If you just want to hide it from search engines, you can use a number of SEO plugins to noindex it, for example if you already have the following plugin installed, you can do it there:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/
If you want to password-protect a page you can do that from the page editor:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Password_Protection
And more specifically:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Password_Protection#Hiding_Password_Protected_Posts
There are of course .htaccess tricks we can use as well if none of these options suffice.
Great to hear.
The license warning is a bug, please ignore, should be fixed in a future update.
As for the slider, with your permission, we’ll just have to get in there and take a look.
Email sent. Be sure to check your spam folder as well.
Can you share some comparison screenshots that might help us understand the issue better?
Also, are you looking at the dashboard on one device/browser and the front-end, when logged out on another?
If so, the two devices might have different color profiles set and the two browsers might have different settings for font smoothing.
Can you share the full contents of your .htaccess file (considering there is no security-based code in there that should be kept private)?
Both topics have been merged.
1. That’s how it works, it will usually show the affiliate link on the affiliate’s site. Some businesses handle affiliate links better than others, but for the most part, you’ll be left with that ugly, spammy looking link and have no control over it at that point.
2. Add more like so:
rewriteengine on redirect /something-that-describes-the-link-here/ http://someaffiliatelinkhere.com/ redirect /something-that-describes-the-link-here/ http://someaffiliatelinkhere.com/ redirect /something-that-describes-the-link-here/ http://someaffiliatelinkhere.com/Moving to the SEO forum.
The cleanest way to handle affiliate links is via the .htaccess file.
Via FTP, you’ll want to access your website root (usually public_html) and find your .htaccess file (one can be created if you don’t see one).
You’ll want to download it and edit it in a text/code editor, adding:
rewriteengine on redirect /something-that-describes-the-link-here/ http://someaffiliatelinkhere.com/Then you can link to it in one of your posts/pages with:
<a href="http://yourwebsite.com/something-that-describes-the-link-here/">Buy the CD</a>We are the original and official Startup WordPress theme, we do not sell on ThemeForest. Any other theme being sold outside of startupwp.com with the name “Startup” is using our trademark without our permission and is not the real thing, and causes confusion just like this for our customers and their own.
We help people build original websites, not cookie-cutter duplicates as is the case with “beautiful” themes. Startup and StartupPro are plain on purpose, because they’re just white label tools to help you get started building and designing something more unique and professional, just for your site.
We hate to see people get duped or confused like this, whatever the case, it’s unfortunate. We’d be happy to provide you with a free copy of our pro theme and provide advice here in the support forums on the correct way to build a website, especially for startups.
For the record, the official free version (Startup) is found here (https://wordpress.org/themes/startup), and the official pro version (StartupPro) is found here (https://startupwp.com/demo/). Created by StartupWP LLC for $19 with free lifetime support and upgrades.
Again, apologies for the confusion. We’ve been working hard on getting other developers to stop using our name to avoid this kind of confusion any further in the future.
Thank you.
Good to hear.
Not seeing the issue in Chrome. What version of Chrome and on what kind of device, what operating system?
Link to your site please and we’ll see if we can investigate further.
A couple options:
1. For Pages, as in, non-blog posts you can change the template to have no sidebars.
2. You can use a plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/dynamic-widgets/ to decide where widgets will and won’t appear.
You’re welcome.
Any particular attachment or necessity for this specific plugin? We recommend using:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/addthis/
Which lets you control where the buttons appear.
Good to hear.
You’re welcome.
Indeed, it looks like an error/conflict with the JetPack plugin, definitely not theme related in any case.
But, we always do our best to help our customers for all things related to running an online business regardless of whether it’s directly related to our products.
In this case, the only suggestion we have is to make sure that everything is up-to-date, especially WordPress.
Other than that, (and we hate to give you the run-around), your best bet is to post this issue here (https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack) to get the actual developers eye’s on the issue.
Thank you.
You need to unzip it first and then install just startuppro.zip.
Very strange, you shouldn’t have to wait 24 hours, you should have instant access. Investigating this issue now.
No problem, refund issued.
Yes, as previously answered, Startup is indeed fully translation-ready and can be easily translated into any language:
https://startupwp.com/topic/translating-your-theme-to-your-language/
To confirm, will that not work for your needs, would you still like a refund?
Thank you.
At the very top of your theme settings, make sure to check the “Social Profile Icons” box.
Yes, it’s to be expected with all validation tools, most of the time, no one passes all errors and warnings on these tests, nor is it even important to. In fact, worrying about these tools too much can actually lead people to do things to their sites just to appease the tool for that 100% that’s not necessarily good for their visitors.
Google itself doesn’t pass W3C validation:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=google.com
These kinds of tools are useful for finding major problems, like broken code, but warnings should be taken lightly and often considered negligible. The more you use them the better you’ll get at spotting things that require action.
Also, if you don’t want to go digging around in the code, there are plenty of SEO plugins to try:
This is likely a conflict with previous custom CSS you’ve added. Can you share in a reply and CSS you’ve added for the #content or #sidebar areas or that may otherwise effect them?
Pages – Won’t contain author information because these pages are meant to be more official of the website as a whole and static, not to an individual.
Posts – Will contain author information as posts are considered writings, postings, articles, update etc from a specific individual.
This is standard for most WordPress themes and best practice. Also see http://support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/
With that said, would you like to customize pages so that they do contain author info?
