I would always suggest a staging website, or create a dummy site and I'm unsure if you have the confidence in de-activating plugins etc. but the first place I would start is deactivating the classic editor.

@itssimondigital

Жыл бұрын

Hello, there are a few questions to ask. You might be using Elementor to have designed your website but are you publishing posts in Gutenburg? What theme are you using? Within your theme settings (or if you're hoping to change one post do this inside the 'edit post' option for individual posts) you need to look for 'content layout' and for terms such as 'boxed, content boxed, full width/ contained, full width/ stretched'. Click on each content layout style, preview the post (making sure you're cache is clear) and have a look. Did that work?

Hope that helps. If i haven't answered please let me know.

@itssimondigital

2 жыл бұрын

Hello, it is possible i have done this. Last time was 1-2 weeks ago. It depends on your theme or page builder. It might depend if you're using the free or pro version. option 1 - theme - Some themes allow you to change the position within the customise pannel. There might be a 'single blog archive' click in there and rearrange the order of the featured image. option 2 - page builder - create a blog template and style it exactly how you want. option 3 - child theme - its possible to change this using code. the above two are easier. what theme/ page builder are you using?

Hi, I think keyword density and counting how many keywords is a bit of an old school train of thought. The best way forward is to write what you know and be concise. In terms of a %, there are no hard and fast rules for keyword density - just don't stuff keywords in there for the sake of it.

Try FreePik, Unsplash, Vecteezy (I have not used these). Please make sure you read the websites and individual photo T&C's. Some times they display premium photos but the vast majority are free. Sometimes they ask you to credit the photographer some say its optional. Their T&C's will explain. You can use schema to credit the photographer but that's abit advanced. Hope that helps!!!

Hello, if a user on your website clicks on your blog page, they should see all your blog posts. Have you accidentally published your post as a 'draft' or published it as 'private'? If you have no worries, just go back into the WordPress editor (if that's where you wrote it), and press publish 'public'. The blog posts which do show are they all from a specific category or tag? I wonder if your blog page has been set up to show only certain types of posts or if it has been created to hide 'uncategorised' posts. Unlikely, but worth checking.
