Hi, Google authorship works perfect with this theme. I use Google Author Link plug-in to make this happen. My photo and Google plus circles appear beside my posts every time my website or article gets searched.

Hi, I can’t remember when my website:kindtrepreneur.me was finally Google-indexed, but I know just like yours it was not indexed that quick. At first, I thought it was theme related but 2 months after I was happy since my target keywords brought my site to either first or second ranking. This theme is great. And I am also using Yoast SEO plug-in since it works perfectly with this theme. Today, I use fetch as Google (webmaster tools) after posting an article and after 3-5 seconds I can see the article gets indexed.

I hope this helps.

It is easy. You can create the welcome page or homepage using the SWIFT PAGE BUILDER. First go to PAGE. Click add new and name it- HOME. You see the SWIFT PAGE BUILDER? Click on Choose Elements, then click BLOG ( right under Accordion section.) You can see that little pen icon right there..that’s where you can edit things.Select MASONRY for the blog type if you want to copy that of the demo. For the number of items, you decide how many blogs appear on the homepage. In my case, I choose 9 sometimes 6. ( http://www.kindtrepreneur.me )

Note: Go to Appearance>Menu>Select HOME from the Pages, then click Add to Menu. That HOme thing will show up on the right. There is an arrow beside the word page. Click on it then you will see: Navigation Label. Again, name it Home. That’s what I did. Now name your main menu anything you want. I named mine just MAIN MENU. The same? Yes,no big deal. Click Save Menu after.

Note Again: Go to Appearance>Themes>Customize>NAvigation then find the name of your Menu under Main Menu..For the Top bar menu..leave it under Select if you have not created menus for it. The process though should be the same as building the main menu.. After you’re done. Click Save located at the top.

Going back to the Blog Page Block. Make sure you have the same number of blog pages set in the reading settings. To do this, go to Settings>Reading Settings> then tick on A static page, then put Home as the FRONT PAGE and leave SELECT as the Posts page. Also make sure you tick SUMMARY-under FOR EACH Article In A Feed, show. After you are done with READING SETTINGS SECTION click on save.

Now going back to SWIFT PAGE BUILDER, under BLOG CATEGORY I choose ALL. ( you can experiment on this later on.) In the CONTENT OUTPUT, select Excerpt, then YES for the pagination. Click Save.

We are not done yet. GO ahead and scroll down to Page Options under page meta. Put a check on SHOW POST TICKER and SHOW POST SLIDER. This is important!!! Also,you see that drop down menu? Select the category you want to show on the slider. ( If I have failed to tell you about the other settings it means I left them as they are.)

Now go straight to POST SLIDER COUNT. If you have lots of post under the category you have chosen, then you can select all of them or just some. If you are done with this, go directly to SIDEBAR OPTIONS then select NO SIDEBARS.

I am not using the Revolution Slider for the Homepage. I am using the one in the demo. I don’t know what it’s called though, but it looks great! Make sure you have set the image you like to show on the home slider. You can do this by going to each blog post. Scroll your way down. Then find Post Slider Entry Options..then upload the image you like. Set the caption left or right. That’s it.

Hoping this is the one you are looking for.

For the Editors Picks…Go to Swift Page Builder then find BLOG Posts Carousel. Click on the pencil icon. For the number of blog post you want to show, put the number under number of items. For the category, choose via drop down menu in POST CATEGORY. SET THE FOLLOWING: SHOW TITLE TEXT-YES,SHOW ITEM EXCERPT-NO,SHOW ITEM DETAILS-YES AND SHOW BOTTOM SHADOW-YES. LEAVE THE REST AS DEFAULT.Drag the BLOG POST CAROUSEL above the BLOG block. Check your settings from time to time if they look okay. Don’t forget to click UPDATE especially whenever you make changes.

I hope this helps.

Hello Cheriserollins,

This is what I did with my homepage. Whether you use a homepage with a slider or just plain blog homepage, I think things work pretty the same. Try this out and apply the ones that works on your end:

ou can create the welcome page or homepage using the SWIFT PAGE BUILDER. First go to PAGE. Click add new and name it- HOME. You see the SWIFT PAGE BUILDER? Click on Choose Elements, then click BLOG ( right under Accordion section.)

Everytime you make changes, just make sure you clear your browser’s cache..That is what I do everytime I make changes with this theme..:-)

I have just posted a new article today and I did uncheck the author bio since I am using fancy author and things are working OKAY. Yo just have to make sure the box is unchecked.

Just like you I used to have the same issue. Then I was told to add this to the Custom CSS box within the supreme theme options:

.nav-previous span, .nav-next span {
max-width: 95%;
text-overflow: ellipsis;
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: hidden;
display: inline-block;
}

I hope this is the one you are looking for.

I have no major issues with this theme, especially with DISQUS. It should be working fine.
