Hi all
I too have been trying to get you guys to add the Yoast hook to the theme. Yoast have provided information on their Knowledge Base for developers to integrate their API so that ALL images can be indexed with the Yoast Sitemap.
Let me assure everyone that this DOES make a difference to have them in the sitemap. Whether you use Masonry, Gallery or Image elements on your pages Yoast needs to be able to read them. Currently they cannot. It is good practice to put images into a sitemap.
If you are serious about marketing your theme as ‘SEO ready’ there are some very big holes you need to fill guys. This is just one of them. Please do something. I have lost 80% of my images from where I used to be since swapping to your theme. It is excellent by the way but there are some things that are very very frustrating for those people who know what they are doing.
This mentions how Yoast tried to parse shortcode content without success but may have information on the hook they left in for developers: https://yoast.com/wordpress-seo-content-analysis/
C’mon guys, this is important please…
Thanks
EdYou are really missing a massive opportunity to sell your theme – AMP is already providing some people with massive increases in traffic.
Some may go looking for another theme if you’re not going to do anything about – that would be a shame as Enfold is awesome. C’mon guys, can we get an official word please?
Thanks

Google’s Accelerated Mobile Pages project
AMP is already giving websites an edge – especially sites with posts (rather than pages). Some WP sites have already reported huge increases in traffic as they are the early winners because they have developed their front end to comply with Google’s framework.
Enfold could really use this as a positive selling point as no other developers I can find have anything done anything about it yet.
Can you please raise the urgency of this to Kriesi?
The plugin by WP is good but the theme needs work to comply – I tried it and images are not contained and no menus appear – but I’m sure there are a host of other integration issues that need addressing.
Just saying that this would be a massive leap forward for you if you got it done.Thanks

EdHi Yigit
That doesn’t fix the problem – it still exists.
I have had to remove all masonry galleries to avoid the issue.
Just so you know
Regards
EdOK thanks Yigit; I have amended the minimum gap a little so i will see how that goes..
Thank you very much for your help.
Regards
EdHi Yigit
Thankyou – that does cure most of the issue but I’m afraid that’s made the menu way too long!!!! This was the issue with using long separators – now the iPad (where 70% of my visitors are) shows the menu overlapping. I cannot have that.
I have sized the menu exactly to fit Landscape on an iPad and it look great – whilst I appreciate you closing the gap on the menu it has now caused another problem
If it’s a problem my friend then let’s leave it the way it was and I’ll live with it for now.Thanks
EdHi Yigit
None of the options work as you suggest. The physical depth of the menu is now much bigger than before the update. Like I show in the photos. Changing the separator height to small or large makes no difference. So how can I change the height back to narrow like it used to be?

EdIts on an iPad Air and iOS on the iPhone6 using the very latest iOS versions. I have tested the issue in one of the shops that sells iPhones and it does it on that too – so a completely random handset.
Thanks for your help.
Regards
EdI’m having the exact same problem – latest iOS on iPhone and iPad Air.
Everything is up to date (theme version, iOS version). I have to scroll down with my finger before any images render.
Can we get this looked at please?
Thanks
EdThis is the page where the Masonry issue is:
http://www.swarez.co.uk/original-art-for-sale/Thanks Josue; I would appreciate it and hope it will help everyone who uses the theme and Yoast.

EdI would argue that a system file wasn’t content anyway and if you try to take someone to a homepage or blog post that could look strange. It’s OK to return 404’s as content will inevitably move or change along with URL’s over the lifetime of a site. Customizing a 404 page is a good move to reassure the user.
I personally favour redirects to like pages with similar content rather than sending every 404 URL somewhere else.
“Google is indexing all these random pages based on Enfolds framework”.
It’s a better option to use the robots.txt file to prevent Google from crawling URL’s you don’t want it too.
It is possible that redirecting a theme file/folder to the homepage could be seen as an unhealthy redirect. After all why would someone land on the Enfold theme folder URL anyway? I doubt that would ever appear in the SERPS.If you have a URL that doesn’t really have a relevant redirect (in order to maintain the UX) then either leave it as a 404 in Webmaster Tools or use the robot.txt file to prevent the crawl.
For example I have:
User-agent: *Allow: /
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Disallow: /wp-content/plugins/
Disallow: /wp-content/themes/enfold/framework/
Disallow: /feed/
Disallow: */feed/
Disallow: /wp-content/themes/enfold/config-layerslider/May be better to notify the crawlers to simply not crawl the URL’s you specify.
Hope that helps
EdWow! Thanks man; that’s a very cool thing to say! Although I seem to spend more time with my site that I do painting!
But grateful for the feedback Josue, thankyou…
Hi Josue
My hero! Thank you so very much!
You saved the day again!
Huge thanks to you my friend.
Best wishes
EdThankyou… That is correct for Masonry but the problem remains on Galleries.

Cache flushed and cleared.
Is this the same issue?
Cheers
EdThanks Josue
I have checked a few random images and they look fine; just a pity some have defaulted to only loading the 1030px versions – guess that one will remain a mystery.
Thanks for your help
Regards
EdI am looking all over the site in detail now and there are plenty of over-sized images but NONE will go bigger than 1033px so it seems. Is there a parameter or event handler that defines the maximum width of a displayed image in Lightbox?
Just a thought if it helps…
Cheers
EdHi Josue
Yes I did a regenerate on that file plus a few new ones on a new Portfolio item that has done the same thing – defaulted to 1033px version not the 1210px original version.
Regenerated and flushed but no change in Child-Theme functions.php.
Sorry man
regards
EdHi Josue
Doesn’t work I’m afraid. Added to functions.php in child theme and nothing. Removed and added to functions.php instead in the main them and it breaks the site.
Any other ideas?
Thanks Ed
Hi Josue
I just regenerated that image alone – now it’s replaced the original file with the 1030x844px version!!! All others remain the original ones. Now I am worried that if I regenerate all images I will get smaller versions defaulting into the lIghtbox which is the opposite of what I want.
I used to have a code fix that allowed me to change the JS file to tell the Lightbox to display the native image and get rid of the need to use the 1030px version.
Can that be located please? Is that the solution?
Your help is appreciated.
regards
EdSure, try this:
http://www.swarez.co.ukTry this page and load the Lightbox: Gallery of Purchased Art
The picture with the sculptured heads looking forward is 1210px x 992px. However when you click to load the Lightbox I get a smaller version (i.e. it doesn’t meet the edge of my 1210px layout). File is called ‘Spirit of the Dance’ and looks like this: http://www.swarez.co.uk/images10/Untitled-2.jpg
Thanks
EdGuys
I’m experiencing similar issues. I too do NOT have that plugin installed but see Portfolio items duplicated in Masonry Grids where that particular category is NOT selected for display. Very odd and confusing. Like they just appear for no reason!
Am watching this post with interest.
Thanks for the awesome theme too. Still the best.Cheers
EdHi Devin
I hear you; thought that would be the case. Thankyou for clearing that up for me.
With grateful thanks
Ed
