I updated to Newspaper X no problem last week
I was having to work through changing blocks since the update etc so that Standard Pack plugin could be deactivated etc like many others
Aside from this – this morning I tried to update to Newspaper 10.1 – using the dashboard method which I always use.
1. Activate another theme
2. Delete Newspaper
3. Upload 10.1 Newspaper.zip
The site opened but all the TagDiv plugins failed ‘ajax error’ on the opening TagDiv theme page – I then lost dashboard access and the front end has lots of code like the image attached before reaching the site –
When you say in the forum update advice ‘delete plugins’ – is there another step now? Like below? Or is the Dashboard advice still the same
1. Activate another theme
1a. DELETE TD PLUGINS from dashboard?
2. Delete Newspaper
3. Upload 10.1 Newspaper.zip
Site restored to Version 10
But how do I update to 10.1 without the same issue repeating?
Is it different from before – do we delete plugins AND theme or just theme
Documentation should be clearer and there wouldn’t be so many confused users!
Hello !
Please make sure that you do the procedure properly according to our documentation here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
The best way to update the Newspaper Theme is to delete the current Newspaper Theme version and TagDiv Plugins and after that you can install the new version.
You can find 9.8 version here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/action-required-please-read-how-to-update-to-the-newspaper-theme-v-10/
