Hi Mike again :)

Thanks for the quick reply :)

I was able to add the code you have suggested and worked. I just changed the selector from querySelector(‘#top.single-post #main>.container_wrap>.container’) to querySelector(‘#top.single-post #main’) because was only grabbing first color section.
With this change i was able to grab all text (also the footer – if you know a better selector so it not grabs it, please let me know)

My main issue is that i have the shortcode on this site and also on many others (and some have hundreds of posts) and to manualy go change it to a replace it with the div is a nightmare and time consuming.
Is there any way to make this javascript to be added to a shortcode to the post?

thank you again for the great help.

Cheers

Hi Mike,

Yes that is right, and the main issue was that was pulling always the same content, on different posts.

But in the meantime I found that the previous team that was taking over the site, added a postslider.php in the child theme with some custom modifications, and some other changes. After I remove it (was no longer needed), everything started to work as should it be.

All posts when switching from Classic Editor to the Advanced Layout Builder the content as the correct one :)

Thank you for your help and patient.

Cheers

Hey Ismael,

I’m sorry about the login, you can try again, please.

I understand what you are saying about the difference between the editors. But from the experience I have with enfold every time i have content on the WordPress editor and turn on the Advance Layout Builder, the ALB turns all the content into a text element.

The issue here is that when i do that it turns to other content that is not the one was there.

I think that is the same issue that was with this threat https://kriesi.at/support/topic/wrong-post-title-when-using-shortcode/. it’s getting the wrong post id

let me know what you think.

Cheers

Hi Ismael,

I tried several options, and still grabs the wrong author.

function post_author_shortcode(){
	global $post;
	ob_start();
	$url=  get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( 'ID' ));
	$nameid= get_the_author_meta( 'ID', $author_id); 
	$name= get_the_author_meta( 'display_name', $author_id); 
	ob_end_clean();
	$output = '<a   class="post-author-name" href="' . $url . '">' . $nameid .' - '.  $name . '</a>' ;
	return ($output); 
}
add_shortcode( 'sc_post_author', 'post_author_shortcode' );

I checked and the author that should be showing is the ID 35 and not the 23. This is so strange. can you still help me figure this out.

Thank you

Hi Ismael,

Thank you for the help.
I just added the code and did not realized that was with the wp_head. It works as it’s supposed.

Thank you guys for the great help.
Have a great day

Cheers

That it is all

Thank you Rikard.

You can close it.

Hi Ismael,

Thank you for the quick reply.

I made the changes (replaced and moved below) and add the postslider.php to my child theme folder (into the shortcodes folder).

but i get the “critical error on this website”

What i may be doing wrong?

Thank you

Hi Günter,

Cheers

Hi Mike!

Yes you can close the ticket. The problem is solved.
Thanks again.

Hi Mike thanks for you reply.

i was looking to your suggestions and the portfolio masonry is almost what we need, is missing only the date.
Do you have a way to had it there?

Thanks

We have been in a bind over this for almost a month now with the site. We have deadlines approaching soon and could really use some attention on this – thanks in advance!

Hi Victoria,

Thanks for helping out.
I added the admin access credentials in the private content box.

I think this only happens in with masonry element. But we need to use this element, because of the filter option.

Hope you can help sort this out.
Thanks

Hi Mike,

Thanks for replaying and trying to figure out.

If i understand correctly, we have a category called “news” and some of the post there are post type as “link”. So there are not a loot.
Let me know if this help you write the small script.

Thank you again for the help

Cheers

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the quick replay.

I tried to disable the plugin “Page Links To” and test it. but it seams the issue is still there.

I will need to use the excerpt in the post field, because the client uses custom excerpts. I changed back the excerpt so we can test it.
Also if you go to link1, we have the same posts (with the excerpt in the post field, and other without ) and both work fine. The issue is only on the author post page (link2)

Maybe is a small fix on the author loop page

Thanks for your help
Cheers

So WP Engine has taken responsibility for this after pointing us in your direction initially…helps to get thru to 3rd line support :D

It appears WPE sets the cache control for all static files to 1 year. Here is their reply:

According to my notes – it looks like your main question is regarding why the theme (parent and child) style.css is reflecting a 1 year cache-control header:

cache-control: public, max-age=31536000
I can confirm that all static files on our platform, including css, js, images like jpg and png, and many others all are set to include a cache-control header of 1 year. So while the file comes from the theme, our server is what’s setting the cache length for that file in a user’s browser, and the 1 year timeframe is default!

Did you have questions about adjusting that timeframe or altering anything about cache-control headers, or were you just checking to confirm if that 1 year timeframe was correct?

I replied asking ‘I’d like to know why you set these to 1 year and how to override that?’ and they replied:

So these would be set at Nginx level: The default rule that is in place on the NGINX config is as follows. This is in place on all installs across our platform and would be the default rule which is set as it is viewed as the best cache control for performance purposes.

location ~* ^.+\.(?:jpe?g|gif|png|css|js|ico|zip|7z|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|do[ct][mx]?|xl[ast][bmx]?|exe|pdf|p[op][ast][mx]?|sld[xm]?|thmx?|txt|tar|midi?|wav|bmp|rtf|avi|mp\d|mpg|iso|mov|djvu|dmg|flac|r70|mdf|chm|sisx|sis|flv|thm|bin|swf|cert|otf|ttf|eot|svgx?|woff2?|jar|class|log|web[pma]|ogv)$ {
### MU Rules (Static) ###(none)###
if_modified_since before;
add_header Cache-Control “public, max-age=31536000”;
add_header Vary “Accept-Encoding”;
add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *;
}

We can alter this for you to a different max age if you wish. just let us know and we’ll be happy to help.

I’m closing the case with both parties now as we have a better understanding of the issue and have asked WPE NOT to set our cache control to 1 year as the style.css is obviously not a static file…

I appreciate your cooperation and patience on this.
