OK, thanks for the follow-up. Yes, I understood what you and Ying said earlier, that GeneratePress doesn’t modify the post loop. I mentioned the “home.php” thing as an explanation of why I posted here in the first place: because the first time I placed it, it didn’t override index.php, for whatever reason, so I thought GP was maybe altering normal behavior. Once it did work, I realized what you said, that it’s not a GeneratePress issue or function! Cheers! ??

@leohsiang Since you mention it, what would the correct method be? I’m reading how-tos, figuring out as I go. Instead of an index.php or home.php in the child theme, I might try a custom index page template by setting the homepage to static and selecting it. I read a bit about the pre_get_posts action hook, that didn’t seem like it would work for multiple loops.

OK, thanks! Putting “home.php” in the child theme didn’t seem to work, so I wasn’t sure what was going on, but it was maybe a cache problem, because it’s working now.

Thanks! But where in the theme is the standard blog loop called, so I can replace it?

@cybr @rizaardiyanto Thanks!! And…wow! Quick, cordial, collaborative, productive all around. There’s hope for the world yet! ??

@cybr: The page is generated by the plugin this thread supports: <span style=”text-decoration: underline;”>Issues and Series for Newspapers, Magazines, Publishers, Writers</span> by PublishPress. It’s a table of contents for collections of posts that have been grouped into series.

“Untitled” appears as the browser page title, in the TITLE tag in the header (I should’ve been clearer in my original question, apologies!).

Tracked down the problem. It’s somehow conflicting with The SEO Framework plugin. With SEO disabled, I get the page title I entered in Series Settings. I could add my site name there in Settings as well: “Series Toc Page Title – My Site Name”. Right now, it’s “Untitled – My Site Name”.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Otherwise, I realize the problem is on my end, so I’ll try to figure it out! Thanks!

Thanks for the quick reply!

Hi. Any news on this. I’d like to install the plugin, but want to be sure that the API warning doesn’t apply in this case. Thanks!

I’m having a problem with not being able to turn of the upgrade notice as well, it keeps popping up, over and over. I guess from the timestamp on your response above, you’re fixing that, if so, cool.

The specific annoyance for me is that I keep thinking it’s a alert about something on the active site. And once I see it’s not, the annoyance is, “OK, if it’s not really free, just charge for it and be done, don’t say it’s free, and then tax me through nagging.” ??

As a bit of appreciative user feedback: I run a couple of low-traffic personal sites, and one site for an entrepreneurial idea that I’ve been working on for a few months, and by the odds will probably go nowhere as a business, but at least I’m enjoying it.

I’m all for open source, and have contributed to projects (doing documentation) in the past as a way to balance the “free”. For WordPress, I appreciate solid plugins, and am most confident in a plugin when it has a decent user base, and seems to be supporting itself financially, even if I’m using a free version.

I also pay for WordPress themes and plugins as I use them over time. I don’t have a huge budget for this, so I choose carefully. I bought Genesis framework and a paid theme a while ago, and then stopped using it. I’m currently paying for GeneratePress (awesome). I’ve subscribed to GravityForms for several years (I replaced GF with HappyForms for a basic contact form). And there are a couple of other paid items that I’m using or have used.

I read through the HappyForms pricing before I started using it. And I even clicked and reread it the first time I saw the new upgrade banner (kinda out of respect :). If I need a premium feature, and have come to trust HappyForms, I’d gladly pay. And if a site became revenue-generating, I’d pay for all of the core plugins that I could afford, just in support.

I’m posting all this as market research feedback, because there are probably quite a few others that fit this profile. Hopefully it’s of some use.

So far, HappyForms is great. Thanks!

This may not be a bug, just how LearnPress lessons display. I tried it with different themes, and also checked it out in the LP demo, and they’re all the same.

It kinda makes sense that lessons are positioned over any wrapping code from the theme, so that the 2-column set-up is guaranteed to work.

It’s not super-convenient for custom styling. I’ve changed and hidden some stuff with CSS, and the templates look somewhat promising for modifications.

Too bad there’s no forum on the LP dev site, there seem to be forums only for individual paid products. It would be useful to share.

Gonna try LifterLMS also. I’d like to develop the site first, then start paying. Paid choice could be LearnPress (premium add-ons), or LearnDash (more likely), or Thinkific (service), which I’m also trying free right now.

I am having what seems like exactly the same problem. Courses page is fine in the theme, but Lessons page displays on top of the header, navigation, and sidebar, and hides them. I can see because I looked in page source, all the code is there, but the Lessons code appears after the theme footer.

The plugin is great, I would love to use it, but it’s not working for Lessons. Thanks.

I changed the user_login field in the wp_users table, using phpMyAdmin. Worked fine!

Thanks!

For what it’s worth, I’m seeing the same problem that started this thread: TfW works sometimes, but mostly it displays, “No public Twitter messages.”

I installed it a couple of days ago. I haven’t noticed any pattern to when it does display. It’s set with (“twitterusername”, 5), but it was the same behavior with the default (“twitterusername”).

I’m using TfW 1.9.3 with WP 2.7.1. According to SiteMeter, loading at end of all pages, I average about 40 visits and 80 pageviews per hour.

I’m wondering how this is making it past Akismet, which is stopping most everything else.
