    I have read most everything I can on the internet about the WP Post format. “Aside”. The conclusion of most of the articles is that Theme developers treat Post formats uniquely.

    I think I have had more of my legacy posts being auto tagged from Standard to Aside by the Enfold theme.

    Can you provide anything specific to how Enfold processes legacy Posts and how/if it works with WordPress to auto tag legacy posts. (2010-2011) from Standard to Aside ?

    I am really only interested what Enfold does, please don’t send me off to any external links as I have read about 20 hours of what the internet provides and I did not see any relevant content to solve this problem with my web content.

    I was wondering if there is code within the theme anywhere that is resetting Post format from standard to Aside. Or if there is any easy way with enfold to retag asides to Standard. Again don’t send me off to changing my Enfold theme to XYZ theme to use that themes feature. I tried it on three themes already and it did not work…….

    I am a bit perplexed how to go forward here within Enfold and whatever (if any) advise would be appreciated. I currently have to manually filter all asides, the reedit each post format from aside back to standard. I never have changed a post format to Aside myself, it is being auto generated and I think by Enfold…. I just want to confirm that and then see if it is possible to de activate.

    thanks for any advise you can provide !

    Hi Ed!

    Enfold does not use the “aside” post format. If you see the aside format when editing your posts then your most likely using a plugin which is adding that in.

    You can see the formats Enfold uses on line 469 in the functions.php file.

    add_theme_support( 'post-formats', array('link', 'quote', 'gallery','video','image','audio' ) );
    

    Cheers!

    Thanks Elliott for the feedback. Im not using any plugin to add aside format, I don’t want Post coded as aside, somehow some early content has been retagged without my knowledge… I am hoping that it is a legacy issue when I changed themes to Enfold a year ago..I am just getting around to looking into it and see how to cleanup and prevent. ….it could be that the prior theme had coded these posts…as aside….I’ll keep an eye on…the earliest Post was date Mar 11….

    In any event, your are saying that there is nothing in enfold which would retagged older post from Standard to Aside..

    Hi!

    Yes, you should not have the aside option if your using Enfold. We do not have any CSS for asides either so I’m not really sure what your seeing. It’s most likely coming from a plugin so I would try deactivating them all.

    Cheers!

    thanks…deactivating plugins a bad option… If you think about it, I may have 60 posts that need to have the aside reset to standard…so I need to have visibility to those posts to rework and reset the asides..I’ll figure it out…hopefully it does not come around to be an enfold issue…but at this point you say no, so I’ll continue with my workflow and update and reprise legacy content… right now I understand that you do provide any support for Post Formats…That include a section on the Post design page …

    A Post Format is a piece of meta information that can be used by a theme to customize its presentation of a post. The Post Formats feature provides a standardized list of formats that are available to all themes that support the feature. Themes are not required to support every format on the list. New formats cannot be introduced by themes or even plugins

    Thats why I believe the Aside format on my post was brought into enfold , I don’t think they are being auto generated… but Ill watch it//

    thanks ..you can close the thread….if something comes up I’ll start a new one
