I’m not sure if you’re trying to be helpful or sarcastic, but my review is about Yoast SEO and Yoast SEO only, not other SEO plugins. But yes, I do recommend anyone using Yoast move on to another SEO at this point.
On another forum someone mentioned the Data Transporter and there was still a lot of work to be done once it was used, so I’m not prepared to say that people won’t have to do all that work again. To my knowledge, they will.

In reply to: [Parabola] How to configure post count on presentation page?I went out to the Dashboard then Appearance then Parabola Settings.
For the four “sticky” posts just under the slider, I went to Presentation Page and chose 4 in the drop-down menu by PRESENTATION PAGE COLUMNS. You can then configure what is in each of those columns by clicking on Column 1, Column 2, etc.
For all the posts below that, I went to Post Excerpt Settings. At both HOME PAGE and ARCHIVE AND CATEGORY PAGES I chose Excerpt in the drop-down menu, then under MAGAZINE LAYOUT chose Enable.
I hope that’s what you were looking for!

In reply to: [Amazon Product in a Post Plugin] Product Does not DisplayI don’t know if this will help, but here are two things I just came across when I had the same problem:
1. The ASIN on Amazon Associates Page isn’t the ASIN you need. Maybe this was just a fluke, but grabbing the ASIN from the Associates Page didn’t work, only after I went out to the regular product page and cut & pasted that ASIN did everything show up.
2. I also noticed that I used the wrong Access Key at first. When you go out to the IAM Management Console, you see your Access Key already there. I made the mistake of C&Ping that Key, then requesting a new Key and putting in the Secret Key from that rootkey.csv file without updating the Access Key. Does that make sense? Just make sure both Keys you used are the ones that were sent in the rootkey.csv file.
Hope these help.

In reply to: [Parabola] How to create a Page with archives?I’m just trying to make an archive page with an archive template using the instructions here:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_an_Archive_Index
It mentions category.php for creating a large archive, but otherwise I’m not entirely sure what you’re suggesting.
I guess I just need to know: Can someone who knows something about the Parabola theme tell me if an “easy” archive can be created using the instructions above? And if so, how?
Or can someone translate what “‘Archives’ are in fact category (pages). And all you need is to add them to the menu” means?
It doesn’t make much sense that I would have to code some special page for the archives when there are apparently templates available.

In reply to: Need help diagnosing excessive memory usage on my blogWanted to add the kind of error messages I get out on my webhost’s cpanel:
CPU resources were limited for your site
You have reached entry processes (number of simultaneously running php and cgi scripts, as well as cron jobs and shell sessions) limit 3 times

They can’t tell me what scripts have caused this, though.

In reply to: getting rid of side borders on TwentyTwelveAh, I see what you’re saying, I didn’t parse your sentence correctly and thought you meant I should delete the line.
Thanks to you and esmi both for helping with the code, it worked!

In reply to: getting rid of side borders on TwentyTwelveI can’t find that in my style.css. What line do you see it on?
The closest thing I can find to that is the code I already posted above, which I already tried to remove, but it didn’t affect the border.

In reply to: getting rid of side borders on TwentyTwelveOkay. When I try Inspect Element, nothing comes up when I try to click that border.
When inspecting the style of the page, the border, padding, box values etc. all show 0 values. The only thing I can see that MIGHT be it is
border-image-width: 1 1 1 1
But I can’t find border-image-width in my child theme style.css.
I went through and checked all the padding values and removed them from my child theme style.css in trial and error, but no luck. It seems like this code should be what I need to change:
/* Minimum width of 960 pixels. */ @media screen and (min-width: 960px) { body { background-color: #e6e6e6; } body .site { padding: 0 40px; padding: 0 3.5rem; margin-top: 48px; margin-top: 0.3rem; margin-bottom: 48px; margin-bottom: 3.428571429rem; box-shadow: 0 2px 6px rgba(100, 100, 100, 0.3); }but changing it does nothing, and removing it just moves the entire blog down approx 50 pixels.
Nothing is getting rid of that border/box/whatever it is.

In reply to: getting rid of side borders on TwentyTwelveI have no idea how to use Firebug. What do I even DO with it to figure this out?

In reply to: [Rapid Twitter Widget] Widget stopped workingThose having trouble with “API settings invalid,” try again. I tried a second time after 10 minutes and it worked when it didn’t the first time. No idea why it won’t work sometimes but at least re-trying did the trick.
Great, thanks! I appreciate you getting back to me so quickly.
I had to do that as well. Thanks for bringing it up mrwweb, I never thought of mentioning it.

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] Twenty Twelve Featured Image Showing up twiceThanks esmi, and good luck Mark, I hope you find a solution!
If anyone has any ideas or info for the Featured Image issue I have, I’d love to hear them!

In reply to: [Twenty Twelve] Twenty Twelve Featured Image Showing up twiceQuick question: When commenting out
the_post_thumnbnail()
does that mean all the Featured Image features are disabled? Or only the image appearing at the top of the post in TwentyTwelve?
I had the same issue the OP had, and I like Featured Image and ONLY want to prevent the image from appearing at the top of the post. Everything else Featured Image does is fine. Because I don’t understand code that well, I don’t specifically know what commenting that bit of code does, and wanted to ask. Thanks!
