The comics are not showing up for some reason. What could be the problem?
- Reset/flush your permalinks by going to "Settings > Permalinks". Click the "Save Changes" button.
- Make sure the latest posts are setup to be displayed on your home page. Do this by going to "Settings > Reading" make sure you select the "Your latest posts" option, then click on the "Save Changes" button.
- Try changing to a different home page layout("Appearance > Customize > Home Page Layout") and see if that makes a difference.

Toocheke is not working, and I cannot figure out the reason why. Help?!
- Make sure you have the latest version of WordPress installed. Toocheke works best on WordPress 5.3 or newer. For the security of your website, it's also always a good idea to have the latest version of WordPress installed.
- Make sure your web host has installed the latest version of PHP on your website. At least PHP version 7.3 is ideal.
There could be a plugin conflict. Generally speaking, it's always ideal to have as few plugins as possible running on your WordPress website. The more plugins you have installed, the more likely you are to decrease the performance, security and reliability of your website.
So, try and uninstall plugins that you no longer use and retain the ones that are absolutely essential. Alternatively, temporarily disable all your plugins(except for Toocheke Companion) and see if that resolves the issue. If it does, re-activate the plugins one by one while checking to make sure that no issues come up. This will help narrow down your issue.
If you do identify a plugin that is conflicting with Toocheke, contact us, and we will look into it.

I am currently using the Comic Easel/ComicPress with a lot of comics in my archive. Is there a quick way to import my comics without having to manually re-upload them?
How do I add a WordPress administrator account?
Is Toocheke mobile-friendly?
Do you accept feature requests?
- Is there a popular demand for the feature?
- Will adding the feature require a total rewrite of the whole theme?
- Will the feature be in keeping with Toocheke's ultimate goal ie. building a simple, intuitive, mobile-friendly theme for publishing webcomics?
- How quickly can the feature be added into the theme? If it takes little effort, then there's a high chance of adding the functionality.
