In reply to: [AMP] cdn.ampproject.org questionHi Miland,
I don’t use Amp for WP anymore.
I looked at all the compatible themes. I couldn’t find one that matched my present page layout. Some of the older ones I tried a few years ago when the theme I was using, Montezuma, was no longer supported… and they didn’t work.
I’m so grateful to you for telling me how the update thing works for themes. I’m SO grateful. Thank you so much.
I hope you had a lovely Christmas and that you have a spectacular New Year.

In reply to: [AMP] cdn.ampproject.org questionHi again Miland,
I looked into the link you offered. I don’t feel as if my problem deserves that kind of attention… It was very kind of you to offer the link.
Here’s my website’s most visited page
See, I can’t even tell if the added link is the way it’s supposed to be, so I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t be able to make the necessary changes if needed for verification.
With Amp for WordPress they always made the changed for me, probably for everyone.
The utility (? not sure that’s the right word? we used in the study group was super easy… I mean Super. We only had a choice of 3 different “themes”… I can’t remember if we had to enter our sites page by page… I think we entered our site’s name and then it created an amp version. Then, as I remember it, the only way to get it to refresh was to add a post… my site would be all pages, but for those posts.
Yesterday I was going to change my theme to one of the compatible ones, on one of my smaller sites, but I don’t really understand if all the changes I made will convert since I didn’t do a child theme, and I get the impression you’re supposed to…
What do you think?
🙂

In reply to: [AMP] cdn.ampproject.org questionHi Muhammed,
Standard sounds as if it is for developers and others with extensive coding experience.
I’m not using a compatible theme. I checked, first thing.
My cdn.ampproject.org numbers are back up today, not high… but somewhat as high as Pinterest in times past.
still mystified!

In reply to: [AMP] cdn.ampproject.org questionHi Miland,
Yes, they were vignette.
It took me ages to discover that. And I did disable them.
Actually, I didn’t use AdSense for years at the beginning of my site, nearly two decades ago, because their ads were mostly for the least effective kind of B12, but also the least costly to make and therefore the most profitable. Anyway, my priority is getting B12 info to people, not making money.
On the other hand, my AdSense earnings (when I have page views) greatly enhance my life.
Merry Christmas!!! I hope you are having a lovely day!!!!

In reply to: [AMP] cdn.ampproject.org questionHi Muhammed,
Thank you. That was my first thought. But the whole time I used the Amp for WordPress plugin, I didn’t get cnd.ampproject.org referrals. I think that’s because in fact the plugin didn’t make my mobile pages faster than my desktop. The developers have an extension you can buy, and I did, to use their caching system, and that made my site fast. But, I think it also prohibited my site from getting to use the cdn.ampproject.org caching. I didn’t ever get the yellow lightening bolt.
Also, I stopped using their amp plugin over a month ago, around 11/10, at which time I was getting maybe one cdn.ampproject.org referral a day, as opposed to over a hundred a day for several days few days ago, before they dwindled back.
So, I don’t think it can be that.
Also, the mobile pages from my site that I see on my smart phone are not the same layout as my amp pages from Amp for WordPress.
I remain mystified, and baffled.
What else do you think it could be?
And, if I begin employing this plugin, will I put the kibosh on the good fortune referrals from cdn.ampproject.org?????
and
HAPPY WINTER SOLSTICE!!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!Karen Kline
Thank you, Green.
I no longer believe this plugin actually provides the necessary elements to achieve the lightening icon. I bought their cache thing, which provides fast loading, but I forgot that wouldn’t get me good Google Search ranking. Before AMP I got hundreds of visitors from Google search. Since this plugin, maybe 50… on a really good day.
Before I bought their cache extension my mobile page speed was really slow, slower than my desktop pages.
I’m depressed about it today… I no longer get monthly income from Google Adsense… that’s rather devastating.
I’m glad I found your topic. Thank you for the information.
Karen
Joining in: I think a similar problem must be why I never got the lightening icon, and never enjoyed an increase of Google CDN traffic.

Thanks.Hi, I appreciate your help.
I took a screenshot of my desktop page and sent it to the tech at InMotion Hosting who was helping me. The image showed, when I looked closely, that my URL had /#google_vignette/ at the end. I googled that and found that since Nov. 3 google has been serving these full page ads. 🙁
Next, the tech discovered that by disabling my AMPforWordpress plugin the single ad on each of my mobile pages, with no way to get to my content, disappeared…
So… While I now have screen shots of the mobile pages, https://off-grid-insights.com/weird-ads/ I think it’s pretty clear this isn’t a security issue.
I appreciate your help. Very much!!!
Karen Kline
thank you. I appreciate it.
As an aside, my pages have never shown with the lightening icon… though I haven’t checked recently

In reply to: no text view in 5.4.1There’s no plugin called Classic Editor.
I have Guttenberg disabled, so I would have thought that gave me the original kind of WP editing… Classic?
