But the theme crops the image this way because it’s coded to do so, correct?
So if I had custom development done on the theme to remove or change that code, this could be a solution as well, correct?
Everytime I try using a cloud template for anything the CSS always comes in broken.
Also, how do I get rid of latest articles like at the bottom of my homepage http://www.vettoc.com so that I can use a different module to load better thumbnail sizes?
Keep in mind, I’m using the Bakery page/post editor not themediv editor. Is this an issue?
When I downloaded the newspaper theme, I was also provided the wpbakery page builder. When I installed this page builder, it is asking for a product license. How do I activate it?
Hi,
Please make sure that you do not have a plugin conflict, please deactivate all non theme plugins, also if you are using child theme or cache plugin, please deactivate them, clear all cache and try again.
Also please try to use the child from the package, ( child theme from v9.6.1)

Thumbnails – Fix strange looking images on blocks -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/
If the problem is still there, please delete( delete the theme plugins too, do not override ) the current version of Newspaper that you have and download again from themefores the newspaper and reinstall it.
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks.
Hi,
I remember seeing this happen for some users, when they activated the WPBakery plugin. While others have WPBakery active and AMP is valid. Maybe it is happening in specific cases only.
I believe this is added on our testing list, to try and identify the problem.
Could be something between the AMP and WPBakery plugin however, the code that might be causing it is in the plugin – http://prntscr.com/nrdbjp
Thanks
Hi,
The WPBakery Page Builder plugin is and Bundled Plugin in our theme not a standalone plugin, please check the envato documentation for those plugins
https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/213762463-Bundled-Plugins
In order to get the last version you need to go on themeforest, login with your credentials and download the last version of theme with documentation and all files, in this way you get the last version of WPBakery plugin that we provide.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
we are running our site (www.florida.nu) on Newspaper, the site was set up for us, using a child theme (v7.2c). I updated the newspaper theme to 9.6.1.(we rolled back from the recent update because we are working with WP bakery page builder and this is not compatible with tagdiv composer), but the child theme still remains on v 7.2c.
The mobile version of the site is not working properly any more. The menu does not work (nothing happens when you click on it) and the pictures are not shown, neither in the grids nor on the posts.
Another issue we have been having is that when creating a link in facebook, facebook does not show our images on that link anymore. I ran a check and the Warnings that came up were:
” Inferred Property The ‘go:image’ property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.”
and
“Missing properties The following required properties are missing: g:url, go:type, go:image, go:description, fb:app_id”
Maybe this issue is related?
I have disabled all plugins, using the health check & troubleshoot plugin, this did not change anything for either issue.
What else can I do? And what is the advantage of running a child theme? May this be the problem? Can I switch to the normal theme without problems?
Thanks,
IT LOOK AS WP BAKERY DO NOT WORK WITH THE AMP PLUGIN
I use Newspaper theme version 9.7.2.
The theme has installed some plugins from TagDiv such as: 1. “tagDiv Composer”, 2.”tagDiv Mobile Theme”, 3. “tagDiv Speed Booster”, 4. “WPBakery Page Builder”. The last one I think is the one that create that strange sytle, so I deactivated it.
Consider that Google says it will take several days to check. So if you think this could be the problem I can ask google to validate.
Here you can find exact Google error:

Please give me any advice. I have 5 website with this error!
I have now fixed the problem.
It seems that one cache plugin (Autooptimize) was conflicting. So I’ve deleted that.
I’ve deleted and reinstalled WP Supe Cache too.
I also had to uninstall Google Chrome and reinstall it as it wasn’t loading the most recent version of the site despite me clearing my browser.
I would still like the updated version WPBakery Page Builder – thanks.
Thanks
To make sure I have the right information, please can you send me the most recent updates (zip folders) for the following plugins:
WPBakery Page Builder
Revolution Slider
Thanks,
Georgia
Hey there,
I am using the latest version of the Newspaper with JS Composer (Not TD Composer). I want to reduce the White Spaces between Menu and body. I want to know how I can I remove or reduce white space gap between header and the page? It can be done with TD Composer but I am having problem with JS Composer (WP Bakery). I want to install builtin FULL WIDTH themes but it seems they are compatible with TD Composer only. Please help!

Hi,
Only WPBakery has such options, using single images for example. Our composer doesn’t have effects for images such as the ones you mention, at the moment.

Is it possible to add toggle accordion boxes directly through the tagDiv composer or will we need to add the WP Bakery builder plugin to add this to the pages? How would you recommend we best achieve this without adding weight to the theme please?
Hi,
The mobile version is look like that because you have the mobile theme plugin that provide you a better speed then responsive version of theme, but in order to achieve that speed you’ll need to create a new content for pages because in the most of cases those were made with builders ( tagDiv Composer, WPBakery ) and you need to use only the mobile editor ( you need to set the content for pages in mobile editor and this content will be display on mobile theme)

Hi Calin,
Thank you for your reply. How should I put the content which was built by tagdiv composer or WP Bakery to the mobile editor, beacuse copy/pasting the code doesnt’t work.
All the best,

In case anyone stumbles onto this… There is no way to customize without risking changes being overwritten when TD pushes updates.

Hi,
Most of the theme files were moved into the tagDiv Composer plugin as per the requirements of Envato: https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000472383-WordPress-Theme-Requirements, as we wrote an article on that subject. In the future, if you need to make some changes over those core files, you need to check the files from here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Pu345nqP If you need more assistance in this case, please open a new topic at our support forum from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/forum/newspaper/
Thank you!

So does this mean that you have to edit the core plugin files directly!? I have made changes to the footer and various part of site through child theme template customizations, how are these suppose to be added now without editing the core plugin files?
Example. I have a child theme and have
childtheme/parts/footer/td_footer_template_14.php
I have added an above footer widget area to this file, and now this is gone. How would I re-add this functionality?

We wrote an article on the subject here: https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
Moving forward with such requirements, a child theme will only work with functions.php, and style.css, as there are very few files left in the main theme as Envato, requires all functionality to be added through plugins. From now on, if you want to make some changes over the footer theme templates, you need to edit the code from here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/RqUdpKc8 Also, if you need more assistance in this case, please open a new topic at our support forum from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/forum/newspaper/

That does not help at all. What happens when you update the TD Composer plugin? All of the updates that were done to those would be replaced.
This is NOT going to work for continuous development using the Newspaper theme.
There are ways to incorporate locate_template() within a plugin so that you can still maintain the functionality of overriding core templates.
This is not an inconvenience this is a DEAL BREAKER for utilizing this theme going forward with new clients, the flexibility and customization of this theme just went from 90% down to 0%.

Hi,
The Newspaper theme update brings a change for the customers that use WP Bakery Page Builder with our Theme: when you’ll be updating to the Newspaper 9.7.2 version, you’ll need to activate the tagDiv Composer to keep the Newspaper theme functionality you’ve previously used. Otherwise, you will have basic WordPress functionality, complying with Envato WordPress Requirements – https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000472383-WordPress-Theme-Requirements.
Please note that activating the tagDiv Composer doesn’t mean that you are required to use our custom page builder on your website. You can use the WP Bakery page builder as you did before the update. We recommended you to do not use the tagDiv Composer and WP Bakery page builders on the same page though, because you cannot edit with WP Baker blocks and shortcodes created with tagDiv Composer or vice-versa. Regarding your customizations, if you have made and have affected some of the theme core files when you will make the theme update, all of these files will be overwritten. You need to make a full backup and then, all these customizations should have to be implemented again to the core files.
Thank you!
AvatarMatt Pramschufer May 14, 2019 at 9:19 pm
Catalin,
Your response has nothing to do with the issue I proposed. I did not say anything about WP Bakery.
The theme has no hooks at all to implement customizations on a plugin level, and now the functionality of customizing page/post templates has been removed without introducing a new method to make those customizations.
Your answer of just “hack the core files” is absurd. You can not really believe that your customers are going to think this “cowboy coding” way is going to fly in 2019?
Is there someone on your development team or someone higher up that you could connect me to?
I have built out over 20 media publications using the Newspaper theme, all of which have customizations. If I make changes to the TD Composer plugin and you push out an update, it is only a matter of time before all of those customizations are lost.

Hi,
Sorry for the inconvenience! In your case, if this update will affect your websites, the best solution is to keep the old theme version (9.1) for them. This can be downloaded from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/important-new-update-newspaper-9-7/ Please notice that we try doing our best and where we find a way for this case, we will make an update with this, sorry! At the moment, there is no such thing, sorry!

Please notice that your support period expired -> https://www.screencast.com/t/dwBzwyI27Kp I suggest you extend your support if you still need our help with your website.
I don’t need to be in this forum for ”other things”. You ”weird” guys decided to create your own pagebuilder. You guys decided to keep it functional with WPBakery. You guys decided to nót add every function that WPBakery has to your own pagebuilder so I can remake it and only use 1 pagebuilder, which would be yours. You guys decided to tell me that both pagebuilders are perfectly fine to use together as lons as the same pagebuilder is not being used on a single page. PLUS every freaking update the website breaks. I bough this theme with wpbakery and nót your beta own pagebuilder and use me as a labrat to test it on.
To make my point short, I want help when the theme breaks down because of something which is not my fault or something which you guys added/changed/deleted after I bough this theme (like your own pagebuilder).
Hello,
I cannot use TD Composer. After clicking the button I get a blank screen.
