF tutorial is for WordPress version 2.7 but the technique is still the same. Upload using Media Library > Add New. You can use “Insert into Post” from the Media Gallery panel after you have uploaded. Let me know if that doesn’t help.

I don’t have any insight into this problem, but I would like to know if you ever found any solution to the problem you were having 5 months ago with Flash and permalinks. I have a site that uses Flash navigation in the sidebar and banner – and also has embedded Flash in the body of several pages. It all works fine until I turn on custom permalinks. When I do that, none of the Flash will display – except on the home page – just as you describe it. I am using absolute URLs for the .swf and .flv files, but this does not seem to matter.

This is the first time I have tried to find information about it and I’m very surprised at how little is available, especially here on www.ads-software.com.

Thanks!

I encountered the same problem with WordPress 2.7 – no page template dropdown options other than the default (in both the add new page window and in the Quick Edit window) – and this fixed the problem for me, too.

It’s worth noting that there are other problems with the 2.7 interface like this that I have solved by doing the same: switch to default theme and then back to your new theme. I can’t recall what the problem was exactly, but I know I solved it this way. Since it’s easy and quick, it’s always a good thing to try first.
