Are you hacking WordPress core files to do this?
If so, this is the stylesheet you’d need to edit: /wp-includes/js/tinymce/themes/advanced/skins/wp_theme/content.css?ver=327-1235

There may very well be a less hackish way to do this, but I don’t know it off the top of my head.

Are there any other page template files with the the theme?

The code you provided looks like it might be the default page template, but I don’t think that’s the one being used.

The one provided has <div id="content"> near the top, but if I view source on the pages of https://www.vancouverfruittree.com, it has <div id="content_noSidebar"> instead.

My first guess would be to check whether or not Cookies are enabled.

I’ve put a modified demo of this theme here: https://wp.trepmal.com/

Let me know if that has the intended behavior
(I’ve limited mine to only show a maximum of 2 posts per page to make the paging effect more evident)

First thing, if you can get to your main stylesheet (https://heybabestudio.com/wp-content/themes/constructor/style.css) there’s a missing bracket that could be causing unexpected formatting issues (or not causing expected ones…)

The style that begins at line 304 (.hentry .title h1 a) isn’t closed (https://cl.ly/2QBG) I don’t know what you know about CSS, so just to be on the safe side, you should put a closing curly bracket } just after the highlighted text in the screenshot.

Here’s what I see before: https://cl.ly/2QL9
and after: https://cl.ly/2PoN

However, I noticed this caused the post titles to disappear. This can be fixed by change the display:none; reference in the next two styles to display:block (or simply remove the references altogether)

try get_the_author_meta( 'first_name' , 'ID')

of course, ID should be the actual user ID

I see you have the “Next Page” and “More” links at the bottom of your home page – is this the functionality you’re trying to replicate on the other pages?

If so, duplicate what you have on that page (index.php) and add it to the archives page (archive.php), category page (category.php) and search page (search.php).

This plugin has worked very well for me: https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/exclude-pages/

You may be able to access this from Appearance > Background (https://cl.ly/2Nhd)

If you don’t see this option, your active theme isn’t setup to work with this feature. In that case, you’ll probably need to upload the file through the Media Library (or FTP) and edit the theme styles manually.

If you can provide more info about your theme, I may be able to give some more specific instruction – if you need/want it.

I’m afraid I don’t have much experience with these particular areas – all I can really recommend is Google…

The shortcode can be added directly to your page/post (no need to edit theme files).
This has a few advantages:
* no need to mess with php – no risk of breaking your theme
* if the plugin is disabled, you won’t get an error (template tags left behind could break your theme)
* can be inserted within your content, rather than limited to before or after

As far as supercache – I haven’t used it – but it looks like it should update itself when content is updated (https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/plugin-wp-super-cache-should-i-clear-the-cache-periodically-for-this-plugin?replies=3)

I know that Quick Cache does. Quick cache also makes it really easy to clear cache manually.

Doing an ‘author’ search for ‘trepmal’ should bring it up.

Shortcode is [amrp] and it accepts the same parameters as the template tag.

(‘true’ becomes 1, ‘false’ becomes 0)

So this:
<ul>[amrp limit=3 excerpt=150 firstimage=1 w=50 h=50]</ul>

returns the same info as what I posted previously:

<ul><?php
    if (is_front_page()) {
        $params = array('limit'=>3, 'excerpt'=>150, 'firstimage'=>true, 'w' =>50, 'h' => 50 );
        yg_recentposts($params);
    }
?></ul>

I know the support forums here aren’t always the easiest to work with… but Automattic has been working on some upgrades – hopefully to make it easier for plugin/theme authors to answer questions.

The plugin I mentioned is the same one I posted earlier. It’s primarily a widget – but has the new shortcode option as well as the template tag.

Officially releasing it on www.ads-software.com means that it’ll be easier for users to get updates, and there will be a better home for support questions.

If you have quick questions, I can be reached on twitter, @trepmal.

I’d definitely check out the forums to see if someone has already had the same question (https://www.ads-software.com/support/).
If not, starting a new thread will make it easier for someone who’s researching the same question to find the thread (and hopefully an answer).

Also there are tons of WordPress-centric blogs out there that cover beginner and advanced topics (for example: https://wpbeginner.com/) – if you haven’t already, you might bookmark/subscribe to a couple.

(BTW, my plugin mod is now officially available: https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/advanced-most-recent-posts-mod/)

There’s a lot of MS Word code in there that could be messing things up – I’d recommend cleaning that up as much as possible. Then run the page though the W3C validator again https://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=https://www.cars-n-bikes.com/

As far as a user access plugin, I stumbled across this just the other day, adminimize. Haven’t had a chance to test it, but it has nice ratings.
