Hello EDMSU,

Unfortunately, I do not understand very good what you want to achieve but I assume that you want to add some blocks to your category page. Please notice that our theme does not have such a simple option to customize the category page from the panel but you can do that only through code. In order to achieve this, you have to use the do_shortcode method and is_category() condition to implement this. For more reference about this condition, please check the codex, here -> https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/is_category/ You need to know your category ID, you can get it in this way -> http://screencast.com/t/gsigPgFEVZJs
Before using the do_shortcode method, you have to create the shortcode for the specific item you want to display on your category page. For example, if you want to add the Popular Categories you have to follow the next steps -> http://screencast.com/t/Q7dzh54VILK -> http://screencast.com/t/cnpkgXvIGH and then you have to place this in do_shortcode syntax, like this -> <?php echo do_shortcode('[td_block_popular_categories]');?> After you have created this code you have to place it in category.php like this -> http://screencast.com/t/i2696YG6
Please notice that is not a simple task and if you are not aware of the steps 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 willysawa,

If you want to place your Ad under your related Articles feature for each post, you have to introduce the following code <?php echo do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]');?> in loop file, specific for each post template you are using. For example, if you are using the post template style 1 you have to edit the loop-single-1.php and lace the code under the related articles, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/TWF8DXexGpeg

Thanks.

Hi,
There is also a css alternative for this if you add an extra class to the row in visual composer, then you can target a specific block if you want. You can change the color for each module like so: http://screencast.com/t/Bg8gEdEO
You can do this for every module. Simply change the module number in the code and it will apply to that specific module.
Thank you!

Hi there,

Im trying to claim my url for facebook Instant Articles and have placed the code into the custom HTML as instructed but FB comes back with this error:

The fb:pages tag on the url doesn’t contain this page’s id. The url has fb:pages tag but they don’t have this page’s id. Please work with your developers / webmaster to add this tag to your website.

Instructions are:
Authorize your website to begin publication. To claim your website’s URL, add the following meta tag to your HTML’s <head> tag and specify the URL below. Unsure what URL to use? Learn more about claiming URLs for your Instant Articles.

Can you please advise

Hi, I followed the above and my full-width logo works (style 9). BUT – I would still like to have the Full-block-hover over menu items (not just an underline), how is this possible?
Thank you.

I want to change the titles colour of each module from default to a custom colour.
The only way I see this being possible is by adding a custom css class to the “a href” tag, but I can’t find the place where the link is built nor any other way to change the title colour without changing the titles of all blocks/modules.
Any clues? Thank you.

Hi Guys,

I have noticed that there is no chance to add a side block to show “last article comments”
Do you offer customization service? if not, any recomendation for Newspaper custome development?

Bummer.

Can you point me to where the filtering is setup for the block? I’m going to have to hack in support for this. A static list of posts is no good, content is updated regularly.

I’d be open to making a new block and having it load an alternate class that has been modified to filter on the custom taxonomy. Can you point me to files involved in creating this block for VC and where the query is defined?

Thanks!

Hello,

Thank you for your reply.

1. I have no added plugins active other than the ones you supplied.
2. I have installed your speed booster plugin and activated it.
3. I am using only your default demo and your content with no modifications.
4. The pagespeed insight still gives me terrible readings of 28 for mobile and 32 for desktop.
5. Other themes give me 70-100 for both so clearly the issue isn’t with my hosting.
6. After running pagespeed insight and activating ONLY your plugins, I get the following for mobile:

“Should Fix:
Enable compression
Leverage browser caching
Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
Minify CSS
Consider Fixing:
Prioritize visible content
Minify HTML
Reduce server response time”

For desktop, I get:

“Should Fix:
Enable compression
Leverage browser caching
Minify CSS
Consider Fixing:
Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
Minify HTML
Prioritize visible content
Reduce server response time”

What next?

Now I remarked that visual composer has also problems with word press 4.5
When I want to edit pages (for instance the start page to place an add block) there is no access to visual composer to add elements to the right place. I hope a theme update is coming up soon to fix this problem.

I understand it, Catalin. Thanks for the clarification. So the only thing I can now think of improving is, eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content, Leverage browser caching, Minify CSS and JavaScript.

Just to get your opinion- WPMUDEV has released what they call Hummingbird plugin, which supposedly takes care of this stuff. Do you think it’s safe to use it with this theme?

Hello Socialfeed,

If you want to have this element in your homepage, you have to use Block 4 from Visual Composer. For more information about our blocks, please check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/

Thank you for the message!

Hello,

Unfortunately this error could come from a big number of problems. I believe it happens due to a server configuration which is not responding, it could be due to a delay or it could also be a temporary issue so you can try this a few times and if you still get this error please contact your host provider and let him know about this, ask them to unblock our demo in order to retrieve the theme data. It could also happen due to your wp install or other plugins might also cause this. Also make sure that your permission for the upload folder are set correct. You can check this by trying to upload an image in media library. If the process succeeds then the permission are ok. If not you can use the c-panel to change permissions (set them to 777) or if you do not have access to the cpanel, please contact your hosting provider.
Also make sure you meet the requirements for newspaper: https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/

If you still cannot install the demo, please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can take a look. Please also provide a link to this topic.

Thank you!

Hi

Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches and test again. If the problem persist deactivate lazy load animation from theme panel > template settings: http://screencast.com/t/y8CTxGuyMMu

Thanks!

Hi,
The settings you ask about actually come from the theme and not visual composer as content blocks are created by us so you do not need visual composer support, but theme support :).
Unfortunately the block settings will not filter custom post types with custom taxonomies. The content blocks were created with the standard post type and taxonomy in mind.
I ran a few tests with WPDownload Manager. You can filter the post types themselves and select the ones you want to display inside a block by the post id: http://screencast.com/t/82g7yT4Su, but unfortunately you cannot use the category filter as it will not accept the custom taxonomy. You can filter the post type manually though on each block.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Hello boundary2,

Please take a look over the below explanation and try to understand a bit how it work 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.
If you want to implement another cropping system for your theme and you are not aware of the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to do this for you because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry! Usually, we recommend developers from studio.envato.com.

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!

Thank you for the message!

Hello chewak,

If you want to move to the right the author name and date, you have to use a bit of CSS code to do that. Please try the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom CSS area.

The code is ->

.td_block_big_grid_3 .td-module-meta-info{
text-align: right;
margin-right: 20px;
}

The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/SjfMFY5Yfx

Thanks.

Salutare,

Din tema nu exista astfel de setare dar se poate folosi un cod CSS pe care il poti adauga in theme panel->custom css box:
.td-post-sub-title{
background-color:black!important;
color:white!important;
}

Referitor la block-ul 7, nu stiu exact la ce te referi prin miniaturi dar presupun ca te referi la titlurile posturilor, pentru ca acest tip de block nu are nici excerpt
Acesta este un block 7: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-7/
Te rog ofera mai multe detalii ca sa putem sa iti oferim un raspuns corect.

Multumesc!
