Heya fellows, sorry to be disturbing you, i am sure you have plenty of work to do but…. I really need to find out about this. I adopted the demo News Magazine. I am happy with it but some little questions came after it.
1) Is there a way to turn off the logo thumbnail showing on the top up while scrolling up and down the page?
2) I am sorry, where can I chose a different color than the current black for the tag background?
3) This is the most annoying because I ve trying to fix it the whole morning, and I am not even sure it’s related with the News Magazine layout but I just noticed now… can you please help me determine why my website now resizes the images in browser? I am VERY confused. I tried turning off all plugins. Still the same: when I insert a new image in a post, although the original size of the image is 696px, I only have the option of inserting at a width of 640px. When I load the post in the browser it says the original size was 696px but it was rescaled. The most intriguing thing is that any other already created post shows the images correctly in the browser. Still, if I try to edit the images in an older post, the size available shows 640px. Hope I was clear… this is a confusing matter, at least to me.

Hello,
1) You can disable the logo on the sticky menu from the header settings in the theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/3eaZqAAjTKMQ
2) Assuming you are referring to the category tags, You can nuse css to change the color of the tag:
.td-post-category{
background-color:red;
}
3) I have checkled your images and it seems you are using an image optimiation tool Most likely it;s the photon feature of jetpack .that will re-size the iomages in order to “optimize” them. Please remove any at all image optimization tools.
Thank you!
hey thanks for answering… please read bellow:
1) Solved, thanks!
2) Yeaps, that was it. Solved. Thanks again!
3) Err.. no… as I said I tried it with all plugins disabled. Same problem. I didn’t have Photon but a different image optimizer plugin, but I had it for some time now and just today – perhaps by coincidence after importing the News Magazine template settings – I noticed the problem. Anyway, I tried with all plugins deactivated and still happens this max-width problem. Any further ideas?
Hi,
The image gets an external css with a fixed width from jetpack it seems: http://screencast.com/t/iCiCng0hPtK
If you say you disabled jetpack, please also clear any cache as it could still be served through the caching.
Thank you!
Bogdan, note that disabling all plugins would also disable the cache plugin therefore cache would also not be involved in the problem. I was well aware of that fixed width, but how can you tell where it comes from? Also I consider that my system is unchanged for weeks now… only change was… applying the News Magazin Demo settings.
Still, I followed your last advice and I did this:
1) Turn off Jetpack
2) Clear all cache in my cache manager
3) Disable cache manager plugin
4) Try in a private browser window
And as before, the problem remains. I left it like this so you can see with your own eyes.
Hello,
The best thing to do in this case is for us to take a look at your back-end so please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can investigate this matter. Please also include a link to this topic.
Thank you!
Hi! After a fruitless sequence of e-mails about this subject, I took the time to prepare a better way to show you what is wrong and that it is related with the theme. No, it’s not because of Jetpack, or image alignment or anything else. It’s because of the theme:
1) I installed a fresh testing WordPress just for this. No plugins at all, nothing.
2) I changed media settings to have large thumbnails with 696px width: http://www.screencast.com/t/6SC0sjhjW
3) I uploaded an image using the default WP theme. All good, the large size shows up as 696px: http://www.screencast.com/t/8jh2NtiEw6z
4) Then I switched to your theme and there we go, no more 696px available for the “large” dimension but the odd 640px, for no reason, which is what I was complaining about in my initial post: http://www.screencast.com/t/H9zAnrHgoP
Hi @torgut,
The problem is yours, not the theme.
The secret is in the ratio/scale of the image, you misconfigured the image proportion.
Try to put in your media settings for large size: 696 x 604 (this is the default scale used). If you want to enlarge the dimensions, use photoshop or any image editing program with the option “constrain proportions” activated.
Nice day.
As I said, it works properly with the WP default themes. It doesn’t work well with Newspaper. From this point, I can’t see how to deny the theme responsibility in the problem.
I did follow you recommendation though, tried with media settings for large size 696×604 buts just as before the Newspaper theme forces 640px width for the large size.
Yes Torgut… we both have same problem.. I tried 3 times with clean wordpress installation without any optimization plugin like you did. (actually with no any plugin). this problem comes with theme.. photos are very important for my web site (travel blog) so i want to use my own settings..
Again.. Someone please i need help.. (it seems WE need help)
Ps: To find solution,
1) i tried Image Regenerate, image sizes panel, simple image size, and kind of media library management plugin.. but it didnt help..
2) I changed td_wp_booster_functions like tagdiv said before in somewhere… but it didnt help..
3) I created new media size like 850×0 and make it available in post screen… but it didnt help (it automatically turn 640px again..
4) I tried to change ratio scale of image which fit my images.. but it didnt help stil 640px..
my codding knowledge is very poor.. but i believe that newspaper codders can find solution for this..
Im adding this message to my post also
Bogdan, no I didn’t receive the solution. In fact you wrote me plenty of “solutions” but none of them was actually a solution. Last one, coming through e-mail was:
“Hi @torgut, The problem is yours, not the theme. The secret is in the ratio/scale of the image, you misconfigured the image proportion. Try to put in your media settings for large size: 696×604 (this is the default scale used). If you want to enlarge the dimensions, use photoshop or any image editing program with the option “constrain proportions” activated.”
I did try to do what the “solution” says and it doesn’t work at all. So far the solution is to switch to a different theme, like the WordPress default. And that’s not really a solution, is it?
Hi to all!
First we would want to apologize for the misunderstanding. From the beginning seems we missed the point of your requests.
Our theme sets a 640px value as a reference for content width and this value is also set for large thumb in media gallery. Due to the fact that Newspaper has a 696px width for td-container the usage of large thumb may be inappropriate because the image won’t fit properly.
A solution would be to increase the value of $content_width variable to 696px in td_wp_booster_functions.php file: http://screencast.com/t/7XJUIEMm Like this the large thumb from media gallery will be updated: http://screencast.com/t/sOI46gLDM2
Sorry for the inconvenience. I will add this to our list for future updates and p-ass this information on to the development team and hopefully we will be able to implement a large thumb in a future version of the theme.
Thanks!
Hey Andrei! Super! Thumbs up! I will try this right away, but I have just one question: all I wanted was to have the images the same width as the text… when you say content width, wouldn’t that apply also to the text? Anyway, thanks for paying attention to the problem. I will try it now and will be back with news 🙂
Yeah! It works! Sweet! Thanks!
