It looks like it does not store exclusions into DB, I put IP address into exclusions but statistics_exclusions table is still empty.

In the meantime I disabled pagination and replaced it with the link to page with all news posts, so I cannot provide url with pagination anymore. Until someone else has the problem you do not need to bother with this issue anymore. Thanks.

Yes, this I found when I experimented with the news more, but this is just pagination, news are showed OK on the main page and if I switch off pagination, it is fully OK. Post Grid short code OUTPUTS news. Unfortunately, short code from Simple News does not output anything.

As far as I understand what parameters there are for [news] short code yet, I suppose there is no such thing as pagination, just offset, so I would have to script own pagination anyway. So probably short codes in Simple News not worth the effort yet, same as not worth the effort for you to fix it if no one else has similar issues with short codes. As it is new feature, you have at least a feedback that this still might need some tuning.

I am using it in code module of Divi Extra theme. But even if I try it in Gutenberg, I still get no output. There is no need to try another theme as I am using various short codes on the pages and all work OK, including Post Sliders & Post Grids short code [psc_print_post_grid] that shows news correctly.

Your short code [news] is definitely recognized but it just does not function inside.

Hi, how did you fix it eventually?

Hi Morten,

I tested it and again, I got crippled category listings, same as before and same as I described already with introduction of version 2.1.

Is there any specific reason you need to hack category listing? Because if I just simply remove this filter, everything works perfectly OK, even the list of all news in the new format (resembling news columns).

No. Only instead of list of articles with excerpt I get one article without heading and with broken formatting.

After removal of the part of the code, all is OK, proper listing of news, articles, etc. No PHP error messages.

And as last time, if I remove following part of code, everything works just OK.

// Show news items in archive

add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'query_post_type');
function query_post_type($query) {
  if( is_category() ) {
    $post_type = get_query_var('post_type');
    if($post_type)
        $post_type = $post_type;
    else
        $post_type = array('nav_menu_item', 'post', 'news');
    $query->set('post_type',$post_type);
    return $query;
    }
}

I am using latest Extra theme (which is sibling of Divi, specially for blogs).

Hi, after updating to version 2.4 the same problem occurred again. I had to revert back to v2.2.

Also, there is one strange thing (I realized it only now, but is even with v 2.2) that if I click on most current news item (and the issue is only for this one) and it opens, I have comment section below it (section id=”comment-wrap”) although I do not use WP comments. I use wpDiscuz instead and only for regular posts. Surely, I can hide this section via css, but maybe it is something that should be fixed too.

Thanks, this works.

Thanks for reply. Unfortunately, this was not enough. I had to manually delete all files and subfolders in cache folder as obviously the structure of folders changed and it was probably the culprit. Now it looks OK.

I have just done what you suggested but cache is still not clearing. I still have old timestamps in the bottom of page html. I checked time attributes of wpFastestCache.php in the zip file and it is 20.02.2020 21:28, i.e. much later than your post about downloading. Could the linked zip file be unintentionally replaced or is there still issue with clearing cache? With 0.9.0.2 everything works OK. You can check https://apartmentsprague4.cz/cenik/
