[COMPLETED] PortalHongKong.com — WordPress Dev Tasks

Technical fixes required by a WordPress developer / site admin for portalhongkong.com. These tasks cannot be completed by the data enrichment agent and must be assigned to a developer with backend access to the WordPress installation and Google Search Console. --- TASK LIST & PRIORITY #1 | [P1 - URGENT] Fix Homepage Counter Bug Priority: URGENT Who: WordPress developer / site admin The homepage displays 0 Categories, 0 Locations, 0 Resources. Counters are broken and make the site look abandoned. Fix the JavaScript or WordPress widget responsible for pulling these counts. #2 | [P1 - URGENT] Generate & Submit XML Sitemap to Google Priority: URGENT Who: WordPress admin + Google Search Console access /sitemap.xml returns 404. Google cannot efficiently crawl the site. Install/configure SEO plugin (Yoast or Rank Math), verify sitemap is live, and submit to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools. #3 | [P2 - IMPORTANT] Fix Duplicate URL Structure Priority: IMPORTANT Who: WordPress developer Two URL patterns exist for the same pages: /education/ and /category/education/ — causing duplicate content issues that hurt Google rankings. Set up 301 redirects from old URLs to canonical ones. #4 | [P2 - IMPORTANT] Add JSON-LD LocalBusiness Schema to Listing Template Priority: IMPORTANT Who: WordPress developer No structured data on listing pages. Google cannot extract rich results (address, phone, hours). Implement JSON-LD LocalBusiness schema in the listing template. Matthew Kassel will supply the ready-to-use code. #5 | [P2 - IMPORTANT] Investigate & Fix Blank Listing Pages Priority: IMPORTANT Who: WordPress developer Some listing pages render blank — page loads but shows no content. Likely a JS error, plugin conflict, or broken template. Check browser console, identify root cause, and fix. #6 | [P3 - WHEN READY] Add Google Maps Embed Field to Listing Template Priority: WHEN READY Who: WordPress developer / site admin Listing pages have no Google Maps embed. Add a custom field for the Maps iframe and display it on listing pages. Confirm the data agent can populate this field via the API. --- Site: https://portalhongkong.com Data Agent: Matthew Kassel (@matthew-kassel) Project Manager: Geraldine
