Hello,
Please use this guide to regenerate your thumbnails and fix the strange looking images: https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/
Let us know if you still have trouble with images.
Thank you!
Well the demo you chose has no background on the titles. It has been removed from the code. A transparent background has been added so there is no standard background to color anymore. This can be removed if you want by deleting this code: http://screencast.com/t/W86zFWpE24y1
Now you will have colored block titles.
Thank you!
Hello Catalin, ok, I will try to be clearer.
The CSS code you gave me to adjust the margins of ads that appear at the bottom of the page, worked perfectly, however this code affect the rest of margins taboola ads. the other ads margins doubled.
This is a screen shot where I show you what I mean: https://www.hitviral.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/double-margin-taboola-hitviral.jpg
As you can see, the ads you pointed in the image have double margin. Apparently the CSS code you gave me, affected all taboola codes.
What I want is that all ads have the right margin. Because right now only those who are at the bottom of the page has a correct margin, but the others were loosened.
I came up the possibility of inserting a text block rather than ad code directly, so that it contains ads and margin automatically without affecting the rest. I do not know if this is possible. But I would like you to help me with that.
I will be attentive to your answer. Thank you very much!
Hello,
Unfortunately the latest articles section cannot be moved. There is no setting to do so. What you can do though is choose a different page template that does not use the latest articles and simply create the page as you want it to . You can use the block settings to create the page to your liking
Thank you!
Hi,
This should probably be an easy one, but just wondering how I can change the color of the Widget and block titles. It is currently coming to default black background with white text. I want to change it with Blue background
When checking Google Pagespeed insights for my site I keep seeing reports that certain images are not optimised. On closer examination it seems that the offending images are being displayed in for Block 18 elemnts in a sidebar. It seems that in that situation, the image is displayed a4 324×179 pixels, but no such thumbnail size exists and the theme is serving images at 695×385 pixels, hence the complaint from Pagespeed Insights. I generated the correct size thumbnail, but the theme doesn’t use it.
Any suggestions?
Hello,
I have a static startpage, which normally includes a BigGrid, Textfield, Block 6 and Block 14.
If I open it now on a mobile device, there is a strange behaivor.
On the top featured posts are shown and at the bottom also the latest articles
Instead of the Big Grid (which is not possible to show on mobile theme as I read), the code of the Big Grid is shown
[td_block_big_grid_1 sort="featured"]
Same is for Block 6 and Block 14 which appears like
[td_block_6 custom_title="lorem ipsum" header_color="#5b5eba" category_id="30" sort="random_posts" limit="6"]
I already tried to disable all other plugins expect the approved ones.
Any idea how to avoid showing this lines?
Is it related to Visual Composer?
Thanks in advance
As an update, I tested just now and about half the pages on my site do the menu bar. It seems mainly the ones where I have it loading a block are not pulling up the menu. There is also a second error I am experiencing. None of my parallax or single color background images are loading using Visual Composer.
I am worried to reinstall I will lose everything. How can I reinstall WordPress and back everything up correctly.
I will e-mail you my login so you can take a look before I go further.
problem solve 🙂
the code is:
<?php locate_template(‘parts/page-category-header.php’, true);?>
<?php
if (is_category (‘Artist’)) {
echo do_shortcode ( ‘ [td_block_11 category_id=”3993″ sort=”alphabetical_order”] ‘ );
}
else {
locate_template (‘loop.php’, true);
}
?>
thank you for your help
Hi Catalin,
Well, I did install another version of the mobile team, but now I’ve got another issue (http://prnt.sc/d1b4zf).
Now it shows the grid and only the first block of the page and the footer. It is also with no style.
It only works when I turn off the mobile theme plugin.
Hi,
Sorry, may be I did not frame my question properly. It is not about the 3rd party plugin but how to insert these type of JS code.
I have already seen the code block that you have shared in the screen shot. The problem is, its clearly says this:
“Please do not include the <script> </script>.”
This should work fine for normal code like
<script> actual code here </script>
where I just add “actual code here” in the block.
But for JS codes like the example I have provided at the top of this thread, the entire code is in the <> tags, how do I add without including the <script> </script>
Another classic example is the McAfee Site Seal trustmark. Here also the entire code is within the <> tags like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.ywxi.net/js/1.js" async></script>
How do I insert these types of code without including <script></script>
Hello,
Please provide a link to your site so we can inspect it./ I assume you use a demo that does not use a background for block titles such as the news magazine demo: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_magazine/ On this demo, the block title background color will only change the underline as there is no color for it by default like there is here: http://screencast.com/t/n3kdlcWjC
Thank you!
Hello,
Wow, great support, I am happy to have bought this theme ! I am ok with post background transparent, this is so cool! the excerpt to, but do not understand for the menu, with my bad english it’s difficult to be understood and to make understand sometimes.
Actually I know for the Block hover, and my categories have differents color (thank for that), but I don’t found how I can do something else, use the same color of my categories for the menu hover. I have my theme color on blue so all my menu is blue like that :

And my category Culture is Red as you can see here :

But on the site The Medium, you can see the hover and the line behind the menu change with the color of block; i would like the same, and as I know its the same theme Newspaper I think i can do the same but i don’t know how.

Thank again !

Hello,
Our theme category pages use the loop.php file to populate the page with posts. This is where you will have to modify the code.
There is an alternative though. You could try to use a block from Visual Composer. There you can use the block settings to sort your posts to your preferred sorting option.
After the block is set use do_shortcode function to echo out the shortcode on that category page. The code must be added in category.php page here: http://screencast.com/t/mIrs3SDaaFez
I hope this helps.
Hello,
1) What you see on themedium’s hover color is not the category color. it;s the block hover color that can be changed from the block settings: http://screencast.com/t/X9vZVNAt
2) Yes, the site in question uses style 4 for posts and a css customization to make the post background transparent. This is a similar code:
.td-post-header-holder.td-image-gradient .td-post-title {
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.7) !important;
padding-left: 10px !important;
padding-bottom: 10px !important;
}
3) The excerpt color can only be changed with css. Use this code:
.td-excerpt{
color:red!important;
}
Thank you!
Hi Bogdan,
Thank you for the response. Yes, I know that the smart list template for the mobile theme is different, though it looks like smart-list 7. and as I wrote above in my reply that, I had also tried to include same code in “td_smart_list_mob_1.php”. Anyways,
I tried to put your code as shown in the image http://screencast.com/t/RtyOwKCaF, but unfortunately, it didn’t work. I again tried to by putting this code like this too ( as we did in do_shortcode option for desktop smart lists version ), but it didn’t work either 🙁
So, here is my two try:
1.
// render the pagination
$buffy .= $this->callback_render_pagination();
$buffy .= '</div>';
$buffy .= td_global_blocks::get_instance(‘td_block_ad_box_mob’)->render(array(‘spot_id’ => ‘content_bottom_mob’));
return $buffy;
}
2.
protected function render_after_list_wrap() {
$buffy = '';
$buffy .= '</div>'; // /.td_smart_list_1 wrapper with id
$buffy .= td_global_blocks::get_instance(‘td_block_ad_box_mob’)->render(array(‘spot_id’ => ‘content_bottom_mob’));
return $buffy;
}
}
What should I do now? Will you please try this.. as it can be really for many of us. Having a “bottom contextual article ads” from Outbrain, content.ad are a necessity these days, and we have 70% visitors on mobile. So…. please
Thank you…
Hello,
It will be way easier to change the block titles color than the links colors as there are many links and the css to target specific links is different and will get very big as the code needs to cover lots of situations where links are involved and there are lots of links on a site. Please switch the theme accent color to the dropcap color and simply use this code in the theme panel->custom css box to change the block titles back to the beige:
.block-title > span, .block-title > a, .block-title > label, .widgettitle, .widgettitle:after, .td-trending-now-title, .td-trending-now-wrapper:hover .td-trending-now-title, .wpb_tabs li.ui-tabs-active a, .wpb_tabs li:hover a, .vc_tta-container .vc_tta-color-grey.vc_tta-tabs-position-top.vc_tta-style-classic .vc_tta-tabs-container .vc_tta-tab.vc_active > a, .vc_tta-container .vc_tta-color-grey.vc_tta-tabs-position-top.vc_tta-style-classic .vc_tta-tabs-container .vc_tta-tab:hover > a, .td-related-title .td-cur-simple-item, .woocommerce .product .products h2, .td-subcat-filter .td-subcat-dropdown:hover .td-subcat-more{
background-color: #e7d38a!important;;
}
Thank you!
Hello,
1) The first issue is a fonts issue that happens when fonts are not loaded from the same source. Usually a cdn server creates this issue. Here is the fix that worked for most users: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/strange-chinese-symbols-replaced-icons-and-arrows/
2) The hover color is determined by the theme accent color oir the block title color you set in visual composer.
the theme accent color: http://screencast.com/t/bZY8Hr9z9w or you can have particular blocks with different hover colors by changing the block title color like so: http://screencast.com/t/pkP16vXwnbyw
Thank you!
Hi,
I tried to change the block headline text background color. Used ‘Title background color:’ option in the block settings.
But it is just changing the under line color of the headline text,not the background color.
Am I doing something wrongly here? or is there anyway to do?
I did change it in WordPress settings but it just does not work
Hello,
Already replied via email.
Your translation as well as any others we have tried loaded on the first try. Each and every translation issue here on this topic was installed by us without encountering any issues on our first try. I suspect there is something blocking the translations from the browser side.
Thank you.
Hello alpsbox,
Yes, if you want to achieve the time ago for your date for modules/blocks you should edit the structure of the module which creates the block. In you case, if the module is 15, you should remove the get_date function and replace it with the human_time_diff. Also, if you want to achieve inside the posts the similar behaviour for your date, you should edit the loop-single core files which correspond with the post template used by you. For example, if you are using the post template style 1 you should edit the loo-single-1.php, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/HaBa7OtR0A
Thanks for the message!
Hello,
The code will not work for the mobile theme as it uses a different smart list and the mobile ads are different from the normal theme ads. The smart list on mobile is not smart list 7 but rather smart list mobile: http://screencast.com/t/vZRVfoRPJVo
It may look similar to smart list 7 but it’s not.
I have not tested this method on the mobile theme. The mobile theme will not render visual composer shortcodes. You will have to take a look at the mobile theme ads implementation and replicate it on the smart list:
Here is the code you need for the mobile theme smart list ad:
$buffy .= td_global_blocks::get_instance('td_block_ad_box_mob')->render(array('spot_id' => 'content_bottom_mob'));
It adds the bottom ad to the smart list. You can place it like so:

Hello Sasser,
Please notice that our blockquote has an own design which has been created by our theme. If you want to change it, you should use a bit of CSS and change these values to bring as you wish, like this ->
The code is ->
.td-post-content blockquote p{
font-size: 15px;
line-height: 20px;
font-weight: normal;
font-style: italic;
text-align: center;
text-transform: capitalize;
color: red;
}
The result is here -> http://screencast.com/t/K0V6UH0S5tbS
Thanks for the message!
Hello newsguru,
Unfortunately, our theme does not have any Block which has these features, sorry! Our list of Blocks you can here -> http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/block-1/ -> http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/slider/ If you want to have these options, you should edit the block yourself but please notice that is not a simple task which involves some custom work. If you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide custom modification at the moment, sorry!
Thanks for your understanding!
