    Hi Jess,

    Thank you for reply.

    The reason why I need to change 'Genesis Featured Posts' Title from H4 to H2 is that the heading structure is wrong.

    Correct SEO structure should follow:

    H1
    ....... H2
    .............H3
    ....... H2
    ....... H2
    .............H3
    ................ H4

    At present, when you use Genesis Featured Posts and add a title such as 'you may like these' or 'related' the structure is as follows:
    Genesis Featured Post Title: 'You may like these' - H4
    Post Title: H2

    Logical heading structure along with Google guideline considers this as poor structure.

    Thank you

    Hi Jess,

    Thank you for your reply.
    Not sure why i do not get an auto response to any off my posts and feedback.

    Anyway, I played around with your technique. In theory, whilst you are able to control the size of the images across different viewports, you end up losing control of the image aspect ratio.

    If there is another way to control the <div style="left: 0px; top: 0px; overflow: hidden; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; height: 775px; width: 1903px; z-index: -999999; position: fixed;" class="backstretch"><img src= blah blah blah this would be great.

    Thank you

    Hi Christoph,

    My site is on a localhost.

    Feel free to give this a test run to see my point.

    Install WP4.41 or higher, Genesis Framework, Genesis Sample Theme.
    On the Hello World Post create a couple of tags and update.
    Drill to Appearance | Widget | Primary Sidebar and add a Tag Cloud Widget. Give the Tag Cloud a title 'Blah Blah Blah'

    Display page in Firefox or Chrome and inspect element for the tag cloud ... all good!

    Now,
    add the below code into functions.php.

    add_filter('widget_tag_cloud_args','single_post_tag_cloud_tags');
    function single_post_tag_cloud_tags($args) {
    
    		global $post;
    		$post_tag_ids = wp_get_post_tags( $post->ID, array( 'fields' => 'ids' ) );
    		$args = array('include' => implode(',',$post_tag_ids));
    		$args['largest'] = 12; //largest tag
    		$args['smallest'] = 12; //smallest tag
    		$args['format'] = 'list'; //ul with a class of wp-tag-cloud
    	return $args; 
    }

    Whilst the tag cloud is in a list format, all ability to format has been lost ... inspect tag cloud using inspect element.

    Thank You

    Hi All,

    I wonder if anyone has experienced Tag Cloud issues following on from Worpdress 4.3.2.
    As previously mentioned along with the code, I was able to display all tags associated to a single post in a list form along with styling elements. Now all styling elements are lost. If on the other hand I remove the above code then I get the traditional tag cloud appearing with style elements.

    Does anyone know how to display only the tags associated to a single post, whilst having the freedom to style the tag cloud widget?

    Thanks

    Hi Susan,

    Thank you for getting back to me.

    I have a simple question for you. Have you used the staging feature on WP and are you able to test your development site without Google crawling the Dev Site.

    Thanks Mark

    Hi Victor,

    Thank you for you reply.

    My mistake, I meant to say V1.11.2 in the script.
    I am simply code writing/testing in the local environment in readiness to roll out in live.

    The basic principle of a web page loading is the following logical order:

    HTML
    CSS
    JAVA

    In short, when CSS or Java is called upon you need to load them completely before you are able to render additional HTML. This waiting around will cause pagespeed issues that Google frown upon as well as poor user experience. Calling jQuery from Google built in libraries/servers will provide significant pagespeed advantages. However, we need to defer Java and CSS from loading on the page before HTML. Additionally, we need to be able to render all instances above the fold. Therefore, careful planning of site design and structure is key.

    You mention that you load locally Google fonts from your server. Unless your servers out perform Google, have untold resources at there disposal around the world, fault tolerance incase of latency and so forth, you are simply making a call to a basic run of the mill server to deliver a font set to a users browser. Remember, based upon your sites cache configuration and a users previous web browsing experience, there is a high probability that certain objects have already been cached on the user machine. It makes no sense to simply make many calls for the same objects. Again, this is basic 101 on jQuery library scripts.

    I understand that jQuery V1.11.2 must be present before any dependencies, i.e. resposonsive menu, backstretch, etc.

    My original questiion is. how do I pull jQuery 1.11.2 from Google CDN?

    Thank You

    Hi Anitac,

    Wordpress: V3.6
    Genesis: 1.9.2

    I'm using InstantWP therefore cannot provide a test url.

    In short I'm looking for a way the incorporate an icon with a clickable URL and navigation menu all within the header.
    Enterprise theme does not have this as a standard, however the Agency theme does.

    Thanks Mark
