That’s great news.
The author box is this one in the sidebar -> https://prnt.sc/POyP8l685K_d Are you referring to the position of the author box? Everything can be moved if you edit the post template with the composer.
Maybe I am misunderstanding, could you please explain the issue more?
Hi Team,

Thanks.

Hello, I am trying to get author credit, time since posting and views lined up in a row but there seems to be padding under the views that makes it impossible to get everything in a tidy line. Can you advise?

Hi, can someone please guide how to create a FAQ drop-down box that can be connected to Yoast Schema at the end of the article? The authors can simply put those in while putting in the article on WP.
Also, any way to create a summary or quick answer box at the beginning of the article on the article page in a newspaper? I tried finding a function in TD Composer, but could not find it.
If not, then any third-party plugins you recommend.
These things have become increasingly important.
thanks in advance.
Hi,
All the settings for the mobile theme are in the theme panel https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
As a note, if you are also using the standard pack plugin -> https://prnt.sc/Yq-hXISRw-SG disabling the author box has to be done from here -> https://prnt.sc/m3IqycawMV9k Please try it.
For the related articles the settings are also in the theme panel, here -> https://prnt.sc/d9yYol65tiuq The settings are for choosing what relation to use, either category or tag, and how many posts to display.
Thank you!
Hello,
I ve just installed the Mobile Theme plugin, and I m trying to customise the open article page and I can t seem to find out how.
I would like to eliminate the author box from under the article. Is that possible? How? Or at least have another box that displays something else, not information about the author? Like social media counters? A newsletter form? Trending articles?
Can I change the number of the related articles displayed after the text of the article? Can I use a filter for what is displayed as a „related article”? Like a category, a tag, popularity?
My site is http://www.r3media.ro. Thank you!
Selected Filter > More From Author,
In the Multi Author box I placed the author ID number
In tagdiv composer it brought up the two articles that author has provided.
Save.
View Page.
it’s blank, no articles.
Not sure why.
Hi, I am using tagdiv author box, I want to show only 25 words from author bio and then it should show read more, so that people can click “read more” button to read full author bio. Is this possible?
Hi,
Wordpress and the theme do not have this functionality, but it can be achieved using a plugin.
Plugins for Guest Authors (no WP user needed)
Co‑Authors Plus – Classic choice; supports multiple authors per post.
PublishPress Authors – Easy profiles, author boxes, and archives.
Simple Author Box – Lightweight author box + custom guest info.
WP Author Box Lite – Profile box with social links.
Guest Author Name and URL – Very simple guest name/URL override.
Using ACF (Advanced Custom Fields)
Instead of a plugin, you can: Create custom fields for guest author details:
Name
Bio
Photo
Website / Social links
Then edit the single post template with tagDiv Composer and add teh custom field element, in it select teh acf filed to display the author info on the post.
Hello tagDiv Support,
I need help with a serious issue that started after updating Newspaper. I have spent hours troubleshooting this and I want to give you a clear, detailed summary so you can understand exactly what is happening.
My site:
MarryCaribbean.com
Theme:
Newspaper
Problem summary:
After the update, my single post pages began crashing and showing the WordPress critical error message. At the same time, several layout behaviors changed unexpectedly, including my post hero styling and category/archive display.
Here is what I observed and tested.
1. Single posts started failing after the Newspaper update
Before the update, my single posts were working normally.
After the update:
* Single post pages began showing “There has been a critical error on this website.”
* This was happening under Newspaper, while the site worked under a default WordPress theme.
* Category pages and other parts of the site were not failing in the same way at first, which made this look specific to the Newspaper single post rendering path.
2. Debugging pointed to td-composer
I enabled WordPress debug logging and found fatal errors pointing to td-composer, specifically memory exhaustion in this path:
/wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/common/wp_booster/td_util.php
I also saw repeated notices for translation loading from other plugins, but those did not appear to be the main cause of the front-end post failure.
The key fatal I saw was memory exhaustion inside td-composer.
3. Default WordPress theme worked
To isolate the issue, I temporarily switched to a default WordPress theme.
Result:
* The single posts loaded
* The content itself was fine
* This suggested the problem was not with WordPress core or the post content itself, but with Newspaper/tagDiv rendering
4. Backup restore did not solve the issue
I restored a backup using UpdraftPlus, including:
Database
Plugins
Themes
However, this did not restore the previous Newspaper behavior on its own. The single post issue remained. What actually made individual posts load again was manually opening them and explicitly selecting a post template such as FROM PANEL or DEFAULT and then updating the post.
5. tagDiv Composer / Cloud Library behavior was inconsistent
After the restore:
* tagDiv Composer and tagDiv Cloud Library had to be reactivated
* Header/footer/custom appearance behavior changed depending on whether these plugins were active
* At one stage, single posts worked with Composer off, but the custom header/footer/design was degraded
* With Composer on, other design pieces came back, but single post behavior was still unstable or altered
6. The biggest discovery: post template behavior changed
This appears to be the most important clue.
I found that many posts would work again only after I manually opened the post and explicitly selected a post template, for example:
* FROM PANEL
or
* DEFAULT
If I manually selected one of those and updated the post, the post would usually load again.
This strongly suggests the update changed or broke how post template settings were being inherited or interpreted.
What is especially concerning is that this appears to affect many posts, not just one or two.
7. “From Panel” is not consistently broken, but behavior changed
I originally thought FROM PANEL itself was broken, but after more testing I found:
* Some posts work on FROM PANEL
* Some posts work on DEFAULT
* Some posts needed to be manually touched and saved before they would work at all
So the issue does not seem to be as simple as “FROM PANEL is broken.”
It feels more like the update disrupted how template/layout assignments are being inherited or loaded on a per-post basis.
8. My hero/header layout on single posts changed
Even after I got the posts loading again, the visual layout is not what it was before.
Before:
* My post hero had a stronger designed look
* The title, author, tags, and hero image styling appeared more integrated/overlaid
* There was more of a styled hero presentation
Now:
* The posts may load, but the hero/header presentation is simplified or degraded
* The featured image sits more plainly
* The old styled hero treatment appears to be missing
So even when the post works, the layout is not the same as before the update.
9. Article Display View options appear to be missing
In the Theme Panel, under areas where I remember having many layout/style choices, the “Article Display View” area appears blank or missing its usual options.
I specifically remember having many appearance/layout choices there before. Now those options do not appear to load properly.
This makes me think some template/module UI in Newspaper is no longer loading correctly after the update.
10. Category/archive behavior also changed
After the update:
* My category/archive sections changed layout
* I had 3 items per row before, but now it is showing 2
* I also started seeing little comment count boxes with “0”, which I never wanted and did not have before
I checked Block Settings and global module meta settings. Show Comment Count appears to be off globally, but the archive/category output is still not matching what I had before.
This makes it seem like the archive/module style or template behavior changed during the update as well.
11. Cloud Templates screen appears empty
In Cloud Templates, I currently do not see cloud templates assigned in the way I expected. For example, the Single Templates area appears empty.
That is confusing because I know my site had a more customized appearance before, and the current theme behavior no longer matches it.
12. Main concern
My biggest concern is that this update appears to have:
* broken or altered post template inheritance
* changed single post rendering behavior
* removed or failed to load layout options I previously had
* changed archive/category display unexpectedly
On a larger site, this kind of behavior is extremely disruptive because it can force manual repair of many posts.
What I need from you:
1. Help identifying exactly what changed in Newspaper that caused single post template behavior to break or stop inheriting correctly
2. Help restoring the original post hero/layout behavior I had before the update
3. Help restoring the archive/category display so it matches the previous layout
4. Help understanding why the Article Display View choices appear missing/blank
5. Guidance on whether this is a known issue in the current version and whether there is a patch or recommended fix
I would appreciate a serious look at this, because this has taken a lot of time to troubleshoot and it clearly appears connected to the Newspaper/tagDiv update path rather than WordPress itself.
Thank you,

Hi, Is there an option to move the Author Box right below the title or just above the Blog text?
Is there a way to display the author’s local avatar in a high-density version (retina)? I use Simple Local Avatars to select the local avatar for an author. Editing the Author Photo size in the Single Post Author Box in the Single Post template has no effect on the size or density of the image.
Example post:
https://avbrief.com/evolution-of-a-duct/
The image exists in an 800×800 size, as seen here:

Hi,
If teh checkbox is unchecked, then the delete option will be displayed only for administrators (users with admin rol) – https://i.imgur.com/kKIhxbs.png – https://i.imgur.com/zaztRxh.png for the rest of authors will display only the view option – https://i.imgur.com/niAs6Fr.png
Dear team,
Something strange I can’t explain. Check this article: https://www.captainforest.com/the-political-barriers-to-addressing-desertificationissues/
If you see the author box (second box, 4 th or 5th row), you see the name and below the name there is a strange sign (looks like chinese writing) … do you know what it is? And how to remove it?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
The free version, as I know, the image for the author will be displayed only in the author box, but I think this can be done with the pro version – https://www.molongui.com/help/molongui-authorship-available-shortcodes/
Thank you!
Hi,
I understand what you want to achieve, unfortunately, there is no such option.
Maybe what you can try would be a JavaScript code that checks if it is the right author on the author box and if not, to set a display none for the Author Box.
Thank you!
Hello,
I am requesting assistance with a custom single post template configuration in the TagDiv Composer: https://forcenews.pl
Goal: We need the “Single Post Author Box” element (the author bio section at the end of the article) to be displayed only for posts published by one specific, designated user account on our website.
Current Situation:
The “Single Post Author Box” element is globally disabled in our standard Single Post Template.
We want it to remain hidden for all standard editorial articles.
Question/Problem:
We need to add the “Single Post Author Box” block to the existing single post template in TagDiv Composer, but it must appear conditionally.
Is there a built-in “Display Condition” feature within the TagDiv Composer for a single element (block) that allows us to set a rule based on the Post Author (e.g., specifying the Author’s ID or Username) to make the block visible?
Is there a solution that does not require duplicating the entire post template? Please advise on the best implementation path.
Thank you for your prompt assistance!
Hi,
What I can recommend is to use the element “Author box” and set the ID of each author you want to display. This element will display the author description and a few more details.
Thank you!
I want to create an editorial team page.
Is it possible to customize the authors box to add a bio?
Thank you.
Hi,
For me, the author box is now displaying correctly, but it appears on some articles or when you move from article to the next one – https://i.imgur.com/b2g6mru.png, but a plugin for authors may have been installed that can add another author box to the single post template. I will recommend using only the author from the theme, and if you have an option from another plugin for the author box, disable it.
Thank you!
Examples:
See the author box please

The problem disappear in the front end but another problem appear with the author box become double and unstyled
Hi there,
I’m currently using your theme with the Infinite Loading option enabled for articles. It works technically, but I’ve noticed that the next article only loads when the user reaches the very bottom of the page, just below the footer.
From a UX and engagement perspective, this is a bit problematic:
Most users don’t scroll that far — especially when there are additional elements after the article (author box, related posts, comments, etc.). As a result, the infinite loading rarely triggers, and the feature is almost never used.
What I would like instead is for the next article to load as soon as the current article ends, or at least before the footer becomes visible — basically, when the user finishes reading, not when they’re done scrolling everything.
My questions:
Is there any built-in way to adjust the scroll trigger threshold for the infinite loading feature?
If not, is there a way to disable the built-in AE infinite loading and instead add a custom script to trigger the next article loading earlier (for example, when a specific element like .post-content ends)?
Could you point me in the right direction on how to do that safely within your theme structure?
I’d be happy to integrate a small custom JavaScript snippet below the article if needed, but I’d love to have your advice on the cleanest and safest approach.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Best regards,
Arthur
I want to change echo $this->get_author(); to echo do_shortcode(‘[co_author_boxes]’); for all elements. If I can do this in another way – please let me know.
Thank you!
