Hi Jerry
This is a standard feature of WordPress and is controlled within the theme's code.
Here is a link to a response to someone else's question to the Generate Press team ...

You will see that it is possible but means setting up a child theme and changing a little code.

Thank you Richard!

Believe that can be set in Settings > Discussions.

I'd look at below resource

https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-rearrange-comments-in-wordpress-display-the-most-recent-one-on-top/

Hope this may help

Thanks, Abie, but I tried that already. It is not about older/newer comments being on top. I would like to see the comment box right under the article, not below all comments.

Not practical having it above the post | article, because folks want to read your content, then comment. - it would be like Facebook pages commenting.

However I try find you a solution.

What if you have 100 comments, but people just want to comment?

I have been looking so far I have found reply button moved to top of comment or comments moved to another post. But not what you are seeking.

However, may be if you know coding and can edit the code however I will keep looking.

I would not edit code on the actual thing vs testing site see how it turns out before applying to main.

Thank you for your patience meanwhile.

I would certainly not alter the code. Thanks for your efforts and maybe there just is no solution.
I am just trying to solve the riddle of getting 40,000 and more clicks and not getting one comment outside the WA community.

Hey Georg,

Here is a Google Guide to help you: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/183668?hl=en

If you are using the sitemap plugin that Kyle recommends, you could review your setting using the following tutorial: Removing unnecessary things like categories and tags, has kept my sites from experiencing this issue.

If the setting changed does not resolve your issue, you could put in a ticket to the plugin's developer and ask them how to handle this issue. As that would be your only other alternative.

Have noticed that the WA search in this new platform, is now buried so deep that we need to leave the page we are working on in order to find training that has been shared.

Hope you find this helpful.

Thanks for your reply, I looked at the Google guide and the training. I am using Kyle's plugin recommendation.
In the meantime I also was in contact with the plugin developer, who insisted the feature was in.
Strangely enough, when I opened sitemap, I briefly saw that setting and the max of 1,000 posts, after which it disappeared!
Anyway, issue resolved.

Hi
GSC stop requesting for index, they upgrade. Mybe soon can, if u have paste sitmap.xml first they automatically reading all post/page.. if have red mean something happen.. all the best. 👍👍

Previously, I fetched all my posts to GSC, which usually were then indexed within a day. After I put the sitemap in again and today I fetched my latest post, it said Google knows this page already and indexing was disable. So, there you go!

I am regularly updating existing posts, and also comments are added. Do we need to inform Google any time a post has been updated or commented to? Or do Google algorithms see t

Hi Georg, I typically do a URL inspection on posts I update through webmaster tools. I update no more than 10 posts a day. Hope this helps!

Thanks, Vitaliy.

Anytime my friend!

Thank you so much for your question Siam, it also helped to understand a few things here. Wishing you great success.

Google's bot's will crawl your site to find these automatically, however, if it is a major content change that you have done, you can log in to Google Search Console and use the URL Inspection tool (left-hand menu) to force Google to re-index the page before the next scheduled crawl by one of their bots.

Thanks, that will do!

How often do the bots crawl a site?

That depends on how popular your website is, how frequently you publish content, other sites linking back to your site and whether you use sitemaps and the URL inspection tool. It can be as little as a few hours up to 6 months.

I put sitemaps into search console and just yesterday started requsting indexing on my newest posts

You're going in the right direction, well done :-)

Over the last three weeks I produced some 12 posts and none of them were indexed according to WA. To my surprise, the last post, published yesterday, got indexed today! What ha

There could be a lag between the messages and indexing. I always know if I'm publishing from my WP site, then it'll be fine and I won't need to worry about WA telling me if it's indexed or not.

Same situation with me. I'll use Robert-A's suggestion.

You're much better manually indexing your posts as soon as you publish them.
It will take a wee while to get them ranked but indexing is the first step.
Go into your Google Console and check on them there.
Robert

Ok, thanks.

No probs and hope ypou got sorted ok.

I received the following message from Google: "Google has recently encountered an expired SSL/TLS certificate for https://howtobeatyourboss.com/. Most browsers perceive a site

Nice to know what to do if this happens. Thanks. shary

Hey Georg,

Your SSL certificate looks fine from my end and it's valid until July 3rd when we will automatically renew it for you.

No issues I can see with this ssl certificate - it's valid.

Carson

Thanks Carson, strange message from Google then.

Yay, it's fixed :)

I had this problem a while ago. I sent a copy of the message to site support and they fixed it right away.
Kathy

Thanks, I just contacted site support.

WAs the SSL certificate through WA? If so, then I'd contact support Georg.

Thanks Vitaliy, it was through WA so I send them the message.

Awesome, keep me posted on this Georg.
