Hi - I attempted to clone the Divi Builder-Toolset site jayzerbe.com and copied it to two seperate WP installations and removed the product and media gallery files for the first site.

My objective is to attempt to create two additional sites using the same search configuration as the jayzerbe site.

All looks good accept the {!{wpv-post-title}!} on both new homepages divert back to hidden link

Hi Charles,

Thank you for contacting us and I'll be happy to assist.

As noted in another reply ( https://toolset.com/forums/topic/disable-wordpress-archive/#post-1156313 ), the headings shown on the homepage are regular text and not links.

Some code from a third-party plugin or your active theme is forcing the entire section to act as a link when clicked.

Here is a small test to verify this. You can click in the boxed section in the screenshot, on all 3 websites and you'll see you'll redirect to the homepage of jayzerbe.com:
hidden link

Since this address was not updated during the cloning process, it is most likely that this code is coming from the theme files.

Here is the code that you should be looking for:
( screenshot: hidden link )

<script type="text/javascript">
  var et_link_options_data = [{"class":"et_pb_text_3","url":"https:\/\/jayzerbe.com","target":"_self"},{"class":"et_pb_text_6","url":"https:\/\/jayzerbe.com","target":"_self"}];
</script>

If you're not able to find it from the theme files, it would be best to get in touch with your Divi theme's support team for more information about this code.

I hope this helps.

regards,
Waqar

Thank you Waqar,

This is great information and I shold be able to track it down. I haven't really explored the Toolset modules articles yet. Would that be the preferred way to reuse Toolset elements rather than by cloning?

Hi Charles,

Thanks for the update and glad that information helped.

The "Module Manager" ( ref: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/modules-exporting-and-importing/ ) is a great tool when your requirement is to move only Toolset's structural components (e.g. views, content templates, definitions of custom post types and fields etc).

But it doesn't include any data or content (e.g. posts, pages, custom posts or values of custom fields etc) and for cases, where you need to move the website as a whole, cloning/migration plugins are a better option.

I hope this clarifies the difference.

regards,
Waqar
