I think I now know what I need to do but I don’t know how to do it. I think the appropriate solution is to create a lightweight version of the wp-block-embed class that is considerably simplified and doesn’t have as much overhead. Has anyone successfully done this?

Thanks! Great answer! I’ll look into the options with Amp

One more thing…if you want the divider or separator to appear in lists of posts in a category, you need to insert code into that loop inside Archive.PHP here:

get_template_part( ‘template-parts/content’, get_post_format() );

echo ‘xxxx’;

// End the loop.
endwhile;

If you want to look at how I’ve done it, you can look at my site at:

OK, I have answered my own question. The place to enter this code is in Index.PHP and it goes in here:

get_template_part( ‘template-parts/content’, get_post_format() );

echo ‘xxxx’;

// End the loop.
endwhile;

You can insert whatever you want.

Let me be more specific about my question – I have found some code I would like to add to the twentysixteen template but I’m not sure where to add it. Here is the code:

<?php
if (($wp_query->current_post + 1) < ($wp_query->post_count)) {
echo ‘<div class=”post-item-divider”>Post Divider</div>’;
}
?>

The above code should go inside the loop that displays a series of posts at the end of the loop. Where would I add this code in the twentysixteen template?

Thanks for your response – that makes sense and explains why I do not get any error when I manually access the same link with a web browser.

So, it sounds like the site this link is pointing to is erroneously returning an HTTP 503 error when the broken links plugin tries to access it.

I was able to resolve my problem after completely rebuilding my site (Fortunately, I had a good backup). Here are the steps I went through:

1. Completely wiped out the original installation and removed all files from the web site
2. Did a clean installation of WordPress 4.7
3. Installed the UpdraftPlus plugin that I use for backups
4. Used UpdraftPlus to restore the site from the most recent backup
5. Upgraded to WordPress 4.7.1 again

I don’t know what went wrong the first time I did the upgrade to 4.7.1 because it worked the second time. I have turned off automatic upgrades so that I won’t get caught by surprise again like this – my site was completely dead for almost two days before I discovered that it was down.

I use Interserver for hosting and I’m generally happy with them. I run my WordPress site on an IIS platform. Interserver has told me that I should be on Linux but I have another site that requires IIS and SQL Server.

Thanks, I got it resolved…the HTTP-500 error eventually went away and everything is back to normal

You can disregard this post. The HTTP-500 error went away after several attempts

I did a manual update to WordPress 4.5.2 as specified in the document I referenced; and apparently the update was successful; however I still have a problem. When I open the WP-Admin panel and attempt to access “Plugins”, I get a spinner for quite a while and then it declares an HTTP-500 error.

I am simply using the export and import utility to export and import WordPress content. I’m going to have to find a better alternative because I realize now that isn’t a complete backup. Yes, if it happens again, I will certainly ask for help sooner.

I have made some progress on this. I did a complete reinstall of WordPress (but didn’t replace the database). I then did a restore from backup from running WP-Admin and that worked. The install and the restore ran fine but I’ve lost all my plugins. I’m learning a lot about what a backup and restore does. I thought it might backup my plugins but it didn’t. I’m going to have to wait for my web hosting company to do a file restore. That’s a lot easier than manually reinstalling all of my plugins.

Thanks for your help!

I’ve checked that with my Web Hosting company and they have told me that its a problem in the WordPress installation.

Yes, when I view the files through a website control panel, I can see the folders and the files and I deleted all of the plugins and all of the themes to see if that would make a difference and it didn’t. I’m still unable to start WordPress to be able to run WP-Admin to do a restore. I’m trying to have my website hosting company do a complete file restore but that is taking a while.
