Hi,

Please note that some footer templates come with predefined content and some are blank templates – https://www.screencast.com/t/rZ6XZRTc You can add or remove widgets in the footer like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/jyWe6Mq0u
You can remove the block title border with this code, enter it in Theme panel->Custom Css

.td_block_16 .block-title {
border-bottom: none;
}

Result – https://www.screencast.com/t/s67h5TVjkmjC

It will work only for block 16 on your page (Calculator), if you want to remove the bottom border on all the block titles on the page use this code instead

.block-title {
border-bottom: none;
}

Result – https://www.screencast.com/t/1bPxgpG8

Hi,

That sorting options displays the most popular posts in the last 7 days, based on their views – https://forum.tagdiv.com/7-days-post-sorting/ just make sure to have post views enabled in theme panel – https://www.screencast.com/t/dyoY2FRm20R

Hi, I would like to change the front pagination on kenyannews.co.ke, instead of “load more” to be “<!–nextpage–>” to be lable 1 2 3 4, i.e under blocks. like this – https://snag.gy/nJsuxD.jpg

Plus is there a setting to change the pagination color, like the load more button.

Hi,

Unfortunately these are the only available block pagination options at the moment – https://www.screencast.com/t/grU2iTzp4 If you want to implement a different pagination for the blocks, it will have to be custom made, with modifications to the theme files – https://www.screencast.com/t/dtwQzrJEm6 and would require coding skills.
You could change the pagination font color using css like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/DZAOr5ylxPx
This is the code I used, but you could add more properties to it. Here is a tutorial about using the browser inspector tool to create custom code – https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/ by identifying the elements on the page and their classes.

.td-load-more-wrap a {
color: yellow;
}

Thanks

Should i replace with this code <!–nextpage–> or? I would appreciate if you help me how to do it.

Post count: 20688

Hi,

It is not that simple to create a new pagination for a block. This requires coding skills and if you want to implement something like this, I suggest hiring a freelancer/developer to help you achieve this because it is not an easy task and unfortunately we can not provide custom work at the moment, sorry. Maybe some new options regarding this will be available in a future update, but I can not promise anything or give an exact date.

Thank you for understanding!

1. I would like to add ‘wordpress popular posts’ widget only under widgetised sidebar on the homepage, https://snag.gy/K9UIa1.jpg

2. I have choosen blog 9 to ‘stretch row’ so as the blue color can fill both on the right and left side bt that is not showing up. website:http://kenyannews.co.ke

Hi,

1. You can create as many sidebars as you want, and can have one personalized sidebar only for the homepage and use it in the widgetised sidebar element.
2. Please correct me if I misunderstand, but I do not see a block 9 on your homepage, except from the one in the sidebar. Basically you have to stretch the row containing the block – https://www.screencast.com/t/FTsbXN4Qz6XP and set a background color – https://www.screencast.com/t/TPgVYvICJ

1. please check the screenshot, i need the ‘wordpress popular post’ to go to the widgetised sidebar under ‘newspaper default’ but not the whole newspaper.
2. I meant big grid 9, i have already chosen stretch row,

Post count: 20688

Hi,

Any widget added in a sidebar will appear only where that sidebar is used. Add the widget to the sidebar you want and use that on the homepage.
When there is a background set, that is the way the background appears on the row in the page container. If the website would not be boxed it would stretch to full width. You could use some css in this case like in this example – https://www.screencast.com/t/8cYjTfO39zez or add a custom class to that row and use that in the code.
Please make sure to enter the code in Advanced Css so it does not affect smaller devices.

.td-boxed-layout .vc_custom_1490795677629 {
width: 1164px!important;
margin-left:-48px!important;
}

I would like to remove the category description on the front side as seen on this screenshot – https://snag.gy/MG5drW.jpg

Thanks

Hi,

You could hide the category description with some Css. If you want to hide it for all your categories you can use a code like this
https://www.screencast.com/t/5UaEua0Gaohttps://www.screencast.com/t/BHRFlif7G05
And if you would like to remove it on a particular category, like this
https://www.screencast.com/t/Uf37Harm6
This is the code used, you must adapt it for your category if you want it to apply for a specific category, or use it like it is for all the category pages

.category .td-category-description {
display: none;
}

Another way of doing it would be to edit the category template files from the theme that you want or use for that category, and remove the code responsible with the category description – https://www.screencast.com/t/4EuRaO4DJ

Hi, I’m trying to set border around the grind/blocks, but the don’t reflect. After updating the settings refresh to default. See this screnshot; https://snag.gy/RhpWjr.jpg. Am i doing it right?

Post count: 20688

Hi,

The border should appear where you set it. Just make sure you configure it properly. It needs these parameters in order to display – https://www.screencast.com/t/PBRwQXPwf

And is there away i can set categories to show post number differently, Like on Jobs category to show 20 posts and on politics category to show 30 posts? Instead of them being same under wordpress – setting – reading – Blog pages show at most (eg 20) posts

Post count: 20688

Hi,

The setting from WordPress will affect all categories at the same time. However I am sure that there are plugins that can override this. Maybe try and search for custom post limit for category plugins, and see what you can find.

Is there a way i can display popular post for seven days using the inbuilt theme display without showing the view count on each post?

question two: is it possible to use jetpack popular posts plugin to display only the popular posts in 24/48 hours in a certain category only? I have tried to display only the popular posts in certain category and failed.

Hi,

The view count needs to be enabled in the theme panel in order for the feature to work. You could try to simply hide the view count on the post page for example
https://www.screencast.com/t/98lGmX81Ad7
There could be a way to achieve that with the jetpack plugin. You will just have to search for solutions online and maybe see if it is possible and how. Like this topic for instance

Hi,

Seems to work properly – https://www.screencast.com/t/N5uQN3Omu
Just make sure you write it correctly

.single .td-post-views {
