Hi, Amber
This is a link that could come in handy

Plugins that need to be updated to be ready for the move to PHP 5 constructors
https://gist.github.com/chriscct7/d7d077afb01011b1839d

Nothing wrong... ask as many.
f i know an answer, I /we will give it you.
Again, I suspect your theme .
This was also my experience.

OR.... maybe you have added a plugin that conflicts with something else.

Check with your sociable plugin...
It did the same thing with me too.so I dumped the sociable plugin,

Thanks,Great topic Amber,I'll be saving for future reference......Marty

Hi Amber, good question and I'm bookmarking for the answers in case I need it myself at some point.
Thanks
Mark

See my answer below Mark!

Kathy sorted it out for me!

Thought so Amber, she's a diamond!!

See my answer above Kathy!! ;-)

In Appearance - Menu, look up and you'll see "manage locations", make sure you have the right menu selected for where you want it displayed.
Different themes have different options depending on how many menus they have.

Thank you so much Kathy, your help sorted me out! While i've got you here, do you know if the adsense ads will be brought over in time? The posts have the spaces where they should be, but there is still no ads there?

Have you checked that the code is in the widgets? When you change themes things can get mucked up a bit.

Where would I have to go to see that code? Some posts are showing the ads at the bottom of the post but not all of them and all of the ads in the middle of the posts are not showing...I think you are right about the code though.

Hey Kathy, if the ads are showing up on my site via the iPhone, does that mean that they will show up on my pc?

You should be able to see them on your site too, can you give me the link to a specific post where you have the ads

It's really strange, the ads show up on my husbands computer but they are still blank on mine, even when I log out of WP. Google adsense site health has gone down too, so I'm not sure what's happening.

Here is a general post you can look at...I am meant to have an adsense ad in the middle and below the post.

http://howtomakemiracles.com/what-is-the-science-of-getting-rich-about

I can see your ads fine, the only thing it can be is your browser. Have you cleared the cache or tried using another browser?

Will give it a whirl...thanks a bunch Kathy

You're welcome, let me know if you fix it!

All good, I needed a new browser! Many thanks again Kathy

Excellent, glad you got it sorted!

Hey Amber, check in your menus under appearance and make sure that the new theme has not defaulted your menu back, this can happen if you had created a custom menu in your last theme.

How would I see if it has defaulted or not? In the menus under appearance I can still see the custom link and sub item there but I don't know how to make it show up on the new theme

Hey Amber, sorry I didn't get back to you, but it looks as though Kathy331 got you sorted.
Glad its fix for you.

Did you add the custom link and sub item to the menu

They were already there in the menu on my dash, but doesn't appear on the site

Hi guys, I changed the theme and can see the spaces where my ads were, but they aren't there. Please don't tell me that I have to add them manually lol

Isee you got it taken care of, I had no idea a browser could afect this.

What theme?

Remember, some themes are not written perfectly.
some do malfunction; Clashing with plugins.

Hi, sorry to hear this, but I am afraid this is what happens, some people have already reported that banners vanish. Wait for a while and see if they will appear.

I'm assuming you have used a widget or pluggin to place the ads, are those still there with the new theme?

The widgets say the ads are still there. I can see one of the ads at the bottom show up, still waiting for the mid one to come up. Fingers crossed :o)

Me too, let us know how it goes. So the end one that shows is fomr the same adsense account? Seems strange one shows and others don't.

working now as I had to open in a new browser and clear cache. Thank god there are heaps of technical people out the otherwise I'd be in trouble lol

Whew, good result.

You must have had a reason,It'l come back and be better!

Let's hope it does!

Hi Amber. I've seen this myself. I think if you can see the spaces where the ads should be, it may be just a matter of time before they're apparent. My solution to everything is to try refresh lolol. Would this help..?

I hope it does, the ads show up on my phone but not on my pc

I thought I'd change my wordpress theme today and everything seemed ok apart from google analytics not showing my "log on" as such and my menu missing a page. So I have gone bac

Have you added your analytics i.d to your new theme

The menu is an easy fix, that happens every now and then.

If you copy/pasted the Google Analytics code in the header.php file, you will have to do it every time you change the Theme. Better way is to paste the UA-Nr. in the field provided by All in one SEO

John

I just had the same problems I also changed my theme few days ago and analytics didn't work it said I was not linked in. Went back to my original theme and all was OK. Which is weird as I have changed theme before with no issue. I am wondering if the new WordPress update had something to do with it as it was about the same time.
Perhaps may need to re verify with using a new theme not sure.

with the All in One Seo there was no change it still didn't work I even went through Kyle on video on this today no go. So I change back to the old theme and it worked for now I will leave it at that. But later might need to try to add into the new theme. Thank for the help appreciated. At the moment it's all good. Hope Amber has her's working as it's her blog
Take care be well
Andre

It must be the theme as I have change other themes with no issues. Either that or there was some bug in the systems.

It seems like a bug as I just tried it again with the theme concerned and it worked.

WA Affiliate Program

Ok, having my second blonde moment here at WA (I think that's not too shabby either lol) I just came back from holidays and saw this Invitation accepted in my email and was abou

Congrats Amber on a new referral!!

Hi Amber,
Thanks for reminding me--haven't set up my messages yet. How was Greece? Or did you have to alter your plans?
Find the messages by clicking on the jet at the top of the page and then clicking on messages. They are explained and can be altered.

Greece was great, will write a short blog soon!

Hi Amber long time no see. I think blonde moments and WA go hand in hand. I've certainly had a few. Congrats!

:o)

Congrats on your achievement.
Well done.
-Theuns

yes - it is covered so that auto replies are sent. Well done on the referral.

Where was I when he talked about it??? : ) Must of missed that too. Thanks for asking the question!

Yes, Kyle covers this in the Boot Camp training. I have also mentioned how to do this this in my training.

Angela has given you the link for setting them up.

And Loes has training here: If you already had the messages in the system, they would have been sent to the person's profile page automatically.

However, you cannot go backwards in time for automated sending, so you can go to their profile page and post there. ~Jude

Will check it out Jude, I posted a hello on their personal page already, right after carsons greeting...I'm feeling so embarrassed :o/

It happens. Congrats on your referrals. ~Jude

Thanks for sharing Jude, congratiolations Amber:)

Hiya Amber
It happened to me when I got a referral when I hadn't even started marketing and I thought the strange message I got was just a test one.
So I sent the lady concerned a manual welcome post and did my messages pronto.
Yes, when you write your messages they are sent automatically to your new referrals.
Hope this helps
Mark

I wish I had known that before I quickly wrote my own message as it was only a few lines

You setup your messages here
https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/share/messages

when someone signups via your affiliate link, they will automatically receive your welcome message within an hour of signing up.

I saw that, but what happens when I add it?

Thanks for that Angela. What do you suggest now that I have jumped the gun and wrote my own hello etc to them?

still set up your message for the next time and you can do the other messages which will prompt them if they don't fill out their profile and congratulate them when going premium.

Just the first one on the list?

I would do all of them

Shouldn't take long when your in the flow.

Sorry for all the questions as I haven't done bootcamp yet...so add them all in one go?

yes, they won't be delivered all at once :) the system will send them at the appropriate time

Pay Per Click Marketing

I got an email from Amazon a week or so ago saying that if I can't make a referral in 90 or so days that they would cancel my account. So I got onto my partners computer and bou

I have never gotten an email from Amazon saying that I sold something. I have had my store for many many years. But they are usually fair. It's just business and legalities with them.

that is typical amazon.
it is a matter of getting traffic to your site( s), and getting sales through them.
Typical of a company who went corporate mindset.

Bottom line is the $$$$.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong with it as I can't seem to sell anything even though I'm starting to get good traffic (well at least what I consider to be here and there)

let me do some research on it also.

I received the same message, not a great way to do business. Hey as Jeffrey said there are plenty of other Affiliates that don't have strange rules. Nothing to stress about. Don't buy any more books.

Don't sweat it, amazon can be a pain. If they cancel you, there's a gazillion other affiliate programs out there. I had a electronics site awhile back and they cancelled me for not enough relevant content, google search your niche + affiliate programs you will find plenty. good luck

Thanks for the support Jeffrey :o)

If they were able to track your ip address, they may not credit you for the sale

check your "orders" report. it, should show up there.

Thanks for bring this to our attention. If nothing else, I will make sure my orders while at work on her computer and not here at home. Just in case.

yes because of tracking cookies, probably 24 hours. If its done again, clean out cookie files and cache.

Is your partners computer on same internet service?

Yes, but he has his own amazon account

Amazon is tricky. Just not sure if since both of you have same Internet provider, if they figured out the referral trick you did? It may take awhile to show up. Very good question, hope you get more help here.

I have done the same thing with an astore, but I got my referral commission. It may take awhile because of returns etc..But you should at least see something soon in your affiliate account?

I hope so, otherwise I'm pretty much stuffed I think...

Did you know that they have a customer service and/or affiliate help phone number? Do a search for it and call them.

Don't know how I would explain my dilemma, they may say that's not allowed lol

Just try to call them.

You will not get an email from Amazon saying that you sold something (or in your case, bought something off your website) but if you sign into your Amazon affiliate account and click on Expense Summary you should see info on your sale.

There is nothing there in that summary, just a few clicks nothing else...lots of zeros too lol

If you used your credit card they won't pay you for it and they can cancel your account for it.

Will have to wait and see then...if that's the case I don't know what else to do as I mainly sell books
