 * Hi, Alexander. You’re a genius. After reading your note, it made me go back and
   re-examine what I might have done wrong in implementing your code. Surely enough,
   I missed putting that period in front of the word “main-inner.” When I did that,
   it was magically fixed! Again, thanks a million for the help.
 * If you ever want to advertise or something on my site, I’ll give you a free plug.
   We get over 200,000 pageviews a month. So, maybe I can help you out in return
   since the theme and support was free. Just a thought. Thanks again….Andre

 * Hi, Alexander. Thanks for your quick response. I tried your suggestion, but unfortunately,
   it didn’t work. Do you have any other suggestions?
 * Just another thing to note. I’m running the older version 1.2.1 typcore theme
   with the 5.7.8 WordPress version and php version 7.1.33. Do you think upgrading
   to the latest theme version would help? I try not to upgrade very often because
   I’m afraid something might go wrong. Also, I’m not familiar with working with
   child themes. So, I would have to re-add everything when upgrading the theme.
 * Anyways, any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again….Andre

 * Hi Alexander,
 * Thanks for the response. I actually had tried that, but it didn’t work. It might
   work with a child theme as you suggest, but I don’t have much experience working
   with those.
 * Anyways, it’s ok though. I figured out that the problem is that I always wrote
   custom excerpts, and your theme only carries out the number of words if the custom
   except is left blank. When it ‘s left blank, it works fine. I was able to find
   an excerpt plugin that will ignore my previous custom excerpts and just put the
   number of words that I specify.
 * But ultimately, I just decided to disable the excerpts in your theme, and just
   have it display the headlines on the archive pages, and that’s been working great.
   I still ranks the same in Google. So, everything’s good.
 * Again, I applaud you for your great Typecore theme. I love it, especially on 
   the mobile phones. It loads up fast and everything. It truly is a premium theme
   for free. I actually would have paid for this theme if I had to. I also like 
   how I can just change the colors to bright with a click of a button. It’s running
   on my main site ontheflix.com . You can check it out if you want.
 * Also, I don’t know if you can do this, but in the future, can you make it to 
   where the excerpt will show the amount of words regardless of custom excerpts
   like the plugin does? I’m just curious because I like to avoid using extra plugins
   if I can. Thanks again….Andre
 * Oh, I almost forgot. I meant to ask you about the sidebars. I was curious is 
   there a way to switch the main sidebar to show up on the right and have the secondary
   sidebar show up on the left on all pages and posts? Thanks

 * Hi Alexander, I figured out what was wrong. Is there any way I can get your theme
   to pull from the full content instead of the excerpt?
 * Whenever themes pull from the full content, it doesn’t ignore my <!–more–> tag
   and only displays the content before the <!–more–> tag on the archive pages. 
   Thanks and sorry for all the confusion…..Andre Braddox

 * Hi, Alexander. I tried to post some code of what my old theme files looked like,
   but WordPress held it for moderation for some reason. Hopefully, they will approve
   it soon.

 * Hi, sorry , no. The theme that’s on my newzhot site is using your Typecore theme,
   and I just learned that the content.php is what pulls the excerpt with your theme.
   My old them didn’t have a content.php file.
 * I remember going into the archives.php file, and I believe the index.php file
   in my old theme and being able to stop it from pulling the feature image, and
   it just naturally only included the text that came before my <!–more–> from within
   the wp post editor despite how many words I put in the excerpt box.
 * It would do that for the home page, the archive pages for each category. However,
   it was an older theme that was made in 2012 or 2013, and it wasn’t mobile friendly.
 * I guess the themes are coded differently these days because your theme isn’t 
   the only one that pulls my entire excerpt and ignores my <!–more-> from inside
   the wp post editor.
 * I kind of have to put all my entire post in the excerpt, or at least most of 
   it because it’s a news source for IMDB, and I also do the Facebook instant articles
   which I believe pulls from the excerpt in the rss feed. I could be wrong about
   that though. I’m not entirely sure because I’ve always just included my entire
   articles in the excerpt box.
 * Anyways, if you have any ideas how it could be set up for me to still put my 
   entire article in the excerpt box and have it just pull part of it, it would 
   be greatly appreciated.
 * I was able to get the Jetblog plugin with elementor pro to do it, but it will
   only pull the same list for all the archive pages. Not the actual category posts
   for the archives. For instance, I could only use it on a “custom” homepage and
   no where else. It will only pull the latest posts. Not the actual category posts.
 * Again, thanks for any help you could provide. I might have to find someone local
   to dig into the code and see what they can do, or just fall back to my old theme.
