GenerateWP works fine. There is something else going on here.

Do you have debug logs enabled on your site?

Here is how you can do it.

Are the images visible in the post edit screen?

What is the code you’ve written till now.

Can you describe your issue in a bit more detail?
What do you mean by “uploading my old post from my database”?
Do you mean you restored the site from an old backup?

There are a couple of JavaScript issues with your site. You should fix them first.

For example, this code:

<script type="application/ld+json">
		{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Bus Rental Dubai & Sharjah with Drivers: Transport Services, Chauffeur, Coach Rental",
...
...

is nested inside another <script> tag, which is incorrect.
You shouldn’t nest one <script> tage inside another <script> tag

@shridsan2010 Could it be because of the caching plugin (Autooptimize) you’ve installed?

Do you mean that before you updated your WordPress version (from 4.4.12 to 5.x) you had 5000+ posts, and now you can see only 2?

Can you actually check in the database wp_posts table the status of the posts that don’t appear on wp-admin/posts section?

Is it MORE efficient to ask PHP to sort the results and then just pick the first result of the array?

In this case, it will be MySQL that will be doing the sorting. So you are offloading the task of sorting to mySQL , instead of having PHP do it. And will be a bit faster, compared to let PHP do the sorting.

BTW could you just remind me how to access the first post?

Try this:

$loop = new WP_Query( $args ); 
$posts = $loop->posts;

$first_post = $posts[0];

The problem is in your get_post_meta.

Your code is:
get_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-external-client-id', true );

In the first parameter, you have incorrectly passed $post_id which is the ID of the newly created post.
You should pass the ID of the post in the loop. So, use get_the_ID() instead.

Sidenote:
1. You should use wp_reset_postdata() after the while loop

2. You could also have the WP_Query so that the results are displayed in descending order of the value of the meta field.

$args = array(
    'post_type' => 'auction-client',
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'meta_key' => 'wpcf-external-client-id',
    'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
    'order' => 'DESC'
);

This way the first post in the loop will be the one with the highest value of ‘wpcf-external-client-id’. So you won’t need to loop through all the results; you’d be able to use just the first one.

function set_external_client_id( $post_id, $post, $update ) {
	if ( wp_is_post_revision( $post_id ) ) {
        return;
	}

	if ( 'auction-client' == $post->post_type ) {
		if( !$update ){
            $external_client_id = 1234;
            update_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-external-client-id', $external_client_id);
        }
	}
}
add_action( 'wp_insert_post', 'set_external_client_id', 10, 3 );

Out of curiosity, have you assigned a menu to the location “Primary Menu” (WP Admin => Appearances => Menu)?

Can you share the URL of your website? Its very hard to figure out whats happening without actually looking at the site

You have 2 options here:

1. Iframing the comment area of SiteA on SiteB

2. Write custom code to fetch the comments from the post on SiteA, and display
them on SiteA. You will need to connect to SiteA using WP REST API.

Which theme? I dont see it in the ‘twenty twentyone’ theme

I am not sure the drop down that says ‘custom fields’ on the page’s back end will go away

It is not advisable to look for bulk deleting the custom fields unless you are absolutely sure of the source that created the custom field.
The CFs could have been created by multiple plugins and themes.

You can however hide the ‘Custom Fields’ dropdown in the admin backend.
For that go to the backend, click on 3 dots in the top-right corner, and select ‘Preferences’ from the menu that comes up.
(see the screenshot here)

A lightbox will then appear, which will have ‘Custom Fields on the very bottom.
( See the screenshot here)

Unselect the checkbox that says ‘Cstom Fields’ and you are good to go
