When editing the home page, if I click the Preview button or the Update button, when it opens the new tab, it gives the error “Sorry, the post you are looking for is not available. Maybe you want to perform a search?”

After getting the error, I updated to WordPress 5.0.3, then switched back to the classic editor, and am still getting the same error message. The error only occurs, though, when I’m working with the home page; any other page that I edit can be previewed with no errors.

I am using Enfold 4.4.1

Hello–I’m a little behind the times and trying to upgrade my Enfold theme as part of my managed WordPress v5.0.3/PHP version 5.6 site. Whenever I try to upgrade the theme, I get this error:

“Downloading update from …
An error occurred while updating Enfold: Download failed. A valid URL was not provided.”

I searched the forums and found that the moderator in this thread: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/enfold-4-5-theme-update-update-failed-download-failed-a-valid-url-was-not-pro/ said to open a new thread if you were having trouble.

So, I’m opening up a new thread. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi

I am having difficulty with a website I’ve recently launched:

using the current Enfold theme.

The client was keen for it to be launched quickly to replace an old site, so I did that.
Everything appeared to work well in desktop and mobile browsers, so the launch went ahead.
It was only when I installed Yoast SEO and discovered an alert that the home page couldn’t be indexed by googlebot.
Sure enough, from within Google Search Console it was confirmed there was a 5xx error. I thought this was odd since there’s no indication of any problem with normal browsing.
In my troubleshooting, I’ve done numerous online searches for people encountering similar problems.
I’ve looked at robots.txt, htaccess, theme configurations etc. but so far I’ve drawn a blank.
I’ve now deactivated all extraneous WordPress plugins (except for Yoast SEO) and still Google can’t index the site’s home page. Other pages on the site seem to have been indexed okay and are appearing in the search results.
I’ve wondered if there could be a legacy issue, because the new website replaces a previous one (by a different designer using a different theme). I’d renamed all the old pages and put them in the WordPress ‘bin’.

In twenty-odd years, I’ve never encountered anything like this.

What is also different on this occasion, is that the domain and website are hosted by GoDaddy on this client’s own account. Could GoDaddy’s system have cached outdated settings somehow that are still being served?

Note: Although Search Console was initially showing a 5xx error, other validation sites appear to be showing 404 errors – even though the new site has always worked in browsers.

It’s a real puzzle that I’d welcome your thoughts and suggestions on.

Thanks

Hi! I am trying to get our page to look like this one: https://kriesi.at/themes/enfold-church/events/month/

I have installed latest version of Enfold and latest version of Events Calendar. However, it is not displaying correctly! The gray at the top is not going edge to edge. The search bars are not spaced correctly, etc.

Here is our site: http://ambassadorschristiancenter.com/events/

Also, I’ve noticed the same issue in other Enfold installations: https://www.cornellrec.org/events/list/

Please advise! Thank you!

Hi all,

I’m wanting round buttons for a site I’m working on and am having no luck applying some custom CSS code that I’ve found in previous searches.

The button is embedded in a color section, pretty much like the Enfold Construction demo. Likewise, it appears that font size changes to a text block inside the color section aren’t working either, does it have something to do with being embedded in the color section?

Hello, I have been using enfold in several webs. (example: https://iomm.es/ – http://clinicadosio.com/…..) And in all of theme I can see search icon just before the burguer menu, but not in this site: faceclinic.es, do you know why?

Thank you, Carmen

Hello,
I have given our portfolio items a noindex. A website audit finds now a lot of this portfolio items with the notation /?s at the end of the url.
An example is: /portfolio-item/damen-marine-systems/?s=

I assume this search option is added by Enfold but how can I avoid this? and:
• should I avoid this if this is possible?
• should I set the portfolio item on noindex, or is it better to index them?

Best regards,
Henk

Hi,
I constantly use this forum to get answers for customisation I want to do to a site. I found some code to paste to the bottom of the functions.php that took off the “Archive for Category” and all the other variations. I have just updated by site to the latest version of Enfold and it obviously replaced the functions.php that I had modified so I went in and repasted it from a saved version but it still doesn’t work. I thought it might be cached so I went to another browser that I rarely use to check it and no it’s still there…..grrrrrrrrrr. This is the code I am using (see below) what am I doing wrong? and How do I get rid of those words please.

function avia_which_archive()
{
$output = “”;

if ( is_category() )
{
$output = __(‘Archive for category:’,’avia_framework’).” “.single_cat_title(”,false);
}
elseif (is_day())
{
$output = __(‘Archive for date:’,’avia_framework’).” “.get_the_time( __(‘F jS, Y’,’avia_framework’) );
}
elseif (is_month())
{
$output = __(‘Archive for month:’,’avia_framework’).” “.get_the_time( __(‘F, Y’,’avia_framework’) );
}
elseif (is_year())
{
$output = __(‘Archive for year:’,’avia_framework’).” “.get_the_time( __(‘Y’,’avia_framework’) );
}
elseif (is_search())
{
global $wp_query;
if(!empty($wp_query->found_posts))
{
if($wp_query->found_posts > 1)
{
$output = $wp_query->found_posts .” “. __(‘search results for:’,’avia_framework’).” “.esc_attr( get_search_query() );
}
else
{
$output = $wp_query->found_posts .” “. __(‘search result for:’,’avia_framework’).” “.esc_attr( get_search_query() );
}
}
else
{
if(!empty($_GET[‘s’]))
{
$output = __(‘Search results for:’,’avia_framework’).” “.esc_attr( get_search_query() );
}
else
{
$output = __(‘To search the site please enter a valid term’,’avia_framework’);
}
}

}
elseif (is_author())
{
$curauth = (get_query_var(‘author_name’)) ? get_user_by(‘slug’, get_query_var(‘author_name’)) : get_userdata(get_query_var(‘author’));
$output = __(‘Author Archive’,’avia_framework’).” “;

if(isset($curauth->nickname) && isset($curauth->ID))
{
$name = apply_filters(‘avf_author_nickname’, $curauth->nickname, $curauth->ID);
$output .= __(‘for:’,’avia_framework’) .” “. $name;
}

}
elseif (is_tag())
{
$output = __(‘Tag Archive for:’,’avia_framework’).” “.single_tag_title(”,false);
}
elseif(is_tax())
{
$term = get_term_by( ‘slug’, get_query_var( ‘term’ ), get_query_var( ‘taxonomy’ ) );
$output = __(‘Archive for:’,’avia_framework’).” “.$term->name;
}
else
{
$output = __(‘Archives’,’avia_framework’).” “;
}

if (isset($_GET[‘paged’]) && !empty($_GET[‘paged’]))
{
$output .= ” (“.__(‘Page’,’avia_framework’).” “.$_GET[‘paged’].”)”;
}

$output = apply_filters(‘avf_which_archive_output’, $output);

return $output;
}

Good afternoon

Within Enfold I set our custom 404 page to be our Front Page.

Google Search Console as well as Screaming Frog SEO Spider, both then began showing that our homepage was returning a 404 even though the page itself worked and displayed fine.

This indicates that Enfold/Wordpress automatically return a 404 whenever the page set to be the custom 404 page is called up, even if that page isn’t accessed due to a real 404 error. This is obviously improper.

Further, after the Custom 404 option was disabled a 404 error was still being returned any time the homepage was accessed. That error finally went away when the Custom 404 option was reenabled, a different page selected, and the Custom 404 page disabled again.

This indicates that Enfold/Wordpress is returning a 404 on the selected page even if the Custom 404 option is disabled, which is also improper.

Perhaps it’s not best-practice to use one’s homepage as a 404 page, but it certainly isn’t best practice to return a 404 on one’s homepage either. It would probably be advisable to introduce a check to determine whether or not the page selected as one’s custom 404 page is also set to their Front Page, and if so, do not return a 404 error.

Thanks.
