3. Commons Issues
3.1. Why can’t I install or upload the template?
Our team designed and tested Piki Templates, which can be installed without issues. If you face any problems, please visit the documentation in the template’s post.
3.2. I have 10+ posts, but only five are on the homepage. Why?
When you have enough posts (e.g., 10 to 15 posts) on your blogger dashboard, but your website only displays 2 or 3 posts, this issue happens due to the blogger’s 1MB limitation. Which means your post has some heavy data or codes. You must use a page jump break to solve the issue or a Clear text format to delete the junk data created in your posts.
Use Clear Text Format Method
1: Go to Blogger > Open Posts.
2: Then Select all the text.
3: Tap on Clear Formatting
.
4: Done! Save the post.
Note: Your changes will be lost after applying “Clear Formatting” to your posts. To save your changes, use our Notepad Editor Tool. Read more about how this tool can help you.
Use Jump Page Break
1: Go to Blogger > Open Posts.
2: Then, put the cursor below the first paragraph.
3: Then, Tap on Insert Jump Break
.
4: Done! Save the post.
3.3. Why is the free version template automatically redirected to another website?
The free version templates are designed to be used with limited features, so we did not allow the footer credit to be removed from the layout. Please do not remove the footer credit to stop redirection.
4. Support Questions
4.1. How do I get the new update for my template?
The new updates will be emailed to all buyers. You can also log into your dashboard and download the update manually.
4.2. Why are my ads not showing on your template?
There is no link between ads that are not showing with the template. When we change the template, Google AdSense takes some time to show ads from advertisers. Allow more than 48 hours and check back again.
4.3. Why are only 2 posts showing on the popular post gadget?
If your post has Enough views, it will be appropriately displayed on popular post gadgets. Otherwise, some posts may be missing.
4.4. How do we show category-wise posts on the homepage?
The documentation for each template is inside the file and template post. You must check and read it to understand the installation procedure for all features.
