[Support request] Several issues

[Maarten]

Hi,

First of all I would like to address that since I have installed GP (premium), my wordpress admin is loading very slowly. It takes about 10 – 20 seconds before it is loaded. Not sure what to do about that. Do you have any ideas on this issue?

Second; on the category pages there is no button visible for the articles, like a ‘READ MORE’ button, while I do have turned it on in the Customizer (example: https://traineatsleep.nl/category/fitness/

Third, I have issues with indexing articles in Google. I know GP is not responsible for this, but the articles on this website (traineatsleep.nl) are mostly moved from several websites to this one (of course with 301 redirections given). Before the articles where visible in search results, and now articles are not specifically visible as blog, but the categories or even the homepage (with the blog-overview) is shown in search results. But lot of them are not shown at all, while before they were. Do you have any thoughts on that (this is the biggest issue btw) since this is costing me visitors.

I hope you have any ideas and solutions for these issues.

Thank you sincerely!

Hi Maarten,

1. I tried opening your admin dashboard, and it’s loading fine from my end. Is it still loading slow from your end? If you disable GP Premium, does the issue go away? Can you reach out to your hosting provider and see if they have insights with regards to this? This is usually server related.

2. You have Custom Excerpts on your posts, and by WordPress default, this disables the Read more link. To override this, refer to this article: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/activating-read-custom-excerpt/

3. Have you tried asking Google to recrawl your site? You might need to do so. See: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/crawling-indexing/ask-google-to-recrawl

[Maarten]

Thank you.

2. Where do I have to put the code?

3. Thank you, will check this out.

Hi Maarten,

2. It’s the PHP code, you can use one of the methods introduced in below article:

Okay, thank you.

Do you know how I can adjust the top right box in top widget (see succesvoorhetoprapen.nl)
I can not seem to delete this coloured box or just edit color, frame settings etc.

Another question, do you know how I can add testimonials with GenerateBlocks or another way? I would like to add a small picture of the person who gave the testimonial, with the text and the firstname. Dont know how to do this properly. Thank you.

I can’t view the link succesvoorhetoprapen.nl. It’s on Maintenance Mode. Can you turn it off temporarily?

As for the Testimonial, if you have GenerateBlocks Pro, you can import a template from the Pattern Library: https://generateblocks.com/library/?pattern-category=testimonial

Otherwise, you’ll need to create it from scratch. Here’s a video you may refer to with regards to using GenerateBlocks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7fwJECtgSg

The background color of the 1st widget in sidebar is added by this CSS, you should be able to find it at customzier > additional CSS.

/* Featured widget */
.sidebar .widget:first-child,
.sidebar .widget:first-child .widget-title{
	background-color: #83b0de;
	color: #fff;
}

How can I change the footer? I see infooter this website is made with GeneratePress. In customizer I can not change any of it.

Thank you. also, please view succesvoorhetoprapen.nl. In the sidebar widget you can not see a featured images on recent blogs. When i am logged in wordpress and i go to the website i do can see them. I have featured images enabled. Why is it not viewd normally when not logged in? Thats kind of weird isnt it?
