Thanks. I may try digging around in the theme to see if there is a call to the page.
I should have mentioned that Search Console doesn’t help here, it says:
Referring page none detected.

In reply to: Admin page gets “Indexed, though blocked by robots.txt”Sure, but why does Google think it is a problem? There must be millions if not tens of millions of wp-dmin/index.php links in the database. You might think it would be an exception if it was OK.
Thanks Tobias
Like I said, CSS is easy, until you have to deal with responsive screens

In reply to: [Redirection] Please could you add this to the FAQI apologise in advance if this sounds thick, but does ‘at the start’ mean directly after https:// or can it also mean after https://www.domainname.com/

In reply to: [Breadcrumb NavXT] Missing field “item” Error@jameseze – I haven’t either. Until this is resolved I’d disabled the NavXT plugin and reverted to Yoast. I’m not sure how serious the errors are, but this approach does get rid of them.

In reply to: [Breadcrumb NavXT] Missing field “item” Error@jameseze The alternative is an option to switch off breadcrumbs on the home page and maybe the first page of archives.

In reply to: [Breadcrumb NavXT] Missing field “item” ErrorThanks.
Realistically breadcrumbs are not needed on the home page anyway.
This suggests the smartest solution would be to write code so that the breadcrumbs don’t show up on the home page. Is there anything wrong with this idea that I’ve missed?

In reply to: [Breadcrumb NavXT] Missing field “item” ErrorI have the same problem with my home page:
And a few other archive pages at the moment, but I guess there will be more as the crawler finds them.
Can you explain what you mean by:
“wrap calling code, including the HTML tag referencing schema.org BreadcrumbList”.
Hi
Thanks for responding.
The answers to questions 1, 2 and 3 are all yes.
It took some time to bring my staging site up to date. Sorry about the delay.
If I use a standard theme, I tried TwentyTwenty and TwentySixteen, the page in question is not generated. It seems to be a function of the theme.
If I return to my site’s theme and switch all plug-ins off except Yoast the offending code is still there.
So my conclusion is the theme does not play well with Yoast.
Would you agree? If so, I’ll contact the theme designer.

In reply to: [Redirection] What does it mean when /false appears in 404 log?Well yes, but why would they do that? I’ve tried looking this up and can’t find any reference. Is is a security threat?

In reply to: Temporarily suspend RSS feedAh, good question. I think not.
Is there any way to know what the guid was when the post has been deleted for some time? Is there a trail in the database?
And if there is, how can I manipulate the guid on a replacement post?

In reply to: [Twenty Nineteen] Styling the blockquote“Your question is how to change the inline styling? This is our answer:
1) Don’t change the inline styling;
2) Figure out where the inline styling is being added and how;
3) Remove the inline styling;
4) Use the appropriate method of adding CSS via the “Additional CSS” part of the dashboard or through a Child Theme style.css file.However you’re right we’re going in circles because you’ve yet to tackle step 2.”
Are saying that this isn’t standard. That other people don’t see the blockquote inline CSS?
It’s not there if I change the theme. So it could be part of the theme.
The theme-plug-in conflict idea is also plausible. I’ll work through that later.
Could it also be to do with how the Gutenberg quote block is configured?
Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Twenty Nineteen] Styling the blockquoteI’m using the straight Gutenberg blockquote option. Nothing else. It’s marked as quote in the list of Getenberg blocks.
That code is either coming from the theme or it’s hardcoded into WordPress.
So I either need to identify if the hardcoded inline CSS is in the functions or in WordPress or perhaps it comes from somewhere else in the theme files.
I feel that my question is going around in circles here.
