Hi, i know we need to use mobile theme with classic amp plugin but settings don’t permit to use ads placement as we like.
I mean, specific ads placement are possible for mobile theme OR amp theme but not AND. And auto ads for amp doesn’t interest me.
So, the thing is with “amp for wp” paid version, there is the newspaper theme available. And it looks like yours, this is your theme.
As i don’t need the paid version, i suppose we can convert actual mobile theme, upload it in the correct folder of amp for wp theme and use it. But apparently it needs some changes because it’s not recognized.
They have a page about how to make a custom theme for amp for wp so i know it’s possible :

Can you help please ?

Question is simple : how to use newspaper mobile theme with “amp for wp” plugin ?
Only the paid version of this plugin brings YOUR theme available Please see by yourself : https://ampforwp.com/themes/).
But with the free version, it’s possible to create custom templates.
So… what do we need to update in mobile theme code in order to be recognized by “amp for wp” as a template ?
I tried to put the mobile theme folder in /wp-content/plugins/accelerated-mobile-pages/templates/design-manager but it’s note recognized
Hello!
You don’t need to buy an amp. You can use Mobile theme + AMP. You can not mix the mobile version.
We have 3 options for mobile versions that you can use:
1. Responsive version: A responsive version of your website looks similar to the desktop version. TagDiv Composer is used to edit the page.Click on the mobile viewport: https://www.screencast.com/t/XDQJedlggSB. There, you can see your mobile version and edit or adjust the elements to look better.
2. Mobile pages: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages
3. Mobile theme plugin: The Mobile Theme is a performance-optimized theme included in the main Newspaper theme that only loads on mobile devices. It comes with its own templates and designs for pages, posts, categories, etc., so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout. Please see https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ and https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/ for more information.

If you need to use the mobile version 1 or 2, then you need to disable the Mobile Theme plugin.
Thank you!
