That’s the plugin I was talking about ??

Thanks caimin_nwl (and angelo) for the help!

Yes, that would be the case on old ones (that has already been created). But I’m thinking about new ones that will in the future go past due date, you know? Because this website is pretty much new.

Right, you are probably right about that.

I have google XML sitemap plugin, would you say that is sufficient? And will it update the sitemap automatically? how often, if you know?

Thanks a bunch!

I believe that would create the same issue that I’m trying to solve, being that the event will first be “visible”/indexable for Google, and then all of a sudden it will dissappear.

I have been thinking.. perhaps the best is to simply make the single events pages no-index no-follow?

Why? Because the business owner (I’m a markneting consultant) of the website will be adding events that are exactly the same as each other (only different dates) pretty frequently.

In other words, there will be duplicate content (the description of the events will be the same as he copy and pastes).

This will hurt my SEO, right? Unless I do the no-index of course.

How can I achieve this? Without having to manually choose to no-index each time a event is created.

Thanks guys!

Hi caimin_nwl,

I’ll try to explain again ??

Lets say that I add 3 different events. One was two days ago, the second one in 2 days and the 3rd one in a week.

Which one will be shown at the top? The one that is in a week.

So it will look like this:
1. Event #3 that is in a week
2. Event #2 that is in 2 days
3. Event #1 that was two days ago)

So instead of event #2 showing at the top, that actually is the most current one, the one being in a week will show above.

You can see how this will cause problems if you have a lot of events added.

Hope that makes it clear!

Thanks angelo! That solved what I was asking for.

However, that created another issue I hadn’t thought of..

And that is that either the oldest events will show up at the top, OR the newest – in both cases there will be events showing before/above the most current ones.

That is no good for the visitor user experience as you can imagine.

Can that be solved? Thanks.

Awesome, that did the trick!

Thanks a bunch guys.

Caimin_nwl,

Thanks, that solved part of my problem. Now it displays “00:00” (only the starting time) instead of “00:00 – 00:00” when I leave the time fields empty.

Any thoughts on how to get rid of this last part?

Thanks

Hi angelo,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes it is! But would also be great if it was solved on category listing pages.

I know what the trouble was now.

For others reference, if helpful:
It was that my host has a limit on the memory, so I had to 1. upgrade with the host, or 2. get rid of plugins etc. that could be causing it because of big file size.

Oh OK, I put this code in the bottom of the wp-config.php:

/* Increasing memory allocated to PHP */
define( ‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ’64M’ );

Is that correct? If so, it doesn’t work. Should I then contact my host as suggested by wordpress?

Thanks again,
D

Hi,

Where should I put this code that they suggest I use to increase the limit?

Thanks for the reply,

@james kirk

Yeah, definitely! hehe

This is what I did:
1. I added an empty file called header.php
2. I added the code “<title><?php wp_title(”); ?></title>” into the file (this is wrong I know that now, but I misunderstood you first)
3. I refreshed my website and it was messed up (obviously)
4. Deleted the file and added a new empty header.php file
5. Went to the header.php file in the parent theme and copied the code
6. Pasted the code into the new header.php in the child theme, and them refreshed the website.
7. To my amazement it was still messed up.

Need more information, let me know!

Best regards,
Daniel

Ok, I solved the “permanent mess-up” for now. Just activated the parent theme.

But somehow the child theme is messed up (even though I deleted the header.php file in it).

Sorry for all the posts all at once. Just got scared there for a moment lol.

Best,
D

I also noticed now, that the part about messing up my website when adding the header.php stuff in the child theme – was permanent. It is stilled messed up.

Appreciate a fast reply on how to solve this (like some sort of “backing up” the time before I did the change.

The website is for a client (and is live), very stupid of me to not be doing this on a backup..

Thanks again,
D
