    Hello, thanks for responding to my other topics. I have a few questions/problems regarding my blog: http://alchemizesolutions.com/blog/

    1. When you open a post, it shows the older posts on the left arrow of the page and vice versa. That seems illogical to me. I want the newer posts to be shown in the left arrow. If you don’t know what I am talking about, it is the small arrows that stick to the edges of the blog posts to take you to the next/previous posts and when you hover over it shows title and picture. Please, if there is a permanent fix for this i’d really appreciate it.

    2. When you go to the blog page, it shows the entire entry, even though in the blog posts element settings, I have set it to show ‘excerpt with read more link’.

    3. I don’t know whether this is something you could help with, but I have no idea what to make of this: Google shows in their results all my main pages but for some reason does not want to index the individual posts. If you search for the title of one of my posts, you will notice it does not appear in the results. I have tried Yoast SEO plugin, added the sitemap to google webmasters, made google fetch the posts, followed everything by the book, tried deactivating the plugin, and all other plugins. Still nothing, month after month. I am very confused and don’t know what to do. I believe my business will grow with a good blog but if Google is not showing the posts, then there is no point.

    Hi shadyraymond!

    1- Please go to Appearance > Editor and open functions-enfold.php file and find

    $entries['prev'] = get_previous_post($settings['same_category'], $settings['excluded_terms'], $settings['taxonomy']);
	            $entries['next'] = get_next_post($settings['same_category'], $settings['excluded_terms'], $settings['taxonomy']);
	        }
	        else
	        {
	            $entries['prev'] = get_previous_post($settings['same_category']);
	            $entries['next'] = get_next_post($settings['same_category']);

    and change it to

    $entries['next'] = get_previous_post($settings['same_category'], $settings['excluded_terms'], $settings['taxonomy']);
	            $entries['prev'] = get_next_post($settings['same_category'], $settings['excluded_terms'], $settings['taxonomy']);
	        }
	        else
	        {
	            $entries['next'] = get_previous_post($settings['same_category']);
	            $entries['prev'] = get_next_post($settings['same_category']);

    2- You can simply click on “Insert More Tag” to add read more button to your blog posts http://i.imgur.com/4RmtaLS.jpg
    3- As far as i know, no one else reported such issue. I asked @dude to share his opinion. Let us wait for his answer.
    Best regards,

    Thanks for the reply.

    1. I have made the changes, it is working fine now. But will I have to do this every time the theme updates?
    2. I have managed to fix this. It was my fault.
    3. Google has finally decided to index my posts.

    Thanks again guys :)
