Hello,
Pages can be edited in visual composer and content added or deleted from the page. Please access your page in the back-end and simply delete the blocks you like to remove. Please read these guides to learn how to use visual composer and block settings:

https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
Thank you!
Hi
Please make sure that you update the theme according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ also try to deactivate all plugin except Visual Composer clear all caches then test again. Also I’ve checked your site and noticed that the thumbs are not properly generated for some images. Try to regenerate your thumbnails following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/ and check the site again.
Thanks!

Hi
You can display Instagram block on single posts using do_shortcode function. You have to edit the file corresponding with post template used and ego out the shortcode where you want the have the widget displayed. Here is an example: http://screencast.com/t/sSIJO057X – http://screencast.com/t/CrFJBCbbhB
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_instagram instagram_id="envato" instagram_images_per_row="" instagram_number_of_rows=""][/vc_column][/vc_row]'); ?>
The theme does not have an option to display ads between posts from category pages. To achieve that you’ll need some customizations in theme’s core files. We can’t offer customization services at the moment so if you’re not aware of the steps you need to take in this regard please consider hiring a developer or a freelancer to do this for you.
Thanks!
Hello morty,
Unfortunately, if you want to change the H tag, please notice that you can only change on the general way and cannot in particular for some blocks.
Thaks for your understanding!
Hello,
1)Try the code below and place it in Theme panel->custom CSS area.
The code is ->
.vc_tta.vc_general .vc_tta-tab {
display: inline-block;
}
The result -> http://screencast.com/t/pQGIuc4gnoj
2)Please notice that you will have to filter that block by the desired category, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/1ngh2i0a1z
3)Please notice that our News Magazine uses the Footer style 4 and you can choose this template from footer section in Theme panel, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/0ayd2AvYt5
Also, if you have no success with this customizations, please try to make an NEW-clean install from scratch, with the latest version of the theme (without any untested plugins) and try again to install the News Magazine demo clear all your caches and check the results.
Thanks for your understanding!
Is there any way to change h2 h3 by only a few blocks? In my case it would change by h2 h3 only in block 4.
Greetings.
Hi
We need to hide the below mentioned on the website
1. Homepage – Post date & author name
2. Category Page – Category name, Author Name & Post date
3. Block 9 & 10 – instead of dashes a line is required
Hi
1. Use this css:
.td_block_related_posts .td-related-right {
display:none;
}
2 Use this css:
body{
margin: 0;
}
3. The solution from indicated topic still works, make sure you have deleted the proper code, clear the caches then test again.
4. Use this code:
.td-post-category{
display: none!important;
}
Thanks!
1. So does it mean I can’t just import settings to make everything look the same as in your examples and futher adjustments are required? What I did is pressed import including content.
2. “You need to add grids or blocks to the tab sections in visual composer and make sure you set the block elements to a category that has posts to display.”
That’s how it looks right now https://gyazo.com/11e08489d87b60d7610cb39a6ddcc0ad Would you please advise where do I press to select a proper category
3. “As for the footer, you can set it up to your liking from the theme panel -> footer section” — I’m afraid I didn’t quite get where do I need to click in order to receive completely the same result as in your template
We have a wordpress site and we have installed the latest Newspaper theme but we have a problem.
When we set a row with 3 columns (1/2+1/4+1/4) and add a td_block_16 on first column(1/2) the post appears with div’s class td_module_mx7.This is ok
http://192.185.154.34/~makthes/tagImages/First_casePNG.PNG
Αt the same time we set and another row with 2 columns(3/4+1/4) and add the same block(td_block_16 ),on the first column.in the second case the posts appears with div class=td_module_6.
http://192.185.154.34/~makthes/tagImages/Second_case.PNG
is any way to show the posts in the both cases like the first case?

Hi
You can use a block and set it to display posts by post id. You only have to insert the ids of the posts the you want to be displayed on the front-page here: http://screencast.com/t/UbZpa4mbo To get the post id follow this link: http://screencast.com/t/0oilMM1sX
Hope this help.
Thanks!
Hi
Sorry for the delay.
You can use one of theme’s blocks to display these topics in sidebar but the only sort which will work in this case it’s post id filter: http://screencast.com/t/llA4wnQBnX9 To get the topic’s id follow this link: http://screencast.com/t/0s4TtjVBX
Hope this helps.
Thanks!
Hello stax,
Please notice that our theme does not have such an option as you want. Also, please notice that each block uses a specific thumb which crops the each featured image from your posts.
Please take a look over the below explanation and try to understand a bit how it works the thumbs in the theme. Please check here ->>
Our theme uses the system of cropping from center to top. The theme uses thumbs to reduce the page size and speed up page loading time. From each image uploaded are generated thumbs for each thumb size used by the theme. Basically, when a post it’s displayed on the page in a block, the featured image displayed is not the one which you uploaded in the media file, it’s a thumb cropped from the original image at the precise dimension. To change the picture orientation most likely you will need a different cropping system. We use a WordPress function – add_image_size() – you can read about it here – https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size – and here – http://www.davidtan.org/wordpress-hard-crop-vs-soft-crop-difference-comparison-example/
Our theme crop (cut) thumbnails in some cases to avoid creating a lot of thumbnails in order to reduce to load more spaces on the server.
If you don’t have the possibility to upload large images you could use a combination of plugins to upscale the thumbs – Thumbnail Upscale and Force Regenerate. For more information about these kinds of plugins, please consult their documentation here -> https://wordpress.org/plugins/thumbnail-upscale/ -> https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ Also, please ensure that the functionalities of these plugins are not affected by the other untested plugins that could create interference through the theme. Please notice that these types of plugins are not tested with our theme and we cannot provide support for the theme. We recommend them because a lot of our customer uses and they were satisfied to their functionality.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi
The theme chose a specific size fore the featured image depending by post template used and td_681x0 it’s a parameter sent to get_image() function which is located in td_module_single_base.php: http://screencast.com/t/TPChDS6QNI
When a image it’s uploaded the theme generate a new thumb for each size enabled from theme panel > thumbs on modules and blocks: http://screencast.com/t/RkKPz6IJTiib That thumbs are stored in uploads folder which is located in WordPress’s core. The theme does not set a specif link for the images, it only chose which image will be displayed in a specif place.
Thanks!
Hello ETm,
Please check the mobile files from your root theme and there you will find the shortcodes document which contains this block which is used in mobile theme, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/2dn2HGdbO
Thanks for your understanding!
Thank you for your help Andrei, the code work very well.
One problem with out contents is that we have some sensitive categories that we don’t want to show the blocks and infinite load on the single page. Here is the code
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column width="2/3"][td_block_2 custom_title="Hoa Kỳ" category_id="61" limit="6" ajax_pagination="next_prev"][td_block_2 custom_title="Little Saigon" category_id="64" limit="6" ajax_pagination="next_prev"][td_block_2 custom_title="Việt Nam" category_id="66" limit="6" ajax_pagination="next_prev"][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row]'); ?>
<?php
$category_detail=get_the_category($td_mod_single->post->ID);//$post->ID
foreach($category_detail as $cd){
$cat_name = $cd->cat_ID;
}
$exclude_current_post = $td_mod_single->post->ID;
echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column width="2/3"][td_block_13 post_ids="'. -$exclude_current_post .'" category_id="' . $cat_name . '" limit=""][/vc_column][/vc_row]');
?>
Can you please show me how I can exclude those categories out. Example: Cat ID = 1, 2, 3, 4.
Thank you for your support I really appreciated.

Hey guys,
I’m a bit of a noob with css, but I try 🙂
I added a newsletter sign up box on my homepage for the mobile theme. It looks good, but there it is aligned with the latest post below. I would like it to be full width, just like the featured posts are.
What custom css could I use to achieve this? It would be great if you could point me in the right direction. Below the custom CSS (I copy-pasted it from regular page):
#mc_embed_signup input.email {
display: block;
padding: 6px 0;
/*margin: 0 40% 15px 0;*/
margin: auto;
/*margin-bottom: 15px;*/
text-indent: 5px;
width: 70%;
min-width: 80px;
/*margin-left: 1px;*/
line-height: 14px;
border-radius: 5px;
}
#mc_embed_signup {
background: #669fb7;
clear: left;
font: 14px;
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
border-radius: 10px;
margin-top: 11px;
}
#mc_embed_signup input.button {
display: block;
margin-bottom: 11px;
margin: auto;
width: 40%;
}
#mc_embed_signup .button {
clear: both;
background-color: #3b5998;
border: 0 none;
border-radius: 4px;
color: white;
font-size: 15px;
font-weight: bold;
height: 34px;
line-height: 31px;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
text-decoration: none;
vertical-align: top;
white-space: nowrap;
max-width: 400px;
}
#mc_embed_signup input {
border: 1px solid grey;
-webkit-appearance: none;
}
#mc_embed_signup form {
display: block;
position: relative;
text-align: left;
padding: 20px 0 8px 0%;
}
#mc_embed_signup label {
display: block;
font-size: 16px;
padding-bottom: 5px;
font-weight: bold;
color: white;
margin-right: 10px;
}
Some time ago I posted a question on here trying to figure out how to remove AdSense on individual posts. I have figured out how to do it with the help of some online forums. However, I need someone’s help here at tag div to tell me where to implement the code.
After placing this code in the Newspaper-child/parts/header/ads.php right above the /head tag I am able to add individual post id’s like such.
<?php Global $ad_flg; $ad_flg=1; ?>
<?php $adsense_blck_post = array(7130); ?>
<?php if (in_array($post->ID,$adsense_blck_post,true)) $ad_flg=0; ?>
>>> http://postimg.org/image/4v4accd8r/
Now, to alter indivudal ad spots. I surrounded:
<?php
global $adsense_flag;
if($adsense_flag!=0) {
echo td_global_blocks::get_instance('td_block_ad_box')->render(array('spot_id' => 'post_style_12'));
}
?>
>>> http://postimg.org/image/tx9j3xoqz/
I just need to know where to find the rest of the code implementation. I’ve found the header and footer ad, smart lists ads, and ads on individual posts. However, I’m looking for the Article_top_ad and article inline ad. Could someone point me in the right direction.
Thanks!
