I would likely explore the built-in mega menu options already in theme (see the DEMO of the theme on Themeforest for examples) before trying the others.
Hi Christopher,
Actually, I’m not using any Caching plugins nor any CDNs… And if you want any examples, I have provided my website where you can see just that. I might also point out that I’m having a 4th issue that is very much related to issue (2).
4) My “Next Prev Ajax” also does not work for any of my blocks.
I think that my whole “Pagination” system is broken for me.
links to examples might be helpful ?
I have no issue with slider set to 12 items as long as I have 12 items set as featured.
Infinite scroll also partially dependent on the web browser, and caching of the browser seeing the page, speed of system to query the dbase, size of images/thumbs being served, etc.
Item 3 not clear what you mean? If you see an image on your page when previewing it, the image would be visible for site visitors viewing post also. You may have a caching problem, if using cache, which is showing image in one view, but not another. Might not apply, but hard to tell without an example 🙂
Might not be the cause, but be sure to use the current HTML entity for the copyright symbol, and not simply pasting in the ASCII character.
© should work, or I think & # 169; (without the spaces) may still work also.

I am still in the process of implementing the theme on my site. On my test site, I am getting a bug where the  character appears before the copyright symbol in the caption of an image only in the lightbox, not in the main post.
Here’s a link to an example. The caption of the image is normal. Then, when you click on it to view the lightbox, that weird symbol shows up in front of the copyright symbol. Please let me know of a fix. Thanks!
And it’s good they are warning people, since any theme from prior to January, likely has the bad version (e.g., Newspaper 3.9.2 has the hackable version!). Also some themes on Themeforest and Envato (et al) have NOT been updated since January, and may be semi abandonware but are still being sold, with the bad version RIGHT NOW. So, they needed to do something about that issue, as people were buying themes and having their site(s) hacked pretty quick (another reason to use some form of comment removal to hide the versions of apps from your site header file!).
In fact, I know two themes got booted from my “purchase” line up of themes, which had not been updated in a long time, this month.
I tweeted about this, too and they tweeted back to clarify which versions were vulnerable. So, Themepunch has been on this pretty seriously. Similarly YOAST hired a security firm to audit their plugins, also. I think this may become a trend.
There are actually websites now which list all the current vulnerabilities in WordPress and plugins, which is very nice. I don’t check it all the time, but I do once in awhile out of curiosity.
eg
http://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-2337/product_id-4096/Wordpress-Wordpress.html
Or, subscribe to the SECURI Blog which usually catches stuff like the big flaw in ALL IN ONE SEO back in May.
http://blog.sucuri.net/category/wordpress
XMLRPC is often an issue which is why I do things to disable it.
But security is a whole different discussion. 🙂
Ooops. Sorry. For some reasons, Envato marketplace is still showing the issue on my profile page 🙁
This was covered here on the forum recently. I actually spoke to the folks who make Revolution Slider, and the product was patched 29 versions ago. Meaning, RS 4.12 technically. All versions after that were patched.
So, if you have the current theme update 4.2 or later which includes RS Version 4.3.8 SkyWood (27th April 2014), you don’t need to worry about it. Good reason to keep your theme updated, or download the latest plugins which are bundled with each theme update.
SEE:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/hacking-issues-with-rev-slider/
That post is 8 days ago. Since then the issue has been brought to tagDiv’s attention and the plugin is the updated, secure version in the latest theme update.
Child themes are indeed handy. Christopher recently said he doesn’t use them because of the pagespeed slowdown in CSS importing, if I understood him right, which is valid but it does prevent things like this. If you’re a heavy modifier of files, each update will be painful…
Child themes basically make WP use the version of the file in the child theme rather than the parent theme’s, if one exists. Hence your changes would survive updates.
Also, not all of those files can be modified in a child theme (I believe td_wordpress_booster.php can’t, for example). For those ones, you would have to copy the function in question into your child theme’s functions.php, make your changes, and rename the function. Then either change all references to the function in other files, or it’s a hooked action or filter, unhook the parent functions and hook yours in. (There are a few tutorials out there for this.)
Even if you use a child theme, you would want to watch for updates that affect functions and styles you’ve changed and do your changes over again, but it’s not as big a deal.
A block 10 is also included in the latest update, so you’d want to rename your custom one to avoid it being overwritten.
I ‘d like to remove wrap for Post Title wrap from Slide and Slide (or change the max characters per line)
Also as i noticed to Slide box that Catecory and Date is not aligned.
Also i ‘d like to change the background colour of date.

Thanks in advance!
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to access the servers of all sites using early versions of these plugins. We expect numerous websites to potentially be at risk and are moving to help buyers secure their sites immediately.

tagDiv?
This new release is more buggy than a cockroach infested motel.
(1) The YouTube Playlist doesn’t format ANYTHING like what appears on the little tab.
(2) There’s no way to add a new “row” and format it like you want and have it show up like it’s supposed too (for example—top part of the website— i wan the regular slider and small article box like model 1). And then have the row beneath it be 3 columns.
(3) The unique article feature is broken (and it’s really, really, really annoying me)
(4) And this feature has been requested and as someone who works in media publishing—I like having the by line BENEATH the date like very other news site out there and it’s never been added. I have to “manually do it” and it’s time consuming.
I’m already looking for another theme.
I want each picture in my site (in each box, post etc) to have a border around for example 1px.
I’m wondering if there is any helpful ccs code.
BR,
S.
I’ve committed a serious mistake here.
I was adding a code in my functions.php, for the first few times I added the code correctly. But don’t what happened last time that now I’ve lost access to my site http://www.clearawayacne.com/wp-admin/theme-editor.php?file=functions.php&theme=Newspaper&scrollto=16621&updated=true
Please help me with all this. I’m VERY depressed!
Hi,
1. To place your ads in the sidebar you will need first to create a new sidebar in which you can add your sidebar ad or add the sidebar add into an existing sidebar, like this: http://screencast.com/t/nM5tELrP
Here is how you create a new sidebar: http://screencast.com/t/eATlwEHGE0C
Here you will have to ad the code for the sidebar ad: http://screencast.com/t/MO7gdQiOv
After this edit the page you want to have the sidebar ad on to and set the sidebar like this: http://screencast.com/t/hQGcO8BIf
If you want another sidebar on the left besides the one on the right, you can add it like this: http://screencast.com/t/woCxVdjX
This could help: https://forum.tagdiv.com/ads/
2. Check this topic and guide:
* https://forum.tagdiv.com/pagespeed-guide/
* https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/pagespeed/
Also search the forum for tips and suggestions regarding speed there are many topics covering different issues and difficulties you may encounter.
3. Then only featured image effect we have is using post style: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/newspaper-v-4-0-topic/
You could try to use a plugin for this.
Hope this helps!
Thanks
Hi,
You could do this by adding the code on the template of the page you want to have this code, for example if I understood well you want this on post pages and enable this only if the post belongs to a certain category and use a plugin like Advanced Custom Fields to chose when editing the post if to show that widget or not for that post so regarding the category that post belongs you can chose if that widget to be displayed or not.
Here is how you can do it, follow this topic: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/function-to-hide-ads-and-function-to-show-author/#post-8993
If you don’t have basic php/html/css knowledge we recommend you hire a freelancer from sites like: http://studio.envato.com/ if you don’t know how to do it yourself.
Unfortunately we cannot offer custom work as we work hard on the development, updates, fixes and support.

And a final note, but this is just because I’m a little obsessive:
If you’re going to have a lot of these tabs, you could automate the adding of each field. You would replace from // Simplest possible example of getting ACF data, sub in yours to // (You could wrap each block in an if to skip a tab if the data is empty) with the following code:
// Update this list using the same format for all the field names you want
$field_names = ['2g_network', '3g_network'];
// Loop through the fields
foreach ($field_names as $field_name) {
$data = get_field_object($field_name);
// Set up tab
$to_echo .= '[vc_tab title=" . $data["label"] . " tab_id=" . $field_name . "]';
// Check if we have a value
if ($data['value'] {
$to_echo .= $data["value"];
// Default message if no value entered for the field
} else {
$to_echo .= 'No information on record.';
}
// Close the tab
$to_echo .= '[/vc_tab]';
}
Then whenever you want to change a field, you would just change the $field_names list and it would be much simpler. For example, if you had a field named ‘4g_network’, it becomes $field_names = ['2g_network', '3g_network', '4g_network'];
Hope that helps :p
That’s about it. Of course there are situations when an upgraded plugin requires some changes to the theme that may delay the upgrade of that plugin even there are theme updates available. For example, VC recently updated from v2.x to v3.x and we got three or four theme updates before they upgraded the VC plugin, because of the changes in the theme required.
So yes, as far as bundled plugins, go with tagDiv’s updates and rest assured they’ll keep all features within Newspaper copacetic.

I am trying to place a certain code below posts where the Related Articles are. I want to have this code display on only a few categories. Is this possible? For example, I want to have a widget/code below the ‘Funny’ category, but I don’t want it on the ‘Videos’ category. Is this possible to prevent that? Thanks in advance!
Yes, just checked your file and the problem is in the context — you forgot to wrap the new code in a <?php> tag. Hence it’s being treated as HTML. Your whole file should look like this:
<?php
/**
* The single post loop for post template 1
**/
if (have_posts()) {
the_post();
$td_mod_single = new td_module_1($post);
//show the breadcrumb
if (get_post_type($post) == 'post') {
echo td_page_generator::get_single_breadcrumbs($td_mod_single->title);
} else {
echo td_page_generator::get_page_breadcrumbs($td_mod_single->title);
}
?>
<article id="post-<?php echo $td_mod_single->post->ID;?>" class="<?php echo join(' ', get_post_class());?>" <?php echo $td_mod_single->get_item_scope();?>>

<?php } ?>
<?php
// override the default featured image by the templates (single.php and home.php/index.php - blog loop)
if (!empty(td_global::$load_featured_img_from_template)) {
echo $td_mod_single->get_image(td_global::$load_featured_img_from_template);
} else {
echo $td_mod_single->get_image('art-big-1col');
}
?>
<div class="td-post-text-content">
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_content();?>
<?php
// Set up your row, column, and tabs element
$to_echo = '[vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][vc_tabs]';
// Simplest possible example of getting ACF data, sub in yours
$data_1 = get_field('2g_network');
$data_2 = get_field('3g_network');
// Repeat these lines for each tab, making sure each tab has a unique id
$to_echo .= '[vc_tab title="The first tab" tab_id="tab_1"]';
$to_echo .= $data_1;
$to_echo .= '[/vc_tab]';
$to_echo .= '[vc_tab title="The second tab" tab_id="tab_2"]';
$to_echo .= $data_2;
$to_echo .= '[/vc_tab]';
// (You could wrap each block in an if to skip a tab if the data is empty)
// When you have all your tabs, close the elements
$to_echo .= '[/vc_tabs][/vc_column][/vc_row]';
// We have to filter the whole string to make WP interpret the shortcodes
$to_echo = wpb_js_remove_wpautop($to_echo);
// Do whatever
echo $to_echo;
?>
</div>
<div class="clearfix"></div>

When editing the homepage,
in the last articles I’ve set a custom sidebar to the existing ones.
For example, I chose the HOME.
This, however, did not appear in the homepage.
the custom sidebar does not appear on the homepage under latest articles
Tahnks Lucian,
Tried but as you can see the ad is getting trimmed/cropped. The same issue that happens when ad goes in header area next to logo. How can I fix this as cropping Ads is not a good idea. Check the screenshot below:
