Hi,

Forgot to ask. Do I need to submit the new URLS (without the date, month, year) to Google Search Console or will Google penalise me because the older URLS are already indexed. Also, has this got to do anything with the sitemap? I am using Yoast so should I create a new sitemap and submit it to Search Console?

Thanks

Okay, thanks. I installed the redirection plugin and did all the redirects. The earlier URLs with the year, month and time were looking ugly and I am sure such URLs are not search-engine friendly. In my first WP site, this was not so. I wonder why by default WP put it this way in the later versions. A simple URL with just the post heading is good enough and also good for SEO.

Since I had posted my articles on social media, I chose the option ‘Ignore all Parameters’ in the plugin or else the older links were getting redirected only when placed directly in the browser. But when I clicked the ones posted on Facebook, it would give me an error. When I chose the ‘ignore all parameters’ option it worked fine even from facebook.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. What if I do not want to add redirects? Can I remove the old links from Google (more specifically Google Search Console).
I believe for a new site this will be better.

Thanks

Thanks. It will take some days or maybe a week to know whether the issue has been resolved because Google will check it again. In any case, I have flagged the issue as ‘fixed’ in the search console.

I changed the permalink settings to post name only and then the issue got resolved. Thanks.

Thanks a lot, George. I changed the permalink settings and it worked! Thanks once again.

I deleted my site (it was just a one-page site) and created a new site with a fresh WordPress installation but still I am getting the same issue. I am clueless what I should do now.

I did what you advised but it is not working. The sitemap continues to point to the homepage.

The sitemap was already enabled! I removed the Yoast plugin and installed it again but still, I am getting the same issue. It is just a one-page site but still, this is happening.

I did copy the code manually but found no place to put in.

Thanks. I will look into that.

Hi,

My site is https://www.dogward.com

On the homepage you will a drop down box with many languages – this is the GTranslate plugin and the plugin developer only provided me the code given below and asked me to put it in the homepage. I do not want to meddle with the home page code but just want CSS that I can put in the usual appearance->customize->css area.

With most of the languages, when you choose them (choose Bengali or any other language) and see for yourself, the page gets translated but the letters are too large and somewhat disturb the aesthetics. Only English being the default language is proper in size. That is why I want the CSS code for the homepage only (the blogs, main body are all okay). The stuff written “Dogs have been companions…” is inside a text editor from the elementor plugin and this is where the font size needs to change. I have, a short while ago, added ‘Man’s Best Friend’ in a separate header box so the size of this also might need to change so if you can give code for this also, it will be great.

I only got the following code from the plugin support group. I need the rest related to the home page and text. Thanks a lot.

html[lang=”es”] body {font-size:110%;}

Hi,

thanks for your response. Please visit my site https://www.dogward.com
On the homepage you will find text written “Dogs have been companions……”
This text is inside a text editor (I am using elementor along with OceanWP0. I want to change the font size within this text editor only and too only on the home page.
If you click the language dropbox, you will see the text in that language. I want to reduce the size of the fonts of the translated language. The creator of the translation plugin gave me the code below but it is changing the font size all across the site. I want css that changes only inside the chosen text editor on the home page.

html[lang=”es”] body {font-size:110%;}

Hi

Please visit my site https://www.dogward.com

1) I want to change the font size only on the home page. On the home page, the text that is written is inside a text editor (I use elementor as the page builder and Oceanwp as the theme). So, can you give me the CSS that focuses only on the home page and the text editor?

2) Also, please choose the language Tamil and you will see that, in the current configuration, it is messing up the home page. The photos appear in half. Is there any turn around for this? If with the CSS code that you provide, I can reduce the font size for Tamil without messing up the home page, then I am okay with it.

Thanks

Hi,

I got the language codes from the web but the code for changing the font size did work at times and at other times it did not. I want to change the font size only in my home page.

Thanks
