Hello,
Wanted to say that I recently purchased this theme and it’s exactly what I was looking for! To start off, I updated the theme to 7.5 today as well as the plugins… all went well. A great majority of the questions I had were answered in the forums already and the changes were made successfully. My site is nearly complete except for the following adjustments:
1. Mobile header
First, I deactivated the mobile theme plugin since I want the mobile site to look like the desktop version. My logo color is blue #1369bf and I was able to change the search icon to this color as well. However the menu bars are still black and I’ve tried all the options in the Theme Panel. Please help me change this to blue.
2. Author page
Remove the comments box: http://www.screencast.com/t/yE8vdAOftrp
3. Related Articles
Instead of the “Next Prev ajax” pagination, I want to change it to the “Load More” button. I am looking to display random posts from all categories as well.
4. Category page
I would like to make these three adjustments:
a. Align the category name in the center, font size increased to 40px, and font weight is normal (not bold): http://www.screencast.com/t/OPhQfaoEn
b. I turned off the category pull-down filter for all categories and would like to display random posts instead of latest
c. My site has 5 categories and I created another named “Trending” for the menu: http://www.screencast.com/t/EPJDLIX9bJVQ
No article will be classified under the Trending category though. I want to be able to click on Trending and it will link to the category page template. However, this page will display the trending posts from ‘all categories’ instead of random posts from a specific category (as mentioned above).
Thanks again for the great support! 🙂
Mike
Hello,
Thank you for purchasing our theme. we hope it will help bring your project to it;s final state.
1. If you do NOT use the mobile theme, the mobile colors are handled from here: http://screencast.com/t/AnpefXMn18
If you DO use the mobiel theme, the mobile colors have to be changed from the mobile theme settings: http://screencast.com/t/ZjyA2m2VWJU
2. Please provide an example of the author page. Our author pages do not have comments set to them.
3. This can only be done through customization. There are no settings to change the pagination on the related articles section. Sorry.
4. a. this depends on the category template that you choose. There are multiple category templates to choose from. Please specify on which category template do you want to change the title to: http://screencast.com/t/JqvYxQ16t1j
b. The categories do not have any sorting option set to them. They use the same loop feature of wordpress that shows the articles in a standard blog hoempage. this is the standard loop feature and there is no simple way of changing it’s functionality.
c. You can use a page for this element and create it using our theme blocks and using the block settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
Thank you!
Hi Bogdan,
Thank you for your assistance! I was able to solve the problems in #4 by creating pages for each category and it works as I wanted. Here are the issues with the others:
1. When changing the “menu bar – icons color”, it only changes the search icon but not the menu bars: http://www.screencast.com/t/n3HvKO3n4D
2. Author page: http://www.screencast.com/t/lqFaAhwk9
3. I can live with the Next Prev pagination, but is there a way to display random posts from ‘all categories’ instead of only related articles?
Thanks again!
Hello,
1. Please clear your cache after you change the theme panel options as it may affect the change. The option I mentioned changes the menu bar like so: http://screencast.com/t/HiWza2CK unless you are referring to a different menu bar. Provide more details if this is not what you meant
2. Use this css code in the theme panel-< custom css box:
.td-author-comments-count{
display:none;
}3. Well the widget is called “related articles”, not “random articles”. I think that is self explanatory what it’s been created for. You will have to change it’s functionality if you want random posts displayed there and that means changing the code for the element.
Here is a topic that explains this process:

Thank you!
Hi Bogdan,
Thank you for the explanation on the related articles, and the CSS code for #2 works.
For the menu bars, I apologize for the confusion. I am referring to the 3 lines on the left side of the header/menu.
Hi,
If you want to change the color of the ‘hamburger menu’ icon, you can do it like so: http://screencast.com/t/zdjErKVr9Ya
If your search changes but your menu icon does not, then please provide a link to your site so I can inspect this behavior.
Thank you!
Hi Bogdan,
Unfortunately only the search icon is changed and the hamburger icon remains black.
More info: http://www.screencast.com/t/lNBTHWAaZ
Can you please provide a link to your site so I can inspect the menu to see why this happens? You can send it to us in private if you do not wish to post it here: contact@tagdiv.com and post a link to this topic so we can identify you.
Thank you!
Hi Bogdan,
The link is included in the picture above.
Hi,
It seems the demo you installed (health demo) has a custom css that forces the black color on the hamburger menu. In this case you must add this css in your theme panel->custom css box to change the color:
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-health #td-top-mobile-toggle i {
color: #1369bf !important;
}
Thank you!
