Hello,

Unfortunately this was a design choice and you cannot get the category tag on blocks to receive the color from the theme panel. It can be done with customization and solid php knowledge, but we have no easy solution for it. You will need to hire some help if you really need this customization.

Thank you for your message.

Hi,

We having some problems with Big Slide 1 Homepage and banner in the posts page

1) In home page Big Slide 1 doen’t show properly (Attacchment “HOME PAGE 1-2” with debug error). We tried many times to change slider blocks but the result is the same.

2) If we insert a banner in the top header (728×90) near the logo and another of the same size above Articles, the header displays a 336×280 banner (ATTACHMENT: “BANNER”)

On home page displays fine. Instead in posts page shows what you can see in the screenshot

Please help me solve? The website our costumers is http://www.secondopianonews.com

Hi,

I’m not sure what causes the issue, but you can use this css to position it properly:


@media (max-width:767px){
.menu-top-container{
display:block!important;
}
}

Thanks.

Hello TagDiv,

I would like to know if there is a way to change the way Block 11 looks on Mobile?
Rather than a full-width look, is there a way I can make Block 11 look like Block 8 ONLY on Mobile?

It would complete my site as that is the look I am going for.

Thanks,

Hi

To exclude a specific category from a block you have to use the category id not category name, here is an example: http://screencast.com/t/zPqCw3Sx To get the category id follow this link: http://screencast.com/t/hjxlo3EctF3r
Wen you’re using Visual Composer page-builder the sidebar set in page options will be displayed only on latest article part when page-builder + latest it’s used as a page template: http://screencast.com/t/btNJGCesn
For the part built with Visual Composer you can use a widgetized sidebar block: http://screencast.com/t/xF3RgsR4DASg

For more details about homepage setup and Visual Composer usage please check these links: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-use-visual-composer/https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/

Hello slashedbeauty,

All the thumbs used by the theme are created in td_config.php through API method as you can see here -> http://screencast.com/t/j6v39UycSoH and here -> http://screencast.com/t/DmrlCGPTneU you can see a list where you can know where each kind of thumb is used in the theme. If you want to create your own thumb/block, you have to implement it, according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/td_api_thumbadd/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/td_api_blockadd/ Please notice that is not a simple task and it addresses only for advanced users. If you want to display more levels in our theme and if you are not aware to the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to do this for you because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, sorry!

Thank you for your understanding!

Hi

At the moment the theme does not display ads in smart-list post content. We will include this option in next theme update. Meanwhile to have the article bottom ad displayed in smart-list 2 you can edit the td_smart_list_2.php and add this line of code here: http://screencast.com/t/1baqQWuAvyD

$buffy .= td_global_blocks::get_instance('td_block_ad_box')->render(array('spot_id' => 'content_bottom'));

Thanks!

Hi

I assume that you want to display ads in sidebar on homepage. If you’re using the Visual Composer pagebuilder to build your page then you can use a widgetized sidebar block to display the sidebar on page: http://screencast.com/t/zoEqR16j9tchttp://screencast.com/t/rGVDKJZgcc
If you’re nut using Visual Composer on page then the sidebar can be set from page options: http://screencast.com/t/4xpRcyHbfA

For more details about how to use Visual Composer and homepage setup please check these links: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-use-visual-composer/ https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/

Let us know how it goes and if you need further assistance please provide your site url and more details about your issue and we will get back to you in shortest time.

Thanks!

I followed the directions on how to exclude a particular menu category from a block (place “-” in front of the menu name. For example: -Memes

Unfortunately, this did not work. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Also, The right side bar for the Homepage is not sticking like it should. Where can I enable this? http://www.farcethenation.com

Thanks!

Hi Bogdan –

Thanks for the information about how to implement, but I am a bit confused about which bits of code go where.

Could you please re-iterate your explanation about:

1) which code I copy to have the same comment design as on the post and
2) where I place it in the blocks I want to use

Thanks!

Thanks for getting back to me so quick!

How come the sticky sidebar works when it’s the default sidebar as opposed to a widgetised sidebar block (with Visual Composer deactivated).

I really don’t want to have the Visual Composer plugin active. I normally just have the Shim on and everything has been fine. Why is the sticky sidebar the one thing that needs it even with the Shim / how can I get around this?

Thanks!

Basically create a strategy of the images thumbs you will actually need based on the block sizes actually used, plan to perhaps use more of the same module/block than a whole bunch, then turn off all the image sizes for blocks you’re not using from the theme panel.

Also, trick we use here is making the two smaller sizes in the WP > admin > media the same as the most popular block sizes, which cuts two sizes out of the images also.

Upshot, if you have 5 thumbnail sizes used, you will get 5 thumbs made for each image uploaded.

Also, another trick we use here, for images ONLY placed inside of posts, we just FTP them to our media folder, and then just load them by name in the HTML of the post. 🙂

Is there a way to limit thumbnail generation so that the different thumbnails only generate for featured images instead of each and every photo uploaded? They’re putting a load on my server, but I’m afraid to turn certain sizes off on the chance that I change which blocks I use and then images will be missing.

Hello Vittorio,

If you want to use these Visual Composer elements and you want to have unique posts for each Block/Grid you have two possibilities in order to achieve as you want. First would be to use unique articles option for your page, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/AiRje2Gkoij (the unique articles do not work with pagination but only without it) or you can use offset method for your elements, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/d0v7ZVUAJUQB -> http://screencast.com/t/BKQs54zQCeji -> http://screencast.com/t/bdsx0l3b In both of cases you will not have posts duplicate.

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!

Thank you for the message!

Hello willysawa,

If you want to have a different font and excerpt for your slider to the rest of the site you have to target a specific class for your slider and then put the desired conditions.

The example code for Slider is ->

.td_block_slide .td-module-title a, .td_block_slide .td-excerpt{
font-size:15px;
}

Hope this helps!

If is not what you mean, please provide more details about what exactly you want to achieve.

Thanks.

Hello,
It depends on the block you want to edit. I can provide a css code to remove it from all the blocks but i’m not sure this is what you want.
If you want to remove the title, comments and author in all blocks, please use this code:
.td_block_wrap .entry-title, .td_block_wrap .td-module-meta-info{
display:none!important;
}

Thanks.

Hi,
you can change block titles from block settings. These are accessed either automatically when you add a new block (the settings will pop-up) or by clicking on the little pencil icon here: http://screencast.com/t/yCCnKs4P6
Please note that the default title will not display on any block. You have to change the title from the default one for it to display on the front-end.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

Hello,
I’m not sure what you mean. You can have certain posts only visible from a specific page as you can use a block to filter a specific category that will only show on that particular block if you set it that way, but You cannot have post only accessible from other posts. Sorry. The theme has no such option.
Thank you for your message!

Hello,
If you want to reduce the spacing of block 9, you can use this code :
.td_block_9 .td_module_8{
padding-bottom: 0!important;
margin-bottom: 0!important;
}

But it could provide mixed results as different title lengths will create spaces between articles. That is why the spacing was added in the first place.
Than you!

Hello,
I am aware of the fact that I could manually (and given the fact that a news site is constantly updating pretty much theoretically) hide certain posts or categories form individual modules/ or blocks with images.

but since there are a few nice layout-options I’d like to combine (like for example a big grid2, followed by block 2 and finally a block 21…) I’d like to know if there isn’t such an easy option as a click of a button to make sure that the automatic display of post-teasers isn’t resulting in repeated posts in each block (I’ve seen that as a feature in other themes when I was still searching for the right one and even though Newspaper and VC convinced me completely with the best of several worlds I can’t think of any other solution than a pretty complicated and much into the details of single post-ids digging solution to achieve this on my homepage while wnating to show my latest posts of all categories in different styles).

Am I missing something?
(I hope so!)

Cheers!

Hello Albert,

Unfortunately, our theme does not have such an option to change the design for mobile mode and also, you cannot use the big grid 4 for your mobile mode and the block 18 on your desktop mode. If you want to make additional customizations you have to alter the code from core files and this require custom work. If you want to display more levels in our theme and you are not aware to the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to implement this for you because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry!

Thank you for your understanding!
