Hi, I have also posted some other request for support yesterday but no answer yet. (https://gp24.ro)
Meanwhile, I ran into other problems that may be (or not) be related.
The speed of TD Composer is like very slow, to not say ridiculously slow.
When we make changes to the main page with TD Composer in many occasions when we go to see the result and come back we get all sorts of errors that seem only to be resolved if we delete cache on the page as well as in the browser. I am sure that this is not the normal way…
At this very moment I am trying to resolve a banner placement (this I have been trying ALL WEEKEND, just so you can imagine my mood after all this wasted time) But it seems that whatever I do is not working. (this apart from the time it takes for TD Composer to actually place a block I usually refresh the page if it takes more than 10 (!!!!!) minutes let alone to save in case I get to make an actual change) We have similar positions on the main page, the first one is the Flex Block 1 called Video-Popular with a banner underneath. A bit further down we have a similar situation 9or at least we want it to be the same) with a Flex Block 1 called Moto-Popular and also a banner underneath. But no matter what settings we try we can not get it to work in a way that it shows this banner, On the live website it keeps showing the Flex Block and it kinda scrolls with the website instead of staying put.
In regard to banners we noticed that the theme came with Slider Revolution, but also this works so slow that we (temporarily) installed Soliloquy-Lite (which works fine in terms of requirements) What is the best option for the theme?
To avoid questions about my internet speed and o the server speed:
Internet Digi Romania Gigabit, with actual speed never below 800Mbps Down and 500Mbps Up.
Contabo VPS L-SSD Package (8 core, 30GB Ram, 800GB SSD, 600Mbit Uplink)
Bitcatcha server score slightly better than Tagdiv.com 🙂
Other Issues I want to resolve are related to site caching, Image Optimization and Multi Language.
What are the theme compatible best performing plugins for this?
For Caching and Image Optimization we have premium versions of WP_Rocket and Imagify but maybe this is not working well.
(Our Google Pagespeed Insights scores have never been so low, not even when we were using Magbook on shared hosting!)
The change from Magbook to Newspaper mixed up a lot of the multi language things such as menus etc. Currently we are on a free version of Polylang, but we are thinking of going back to premium version of WPML, but prefer to be sure to know what is the best option for the Newspaper theme.
Quite a few questions and the way things are going now there might be more 🙁
I hope you guys can help us out as we did have very high expectation of the best News Theme, but so far it has been a bumpy ride.
Hi,
In order to fix the problem with tagDiv Composer, please make sure that all the settings are like in our requirements, please follow the guide carefully
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
and please increase all requirements that are lower, and follow all steps.
Also please make sure that you do not have a plugin conflict, please deactivate ALL plugins except tagDiv Composer, also if you are using child theme or cache plugin, deactivate them, clear all cache and try again.
Also I think that you want to use a sticky column -> https://tagdiv.com/multiple-sticky-sidebars/
Also there was some new implementations in them plugins, that make the theme faster, please disable tagDiv plugins, delete theme and reinstall the plugins from Newspaper > welcome section (you can install them one by one from Newspaper > plugin).
The page speed of your website depends on how well your site is optimized, if you follow the steps which are presented in this tutorial here -> https://tagdiv.com/how-to-increase-page-loading-speed/ you’ll be able to increase the speed of your website.

For the multi-langue plugin, Unfortunately we do not tested the polylang plugin with our website, you have tested only the wpml plugin, but this do not mean that you can not try polylang .
For WPML please check this similar topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/the-wpml-integration-is-buggy/
Let me know the results!
Thank you
