I updated my plugins and the problem went away. My hunch is that it was the plugin Tiled Galleries Carousel Without Jetpack, which was among those updated.

Apparently unless I use “Tiled Mosaic,” the gallery makes my entire post disappear. (Didn’t try the circle thumbs).

Next I’m going to see if there’s a theme or plugin related.

So a gallery is what caused the page to break.

However, this scrapbook I’m adding is full of galleries, there’s even already another gallery on this page. So being a gallery isn’t enough to break it. Going to see if changing it from thumbnails to something else will help.

Fun twist: I tried to paste the gallery in here, and I got the message from WordPress “You need to submit content in order to post!”

Fair enough, thanks for the reply.

First I’m going to try and recreate the page on a fresh new page, item by item, to see what is breaking it. I’ll leave this ticket open until I figure it out, and report back whatever I do.

This one has disappeared as well https://futureisfiction.com/blog/burning-man-playlist/burning-man-playlist-5-i-got-my-eye-on-you/

This is so helpful, thank you!

OK, I think what happened is the shortcodes were a feature of the theme originally, but got moved to the plugin. I say this because they were working on my site, but stopped working for a while, and after I installed the plugin again they started working again.

So I’d advise someone who happens upon this to check the regular documentation for the theme, hopefully the shortcodes are still there.

I searched their site as well, and no mention of this plugin or shortcodes. What’s the deal? Why take the time to code a persistent nag that bugs me to install the plugin, but not take the time to write down the shortcodes anywhere?

Yeah…nope. That page has no information whatsoever. If you don’t tell us what the shortcodes are, this plugin is worthless.

Right, so wouldn’t that exclude the source itself, and not simply the word “source”?

I saw that, but thought it was for excluding actual content from the feed, rather than the way that content is displayed. I guess I don’t understand the syntax. What do the numbers mean? I thought that the numbers meant to exclude specific items from the feed, like in the example above it would exclude the 26th and 14th post.

If I wanted to exclude the label of source, would it be:

[wp-rss-aggregator exclude=”source”]

OK, I just took out the code for the Yoast plugin and everything is fine now. I’ll leave this so others can see it.

Thanks! If you get it to work, you should definitely mention it on your plugin features page, because so far none of the Tumblr plugins can do this.

Thanks Esmi,

Right now all the sub-pages are showing up as 404s, so there’s not much to show. I’ll post a link to a subpage as soon as I resolve that problem (in talks with web host).

Thinking all the site problems could be due to installing WP has https instead of http…the installation walkthrough suggested I use https so I went for it. Is that problematic for WordPress in general?
