Hello,
I have BP activated, which is main feature of the site. On posts I have author icon/author box which leads to WP author page – how to link this post author icon/box to BuddyPress profile ?

P.S. I saw many requests here and in theme comments about Front end Articles posting with BuddyPress. The plugin BP Social Articles is perfect for that, despite it is not updated since 2 years. Many BP themes continue advising it to extend BP(ex: KLEO theme). In your theme it works well, but has some styling issues, I may send screenshots if you wish to check the plugin.

Hi,
The description was not meant to be displayed on the author box itself, but only when a user is clicked. This is the default behavior of the theme, and if you click on the author, the description is there.
That was a customization you made based on my first reply on the top of this topic. That class was added custom, so maybe you replaced the file when you updated the theme and your customization is gone. You have to do it again.
Thank you!

Hi,
I assume you want to show a page with content from contributors. In this case you can create a new page and add visual composer elements to it in order to create the layout and then filter the results from block settings based on the post author: http://screencast.com/t/L71ogANpz For this filter you will need the user ID you can get from here: http://screencast.com/t/NOooGdXZuHy
As for the image lightbox, this will work for your images if theyu are set to link to the media file. If you add another link to the image, the lightbox will no be able to display the post. Featured images work by default as they are set o link to the media file.
Thank you!

Hi there,

First of all, please accept my apologies all of these.

Please allow me to ask a few things about customization of the new Newspaper version 7.0.

1. Since I am doing some customization on my site and based on what I had read on the documentation and on your rules that any update of the Theme we should try again to re-implement the code for our customization, so I decided instead of doing that again and again is to add the Child Theme, that any update of the Theme still the customization of site will be there right? Please advise if this the best option? Hope it will.

2. (If Serial 1 is not the best option, leave this.) Please advise if this is correct to Add a Child Theme via FTP I will just add the Folder “Newspaper-child” located in /code folder? base on this Tutorial Link to add it under “wp-content/themes” right? by just dragging it via FTP? same on this Image Link.

3. Author Box Card replace it with USERPRO shortcode.
Filename:
/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/loop-single-12.php – this is my style number

ShortCode to add:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[userpro template=card user=author]');?>

Original String Structure:

<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_social_sharing_bottom();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_next_prev_posts();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_author_box();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_item_scope_meta();?>
</footer>

Modified String Structure: Please advise if this is correct syntax code?

<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_next_prev_posts();?>
<?php echo do_shortcode('[userpro template=card user=author]');?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_item_scope_meta();?>
</footer>

3.a. If I am using a Child Theme I just copy the Filename then create a directory structure path in the child theme as in the theme and paste the Filename based on this Tutorial Link aight?

4. Sign In/Join Desktop view popup version using USERPRO shortcode

8. Mobile Theme Plugin – if I install this plugin would the Child Theme modification will reflect to this? I mean I made changes in Serial 3, 5 and 6 will it reflect also? Please advise.

8.a. Whats the difference between Theme Panel background color for mobile vs Mobile Theme Plugin Settings background color? Which one should I make the changes if this Plugin is installed?

>For Serial 5 filename
>header.php

I have sent my Login Credentials via mail incase you may need it with the same Subject here.

Please try to disable all plugins except visual compoer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Thank you!

Hi Catalin,

I manage now to update my site to 7.0 without having a problem and I am proud to share it to the community.

Please help me to implement back the following:
1. Please advise if this is correct for Facebook comments and USERPRO Author Box – I manage to set this properly on the previous version 6.7.2 I am using loop-single-12.php style
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_social_sharing_bottom();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_next_prev_posts();?>

- - - This is what I inserted a shortcode to show a USERPRO Author Box Card - - -
<?php echo do_shortcode('[userpro template=card user=author]');?>

<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_item_scope_meta();?>
</footer>

- - - This is what I inserted a code to show Facebook Comment - - -
<div class="fb-comments" data-href="<?php echo get_permalink($td_mod_single->post->ID); ?>" data-width="100%" data-numposts="5"></div>

<?php echo $td_mod_single->related_posts();?>

For Facebook comment – I place a code in header.php
<body <?php body_class() ?> itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="<?php echo td_global::$http_or_https?>://schema.org/WebPage">

<div id=”fb-root”></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = “//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.5&appId=XXXXXX”;
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, ‘script’, ‘facebook-jssdk’));</script>

<?php /* scroll to top */?>

2. http://prnt.sc/b2jo8d – I want to know the exact gradient color of that in the screenshot.

Hello Guys,

we updated to Newspaper 7 and got an issue (maybe bug) regarding Visual Composer and the Author Box . We excluded severals ID’s to only show up some Authors, which was fine in V6.7.2. After the update to Newspaper 7 all settings will simply ignored, so that all Authors will show up. :-/

All Plugins (including Visual Composer) are up 2 date and all caches and Caching Plugins were cleared.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Cheers,
Chris

I didn’t, I disabled author listing on all the modules we’re using because we’re low on time/budget for the project.

I am going to try out your author box solution, though, thanks!

2. Facebook comment is gone now.

3. Author Box came back to its default after the update.

Do I have to do the changes again after any update of the Theme?

How to disable all comments and author box from posts.

Bogdan B.
tagDiv Staff

Hi,

1) In order to add the code besides the author name in the bottom author box, then you need to add it to this file: http://screencast.com/t/ccOh7k2G

2) In order to implement facebook comments, you have to disable the theme comments and then place the facebook comments shortcode in the template files here: http://screencast.com/t/oTnWURqrAb3

You have to do this for every post style you use on your site. every post style has it;s own file.

3) You can use this css to activate the top menu on the mobile version.

@media (max-width: 767px){
.top-bar-style-1 .td-header-sp-top-menu {
display: block!important;
}
.td-header-top-menu-full {
display: block!important;}
.td-header-sp-top-widget{
display:none!important;
}}

Thank you!

Hi,
You can replace the theme author box with the plugin shortcode in the post template files. There is a file corresponding to each post style you use on your site: http://screencast.com/t/s2PE1hVPxs
<?php echo do_shortcode('[userpro template=card user=author]');?>
Thank you!

Hello,
Unfortunately the theme has no such option so it will have to be either hard-coded or controlled by a plugin. I cannot recommend any such plugins as we have not tested any of the sort, but you can follow this topic to see how it can be done from the theme files:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/cpt-author-boxshow-author-name/
Thank you!

Hi there,

I am using a USERPRO plugin now and I manage to do some changes on Sign In/Join.

Now my concern is the Author Box with this Theme Default code:

<div class=”author-box-wrap”>

</div>

This is the code I want to put inside that Author Box:

[userpro template=card user=author]

This is the format I want to achieve: http://prnt.sc/b0cphd

Please advise where we can replace it with USERPRO shortcode and the correct syntax.

Best Regards

Thats great. 🙂

All we need now is getting it implemented in the modules. Did you have any luck with that?

I have used this for getting the author boxes for each author in place:

Hello bikingculture,

I suppose that you want to display the Ad for each your author name for every one author page. To do that, you have to add some conditions in author.php core file in order to achieve as you wish. As a hint, you have to use the_author_meta('ID') function and do_shortcode(). For more references about the_author_meta(), please check the codex documentation here -> https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_author_meta. Also, you have to add your ad for each author name (ID), you have to have to introduce the following code
<?php echo do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]');?> and also, you have to use if/else condition for better results. -> http://screencast.com/t/bSbxuuaM
Please notice that this is not a simple task and require custom work. If you are not aware of the steps which you needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, sorry!

Thank you for your understanding!

Hello.

How can I get different AdSense ads displayed based on different author display names. Basically, each author would have his/her specific AdSense ads displayed in every ad location on his/her posts.

The Ad boxes don’t appear to render PHP. Shortcodes or changing code somewhere?

Thank you,
Joe

Hi there, about the Author Box below the post:

I want the Author URL not under the Author name – instead the Author Name should be also the URL of the Author (if I gave a URL to the Author).

The Problem – now it is so:

Author Name
http://www.author-url.com

And I want it so:

Author Name

What do I need to change?

Hi! I must say I really love this theme, it is almost out-of-the-box ready for our purposes, but I hope you can answer the following questions related to the changes we see necessary:

1. For the post templates, we would really love to have the default style with the text BELOW the top picture instead of above. Is this possible? I find it strange that this is not one of the pre-defined templates.

2. Our top menu consists of 3 elements. Is it possible to highlight ONE of the 3 menu elements with another background color? Example: http://www.screencast.com/t/W6jQvE3el

3. Under “Post Settings” I can turn off showing author and date for all posts. This affects both the frontpage and sidebar (preview of posts) AND the post page itself. I would like to turn off/disable this for the frontpage and sidebar, but still show author + date at the very top of all posts when on the post page. Is this possible?

4. For “Block 13”, can I also show the introduction and just not the title underneath the picture?

5. Is it possible to modify/create a block (similar to Block 13 or 20) to show the full picture, then title, then introduction? Example: http://www.screencast.com/t/y0s4F7irXIKh

6. At the bottom of every post, underneath the Social Sharing buttons, there are two “menus” (related articles + more from author) above 3 post previews. I would like to only have one menu (delete more from author), is this possible? Explanation: http://www.screencast.com/t/15j0LrFz

7. I have created a new page but I can’t figure out how to make the right hand side of the page “sticky”, so that when scrolling down on the page the content on the right hand side will always be on top.

Hello expatpost,

You have to use the Author Box element from Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/nmjtv8kmUB Please notice that our theme does not have any additional options for author’s page but only this option from Visual Composer. If you want to have more options in this regard, you need to find some plugins with this functionality and see how it work for you. Also, if you ant to display more levels in our theme and you are not aware of the steps you need to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, sorry!

Thank you for the message!

Hello loano1,

In newspaper demo is using only the Visual Composer element for Author, as the example the Author Box feature. If you want to have the link for each post, you have to simply add the author for your post and then, when the post is shown on blocks/modules and click on the name of the author will be direct to the page of the author that are by default set it from WordPress -> http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/author/admin/ -> http://screencast.com/t/t0nffZheh9k5 . If you want to have more options for the author page, you will have to search some plugins with this functionality and see how it works for you.

Hope this helps!

If is not what you mean, please provide more details about what you want to achieve so I will be able to provide a more accurate response.

Thanks.
