Hi Mohammed – That also was not the issue as I reverted back to the previous version of the theme to check if it was causing issues.

The original post was based on when the theme was at version 1.65

Sorry – Comments set to close after 14 days was selected.
All works now.

Hi Rui,

That is not quite accurate – the comments are “Awaiting spam check” which is different to waiting approval. Also the comment form and the comments were all awaiting spam check before they disappeared from the front-end.

However this is not the issue. The comments and the form do not appear on the page:

Hi Mohammad,

This does not help as it solves one problem but causes another.

It has fixed the pagination but has broken the offset.

On a previous thread (http://support.swiftideas.net/forums/topic/changing-the-standard-blog-layout/) I managed to enable offset posts which is key to what I’m trying to achieve with this page.

Sadly still got the same issue.

The removal of the htaccess did nothing to change it.

[irishmark]

There is only one htaccess file with the standard code for permalink changes:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

I deleted this rule and reset permalinks back to default but am still getting the same issue.

I’ve now put the permalinks back to “postname” as I want them and the htaccess file has been updated as expected.

[irishmark]

Thanks dude – really appreciated.

Hey Kyle, Flexform is the theme I’m using. It would be ludicrous to change themes just for one function.

I’m not asking you to show me how to do it completely – just to point me in the right direction which should be straight forward if you’ve done this in another theme?

[irishmark]

Can you point me in the direction of how to offset the posts?

Am using Blog Post Carousel to display 4 posts across the top horizontally I then want to continue with a list of posts using the regular blog function with my tweaks but offset so it’s not repeating the same top 4 posts.

[irishmark]

Worked like a charm although limits potential choices for layout later on but client wont be able to do that themselves even if it were through the composer interface.

Hey Kyle,

Is it not as simple as changing this part of lines 474, 481, 521 of the sf-post-formats.php file from

get_avatar(get_the_author_meta(‘ID’, $post_author_id), ‘164’)

to

get_the_post_thumbnail($page->ID, ‘thumbnail’)

>

Hey Kyle,

I can do lots of this myself but there are certain parts which I need help for so maybe I can break it down in to specific items that will help me do the rest of the modifications I need.

What part if the code do I need to modify to use the Featured image thumbnail in place of the author avatar for standard posts.

[irishmark]

Wow – That’s incredibly disappointing.

I wouldn’t class this as a big customization bearing in mind that it should just be a couple of tweaks to the single.php page.

If it is more than that, then at the very least you could point me in the general direction of what needs to be changed rather than a blanket “nope – can’t help” which is no help at all.

[irishmark]

Thanks for this Ed – It only took me 4 months to get there!

COuld it possibly be related to the fact that I’m using a child theme?

Currently child theme only consists of a different header.php & style.css file
