SEO Question

Just installed Simplicity with demo content and I was wondering how it handeled SEO for the home page with the use of widgets only. Sorry I am new to your products with a fully wigitised home.

To answer my own question. Theme SEO settings handle the homepage widgets and each additinal post/page as its own title and description.


Is this theme compatable with other seo plugins such as yoast?


Is there a setting to get the policy bar at the bottom?


Custom CSS box?

Hi,

You can use any SEO plugin - just please remember to disable in the Theme settings on the SEO tab usage of the GavernWP SEO settings, which overrides the title tag and meta tags.

If you need to get some bar on the bottom, you can use footer code option in the theme Layout settings. (and then please enable override.css file in the Advanced settings to put your own CSS code to style this bar).

Great thank you dziudek, are you willing to share the code you used to generate your footer banner with the text below:

"GavickPro website uses cookies. By continuing to use this website, you are giving consent to cookies being used. For more information visit our Cookie policy."

This is CSS:

Code: Select all

/* Cookie Law */
#gk-cookie-law { background: #E55E48; bottom: 0; color: #fff; font: 400 16px/52px 'Open Sans',sans-serif; height: 52px; left: 0;  margin: 0!important; position: fixed; text-align: center; width: 100%; z-index: 10001; }
#gk-cookie-law span { display: inline-block; max-width: 90%; }
#gk-cookie-law a { color: #fff; font-weight: 600; text-decoration: underline}
#gk-cookie-law a:hover { color: #222}
#gk-cookie-law a.gk-cookie-law-close { background: #c33c26; color: #fff; display: block; float: right; font-size: 28px; font-weight: bold; height: 52px; line-height: 52px; width: 52px;text-decoration: none}
#gk-cookie-law a.gk-cookie-law-close:active,
#gk-cookie-law a.gk-cookie-law-close:focus,
#gk-cookie-law a.gk-cookie-law-close:hover { background: #282828; }
@media (max-width: 1280px) { #gk-cookie-law { font-size: 13px!important; } }
@media (max-width: 1050px) { #gk-cookie-law { font-size: 12px!important; line-height: 26px!important; } }
@media (max-width: 620px) { #gk-cookie-law { font-size: 11px!important; line-height: 18px!important; } #gk-cookie-law span { max-width: 80%; } }
@media (max-width: 400px) { #gk-cookie-law { font-size: 10px!important; line-height: 13px!important; } }

and it is the HTML:

Code: Select all

<p id="gk-cookie-law"><span>GavickPro website uses cookies. By continuing to use this website, you are giving consent to cookies being used. For more information visit our <a href="http://www.gavick.com/cookies.html">Cookie policy.</a></span> <a href="#close" class="gk-cookie-law-close">&times;</a></p>

Thanks have a great weekend

Hi the code in wordpress works but I cannot get the bar to close using the cross on the right. Any idea?

You're right - I forgot about the script:

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript">
      function gkCreateCookie(name,value,days) {
         if (days) {
            var date = new Date();
            date.setTime(date.getTime()+(days*24*60*60*1000));
            var expires = "; expires="+date.toGMTString();
         }
         else var expires = "";
         document.cookie = name+"="+value+expires+"; path=/";
      }
      jQuery(document).ready(function() {
         if(jQuery(document).find(\'#gk-cookie-law\')) {
            jQuery(document).find(\'#gk-cookie-law a\').each(function(i, el) {
               el = jQuery(el);
               el.click(function(e) {
                  // for both links
                  gkCreateCookie(\'gk-demo-cookie-law\', \'1\', 365);
                  if(jQuery(e.target).attr(\'href\') == \'#close\') {   
                     e.preventDefault();
                     jQuery(document).find(\'#gk-cookie-law\').remove();
                  } else {
                     window.location.href = jQuery(e.target).attr(\'href\');
                  }
               });
            });
         }
   });</script>

Whats the best place to put this javescript?

You can put it in any existing JS file.

I have put it in the header and three js files, still no luck - the banner will not close

Did you refreshed the browser cache? Maybe browser still loads old files with the old code version?

yes I refreshed the browser cache but still no luck

Please provide an URL to your website - without it I won't be able to help.

The code was placed correctly but I've forgot to remove escaping for the apostrophes - my apologize, below there is the correct version of the code:

Code: Select all

<script type="text/javascript">
      function gkCreateCookie(name,value,days) {
         if (days) {
            var date = new Date();
            date.setTime(date.getTime()+(days*24*60*60*1000));
            var expires = "; expires="+date.toGMTString();
         }
         else var expires = "";
         document.cookie = name+"="+value+expires+"; path=/";
      }
      jQuery(document).ready(function() {
         if(jQuery(document).find('#gk-cookie-law')) {
            jQuery(document).find('#gk-cookie-law a').each(function(i, el) {
               el = jQuery(el);
               el.click(function(e) {
                  // for both links
                  gkCreateCookie('gk-demo-cookie-law', '1', 365);
                  if(jQuery(e.target).attr('href') == '#close') {   
                     e.preventDefault();
                     jQuery(document).find('#gk-cookie-law').remove();
                  } else {
                     window.location.href = jQuery(e.target).attr('href');
                  }
               });
            });
         }
   });</script>

Different problem now, the bar closes (thank you) but reappears every time you go to another page on the site or come back again.

Please try to change the HTML code to:

Code: Select all

<?php if(!isset($_COOKIE['gk-demo-cookie-law'])) : ?>
<p id="gk-cookie-law"><span>GavickPro website uses cookies. By continuing to use this website, you are giving consent to cookies being used. For more information visit our <a href="http://www.gavick.com/cookies.html">Cookie policy.</a></span> <a href="#close" class="gk-cookie-law-close">&times;</a></p>
<?php endif; ?>


No still keeps on comming back

So in this case please search for any other Cookies plugin.

Thanks for your help dziudek
